Thank you for that Nico. >>> Nico Kadel-Garcia 01/12/11 4:27 PM >>> On Wed, Jan 12, 2011 at 4:18 PM, Lisandro Grullon wrote: > Hi Sven, > I like your line "This software is really crap!"

The last time I was given a choice, I used rsnapshot to back up to cheap, live disks with snapshots for NFS based file recovery, and Amanda to back up last snapshots to tape. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Only thing I can think is if there's a lot of activity on the disks, with many, many gigs of files added or deleted. mark

RAID configuration suggestion???
by mcclnx mcc 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

we have several DELL R900 with PERC 6/E adapter in it. R900 using Redhat Linux. Each R900 have two PERC 6/E adapter and at least two MD1000 connect to it. Configuration 1: PERC 6/E -- two MD1000 PERC 6/E -- empty Configuration 2: PERC 6/E -- MD1000 PERC 6/E -- MD1000 Normally first MD1000 for database and second MD1000 for nightly backup. My co-worker told me there is NO difference on performance or battery life on botn configurations. I would like listen to your opinion on follwoing: 1. which configuration have better performance? 2. put two MD1000 on same PERC 6/E adapter will cause battery life shorter? 3. other comment? Thanks.

ext4 or XFS
by aurfalien＠gmail.com 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

Hi all, I've a 30TB hardware based RAID array. Wondering what you all thought of using ext4 over XFS. I've been a big XFS fan for years as I'm an Irix transplant but would like your opinions. This 30TB drive will be an NFS exported asset for my users housing home dirs and other frequently accessed files. - aurf

Bonding performance question
by lhecking＠users.sourceforge.net 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

I have a Dell server with four bonded, gigabit interfaces. Bonding mode is 802.3ad, xmit_hash_policy=layer3+4. When testing this setup with iperf, I never get more than a total of about 3Gbps throughput. Is there anything to tweak to get better throughput? Or am I running into other limits (e.g. was reading about tcp retransmit limits for mode 0). The iperf test was run with iperf -s on the server, and iperf -c server on four clients connected to the same switch. ------------------------------------------------------------ Server listening on TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 85.3 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 4] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.184 port 48588 [ 5] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.187 port 49231 [ 6] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.188 port 53197 [ 7] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.189 port 55309 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 941 Mbits/sec [ 5] 0.0-10.0 sec 872 MBytes 728 Mbits/sec [ 6] 0.0-10.0 sec 318 MBytes 267 Mbits/sec [ 7] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 939 Mbits/sec [ 8] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.184 port 48589 [ 4] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.187 port 49234 [ 5] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.188 port 38864 [ 6] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.189 port 55311 [ 8] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 941 Mbits/sec [ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 862 MBytes 721 Mbits/sec [ 5] 0.0-10.0 sec 322 MBytes 270 Mbits/sec [ 6] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 939 Mbits/sec --------------------------------------------------------------- This message and any attachments may contain Cypress (or its subsidiaries) confidential information.

parted usage
by aurfalien＠gmail.com 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

Hello again, Been an interesting day. I'm attempting to use parted to create a partition on a 28TB volume which consists of 16x2TB drives configuired in a Raid 5 + spare, so total unformatted size is 28TB to the OS.. However upon entering parted, and making a gpt label, print reports back as follows; Model: Areca ARC-1680-VOL#000 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 2199GB Sector Size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Why is the disk reporting ~2TB? Should I be using another partitioning tool for such a large volume? - aurf

I am trying to plug a USB 2 device in a USB 3 slot. Nothing is being detected in "lsusb". Is there something special I need to do? I am running centos 5.5 x86_64. I thought 3.0 was backward compatible. Nothing special about my device its an RS232 to USB device. It works in 2.0 slot. Thanks, Jerry
