Disk read io very high, but no process perform io read
by yf chu 12 Mar '21

12 Mar '21

We have experienced a very weird problem. The load of the server machine is very high. We use "pidstat" and find that the disk read io is very high. But the processes running on this server do not perform any disk read operation. We also noticed that when we execute "top" command, for most of processes, the values in "SHR" column are zero. Compared with other normal servers, we found that by executing "free -m", the result shows that the buff/cache value in this server is lower than the value of other normal servers. We also found that there were lots of major page faults by executing "ps -o majflt,minflt". Swap is not enabled on this server. What could be the reason for this issue? The centos version:CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 kernel version:3.10.0-693.21.1.std7a.el7.0.x86_64

R730xd & SD card identfication
by Gregory P. Ennis 10 Mar '21

10 Mar '21

Everyone, We have migrated a platform to a Centos 8 host using kvm guest machines Recently I tried to copy one of the guests to the external SD card on the back of the Dell R730xd, but I have not been able to get the Centos 8 host to recognize the SD card. I can use DRAC interface of the R730xd to see that the SD card is being recognized and the status of the external SD slot is turned from inactive to active when the card is inserted. I have used lsblk, fdisk -l, and 'dmesg | tail' none of which demonstrate that the Centos 8 host is recognizing the SD card. You help would be appreciated. Thanks !! -- Greg Ennis

SHR in top command is zero and major page fault is frequent
by yf chu 08 Mar '21

08 Mar '21

Recently, I found that many processes in our server experienced high frequency of major page faults. The disk IO on this server is also very high. I also noticed that when I execute "top" command, for some processes, the value in SHR column became zero. when I restart these processes, the values of SHR became non-zero again. What could be the reason for frequent major page fault? Is there any connection between zero SHR and major page fault?

Running CentOS Linux release 8.3.2011 According to uname my kernel is 4.18.0-240.10.1.el8_3.x86_64, but when I check which version of kernel-devel is available, yum info kernel-devel I get that Source : kernel-4.18.0-240.15.1.el8_3.src.rpm Why is the version of kernel-devel available for my kernel based on a newer kernel?

I am trying to find electron for CentOS 7 but "yum provides electron\*" turns up nothing and pkgs.org does not find anything (https://pkgs.org/search/?q=electron). Does anyone have better information?

mkdtemp on CentOS 7
by H 07 Mar '21

07 Mar '21

I am trying to compile DeltaChat in a CentOS 7 docker container and at one stage have to run: npm install --global electron but the above fails, seemingly because CentOS 7 does not have 'mkdtemp', nor have I found it in a repository. I had previously used: npm install electron --save-dev which installs fine but does not seem to use mkdtemp. yum provides mkdtemp ends up not finding anything but perhaps someone knows this better?

proper recipe for local mirror
by Adrian Sevcenco 06 Mar '21

06 Mar '21

Hi! What is the proper solution for a local mirror for centos 7 (or oven 8) repositories? trying with rsync, while the packages are downloaded but the repodata is not and is actually impossible to be used by clients. while i try to recreate the repodata with createrepo -C -d --workers=4 ${repo} where ${repo} is the sync destination where it contains %arch/{Packages,repodata} directories the clients throw errors like: <LOCAL_MIRROR>/mirrors/centos/7/updates/x86_64/repodata/51d63b04c8bb74c5d9f09ae65f763f319a69492d9a8fac5ea0bf9b63bf347c5c-primary.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found What am i missing? Thanks a lot! Adrian

tracking samba changes
by Christopher Wensink 06 Mar '21

06 Mar '21

Good morning everyone. This morning when I came in my boss said that he doesn't have access to the R: drive, which is a samba share to a folder called RP. I looked in /etc/group and his username was not in there. He's had access to this group for years, since before I was at the company. Yesterday I added a new employee to two other groups, saved the change and exited, and I took out an old username out of a few groups but I did not touch my boss's username at all. Is there any kind of trace log that shows changes to a group or to /etc/group that tracks / logs all individual changes that I can trace back to what might have happened that's turned on in the system, to show changes to /etc/group, or does that only get captured through an outside backup?

Tar of files
by Jerry Geis 03 Mar '21

03 Mar '21

When I "tar" up an archive the files have an owner bob, when I extract that to another machine bob is there also but user number is different. So when I extract bob is no longer the owner of the files but someone else. Is there a good way to account for this ? User ID on one box being different to the next box ? I was expecting to untar and bob still be the owner . Thanks, Jerry
