EXT3-fs error (devive dm-0) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
by Alfred von Campe 03 Aug '06

03 Aug '06

My recently installed CentOS 4.3 system (which is the kickstart server for other systems -- see other thread) is currently hung. I can ping it, but can't do much of anything else. When I switch to one of the virtual consoles, I can briefly see the "login:" prompt, but then that window immediately fills with up with the following message: EXT3-fs error (devive dm-0) in start_transaaction: Journal has aborted This is displayed over and over again. I used the default (automatic) partitioning scheme, so the root file system is an ext3 partition on a logical volume that spans most of the disk (everything except for the swap partition and /boot). Anyone else seen this? Any ideas as to what would cause this? I'll be rebooting the system shortly... Alfred

Hi, Alfred von Campe wrote on Wed, 2 Aug 2006 09:34:06 -0400 > It's time to resurrect this thread from way back in June. I suspect this is more of a HW problem rathan a SW one. About two years ago I had a similar EXT3 fs failure case to develop on a server running Mandrake Linux. My case was due to the fact that this desktop Linux computer had two HDs, where one of them (a Quamtum, top unit on the stack) got overheated because of the heat emitted by the bottom unit (a Maxtor). I tried using a recue CD disk to fix the data errors and limped along for approximately three months. But I but did not manage to pin down the problem till the top HD eventually died and noticed that it was burning hot! So, open the box while it is still running now and feel around to find if something is wrong. - Nobu Toge

DNS Server and SQL backend

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I think most people here use BIND as their DNS server of choise. I just happen to have updated DLZ patch for the current bind version.

So it wouldn't work with my HW, which was brand new and built around 3Ware SATA cards. HTH Mark

Open Source NAS/NFS solution
by Tom Brown 02 Aug '06

02 Aug '06

Hi Has anyone got any ideas on a nfs/nas appliance that i can install on x86 hardware with a few JBOD shelves attached to it. I would like an appliance like install and based on CentOS would be great. I really like the look of www.openfiler.com but it seems to be only in RC release stage so i don't think the 'boss' would like that idea. thanks

Netgear FA312 Wake-on-Lan problem
by Steve Campbell 02 Aug '06

02 Aug '06

I have just noticed what appears to be a problem with my CentOS 3.7 servers shutting down. I have Netgear FA312 NICs in some of my DELL PowerEdge 700 servers and this particular NIC has WOL ability. I cannot turn this off in the BIOS or limit the error responses. When I do a "halt", the server goes only as far as closing the ethernet card and stops, resulting in a hardboot being necessary. I guess this is not an error, as it indicates it is staying awake for WOL, but I don't have it plugged in to the motherboard. Does anyone have a clue as to how I should disable this stuff to allow a clean shutdown? (without the need to replace the type of NIC, which is the next solution) Thanks Steve Campbell campbell(a)cnpapers.com Charleston Newspapers

I have just found what the problem was: I was using the LinWiz iptables firewall builder, and this one did set by default to have a limitation for synfloods at 1 syn per second (at the end of the script). This, used with SSL, makes the HTTPS connection transfer speed being very very slow, but not for the HTTP connections. Now I incremented it to 50/s and 100 burst limitation, and all works very well. For those that this might help.. Daniel
