[CentOS] Nfs4 with kerberos freezing system
Hello, I have a CentOS 5.2 server that exports /home on the local network for 2 users by secure nfs4 with kerberos krb5p. The clients are a notebook and a desktop pc. The following error is always reproducible on all clients. If running the clients on high load, that means for example 5 firefox windows open and connected with www pages from the internet, installing the new qt development environmet on the nfs4 share from the 297 mb big qt-sdk-linux-x86-opensource-2009.01.bin file and copy a 649 mb iso image to the nfs4 share, the client is freenzing and a reboot is necessary. If running the clients on low load, than the system is stable for hours. In my opinion this is an error by an CentOS nfs package, cause this problem is reproducible with different kernels, different desktop environments and different clients. I don't think the error is caused by the server hardware, cause if running the same nfs setting with nfs version 3 and disabling nfs secure, the system is stable. I have test this with - latest CentOS 5.2 kernel and testing redhat kernel 2.6.18-133.el5 - kde and gnome - different clients and hardware Is anybody here successfully using nfs4/krb5p with CentOS 5.2? regards Olaf ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

A few months back, I tried replace some memory sticks with much larger ones. No go. But the specs said they should be compatible. After puttzing around with all sorts of things, I decided the only thing left was the voltage settings for the sticks. More memory has a greater draw. Not wanting to void the warranty, I didn't dink with it on my own. I carried the unit to my local dealer and said you do it if you think it is safe. Bumped the voltage a couple tenths and all worked. The reason is obvious. Why the auto setting didn't work, I can't say. Have been running successfully for many months now. So, if you've got the leeway, try manually bumping the voltage for the unit a couple of tenths. Risk is low, but it is there.

How did you distribute the keytab files? Are users authenticating properly on login? Is the krb5.conf file setup optimally? 3) How is DNS setup? Did you setup resource records for the kerberos server? Did you setup name resolution properly on the clients? Is there firewall or proxy server settings that might interfere with either DNS or NFS? 4) How are these NFS shares mounted? Are they soft or hard mounts?

[CentOS] LSI Logic MegaRAID 8480 Storage controller
I have LSI Logic MegaRAID 8480 Storage controller I am having trouble reconfigure one of the hardware raid devices It is configured with 4 hardware raid logical volumes on /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdc /dev/sdd. I am in the middle of rebuilding the system, and at this point I am only using one of the volumes, /dev/sda /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, and /dev/sdd are all 2 drive raid1 mirrors I will be using the hardware raid logical volumes /dev/sdb and /dev/sdd with their current configurations I doubt that the hardware raid device on /dev/hda is causing any problems /dev/sda has two partitiions /dev/sda1 is a 100 MB ext3 partition mounted on /boot /dev/sda2 is a 20 GB lvm logical volume in a 67 GB volume group with an ext3 partition mounted on / the rest of the volume group is empty. I don't like the /dev/sdc is configued. It's configured as a 4 drive raid6. It will be used for database journal, nearly all sequential writes. I would rather use raid10 There are 3 ways to configure the hardware raid. The is something called WebBIOS which is sort of like a web browser that you access from the BIOS. This is ruled out since we will need to maintain the raid configuration with shutting down the operating system, or applications. There is a MegaCLI command line interface that runs under the operating system. Normally I prefer command line tools. But this software is big, and complex. All I have been able to find is a reference manual, that has lots of typos and is not very well organized for me to learn what I need to know. I have not been able to find a tutorial for this software. It will take more time than I have at the moment to figure out this tool. Finally there is the MegaRAID Storage Manager a GUI tool that runs under the OS. I'm running v2.77-00 So the first thing I need to do is delete the unwanted raid6 logical volume. When I try to delete it, it refuses and says: This is an OS drive. The virtual drive cannot be deleted. Any ideas on how to get past this problem with the MegaRAID Storage Manager, or pointers the better documentation, and maybe even a tutorial for the MegaCLI interface. -- Drew Einhorn ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] Grub Loading stage2Read Error
Hi there, I had a system drop this weekend, and upon boot, the system halts at a black screen with the following error: Grub Loading stage2Read Error Now upon googling around, it seems to be recommended to reinstall GRUB. My system is a simple raid 0 (data backed up), with the typical partition scheme (LVM, etc) provided by CentOS. This system is 5.2 in my case. Now since my system is a raid 0, I am a little hesitant to do the procedure as none of the instructions I have found take this into consideration. What would be the best way to do this, or more importantly to find out the proper device to run (on): /sbin/grub-install /dev/...

Works nicely for my only purpose - Windows backup. Installs like an appliance - it will stomp on several config files without warning. Best to try it out on a test box or virtual machine. Had to sort through many small scripts to get it to do what I wanted. Main ones I edited were /opt/drbl/sbin/ocs-functions, /opt/drbl/lang/bash/en_US, /tftpboot/nbi_img/pxelinux.cfg/default. Use only one network, shut off nis master, made it a secondary dhcpd server, NFS mount the image storage point off another box. The logger service /opt/drbl/sbin/ocsmgrd didn't work the way I liked, so I use cobbled something together using nc. Because I changed around some files, I have to be careful with drbl/clonezilla updates. I found it useful to have spare disk/LVM space on the server to restore images to, easier restore of a single file or dir. Needs to be equal/larger than the biggest client disk. I had to move it from an x86_64 to i386 Centos - not all my client cpus could run 64bit.

[CentOS] need help with keyring
I should mention that I'm a total newbie with keyrings! I tried searching for help sites - found 1, but I still have a problem. If there is a website (or sites) that explain this, please post it (them)! Ok, so I have a laptop with wifi, running CentOS 5.2. When I boot it, it finds the nearby wifi signals, and tries to connect to mine. To do this, it puts up a window to get my default keyring password. Perhaps I needed to config something? Anyway, I found http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Tools/NetworkManager , which _seems_ to explain everything. However, my newbie-ness is interfering with this process. NB - I use gnome. The problem is that it's still asking for the default password. I'm fairly sure that I didn't *complete* that process (one issue - that password is different from my user password.) It states that I need (?) to change the keyring password to be the same as the user password - but I can't figure out how. The last sentence: (Using gnome-keyring-manager), highlight the keyring and select Change Keyring Password from the Keyring menu of gnome-keyring-manager. I don't have 'Change' anything there - whether as $ or #. What do I need to do to satisfy it (so that it doesn't ask for the password)? ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

When I boot it, it finds the nearby wifi signals, and tries to connect to mine. To do this, it puts up a window to get my default keyring password. Perhaps I needed to config something? I had a similar problem at my last job connecting Evolution to a Windows Exchange Server for my email. Eventually, I found that if I told Evolution NOT to remember my password, but I input it manually every time, then the system would not pester me about the default keyring password. For the record, I never did figure out the problem, and my requests for assistance from the gnome list went nowhere - I suspect no one there knew how to get past this, either. I tried creating new keyrings, all the passwords I could think of for the default keyring (none of them worked, including no password), and I found this workaround to be sufficient for what I needed.
