Adding RAM
by Matt 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

I have a server running Centos 4.7 32bit. Will moving from 4Gig of RAM to 8Gig do any good? Since its 32bit I assume it will only be able to address the first 4Gig not? When I installed CentOS I did not do anything special to enable using more then 4Gig if thats required. Exim, spamassassin and Clamd seem to be the biggest load on this machine. My biggest bottle neck is disk I/O anyway. Wish I had installed CentOS 5.x 64bit way back when but some of the software I was using at time listed support for it as beta. Matt

nfs slow?
by Davide Cittaro 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hi all, I'm migrating from Gentoo to CentOS... I'm experiencing a rather low performance in NFS r/w (as client). NFS server is solaris (which exports zfs volumes via nfs). The very same exports were mounted with the same parameters (auto,nosuid,exec) on gentoo and centos server (bot x86_64)... It happens that centos is 5-10 times slower either in read and write operations... Ok, I'll try to tune rsize and wsize, but does anybody have an hint on this low performance? Thanks d Davide Cittaro davide.cittaro(a)ifom-ieo-campus.it

cpuspeed problems with 5.2 and 2.6.18-92.1.18 kernel revision
by ArcosCom Linux User 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

After upgrade my laptop, I discovered a low performance on it. The laptop is a 2,73GHz Intel centrino and from some kernels versions to now, it had a good performance, the cpu scaling worked fine. Now, I discover that forcing in /etc/sysconfig/cpuspeed the governors and/or max/min speeds, it don't want to run more quickly. The laptop boots fine with the correct speed (usual speed), but when the init scripts run the service cpuspeed, the performance goes low: Only wants 800MHz!! Yes, I played with the documentation and the values on it, but the problem began before I touch them. I discovered the problem after upgrade the kernel (some weeks ago). Its very curious that if I power off/on or reboot the laptop, the next boot is with low speed, but if I power off, wait for 10 minutes, and power on again, the laptop boots at normal speed but when cpuspeed service goes up, the speed goes to low. I can't change the speed using gnome or manually writing to /sys/devices/cpu/cpu0/ system files. Has anybody got any problem as this? How to solve or work around (running an old kernel is an option)? Has any relationship with gnome cpuspeed monitor or any gnome component? Thanks Regards

RAID 1 Post Install
by Hal Martin 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hello all, I've got CentOS 5.2 installed on an old Pentium III server. The server is used by a club at my school, and they are rapidly running out of room on the internal IDE drives that are configured in software RAID 1. I have a Silicon Image SATA controller in the server, and I was planning on adding two more SATA hard drives to the computer. Is there a GUI like Disk Druid for initializing hard drives in software RAID 1 *after* the system has been installed? Thanks, Hal

OT: Ping failed
by Jun Salen 18 Dec '08

18 Dec '08

Hi, The Ping service in Nagios has "unknown" status which was previously OK, this happens after i messed up some of the files owner and accidentally change it to Apache. Although I restored most of the file permission back to Root, the problem above still appears which I suspect is due to permission. Does anybody have idea where to look at.

Hi all, I've installed CentOS 5.2 i386 (with all updates) on notebook Fujutsu Siemens Esprimo U9200 Suspending works normal, but after resuming my system crashes. There are no messages about that in /var/log/messages, only after reboot system I see in gnome: " Resume Problem Your system did not appear to resume correctly from Suspend/Hibernate.

yum udpate not getting new kernel
by Robert Moskowitz 17 Dec '08

17 Dec '08

On one notebook (so far), I have not picked up the new kernel: kernel-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.i686.rpm I have gotten it on some notebooks. So far the only difference I can see between the systems that MIGHT matter is those that got the update were new installs and had not reached 3 installed kernels. The one that failed already had 3 kernels in /boot. But I seem to recall this was about how many to keep in /boot, not when to stop receiving them....

vim helpfile tag issues
by Spiro Harvey 17 Dec '08

17 Dec '08

Just wondering if anyone can replicate this issue.... On CentOS 5.2, using vim 7.0.237, I'm having a consistent issue across all my centos boxen. if I try and access the help files direct (as root), such as ":help tutor" I get: "usr_01.txt.gz" [readonly][noeol][converted] 11L, 4393C E434: Can't find tag pattern Press ENTER or type command to continue If I press enter, it shows me what appears to be the output of a binary. looking at that top line, it appears as if the help files are compressed, and it can't read the tags within them. Is there a satellite package I need to unpack or enable the ability for vim to decipher these? If I just type ":help" the status line reads: "help.txt" [readonly] 214L, 7883C which is ok, and the text file is displayed correctly. Under Fedora 9, doing a ":help tutor" works correctly, and the status line reads: "usr_01.txt.gz" [readonly][noeol] 11L, 2914C Note the different tag on the centos boxen "[converted]".. Also, /usr/share/vim/vimxx/doc/ seem to be pretty similar (given that Fed9 is vim7.1 and CentOS is 7.0).... even the tags file looks ok on both ends: Fed9: $ grep tutor tags sql-completion-tutorial sql.txt.gz /*sql-completion-tutorial* tutor usr_01.txt.gz /*tutor* vimtutor usr_01.txt.gz /*vimtutor* CentOS 5.2: # grep tutor tags sql-completion-tutorial sql.txt.gz /*sql-completion-tutorial* tutor usr_01.txt.gz /*tutor* vimtutor usr_01.txt.gz /*vimtutor* -- Spiro Harvey Knossos Networks Ltd 021-295-1923 www.knossos.net.nz
