The first table is nicely configured by the files under /etc/sysconfig/.

The first table becomes the second when this command is run:

route add -net 10.10.0.0/16 gw 192.168.0.98 eth0

The question is, which file(s) need to be configured under /etc/sysconfig/-- and with 
what-- in order to accomplish what the route add ... command does?




which OS?

for EL5, from /usr/share/doc/initscripts-8.45.45/sysconfig.txt

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-interface-name

   Contains lines that specify additional routes that should be added when the
   associated interface is brought up.

Thanks, Leon.  I looked at using that file before, but gave it just a 
30% possibility of working, this due to the fact that there didn't seem 
to be enough variables available with which to provide all the 
information required to create the route.  But it worked fine, so who 
can argue with that?  :)

Re: [CentOS] When will CentOS Publish Errata?

 However, luckily, Gmane archives everything just fine.
 http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.centos.devel/12370/focus=12375
 
 Thanks Steven for bringing this thread to my attention.
 So it looks like there was already a discussion about this in September, and 
 it ended with two action items.
 
 1. Write code to automatically put the following into updateinfo.xml
   a. Link to RH web site
   b. List of packages that are updated
   c. CESA, CEBA or CEEA number which flags the type of fix as bug, security 
 or enhancement.
 
 2. Figure out how and where to store previous errata content.
 
 The final comment on the thread Erata in the Repo was Kevin Strange saying 
 he would look into #1, and also him asking everybody what the best way to do 
 #2 is.
 
 Does anybody know if Kevin has had any luck with #1? Would it be better if I 
 revived that thread or is it fine to discuss here?

Please note a couple of things ...

1.  Blatant screen scraping is a violation of the terms of service for
RHN .. so where is a SOURCE of information for something like this:


https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-2024.html

If you read this:

https://access.redhat.com/help/terms/

then, one can not just grab all the info on that errata page and
distribute it .. which is why we LINK to it and not distribute it currently.

So, the first issue is that one must find a source for the information
that would go into the 'updateinfo.xml' file that is always maintained
and is available to read and to redistribute.

2.  If someone comes up with a place to get said data, THEN we could
properly publish that data in some way.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

 I believe I have removed as much of the link rot on that page as I am 
 capable.
 If someone believes the links I have provided are not appropriate for
 the purposes of the article, please let me know. I'm still in the
 process of learning and will be glad to share the improved knowledge
 of any others.

 Done. And assuming I have not made any mistake with the acl, you
 should now be capable of editing that page directly.

 Alan.

After I logged on, the page displayed the Edit options. I was able to
make a bad edit, display a Preview, and Cancel that edit. I think that
indicates we have what we intended.

Thank you,

 I was wondering, should I be filling a bug report for these typos?

 You can if you'd like, as it's a bit easier for me to track long-term. I
 have several things in the air at any one time, so I tend to be a bit
 distracted and might overlook it.

I'll do that in the future

 I'm working toward converting the current site from a nanoc based static
 generator to using middleman. Once this is done, I'm planning to open
 the git repo for public cloning, so in the future you'd be able to
 simply submit a patch/pull request.

 If you're good with ruby, and some of the more 'hipster' static site
 languages (sass, haml, etc), I could certainly use a hand.

I'm sorry, I can't offer much hope in that vein. I'm a 27-year veteran
of the industry, but I haven't consistently used any of the tools
available in the FLOSS community other than HTML, Wikimedia and
MoinMoin, yet. CSS and Javascript are probably my next study
concentration points. My laptop is still running the operating system
delivered with it and the machines I intended for my lab are now
passe` 32-bit machines. I'll be reading the fine manuals served by the
CentOS project for some time before I become highly productive.

I'll get there, though. And when I do, you'll see quality, because
that's what I was schedule pushed to skip in the past and I'm retired
now, that is, I set my schedule now.

http://wiki.centos.org/FrontPage
with the contents of
http://wiki.centos.org/PatrickDGarvey/FrontPage ?

In the What is CentOS? section, I have changed,
The CentOS Project mainly change packages ...
to

That is change is now changes.

I have no problem with you making the change directly, since it would
probably be easier.

Re: [CentOS] When will CentOS Publish Errata?

2015-01-05 Thread Somers-Harris, David | David | OPS
 1.  Blatant screen scraping is a violation of the terms of service for RHN .. 
 so where is a SOURCE of information for something like this:

 https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2014-2024.html

 If you read this:
 https://access.redhat.com/help/terms/

 then, one can not just grab all the info on that errata page and distribute 
 it .. 
 which is why we LINK to it and not distribute it currently.

 So, the first issue is that one must find a source for the information that 
 would 
 go into the 'updateinfo.xml' file that is always maintained and is available 
 to read 
 and to redistribute.

 2.  If someone comes up with a place to get said data, THEN we could properly 
 publish 
 that data in some way.

 Thanks,
 Johnny Hughes

Can't we just ask Red Hat if it's OK for CentOS to use the data for its 
updateinfo.xml?
Is there some official communication channel between the CentOS Project and Red 
Hat?

 where is the part of EL7 that doesn’t add columns of numbers correctly?
 
 If the program won't start or the distribution libraries are
 incompatible (which is very, very likely) then it isn't going to add
 anything.

That’s ABI compatibility again, and it isn’t a CentOS specific thing.

The primary reason for it is that most things on your Linux box were built from 
an SRPM that contains readable — and therefore recompilable — source code.

I’ve successfully rebuilt an old SRPM to run on a newer OS several times.  It 
isn’t always easy, but it is always possible.

This fact means there is much less incentive to keep ABIs stable in the Linux 
world than in the Windows and OS X worlds, where raw binaries are often all you 
get.

If your situation is that you do have binary-only programs, they’re likely 
commercial software of some sort, so you might think about whether you should 
have a maintenance contract for them, so you can get newer binaries as you move 
to new platforms.

If a support contract is out of the question, you have the option of creating a 
VM to run the old binaries today.  

Docker will eat away at this problem going forward.  You naturally will not 
already have Dockerized versions of apps built 10 years ago, and it may not be 
practical to create them now, but you can start insisting on getting them today 
so that your future OS changes don’t break things for you again.

 I built a
 CentOS7 to match my old CentOS5 pair.   It can do the same thing, but
 there is no way to make them actively cluster together so the new one
 is aware of the outstanding leases at cutover or to have the ability
 to revert if the new one introduces problems.

I believe that was ISC’s fault, not Red Hat’s.

Red Hat did their job: they supported an old version of ISC dhcpd for 7 years.  
ISC broke their failover API during that period.  You can’t blame Red Hat for 
not going in and reverting whatever change caused the breakage when they 
finally did upgrade dhcpd with EL6.

This is a consequence of pulling together software developed by many different 
organizations into a software distribution, as opposed to developing everything 
in-house.

You are free to backport the old EL5 dhcpd SRPM to EL7.

Perhaps your point is that Red Hat should have either a) continued to 
distribute an 8-year-old version of dhcpd with EL7 [1], or b) somehow given you 
the new features of ISC dhcpd 4.2.5 without breaking anything?  If so, I take 
this point back up at the end.


[1] https://lists.isc.org/pipermail/dhcp-announce/2006-November/90.html

 The ability to fail back is important, unless you think new software
 is always perfect.

You fall back in this case by turning off the EL7 dhcpd and going back to a 
redundant set of EL5 dhcpds.

All dhcpd needs to do here is help you to migrate forward.  As long as that 
doesn’t break, you have what you need, if not what you *want*.

 The nature of embedded systems is that you design them for a specific task, 
 with a fixed scope.  You deploy them, and that’s what they do from that 
 point forward.
 
 And those things
 span much longer that 10 years.  If you are very young you might not
 understand that.

My first look at the Internet was on a VT102.  I refer not to a terminal 
emulator, but to something that crushes metatarsals if you drop it on your foot.

I think I’ve got enough gray in my beard to hold my own in this conversation.

 And yet, 90% of new software continues to *not* be developed in Java.
 
 Lots of people do lots  of stupid things that I can't explain.

Just because you can’t explain it doesn’t mean it’s an irrational choice.

 But if
 numbers impress you, if you count android/Dalvik which is close enough
 to be the stuff of lawsuits, there's probably more instances of
 running programs than anything else.

There are more JavaScript interpreters in the world than Dalvik, ART,[2] and 
Java ® VMs combined.  Perhaps we should rewrite everything in JavaScript 
instead?

If we consider only the *ix world, there are more Bourne-compatible shell 
script interpreters than Perl, Python, or Ruby interpreters.  Why did anyone 
bother to create these other languages, and why do we spend time maintaining 
these environments and writing programs for them?

Why even bother with ksh or Bash extensions, for that matter?  The original 
Bourne shell achieved Turing-completeness in 1977.  There is literally nothing 
we can ask a computer to do that we cannot cause to happen via a shell script.  
(Except run fast.)

If you think I’m wrong about that, you probably didn’t ever use sharchives.

 Could be there are more downsides to that plan than upsides.
 
 You didn't come up with portable non-java counterexamples

[CentOS] Hardware raid LSI Megaraid not working since Centos 6.6

2015-01-05 Thread Philippe BOURDEU d'AGUERRE

Happy new year !

We have a SuperMicro server with a LSI MegaRAID 9260-4i controller.

Since Centos 6.6 update (kernel 2.6.32-504), the controller doesn't 
initialize at boot. Reverting to kernel 2.6.32-431 allows server to boot 
fine.


The server can't boot due to a bug in LSI megaraid module. Boot log ends 
by a lot of lines:


RESET_GEN2: retry=xxx, hostdiag=a4

I tried Centos 6.6 install disk and it also fails to find disks but 
Centos 7 install disk boot fine.


It's annoying to be stuck at 2.6.32-431 kernel and I have no idea how to 
solve this issue :-(


Thanks for any help.

You can if you'd like, as it's a bit easier for me to track long-term. I
have several things in the air at any one time, so I tend to be a bit
distracted and might overlook it.

I'm working toward converting the current site from a nanoc based static
generator to using middleman. Once this is done, I'm planning to open
the git repo for public cloning, so in the future you'd be able to
simply submit a patch/pull request.

If you're good with ruby, and some of the more 'hipster' static site
languages (sass, haml, etc), I could certainly use a hand.
