That's why I'm asking for feedback! :-) There is also some cute documentation available in the Deployment Guide. Yes - pointed to that in the CentOS 5 FAQ entry added about the same time as this was created. You wrote: 'Some controllers claim to be RAID but require Windows drivers to function, similar to winmodems.' This is not true. Some controllers make use of OS functionality. This is not dependent to Windows. OK - agree that some such controllers may have Linux drivers. Will note that. You wrote: 'Booting will only work from non-RAID or RAID1 partitions. RAID0 or RAID5 will not work.' This is only true if you wish to have the boot partition (/boot/) reside on a RAID parition. In this case it must be on a RAID1 partition. That's what I thought I was saying but obviously needs some clarification if you read it differently. Also, in your scenario it does not make much sense to split /boot and may cause confusion, as it's not necessary on a RAID1. Agree - addressed this point in the reply to Ned. You wrote: 'Disable any hardware-based RAID in the motherboard or RAID controller BIOS ' Why that? I have some systems where I combine hardware- and softraids. This may be the case on fakeraid controllers. OK - I know you understood what you thought I said, but what you heard was not what I meant. :-) Will change hardware-based RAID to fake RAID controllers without CentOS drivers. ...skipping...someone else could take care... You wrote: After installing a new kernel, repeat Section Three. It should be possible to apply a similar approach to a /boot on RAID1, or to a / on RAID1 without a /boot. Why should someone want to use dd to mirror a / partition on an active RAID1 ? One would not. Again apparently needs clarification. That's why more eyes are better.

[CentOS] Wake On LAN
Hey Listees I can not work out how to get my Dell NF500 III server to use wake on LAN using the on board Broadcom NetExtreme II BCM5708 NIC card? I'm running Cent OS 5.3 final (i386). Basically, If I had windows server 2k3 installed I know that the cards mobo etc support WOL I would just have to tick a little box under the NIC card properties saying allow wake on LAN (or words to that affect). How can I enable WOL for my NIC card? I have two identical servers so I have tried putting one to sleep (via either setting the hibernate time down to 5 mins and waiting for it to time out and hibernate or by running the following as root: echo shutdown /sys/power/disk; echo disk /sys/power/state) and waking it up with ether-wake and WOL (an rpm package) but neither worked, also with a windows WOL client from a windows server which I know works as it is regularly in use but the system didn't come up. The light is glowing green on the mobo just next to the two on board NIC's (both are the same BCM5708's); the light is on but nobodies home? What setting might I be missing within CentOS its self to keep the cards alive when the power is out? Any help is greatly appreciated.

[CentOS] Reset audio controller w/o rebooting?
As I mentioned on a thread about flash-plugin a few days ago, I'm having trouble with my sound device getting stuck and thereby causing problems for anything that accesses it, like video playback. Rebooting the machine fixes it for a while, but it's unpredictable for how long -- sometimes months go by without it recurring, sometimes it happens every couple of days. Right now I'm in one of the latter phases. Any suggestions on how I could reset the controller without having to reboot? (Or suggestions for where else I might ask this question?) Below is output from lshw for the audio controller, and lsmod for the sound modules that are loaded.

Further more this really seems like a Bug in the way Applications handle killing processes. Why? I have a Client this happens to often. Exactly the way you describe. One idea why it affects my clients machine is it is running 4.7 and is dog dead slow. Wait 5 minutes and the processes finally exits.

Anybody know what drivers (for wireless as well as ethernet cable) I need, and how/where to get ones to fit CentOS?? Why do you want CentOS on an EeePC ? It's not really intended for that purpose, if your having to ask where to get the drivers for it your probably not suited for running CentOS on the EeePC. Your better off with Fedora, or Ubuntu or something that has broader hardware support. I have a strong if perhaps irrational preference for the .rpm family; I have indeed installed and run F8, F9, F10, and Eeedora on this machine. Unfortunately, until I can afford to replace it with a somewhat larger netbook, what's left of my eyeballs and fingers limits me to using it in waiting rooms, and not much of anywhere else. Given that limitation, speed of boot becomes a major criterion. F10 (and also, believe it or not, Pupeee) took *over* ten minutes -- yes, real sixty-second minutes; it's not a typo -- just to boot. And then had to find wifi. I installed Ubuntu 9.04 netbook remix on my EeePC 2G surf yesterday(onto a 4G SD card), it was pretty painless although the general UI has too much eye candy, so it is choppy. The wiki says future kernel updates should address some of the sluggishness. I've also been trying plain Ubuntu, Eeebuntu, Crunchbang, DreamLinux, and a couple more. I'll run an OS of that ilk if I have to. But for fifty-odd years, the Baby Boomers have trodden my heels, doing all I do a few years later. Some of them, even more than I, will be wanting a mature RedHat-type OS, well back from the bleeding edge, to enable them to check their email, etc., rather than thumb antediluvian magazines in waiting rooms. What's more, CentOS will be able to oblige them, once it gets up to something like present Fedora kernels. Why not a little sooner? And just in case, do please tell me where to get this ultra- exemplary netbook remix, which I have somehow failed to encounter.

Anybody know what drivers (for wireless as well as ethernet cable) I need, and how/where to get ones to fit CentOS?? Why do you want CentOS on an EeePC ? It's not really intended for that purpose, if your having to ask where to get the drivers for it your probably not suited for running CentOS on the EeePC. Your better off with Fedora, or Ubuntu or something that has broader hardware support. I have a strong if perhaps irrational preference for the .rpm family; I have indeed installed and run F8, F9, F10, and Eeedora on this machine. Unfortunately, until I can afford to replace it with a somewhat larger netbook, what's left of my eyeballs and fingers limits me to using it in waiting rooms, and not much of anywhere else. Given that limitation, speed of boot becomes a major criterion. F10 (and also, believe it or not, Pupeee) took *over* ten minutes -- yes, real sixty-second minutes; it's not a typo -- just to boot. And then had to find wifi. I installed Ubuntu 9.04 netbook remix on my EeePC 2G surf yesterday(onto a 4G SD card), it was pretty painless although the general UI has too much eye candy, so it is choppy. The wiki says future kernel updates should address some of the sluggishness. I've also been trying plain Ubuntu, Eeebuntu, Crunchbang, DreamLinux, and a couple more. I'll run an OS of that ilk if I have to. But for fifty-odd years, the Baby Boomers have trodden my heels, doing all I do a few years later. Some of them, even more than I, will be wanting a mature RedHat-type OS, well back from the bleeding edge, to enable them to check their email, etc., rather than thumb antediluvian magazines in waiting rooms.

Now, I'm in for an off-topic question ;-) Can OpenNMS delegate the administration of certain groups of hosts to different users/groups? (While still allowing everybody a view right). No, you basically have write access or you don't. Different users/groups can receive different notifications, though. You can have a passwordless user with read access if you want to make it easier to embed graphs in other web pages or export data through the web interface. You can also create logins that get a 'dashboard only' view that is basically a grid of machines selected by a pair of attributes (like location and server type) where the grid shows the number total number of nodes and the count of nodes with services down, and underneath the grid you can select views with more details for any of the servers in the group. You can't make any changes from the dashboard only logins, though. The about to be released 1.7.3 (unstable branch) version is supposed to add per-user acls to control what devices you can see.
