use XFS, no fsck's until/unless something catastrophic happens to the

Take a look at 'man tune2fs'  and  'man fstab' for modifying the fsck

[CentOS] How to stagger fsck executions

2015-04-20 Thread Hugh E Cruickshank
CentOS 6

Hi All:

Over the weekend I had to reboot one of my systems and got hit with
fsck runs on all of the filesystems. I would not mind so much except
doing them all at once took over an hour. I would like to be able to
stagger these, ideally only execute one fsck per reboot. I have been
able to think of two possible solutions but neither is terrific.

My first idea was to manually run fsck on each filesystem, one every
couple of weeks. That way they will not all come due at the same time
if we reboot on a regular basis.

The second idea was to set each filesystem to a different random count
value. This would run the risk of having two or more executions at
the same time but it would probably not be very frequent.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a better way of doing this?

TIA

Regards, Hugh

Re: [CentOS] CentOS5 + lighttpd (EPEL) - fix Chrome security warning?

Thanks, I just found that one myself.  In fact on a different platform
the error message from Chrome actually explains it directly rather
than just quote the error string.

I was too focused on restricting the search to lighttpd and not enough
on the error string.

CentOS is not the OS for you if you wish to have the very latest releases of 
software.

The Wireshark project doesn’t provide Linux binaries, apparently since it’s 
already shipped by most every Linux distro.  CentOS 6 ships 1.8.10.

If you must have a newer feature than is available in 1.8, you’ll probably have 
to build it from source.


and... if you do build it from source, I'd recommend building and 
installing it to run in /usr/local/bin  or /opt/something, NOT replacing 
the RPM managed version in /usr/bin ...  since wireshark is simply a 
program, and external stuff should have no dependencies on it, this 
should be fairly straight forward.

All the noarch packages from now on will be the same ... in some of the
earlier distros they were not.  When you build i386/i686 and x86_64
separately, 2 noarch rpms are produced.

It is not that they are significantly different, JUST the signature
times were different before as they were signed separately  .. but
obviously we wanted to only have one package, so we have changed such
that there is only one package (and all our metadata is also changed).
We also will carry this forward for all versions all the time.

Basically, if you remove all noarch files from the tree and rsync, you
should be good.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

 Summary: it's a good package, but the wrong package for the location.

 I downloaded the package from a different mirror, and the install proceeds
 past it. However, now it stops at redhat-logos, with the same error

 An interesting observation: I now have several copies of the mailcap package
 on my system. When I compare md5sums, I see this:

 CentOS 6.4 tree:

029213d1c7b79c0dfa4f6d8063dbdce6  mailcap-2.1.31-2.el6.noarch.rpm (i386)
65e231403f819bea3dce22adee5cb373  mailcap-2.1.31-2.el6.noarch.rpm (x86_64)

 CentOS 6.6 tree, where the x86_64 version was replaced with a fresh copy:

 The packages in 6.4 are different for each arch, but in 6.6 they are the same.
 It appears this relates to how precisely you guys build a distribution?

 IIRC I took a shortcut when upgrading my repositories from 6.x -> 6.x+1
 by pre-populating the directories with the previous version to save some b/w.
 This could be the reason for what I see here.

 Now, if there were checksum files for everything, I knew which rpms I need

You just posted yesterday...

Anyway, you didn't give much context.  I can see from a google search
why you provided the interrupts output, but judging from what you
posted, that's not the problem.

Perhaps you have a CPU task that's running at 100%?  Did you try and
run 'top'?

Also, what version of CentOS are you running?  Are you running the
latest kernel?

Greetings again everyone. 

Can someone please respond to this? 

I am not sure what is causing this issue, however, others seem to have 
experienced it in the past. 

Could this be caused by the processor being damaged? 

Nothing has changed on the system, except for the heat warning shutoff when the 
water cooler died, and the system was not restarted until the new one was 
installed. 

Any input would be appreciated, however, no response at all is just 
disappointing.

Subject: kworker 100% of single core on mulit-core processor usage inquiry 

Greetings everyone. 

I am experiencing the kworker issue where a kworker is using 100% of a given 
core. 

This behavior was only observed after having installed a new water cooler, to 
replace a cooler that had died. (Sealed closed loop device from Corsair) 

The processor is staying around 40 degrees celsius as reported by the MB UEFI 
interface. (ksysguard shows between 29 degrees and 30 degrees, when running KDE 
4) 

I am unable to isolate a cause, or resolution for getting the kworker usage 
back to normal. 

Very basic description of specs are as follows: 

AMD FX-8350 (not overclocked) 

32GB Corsair memory (1866Mhz non-overclocked) 

Sabortooth 990FX MB 

I have checked the locations for interrupts which has been indicated online, 
however, I do not have any specific interrupts that are showing as even having 
a high integer value to unset. 

Here is the result of running the referenced command to view interrupts.

[CentOS] CentOS6.6 installation failure

2015-04-20 Thread lhecking

I have been installing CentOS for years using PXE, kickstart and NFS, but the
procedure fails with CentOS 6.6 for some reason.

A PXE-initiated, manual install goes through all the setup steps, and once
rpm installation has started, it dies after a few packages:

anaconda 13.21.229 exception report
Traceback (most recent call first):
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/yuminstall.py", line 1006, in _handleFailure
os.unlink(package.localPkg())
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/yuminstall.py", line 196, in callback
self.ayum._handleFailure(po, trynumber)
OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: 
'/mnt/source/Packages/mailcap-2.1.31-2.el6.noarch.rpm'

When a kickstart file is used instead, the installation dies at a different
package.

I have tried providing the OS installation files from different machines,
checked package integrity etc., but cannot figure out what is happening here.

The anaconda traceback file also has

12:19:59,354 WARNING : Failed to get file:///mnt/source/Packages/mailcap-2.1.31-
2.el6.noarch.rpm from mirror 1/1, or downloaded file is corrupt
12:19:59,354 WARNING : package download failure, retrying automatically

That said, installing 6.4 off the same NFS server works just fine.
