udev - by-id
by first last 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

Hi, I am trying to set up a CentOS 4 machine with various iSCSI mounts for Oracle, but devices keep on moving around, causing the mounts to fail while called by the sd[a-f] names. We thought about using labels, but, as some of the partitions do not use EXT3, that was discarded, so we thought about using udev and by-id. The problem is that udev does not seem to create the by-id folder or any files within it, while the by-path all get created. The rules file, 51-by-id.rules contains details for the both of them, but the by-id do not get detected, at least the logs don't indicate so. The current contents of the rules file is as follows: KERNEL="dasd*[!0-9]", PROGRAM="/sbin/dasd_id", SYMLINK="disk/by-id/ccw-%c" KERNEL="dasd*[0-9]", PROGRAM="/sbin/dasd_id", SYMLINK="disk/by-id/ccw-%c-part%n" SYMLINK="disk/by-id/scsi-%c" SYMLINK="disk/by-id/scsi-%c-part%n" KERNEL="sd*", PROGRAM="/sbin/path_id", SYMLINK="disk/by-path/%c" KERNEL="hd*", PROGRAM="/sbin/path_id", SYMLINK="disk/by-path/%c" KERNEL="dasd*", PROGRAM="/sbin/path_id", SYMLINK="disk/by-path/%c" KERNEL="sd*", PROGRAM="/sbin/scsi_id", SYMLINK="disk/by-id/scsi-%c" Any help will be appreciated.

2.6.22.1 on CentOS 4.5, No tty0?
by Hawk Xu 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

Hi! I compiled 2.6.22.1 kernel on my CentOS 4.5 box, during boot up, rc.sysinit complains cannot find /dev/tty0 to get keymap (line 294), and I cannot login to the box via ssh, the passwd authentication do pass, but no console opened, ssh just hangs, and "ps ax" on the CentOS box shows "sshd@notty". There are only these ttys: crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 5, 0 2007-07-12 /dev/tty crw--w---- 1 root tty 4, 1 7月 12 14:49 /dev/tty1 crw------- 1 root root 4, 2 7月 12 14:48 /dev/tty2 crw------- 1 root root 4, 3 7月 12 14:48 /dev/tty3 crw------- 1 root root 4, 4 7月 12 14:48 /dev/tty4 crw------- 1 root root 4, 5 7月 12 14:48 /dev/tty5 crw------- 1 root root 4, 6 7月 12 14:48 /dev/tty6 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-07-12 /dev/tty7 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-07-12 /dev/tty8 and "ps ax" shows: 3881 tty1 S+ 0:00 ssh localhost 3882 ? Ss 0:00 sshd: root@notty any idea? Best regards, hao

RPM Build Question
by Clint Dilks 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

Hi People, I have just started building my own RPMS on both Fedora and CentOS and generally things have gone well. Currently I am trying to create RPMS for some commercial software that we have purchased. Step 1 was install the software using its JAVA Based installer ensuring that all files were installed into a particular directory in /usr/local. Step 2 was create a tar file of the resulting files Step 3 Turn this tar file into an RPM using the following spec file Name: mathematica Version: 6.0 Release: 1%{?dist} Summary: Mathematica Group: Development/Tools License: Commercial URL: http://www.wolfram.com/ Source0: mathematica.tar.bz2 BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n) AutoReqProv: no #BuildRequires: #Requires: %description Long recognized as the world's most powerful mathematical software system #%prep #%build %install rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT mkdir -p $RPM_BUILD_ROOT cd $RPM_BUILD_ROOT tar xvjf $RPM_SOURCE_DIR/mathematica.tar.bz2 %clean rm -rf $RPM_BUILD_ROOT %files /usr/local/ %defattr(-,root,root,-) %doc %changelog * Wed Jul 11 2007 SCMS, Waikato University Initial RPM release - Clint Dilks When testing the install phase I use the following command QA_RPATHS=$[ 0x0002 ] rpmbuild -bi mathematica.spec This completes but this message is displayed prelink: /var/tmp/mathematica-6.0-1fc6-root-{user}-/usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/6.0/SystemFiles/Libraries/Linux/libPHANToMIO.so.4: at least one of file's dependencies has changed since prelinking If I ignore this and build the RPM completely using rpmbuild -ba mathematica.spec an RPM is created but when I try and install this it fails because the MD5 Sum of the file mentioned above is not correct. Anyone have any idea how to stop the prelink change that is causing the problem ? I assume its a directive similiar to %define __os_install_post %{nil} but I'm unsure exactly what I should be turning off. Thanks Clint

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

4 or 5 for VMware server?
by WipeOut 11 Jul '07

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
