Re: [CentOS] CentOS 5.2 and SATA HotSwap
Hi, On Wed, Feb 18, 2009 at 10:57, Julio Rodanes - KNET ju...@knet.es wrote: I have read that the AHCI module allows hotplug but when I add a hot new SATA disk, the system don't detects it . Any idea of what the problem is? Even though it's hotplug, you have to give Linux a command so that it will scan the bus and add the disks to its internal tables. To do that, first you have to identify which SCSI host it will be your SATA controller, you can see a list of the ones you have with this command: ls /sys/class/scsi_host/ To identify which one is your SATA, look in /proc/scsi/scsi, for instance, if it's scsi4 there, it will be host4 in /sys. You can also look at dmesg or /var/log/dmesg and see the messages of when your other disks were detected, it will show it with names as scsiX or sd X:0:0:0. Also grep for ahci in dmesg, it might give you a clue. You might have multiple hosts in one AHCI controller, you might have to figure out which one your disk is connected, or scan all of them. Once you found which host it is, issue the following command as root: echo - - - /sys/class/scsi_host/hostX/scan I wrote hostX above, but you have to use the proper number, like host4 if your SATA is scsi4. This should work. Let us know how that goes. HTH, Filipe ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 5.2 + iptables + memcached Problem
I do have such a rule at the top of the rule set. Sorry I did not provide more context. The basic structure of my rule set is: 1. Deny some known bad packet types. 2. Accept ESTABLISHED, RELATED traffic. 3. Accept rules of various sorts (such as the memcached rules). 4. Deny all (catch all rule). I'm not an iptables newbie - I have used it for years and understand its basic operation. All my other rules work perfectly. This is why I am perplexed as to the memcached rules not working as expected and why I suspect a bug of some sort.

I always prefer hardware raid over software raid primarily for hot swap purposes, if a drive is dead I just yank it, replace it and don't have to worry about it, rebuild is automatic. This may be the case with linux software raid now I'm not sure, a few years ago hot swap was somewhat iffy and results varied widely on the controller(e.g. could panic/hang the box in some situations). Also root on raid is much simpler with hardware raid than software raid. If you have battery backed cache as yours appears to have, you have the added advantage of write back caching which can give higher performance. Out of the 400 or so raid cards I've used over the years I recall only 2, maybe 3 of them having trouble(failing/faulty).

I intend to read manual of these two when I got my machine to test, for a while maybe I can get some insight from those who have already experience using these tools. You can do all that with both tools. Bacula is tape oriented, so if you're backing up to tape it's going to be the tool for you. It also supports backing up to disk, but it backs up to disk as if it was a tape (a set of tapes, actually) which is kind of awkward. In my opinion, Bacula's user interface is kind of weird too. Backuppc backs up to disk only, but it has a great advantage that it finds duplicate files and uses hardlinks to reduce storage usage, so it can usually back up much more data than Bacula in the same space. Another advantage of Backuppc is that it backs up using rsync or tar over ssh or smbtar for Windows, so in general you don't need to install an agent on the client machines. It's web interface is also very good. So, you should choose mainly based on the media you're using for backups. IMHO, if you still use tapes, forget the past and move to the future of disk-based backups, and adopt Backuppc as your tool. HTH, Filipe Hi Filipe, Thanks for giving me insights.

On the other hand, given bandwidth suitable for keeping up with changes via rsync, backuppc is perfectly capable of maintaining offsite backups over a vpn without transporting anything. And for life span you can use raid mirrors and replace a drive every couple of years.

Yes, tape for offsite copies are fine, but these days I don't see any reason why to back up directly to tape instead of staging to disk first. If you do backups to disk with BackupPC, you can use dump to efficiently create an image of that filesystem to tape, and then send that tape offsite. Or, as another poster already mentioned, you can do your offsite through the network by using a remote BackupPC server or using rsync to keep a copy of your local backups on a remote machine.

I intend to read manual of these two when I got my machine to test, for a while maybe I can get some insight from those who have already experience using these tools. You can do all that with both tools. Bacula is tape oriented, so if you're backing up to tape it's going to be the tool for you. It also supports backing up to disk, but it backs up to disk as if it was a tape (a set of tapes, actually) which is kind of awkward. In my opinion, Bacula's user interface is kind of weird too. Backuppc backs up to disk only, but it has a great advantage that it finds duplicate files and uses hardlinks to reduce storage usage, so it can usually back up much more data than Bacula in the same space. Another advantage of Backuppc is that it backs up using rsync or tar over ssh or smbtar for Windows, so in general you don't need to install an agent on the client machines. It's web interface is also very good. So, you should choose mainly based on the media you're using for backups. IMHO, if you still use tapes, forget the past and move to the future of disk-based backups, and adopt Backuppc as your tool.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 5.2 + SELinux + Apache/PHP + Postfix
I'm running CentOS 5.2 with SELinux in enforcing mode (default
targeted policy). The server hosts a PHP web app that sends mail. I'm
getting the following errors (see end of message) in my selinux
audit.log file every time the app sends an email. The email always
seems to get sent successfully, despite the log messages. However,
they do concern me and I would like to understand what they mean and
why they occur.
The first set of messages seems to relate to postfix being denied
attempts to create/read/write a temporary file in Apache's context. In
the second set, it seems to postdrop is attempting to do something
with apache's error log file.
Can anyone help make sense of this? I know I can create policy rules
to allow these actions. But I don't want to do that without
understanding the implications. For reference, audit2allow suggests
the following policy additions:
#= postfix_postdrop_t ==
allow postfix_postdrop_t httpd_log_t:file getattr;
#= system_mail_t ==
allow system_mail_t httpd_t:file read;
allow system_mail_t httpd_tmp_t:file { read write };
Any help greatly appreciated.
If these denials do not interfere with the normal workflow
of the application you may add dontaudit rules to your local policy.
The unnecessary access will still be denied but you won't get
these annoying messages in the logs.
There's a plenty of dontaudit rules in the base policy
shipped with centos. If you're curious you may install
/usr/share/selinux/targeted/enableaudit.pp
which is a base policy with dontaudit rules turned off.
