Re: [CentOS-es] Liberar cola Qmail

 Saludos.

 En un servidor Centos 5.2 con qmail desde el fin de semana pasado hubo un
 ataque spam, y nos creó una cola de alrededor de 3 millones de mensajes.

 Se ha depurado muchos mensajes y el servidor ahora funciona bien, pero
 algunos mensajes se quedaron en cola.
 Hemos usado queue-repair, qmhandle, qmtool pero seguimos obteniendo la
 misma cola

 # /var/qmail/queue/qmhandle-1.3.2/qmHandle -a

Que tal si:

Aumentas el numero de mensajes que envía qmail, por defecto estos valores
son 10 para local y 20 para remoto, se pueden ver estos valores en:

# cat /var/qmail/bin/qmail-showctl |grep concu

Para aumentar los valores, ejecutar:

# echo 120  /var/qmail/control/concurrencyremote

# echo 100  /var/qmail/control/concurrencylocal

# killall -ALRM qmail-send

Por si acaso también he reiniciado qmail

# /etc/init.d/qmail restart

Tras esto qmail, ya empieza a escupir mensajes liberando la cola de correo.

Hi Pierce

This servers would be used for MySQL DB purpose. I suppose it would be IO
bound instead of CPU cycles. Please help me understand.

if you have a large number of client-sql connections and concurrent

always helps.

 I read your original message regarding this
 https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhelv5-list/2012-February/msg00060.html

 according to your experiences only upgrading kvm hosts are problematic?
 so upgrading only guests to 5.8 is maybe fine?

I have had limited time of testing so I'd take this with a grain of 
salt. After experiencing the NFS problem I rolled all the KVM hosts and 
guests back to 5.7 kernel and kvm module.

I have never Install a package out of yum so this conflict is very 
strange to me.
I try to clean up yum, and update with --skip-broken with no luck.

Is good to install php packages excluding php-pear?
Actually I dont use it.

Can somebody advice me?

Thank you in advance

mostly, numerical scientific processing, and various sorts of multimedia

most architectures, there's only one FPU (floating point unit) per 
core...  hyperthreading causes each core to act like two cores, which 
works great for integer, character, network, etc sorts of processing, 
but if the two threads are both trying to do steady floating point or 
MMX/SSE style processing, they have to share the same hardware and run 
slower.

3D animation rendering as in gaming? That would explain the use of GPU's in

gaming uses the graphics card for rendering, yes.   by 'rendering', I 
was thinking more of production rendering, like Pixar does when making a 
movie, using clusters of 100s of multicore nodes to render frames.

Do you have python-ctypes installed?

Besides iotop does not work for kernels  2.6.20. You need a patched
kernel. The rpm package from http://guichaz.free.fr/iotop/ works also
on non standard el5 kernels but shows no more information than iostat.

Negative performance due to HT comes in several flavours. Some compute 
intensive loads simply perform a bit better with HT off (usually measureable 
but not really noticeable, 1-10% is expected here). Another way HT can cause 
you performance degradation is due to incorrect scheduling and/or pinning. 
What happens then is that two threads are (incorrectly) put on the same core

On the positive side, if you have many (preferably independent) threads you'll

 I try to clean up yum, and update with --skip-broken with no luck.

 Is good to install php packages excluding php-pear?
 Actually I dont use it.

 Can somebody advice me?

 Thank you in advance

The issue you are having is that several php-pear-*.rf packages
installed that are conflicting with the base CentOS php-pear rpm.

The .rf designator means that the conflicting php-pear-* packages in
question are from the repoforge/rpmforge 3rd part repository.

If you do not need those packages then remove them.

If you do need them, I would look for those packages on EPEL, as the
php-pear-* packages there do not conflict with the main php-pear package
from CentOS.

EPEL:

 Do let me know if anyone needs more information.


Hyperthreading is not enabled or disabled in CentOS ... it is something
that you enable or disable on your machine in the computers BIOS settings.

If Hypertheading is enabled in your BIOS, then CentOS sees 2x the
processors from your machine at boot up time.

Your kernel is too old. You need at least 2.6.18-238.el5 (This was the
first 5.6 kernel)

 iotop-0.4.3-4.el5
 
 python-2.4.3-46.el5

It seems you have a partially updated system. These Packages are from 5.8

The .rf packages come from the Repoforge (formerly RPMForge) repo. The
conflict you see is caused by similar packages being provided by
multiple repos. You can only fix that by excluding them from all but one
repo.

 Is good to install php packages excluding php-pear?
 Actually I dont use it.

The fact that you have so many PEAR packages on your system suggest
someone on your system might be using them. Don't blow them away unless
you want to break existing PHP websites that use them.

All that said, for me the easiest approach managing PEAR packages is
just using PEAR itself to install and update modules. Install the
php-pear rpm once, then exclude it from the updates in your base repo
config.

(If you take this approach yourself make a list of the installed pear
module rpms before you uninstall them with yum. After uninstalling the
rpms you have to reinstall the modules using pear install.)

Regards,
Leonard.

 Besides iotop does not work for kernels  2.6.20. You need a patched
 kernel. The rpm package from http://guichaz.free.fr/iotop/ works also
 on non standard el5 kernels but shows no more information than iostat.

thats not true. the EL kernels have block dev accounting backported in,
use the iotop from EPEL, and use a recent'ish kernel for CentOS-5, and
you should be fine.

While Alfresco doesn't have the bits about calendar integration, that's easily

Device integration for things like calendars isn't that difficult but the lack

smartphones which allow a lot of telephone numbers per contact, and vary in 
mapping every day fields such as home addresses. Even Gmail doesn't completely 
solve it but handles the simple users rather easily.

[CentOS] Errors trying to install centos 6.2 as an lxc guest under centos 6.2 host

2012-03-09 Thread C. L. Martinez
 Hi all,

 I am trying to install a centos 6.2 container under centos 6.2 host
using libvirt and virt.-manager. I have selected OS Container
option, but when I try to launch this guest virt-manager returns me
this error:

 I have followed these instructions: http://libvirt.org/drvlxc.html
and http://berrange.com/posts/2011/09/27/getting-started-with-lxc-using-libvirt/

 I have tried to do the same using rhel6.2 instead of centos 6.2 and
results are the same ...

 What am I doing wrong?? Do I need to copy all host files to this
guest?? I f yes, then, how can I apply security updates to these
guests??

 Thanks.

I just haven't seen enough mobile devices/apps to know what is
generic.   On my android, it was tied into the email account setup and

in general, you would feed the same URL to an android device that you would

Gmail - that's integrated into System = Accounts and you set up a Gmail

 in general, you would feed the same URL to an android device that you would 
 give to iCal, Outlook, Evolution, etc.
 
 But where do you enter a URL related to calendars?
 
 wrt an android device...
 
 Gmail - that's integrated into System = Accounts and you set up a Gmail 
 account and it links Contacts  Calendars as well as mail though you can 
 turn off the 'sync' for those services.
 
 Exchange - that's integrated into 'Corporate Sync' which actually handles 
 basically all other e-mail/calendar/contact accounts
 
 Under 'settings', I have accounts and sync, where I can add
 exchange/activesync, facebook, flickr, google, yahoo and a few other
 things, but I don't see an arbitrary type entry.   I can add an
 account in email, and gmail and yahoo have their own apps, but it
 isn't clear that those would add a webdav type calendar sync.

apparently not a standard android feature but you can search caldav in market 
(now 'play' I guess) and you will see several clients which will add the sync 
feature.

I gather you can add 3rd party calendar programs that will do this too.

[CentOS] The CentOS contrib repository

2012-03-09 Thread Yves Bellefeuille
According to the Wiki, the CentOS contrib repository contains packages 
contributed by CentOS users which do not overlap with any of the core 
distribution packages.

The repository seems to be empty. Are contributions actually welcome? 
Are there any policies about proposing packages?

Thanks,
