[CentOS-es] Problemas con JAVA
Hola, tengo un script con java en mi servidor, especificamente, tcp-over-dns pero estoy notando algo raro. Cada cierto tiempo debo reiniciar el script, porque no se como, pero me dice que esta usando tanto como 20GB de memoria, cosa exorbitante como puedo limitar ese uso, al menos eso dice el htop? y si, realmente se pone algo pesado cuando lleva ejecutandose 5+ dias.

An odd choice of server for an HA environment wouldn't you say? That unit is nothing more than a desktop, it really doesn't have redundant anything... Anyways, you can also use an snmp agent to down a switch port(s) that the server is attached to, I wrote one in the early 5.x days and it worked well. The cluster wiki had good docs.

On 08.01.2013 20:38, Steve Campbell wrote: I think I know the answer to this question based on all of the research I've done, but figured I'd ask anyway. I needed a couple of servers for an HA cluster, and our order guy here ordered me a couple of Dell PowerEdge T110 II. I'd planned on using IPMI to fence these things with, but later found out that this model is only one of two PE servers Dell sells that has a stripped down BMC on it, and allows only local access. It's my fault for not looking closer at the specs, but I figured a PowerEdge server would have the stuff I needed. So now I'm looking for a way to fence these without purchasing more equipment. I thought maybe IF-MIB, but I can't discover enough about that to determine whether that'll work for me. I find it strange that using Conga (luci) from a third administration server I can reboot these two Dell nodes, and wonder why that works, how it's done, and why that wouldn't work as a fence method. Any one dealt with this particular Dell PE and fencing in any form other than using something like an APC fence? Thanks for any suggests. I've pretty much wore Google out, and I'm now in that round-robin mode of results where everything leads back to the same pages on different servers. steve campbell Hi, in my test-lab I also have 2 Dell PE T110 II and one older T110. All 3 are a basic configuration (no iDrac express or enterprise). But they do have ipmi and are controllable and fencable via lan. These boxes just share ipmi with the onboard nic. Are you sure yours are only accessible locally? And if you have local ipmi I see no reason why external should not work.

[CentOS] nm-applet in gdm still possible?
Greetings, Does anyone know if it is still possible to make use of the NetworkManager applet during a log on session? The reason why would be to have roaming users setup/manage (w)lan/vpn connections before logging in. Several searches hinted on either copying or linking /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop to /usr/share/gdm/autostart/LoginWindow but that has not worked thus far.

Incredibly large yes. What is that clock-applet doing with 139m? I find that to be a really good question. When I first posted, the system had been up for (from my memory) something like 29 days, and the RES column for clock_applet was some number well above a gigabyte. I can imagine that those who say it's just being reported wrong may be right, but if so I don't see why that number would continue to grow. in fact it's also a fact that the amount of swap in use had grown above two gigs, which is definitely NOT the norm on this system.

Per-program memory bloat doesn't bother me nearly as much as the idea of having dozens of different shared libraries that all provide the same functionality but aren't compatible and thus aren't actually shared (and worse, all have different bugs to deal with).

The first two blocks are from the program file itself /usr/libexec/clock-applet. The first block of that is not writable (r-xp). That are the executable instructions. The second one is writable (rw-p). Those are the writable data (variable etc.). We see several sizes. We see the total size, and the RSS size (=what is using memory now). The RSS is again split up in different categories below it. (Shared/Private Clean/dirty). The first block is the code, and thus non writable, and thus pages here can be deleted from memory at all times and can be paged back in from the file itself. They should always have 0 dirty pages. The second block is writable, having a mix of clean and dirty pages. These dirty pages must always be kept in memory. Dirty pages can also be shared with other processes, e.g. shmem segments. Next we see the heap (memory from malloc etc). And as expected, all private and dirty here. When a page is shared between many processes, this is reflected in the PSS value (proportional set size): 64 kB RSS, all shared between 4 processes, will show 16 kB PSS. Example: 2d317000-2d346000 r-xp fd:00 189693 /usr/lib64/libgsf-1.so.114.0.1 Size: 188 kB Rss: 56 kB Shared_Clean:48 kB Shared_Dirty: 0 kB Private_Clean:8 kB Private_Dirty:0 kB Swap: 0 kB Pss: 21 kB # lsof /usr/lib64/libgsf-1.so.114.0.1 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME gnome-pan 5826 paulb memREG 253,0 210712 189693 /usr/lib64/libgsf-1.so.114.0.1 stickynot 5932 paulb memREG 253,0 210712 189693 /usr/lib64/libgsf-1.so.114.0.1 clock-app 5950 paulb memREG 253,0 210712 189693 /usr/lib64/libgsf-1.so.114.0.1 nautilus 23427 paulb memREG 253,0 210712 189693 /usr/lib64/libgsf-1.so.114.0.1 Apparently not all 56kB is shared with all these 4 processes, but proprotionally the clock is using 21 kB of that. The ps and top show the sum of several of those values: VIRT: sum of Size RSS : sum of Rss SHR : sum of Shared_* (aproximately at least: When I do my additions, I get in the neighbourhood, but not exact. I do not know why...) So to debug our problem, we should find some part(s) there and see where the memory is going to. Maybe there is 1 large part? (e.g. some enormous font file -- unicode font -- that somehow all is marked as dirty) Or many smaller parts (heap - mostly malloc and friends, and thus suspecting a memory leak there). -- Paul Bijnens, Xplanation *** * I think I've got the hang of it now: exit, ^D, ^C, ^\, ^Z, ^Q, ^^, * * quit, ZZ, :q, :q!, M-Z, ^X^C, logoff, logout, close, bye, /bye, ~., * * stop, end, ^]c, +++ ATH, disconnect, halt, abort, hangup, KJOB, * * ^X^X, :D::D, kill -9 1, kill -1 $$, shutdown, init 0, Alt-F4, * * Alt-f-e, Ctrl-Alt-Del, Alt-SysRq-reisub, Stop-A, AltGr-NumLock, ... * * ...

Another thing that might be interesting to try is to kill the clock-applet and leave it dead for a while, and see if top starts reporting that memory to some other app(let).

A $200 nVidia board is a round-off error compared to the price paid for the software license and support. If you were only doing 2D stuff, I'd say it might be fine, but your complaint about glxgears tells me you want real-time 3D. So, get a real 3D board. Assuming by Cadence you mean one of the Allegro PCB design products, Cadence has a document that makes this requirement explicit: http://goo.gl/V2E9S Quoting from page 15: A dedicated graphics card with hardware OpenGL support and a minimum of 128MB dedicated (not shared) video RAM and a 128-bit bus interface.

Sorry, I haven't been following this thread, but from just the above, it *looks* as though you're trying to install an el5 package, gdisk, on a el6 system, and yum complains, and rightfully so. mark ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] firefox 18
Has anyone managed to get FF 18.0 to work on Centos 5.8? I've been hacking at it, placing a stack of .so files (from Centos 6) into a private directory, then using LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point the system to (in a shellscript that subsequently invokes ff 18) but so far I've not managed to find the right combination. I've moved over libstdc++, all or nearly all the .so files from glib2 and glibc packages. now Im getting: ./firefox: symbol lookup error: ./libstdc++.so.6: undefined symbol: _ZNSt7num_getIcSt19istreambuf_iteratorIcSt11char_traitsIcEEE2idE, version GLIBCXX_3.4 and dunno either what I've done wrong, or what other things need to be brought over. Clues appreciated. :) -- Fred Smith -- fre...@fcshome.stoneham.ma.us - I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. -- Philippians 4:13 --- ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
