SAR
by Sam Drinkard 07 Jun '06

Folks, At what point in iowait should I start to worry about having a bottleneck, or is this something that can't be answerd with a single integer? According to sar, after my last reboot to turn off hyperthreading as a test, at one time, I see 4.9% iowait, but then one minute later, it droped back to 0.01%, and rarely even gets to 1.0%, at least what I remember from yesterday. ? thanks.... Sam

centos 4.3 alpha cd iso problems
by Michael Galloway 07 Jun '06

07 Jun '06

good day all ... i've started playing around with 4.3 alpha on some ES40 systems. first. the cd iso images all have the incorrect md5sums. i've downloaded them twice from two different mirrors. they are consistent between mirrors. here are the md5sums i get: af45445778616a7d06440fc5d42fcacb centos-4.3-alpha-disc1.iso 9e0a8dc5e5dfbd276fd50caa40428df0 centos-4.3-alpha-disc2.iso 2d9acc0ebe3528fc5b1265235576160f centos-4.3-alpha-disc3.iso 035fd4515ac889676f3a662855e364c6 centos-4.3-alpha-disc4.iso and from the MD5SUMS.cd file: 72d135f1bc2c06e6a535af1905f7c916 centos-4.3-alpha-disc1.iso 8fa0510f6d906bf834629c62d2aede39 centos-4.3-alpha-disc2.iso dfb75e71c34ec8b1caeca65f72d3d869 centos-4.3-alpha-disc3.iso f8711eb928fc91671633793a7586a166 centos-4.3-alpha-disc4.iso for grins i tried to boot disc1 but it completely failed to boot at all. is there a specific place to discuss the alpha port? or is this the correct channel? -- michael

Inherited an everything box
by Ed Morrison 07 Jun '06

07 Jun '06

Hello Everyone: I inherited a CentOS 4.x box that appears to have been installed with the everything installation option. I would like to strip the box down of all the unnecessary apps and streamline/secure it. Unfortunately, it is a production box and it would be quite inconvenient to burn down and rebuild. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to do this conveniently with yum and still leave the box in a production condition i.e. leave it's needed services up and running? Thanks, Ed

NIC bonding on modern Proliants
by Francois Caen 06 Jun '06

06 Jun '06

Hello, Does anyone have bonding working under CentOS on a modern Proliant? What driver do you use? My setup: Centos x86_64 4.3 fully patched on a Proliant DL380 G4. 2 built-in NICs: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) Using the tg3 driver that came with the OS. I'm trying to set up bonding between the 2 built-in Broadcom NICs in active-backup mode with each NIC going to a separate switch. When I just connect eth0 to a gig port on a switch, both sides on auto/auto, everything is peachy. But when I fire up the bonding, the 2 NICs seem to fail to get a link. The switch sees the ports as up/up, but sometime 1000/full, sometimes 100/half. I've tried hard-setting both sides to 1000/full, using ethtool on the server, no link. Thanks, -- Francois Caen, RHCE, CCNA SpiderMaker, LLC

A tip I would offfer is the command "yum list extras" which helped immensely in finding any packages that had been installed by previous admin without the benefit of the whole yum/repository system. Other steps I used were to do a chkconfig --list | grep ":on" to see what was set to start and then examining the run scripts to determine whether all services were part of a package or not. Last, check the /etc/rc.local in case they compiled an app and installed it manually. Many times people will install their startup commands in it if they are unfamiliar with chkconfig etc. Good Luck, Alex Palenschat

I've got bonding up and runnning with CentOS 4 over tg3 slaves -- seems to work great, although it hasn't gone into production (yet). What makes you think tg3 isn't suitable for bonding?
