logrotate with only one SIGHUP for two log paths
by Martin Hamant 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Hi, Not easy to write a quick subject about why i'm going to ask you ! I'm trying to rotate logs from an unique service (ie. apache) but located in two different locations; /var/log/httpd/ and /data/log/web/ I want /var/log/httpd/* to stay as it comes with the distribution and do a specific rotation configuration for logs in the second path /data/log/web/* The first idea is to create an additional logrotate file called for example /etc/logrotate.d/httpd-custom like this: /data/log/web/* { ...(specific configuration, compress & co)... sharedscript postrotate /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/httpd.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true } Problem : if both /data/log/web/* and /var/log/httpd/* is going to be rotated, TWO SIGHUP will be issued : i don't like this (I have bad experience with...) So here is my question : is it possible to do a similar configuration with only ONE SIGHUP if a rotation happen on one log ? Thank you ! -- Martin

RHEL4 - which yum version?
by Florin Andrei 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

I'm looking at this document to convert RHEL4 systems to Yum and setup an updates repository. http://sial.org/howto/yum/ Which version of yum would you recommend for that? What would be the dependencies that need to be installed? Any guidelines for installing Yum on RHEL4 without breaking the RPM dependencies and stuff (and with minimal changes to the system)? The document recommends yum-2.0.7, but that's pretty old, I guess. -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/

Something is writing a log
by Robert Moskowitz 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

I can just be sittting, doing nothing, and I hear the sound of my hardrive head moving. Just every so often. Like some process is writing a log. I have looked in /var/log and do see occational updates to acpi and messages, but that does not account for all the clicks. Is there somewhere else to look for logs? I would really like to know what process has something to remember.....

EXT3 fs error on RAID1 device
by Rasmus Back 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Hi all. I have a Dell SC440 running Centos 4.4. It has two 500GB disks in a RAID1 array using linux software raid (md1 is / and md0 is /boot). Recently the root file system was remounted read-only for some reason. The logs don't show anything unusual, presumably the file system was read-only before anythng was logged. Running dmesg showed this error repeated many times: EXT3-fs error (device md1) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted Before rebooting the system I checked the raid array status with cat /proc/mdstat and mdadm. No errors were shown. When rebooting the system I let fsck do a check of the file systems. It reported several errors and I let it fix them. The thing that's bothering me is I can't find any reason for the EXT3 error. Nothing seems to be wrong with the array or the hardware. I also noticed a few worrying messages while booting up and shutting down. On boot-up mdamd complains that super-minor should only be declared once and then there's a message that File descriptor 21 is open. On shutdown there are messages that md0 and md1 are in immediate safe mode and that md1 is till in use. Is my system totally hosed or can I ignore these warnings? Thanks, Rasmus

Centos 3.6 or 3.7 CD isos x86_64
by Simpson, Kenneth 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Hi - can someone please tell me where I can find Centos 3.6 or Centos 3.7 for x86_64? On the mirrors, there are directories labeled 3.6 and 3.7 but it's appears to be a lie. All the directories on the mirrors appear to be linked to 3.8 (and hence are mislabeled.) Thanks! -- Ken

Tape drive recommendations
by Mailing Lists 30 Mar '07

30 Mar '07

Hello all. I have 15 or so CentOS servers (now v4.4, I will upgrade them all to 5 when it comes out) and a few windows machines. I am looking to implement a network backup solution using Amanda. I will be backing up 200 gig or so to start, but that will grow. Does anyone have any recommendations on tape drives that will work "out of the box" with CentOS? Thanks, Joe
