Root fs suddenly goes r/o
by Eduardo Grosclaude 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

Out of the blue, dmesg on my HP Proliant w/ a SCSI disk gives loads of messages like this one: EXT3-fs error (device dm-0) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted Then the root fs goes read-only, so little else can be done on the machine. LVM locks up. At restart, fs needs a reboot to recover after fsck. The host starts up ok, then I am given some more minutes before the problem reappears. This is stock CentOS 4.4, never have gotten to update it because of this very same problem. System logs say SCSI I/O error, but SMART says no problem has been found, neither does badblocks (run from a rescue CD bootup). SCSI cabling, terminator, etc has been checked. What should I investigate next? Is the disk condemned? TIA -- Eduardo Grosclaude Universidad Nacional del Comahue Neuquen, Argentina

11 Jul '07

I am soon going to be setting up a box to run VMware server but have to make the choice between Centos 4.x or 5.x.. I have tested both and VMware installs in both.. So are there any pros or cons to either version or does it make no difference at all? TIA

latest Asterisk on CentOS 5 64 bit ?
by Florin Andrei 10 Jul '07

10 Jul '07

I will install CentOS 5 x86_64 on my home server. Among other things, that machine will run Asterisk with an analog card connected to my analog phone line, sort of a home-brewed PBX with VoIP capabilities. The latest Asterisk version as of now is 1.4.7.1 I am trying to find RPM packages for CentOS 5 but so far no luck. The best site so far is this: http://djflux.net/rpms/fedora/6/ It's Fedora 6 so it may recompile on CentOS 5. Anyone else using recent Asterisk versions on CentOS 5 64 bit? Where did you get your packages from? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
