slow Perl on CentOS 5
by Florin Andrei 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

If your Perl apps are unusually slow on CentOS 5, have a look at this blog: http://blog.vipul.net/2008/08/24/redhat-perl-what-a-tragedy/ In a nutshell: some Perl apps are 100x slower on RedHat / CentOS 5 compared to other distributions.

CentOS automount 99% CPU utilization -- NFSv3 vs NFSv4?
by Blond Beer 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

I have several CentOS 5.2 workstations in a Sun Solaris NIS domain and Solaris NFS servers (all Solaris 8). Frequently the auto mounter hangs with very high utilization -- I think it might be due to the Solaris 8 servers only using NFSv3 and the CentOS wanting to use NFSv4. How can I set the system to use NFSv3 globally, even for auto mount maps from my ancient Solaris NIS domain (which I wold like to upgrade, but that's another story...)

Run a more recent kernel than 2.6.18 on CentOS?
by Niki Kovacs 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

Hi, Usually I'm not one to complain about "old" version of the CentOS kernel and/or software, since I appreciate CentOS' stability. So this might be the exception that confirms the rule. I've been jumping through several burning loops these past days to configure my little MSI Wind netbook, and I'm currently considering going for a more recent kernel. There's no way the Ralink driver for the wireless card will build on an older kernel than 2.6.22, apparently. I'm prepared to do some tinkering, but in the meanwhile, can you give some basic recommendations or caveats? This is not our production database server, so it's not a big deal if it's a little bit less stable. What i naively plan to do: get a kernel SRPM from Fedora 9, try to build from there, and see where it leads. I think I'm going to give it a shot in VirtualBox first. But then, maybe one of you has already gone that path and can tell me if I have to expect something trivial or an experience of the hair-pulling type. Cheers, Niki PS: with similar requests, folks usually suggest I run Fedora. So let me state: I like CentOS. I don't want to run Fedora.

buying the right cpu fan
by Craig White 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

(I sent this yesterday but it never made it through) I've got a remote system where I think I need to replace the CPU fan. in the output of dmidecode, I get... Processor Information Socket Designation: CPU 1 Type: Central Processor Family: <OUT OF SPEC> Manufacturer: Intel ID: 47 0F 00 00 FF FB EB BF Version: Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.66GHz Voltage: 1.4 V External Clock: 133 MHz Max Speed: 2666 MHz Current Speed: 2666 MHz is this enough to tell me what kind of fan I need to get? It's obvious it's a Pentium IV. What other command/what other command might I be able to run to parse in order to get information so I get the right CPU fan? Craig

Setting VNC console port in virt-install
by David Dyer-Bennet 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Using Centos 5.2 with Xen. I'm making a group of nodes behind an LVS load-director to perform computing services. Those nodes are only accessible from the LVS nodes (I'm using LVS NAT mode). Actually it's Xen virtual servers on the physical nodes behind the LVS boxes that I'm mostly concerned with. When you create a guest with virt-install, there's a vnc param and a vncport param, but setting vncport doesn't seem to cause the vnc console to actually appear on the specified port. The config file written by virt-install in /etc/xen doesn't contain the vnc port information. How do I control what port the VNC console is presented on? I need to make these appear at stable port numbers, because to make the systems manageable from outside the LVS, I'm going to create tunnels on the LVS that go to specific system consoles. To set that up obviously the destination ports need to be somehow known, and since they're on different systems, anything other than simply configuring them to be in stable places is going to get complicated and hence unreliable. (The people maintaining the software on the systems behind the LVS won't be the same people in charge of the LVS, and some of them won't even know anything about Linux or Xen, just Windows.) Yes, I also asked on the Xen list; not sure how much what I see as Xen is actually basic Xen and how much is Centos, and the documentation I'm using to do this is all the Centos stuff so I figured I should ask here. -- David Dyer-Bennet, dd-b(a)dd-b.net; http://dd-b.net/ Snapshots: http://dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/data/ Photos: http://dd-b.net/photography/gallery/ Dragaera: http://dragaera.info

please help LVM totally messed up
by Rudi Ahlers 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hi all I accidentally deleted a LVM volume directly (rm /dev/System/newcpanel) and now my LVM's are all messed up. I have a snapshot from one of the other LVM's, as follows lvcreate -s -n newcpanel /dev/System/wiseguy -L10G But, instead of running lvremove /dev/System/newcpanel I ran rm /dev/System/newcpanel ( I don't know why) So, now I have waisted space on my server, and I can't remove the original LVM either. root@saturn /]# lvremove /dev/System/wiseguy_rootimg /dev/System/wiseguy_rootimg: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error /dev/mapper/wiseguy_rootimg1: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error /dev/mapper/wiseguy_rootimg2: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error /dev/mapper/wiseguy_rootimg3: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error Can't remove logical volume "wiseguy_rootimg" under snapshot root@saturn /]# lvscan /dev/System/wiseguy_rootimg: read failed after 0 of 4096 at 0: Input/output error /dev/mapper/wiseguy_rootimg1: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error /dev/mapper/wiseguy_rootimg2: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error /dev/mapper/wiseguy_rootimg3: read failed after 0 of 2048 at 0: Input/output error ACTIVE '/dev/System/root' [10.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/swap' [4.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/pluto' [50.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/home' [10.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/data' [20.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/andrew_vmswap' [1.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/andrew_rootimg' [5.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/keith_vmswap' [1.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/keith_rootimg' [5.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/12_vmswap' [1.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE '/dev/System/12_rootimg' [5.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE Original '/dev/System/wiseguy_rootimg' [10.00 GB] inherit ACTIVE Snapshot '/dev/System/oldcpanel' [10.00 GB] inherit -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers
