If the MTBF's are the same, then the Performance specs you provided are what one needs to go with, when choosing components. If Google has posted Failure rates, for the drives they use, that would be more meaningful than MTBF by the drive manufacturer, for that particular drive model. Questions: Is it your belief that all PATA/SATA/SCSI drives made by one manufacturer have the same MTBF? (I find that hard to believe. However, that might be the case.....) Also, is it your belief that these drives, made by different manufacturers, all have the same MTBF? >Who says? You? I like to have an online offsite RAID backup server. Is >there an ONE TRUE WAY OF BACKUP? No. Obviously, there is no one true way of backup. Everyone's needs are different. Your online off site RAID backup server is one way. Backups *must* be off site, in the event of a catastrophic problem. Thank you, for sharing your time and knowledge with the list! Lanny

Hotplug on CentOS 5
by Rodrigo Barbosa 17 May '07

17 May '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 As some of you might have noticed, CentOS 5 doesn't ship with hotplug (linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net) Things get handled directly by HAL, as far as I can tell. This is ok as long as you are using gnome/kde. However, on a TUI box, or when you are running another WM (I use IceWM here), you can't count o HAL. Actually, HAL (as shipped on CentOS 5) doesn't even have fstab-sync anymore. Anyway, the interface for /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug is pretty simple and straighforward. Coding something to handle just the devices I use is very easy. However, I'm actually considering building and using hotplug on CentOS 5. Anyone has tried it yet ? Any word of advice, or other mathods of handling this situation ?

Make Raid1 2nd disk bootable?
by Les Mikesell 16 May '07

16 May '07

On earlier versions of Centos, I could boot the install CD in rescue mode, let it find and mount the installed system on the HD even when it was just one disk of RAID1 partitions (type=FD). When booting from the centos5 disk the attempt find the system gives a box that says 'You don't have any Linux partitions'. At the bottom of the screen there is something that says: cl->raidtype=5 rd_type=1 <TAB><Alt-Tab> between elements cl->raidtype=5 rd_type=1 <F12> next screen But there is no way to access the bottom part. If I hit the OK button and get a shell I can mount the partitions myself, but then when I chroot to the mounted system there are no devices in /dev. What's the right way to install grub on what was /dev/sdb in the original install but is now the only disk and moved to /dev/sda? The old /dev/sda is no longer there.... -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

What is the equivelent "selinux-policy-targeted-sources" package in CentOS 5? It was available in 4.4. Thanks for any help. -- Jiann-Ming Su "I have to decide between two equally frightening options.

NFS /home freezes.
by Jean Figarella 16 May '07

16 May '07

My old nfs server was an old dual Xeon machine running debian. Everything worked fine. Then I switched over to a new Penguin Computer Altus 2600 (if Im not mistaken) with two Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2210 and 4GB of ram. CentOS4.4 is running on it. Now here is the thing, this nfs server is exporting "/home" and all workstations mount the /home dir via fstab. Ever since I switched to this new server running CentOS4.4 everyone on the network gets 5-20 second freezes sporadically trough the day. In other words if I am browsing the net using Firefox, because all the user's options and cache are stored on ~/.firefox, it freezes for the 5 to 20 seconds at a time. After running some test, this happens when big chunks of file are being copied via nfs to the server. So as an example if user1 has a 700Mb iso image in /tmp and he decides to copy this to his home dir (for whatever reasons, this is not important), every user in the network will experience 5 to 20 seconds freezes while the file is being copied. Now if the same file is being scp-ed to the same user's home dir on the server, the freezes do not happen. Now I have tried many different nfs server options and other nfs client options. I also set up a test nfs server with centos4 and 5 where I am the only user, and while copying big chunks of date, nfs freezes (hangs) too. Here is my /etc/exports: /home *domain.com(rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check,no_wdelay) Here is how client workstations mount the export in the fstab fshome:/home /home/ nfs rsize=8192,wsize=8192,intr 0 0 Am I mis-configuring the nfs server of clients? Is there anything I am not doing right? If anybody has any suggestions, I would appreciate it very much. Thanks, Jean Figarella.
