SCSI hang when running under Ms Virtual Server 2005
Hi, I have tried to run both FreeBSD 4.10 and 5.3 under Microsoft's Virtual Server 2005. Both boot and work ok when virtual IDE disk is used. However, when trying to use SCSI disk (which seems to emulate an adaptec aic 7870 scsi adapter, so FreeBSD uses ahc driver) results in system hang after machine says waiting 15 seconds for scsi devices to settle. Has anyone else attempted this ? Ari S. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: HZ in RELENG_5? tcp_subr.c related

But I see only 100 interrupts/sec on clk (with systat) so is it true that the default HZ has changed from 100 to 1000 in RELENG_5? In RELENG_5, the default HZ for amd64 is 1000, but for all other platforms it is 100. So amd64 users will see a ten-fold decrease in tcp_isn_tick() running, but i386 (and other) users will see no change.

b_to_q to a clist with no reserved cblocks floods console
Hi, I have updated my system + kernel to 5-Stable from cvsup of around Feb. 21. It seems that since then, my console gets flooded with zillion lines, about once every second: b_to_q to a clist with no reserved cblocks Any idea where they are from and what's going wrong? Or is this related to a ports upgrade? Thanks, Rob. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - Easier than ever with enhanced search.

OK, now that we've established that it's not actually panicking, the overwhelmingly most likely cause of 'spontaneous reset' crashes is bad hardware. e.g. your power supply may be marginal and unable to hold up to peak loads, so your system will lose power and reboot when you exceed that load.

I have try to add set path = /sbin to dump script without success. Any suggestions? mksnap_ffs: not found dump: Cannot create /var/.snap/dump_snapshot: No such file or directory Sounds like you need to create /var/.snap/ creating /var/.snap/dump_snapshot is mksnap_ffs job. mksnap_ffs is launch by dump without full path and can't be found. mksnap_ffs is in /sbin folder. I'm I the only one here who dump -L in cron ?!?! -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

This issue was fixed in revision 1.56 of src/sbin/dump/main.c on January 4, 2004, and the fix is in both FreeBSD 5.3 and 5-STABLE. Sadly for you, FreeBSD 5.2.1 has version 1.55 of that file. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sbin/dump/main.c Why you're posting questions about 5.2.1 to freebsd-stable instead of freebsd-questions is something I can't answer.

Is this the C partition problem you refer to? bsdlabel: partition c doesn't cover the whole unit! bsdlabel: An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system utilities Could this possibly be at the root of my boot problem: disk1s1: FFS bad disklabel disk2s1: FFS bad disklabel It only seems to be a problem if I try to use slices as gmirror providers and shrink them to avoid the last sector collision with the whole disk. The c partition doesn't need to be shrunk by a sector since it's not used as a gmirror provider, and only the slices that end at the end of the disk/provider their slicing. So a disk with two consecutive slices, say a and d, only d needs to be reduced by 1 sector since a doesn't end at the end of the disk anyways. -Snow ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-geom To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- I sense much NT in you.
