Currently I think it's the ancient firmware ... and maybe arcconf also crashes when it's not matching some minimum version of firmware. As mentioned in my other reply, I wait for that formatting to finish and then I want to try a firmware upgrade (to brand new 2008 ;-) ).

Currently I am in the Controller's BIOS or however you call that. I try to initialize and/or format the drive to make it available. The format runs for hours already. I prepared a FreeDOS iso with the latest firmware to flash ... after the formatting is done. Maybe then the compatibility is better. Or the controller becomes a paperweight. I have the impression that the controller hasn't yet fully recognized the disk, it is displayed differently in the array and disk menus of the firmware UI. >>> What do sg_verify /dev/sg11 return ? >> nothing > > Well, you have to check the return status: echo $?

So my issue seems to be: non-working arcconf doesn't let me "enable" that one drive. I *might* consider booting up the older Suse OS (still somewhere as well) via the flaky old Java-KVM and try things there. The server is ~600kms away, so my possibilities with Live-USB-sticks etc are limited right now.

[gentoo-user] RAID: new drive on aac raid
On an older server the customer replaced a SAS drive.

Thanks for the feedback. I am not at all set on ES, it just was part of an article I read lately, and so I started with that docker-compose stack example. Yesterday I spent quite a while trying to pipe the journald entries into the fluentd container, quite complicated and messy in a way. Maybe I look into mongodb as well, for example I found this small howto: https://www.fluentd.org/guides/recipes/maillog-mongodb In the end I look for a solution to aggregate (systemd/journald) logs into one pile of data and to be able to analyze stuff there. All these solutions seem rather complicated and overly "academic" to me ... but that might be my newbie status in this area.
[gentoo-user] aggregate logs into Elasticsearch
I am trying my first steps to collect and aggregate logs into a elasticsearch/kibana combo. I have them in a docker-compose stack and want to collect nginx and postfix logs for a start. So far I am confused by stuff like filebeat, logstash, fluentd ... brrr Could someone explain or even share some config files? How to set that up without dozens of packages installed etc (fluentd pulls a lot of packages, for example). My goal: collect logs of postfix, nginx into the docker-containers running ES, Kibana .. and learn my way from there. thanks, Stefan

I will consider this ... As I understand things here: the former admin *tried to* setup multipath and somehow got stuck. That's why it isn't running and not used at all. He somehow mentioned this in an email back then when he was still working there. So currently it seems to me that the storage is attached via "single path" (is that the term here?) only. "directly"= no redundancy That means using the lpfc-kernel-module to run the FibreChannel-adapters ... which failed to come up / sync with a more recent gentoo kernel, as initially mentioned. (right now: 4.1.15-gentoo-r1 ... ) I consider sending a Debian-OS on a SSD there and let the (low expertise) guy there boot from it. (or a stick). Which in fact is risky as he doesn't know anything about linux. Or I simply wait for my on-site-appointment and start testing when I am there. Maybe I am lucky and the debian lpfc stuff works from the start. And then I could test multipath as well. I assume that maybe the adapters need a firmware update or so. - The current gentoo installation was done with "hardened" profile, not touched for years, no docs so it somehow seems way too much hassle to get it up to date again. Additionally no experts on site there, so it should be low maintenance anyway.

[gentoo-user] multipath.conf : learning how to use
At a customer I have to check through an older gentoo server.
The former admin is not available anymore and among other things I have
to check how the SAN storage is attached.
As I have to plan a new installation with minimal downtime I'd like to
understand that multipath-stuff before any changes ;-)
The system runs:
sys-fs/multipath-tools-0.5.0-r1
and has a multipath.conf:

I see two devices sdc and sdd that should come from the SAN.
Could someone help me to research this in more detail?
This is a production server, I can't change much ...
I would like to find out how to reliably mount these SAN-devices into a
new OS (maybe a new gentoo installation is coming).
thanks, Stefan

Does anyone have a binary package for app-backup/amanda-3.4.5 he could share? I have to (test the) downgrade because of issues with 3.5.1, and my binary package doesn't install anymore (perl now upgraded etc) and the latest amanda doesn't talk to a legacy client which I can't upgrade at all Maybe someone could share the package via dropbox or so. thanks

I setup a small VM with debian 8 ... seems to work. thanks, sorry for the noise
[gentoo-user] requirement: ssh v1
At a customer we still have to keep up an ancient Suse 6.x VM, it has a
legacy and proprietary software in it which has to be kept alive.
No way to move that sw to another OS, don't ask ...
That VM only runs sshd v1 ... so far I kept my openssh package on the
host at 7.5 via masking ...
I now have to replace the gentoo server and set up the vitualization
host with debian ("don't ask" again ;-)).
I think of setting up a tiny gentoo VM as a "jumphost" into the Suse VM.
Will I be able to install such a "kept old" gentoo machine from scratch
or does some have a better idea?
I even thought of docker ...

I am back at that server and noticed that systemd-journald does not start anymore for a while. Adding "FEATURES=-xattr" I was able to install systemd-239 now ... at least it doesn't complain anymore and emerges OK after the n-th time (overwriting its own files now). After fiddling with journald-sockets and stuff I went for a reboot. Now no more --failed units.

upgrading from sys-apps/systemd-236-r5 to 239-r2 the emerge runs through and warns me that it overwrites files ... so it merges only partially ... after that I see: # systemctl --version systemd 239 (which is OK) # eix -I systemd [U] sys-apps/systemd Available versions: 239-r2(0/2) Installed versions: 236-r5 (which is scary) How to clean that up?

So I patched the older kernel and went back ... for now our one issue is solved (enabling ACLs for the filesystems) but 4.1.15 as kernel isn't quite up to date. I wonder if that FC adapter would need a firmware update or so. Too risky anyway, the server is a few 100 kms away etc etc

Am 11.09.18 um 12:54 schrieb Mick: Probably because you need a later version of gcc to compile the newer kernel with. I already installed gcc-6.4.0 and 7.3.0 some times ago. These should be modern enough? CONFIG_EXT4_FS_SECURITY=y CONFIG_EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL=y in my kernel ;-) Have you tried to enable these in the current kernel version and while running with the same gcc configuration? Yes, yesterday that failed as well. But I was able to compile 4.9.95 with the ext4 flags after a "make localmodconfig". Maybe this intermediary step does not "break" lpfc behavior. A reboot test will happen on friday or so. LONG WINDED APPROACH 1. Update your system: emerge -uaNDv system Assuming there are no major blockers which you will need to resolve one at a time, update your profile, switch your gcc to a newer version and continue with building a newer kernel. 2. Copy the current kernel's .config file to the latest stable. Change the / usr/src/linux/ symlink to point to the latest linux kernel source. Run 'make oldconfig' and go through all the changes as required. Then 'make clean, && make && make modules_install' and copy over the bzImage, .config and System files of the new kernel to /boot. Leave the old files in /boot intact. Update grub config and reboot. 3. Assuming all went fine, update your @world. WARNING: I would NOT try anything like this on a production system, but use a cloned fs to do all this work offline. Once I get something booting successfully I would then copy over binary packages and update the production system with them. SHORTER AND RECOMMENDED WAY === There have been many changes with gcc and gentoo profiles since kernel-4.1.15- gentoo-r1. This is why I would recommend you reinstall using a stage 3 for an easier life. Keep your /etc, kernel .config and /var/lib/portage/world files from the existing installation, so you have minimal configuration changes to perform, following reinstallation. Also keep the old kernel image in /boot in case you struggle getting a newer kernel to boot immediately. Thanks for your suggestions, I will consider preparing a new stage3-based VM somewhere. I went through @world-updates some months ago when I started maintaining that server. Most of the system is updated already but you are right, there are always hidden issues ... and I should keep downtime and effort/costs low --- as always As soon as I can update that IPMI module it gets easier to test things ;-) thanks, Stefan

I like btrbk:

I run btrfs as main filesystem on 3 systems (2 laptops, 1 main desktop)
and so far I am not looking back.
-> btrbk snapshots to local subvolumes ("time machine") + pulling btrbk
backups to external disks + btrbk backups to another server.
Works fine for me.

Another solution I use at customers:
amanda backups to so-called vtapes, virtual tapes = directories on 2 or
more usb-disks. As soon as you have the setup done, you get rotated
backups to those directories, incrementals and fulls mixed via amanda's
algorithm. OK, a bit of a learning curve, but you won't avoid that anywhere.

aside from that you might want to specify a different IO scheduler for
the SSD, I do that via udev rules like:
# 60-sched.rules
# set deadline scheduler for non-rotating disks
ACTION=="add|change", KERNEL=="sd[a-z]", ATTR{queue/rotational}=="0",
ATTR{queue/scheduler}="deadline"
# set cfq scheduler for rotating disks
ACTION=="add|change", KERNEL=="sd[a-z]", ATTR{queue/rotational}=="1",
ATTR{queue/scheduler}="cfq"
-
and I have a systemd-timer for running fstrim now and then

This is why I would like to remove sdi ... and the reason why I want to spot that specific hdd. Back then I used the trick to stress that specific disk by dd or something (read everything in for example) and let a person spot the disk by looking at the LEDs on the drive cages ;-) Maybe the faster way in this case. > The management tools for the other cards should provide this sort of > functionality. > > If you had used the raid card to create an array the management cli > tools with show that a specific port is dead and you query it for the > serial number. > > This doesn't help you with the sg mapping.

The disks were originally configured via StorMan under SLES10 or so, that server was a SLES server back then and I moved it to gentoo later on. I could boot into SLES to have StorMan again, but this leads to the mentioned boot-failure, so I want to avoid that for now. Something is wrong with this box and I have to spot if it's the disk(s) or the controller. All this while I am >600km away from the server. Thanks, Stefan

But the shown serials don't match the serials on the disk(s) :-( I also tried "-O" and searched for them. It seems that the controller adds some extra layer or something. The vendor is shown as "ICP" (wrong in a way), I see partitions and so (looks good). I have a list containing the actual vendors/serials on the physical labels, and the order in the physical slots, plus which label matches which /dev/sgX *but* the map between sg- and sd-devices isn't correct IMO. This is really a pita because I never can tell exactly which physical disk failed, I only see "ah, sdi1 was kicked out of the array" but then the search starts

I wrote to the samba- and the amanda-users-ml, and bgo: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593486 tl;dr :: * samba in portage is quite old, 4.2.x is EOL upstream (4.6.rc1 released already upstream) * samba in portage does not yet provide the bundled heimdal version that upstream samba works with (in terms of AD-DC services, other stuff works with mit-krb5 as well). * there's a test ebuild which uses that internal heimdal-version, see Comment 9 in the mentioned bug. But to me that is too unstable and risky to move a whole Windows domain to already.
[gentoo-user] samba as AD DC on gentoo
Do people here run samba-4.x AD DCs on gentoo? If yes, pls let me know of any traps or so. Yes, I read the wiki ;-) I currently prepare the migration of an old NT4-based domain (on a samba-PDC, gentoo) to AD (other physical box, gentoo as well). Did something similar last week (but with debian involved) and learned a whole lot. As there is no step back as soon as the Windows clients talked to the AD-DC I prefer to know as much as I can in advance. Thanks, regards, Stefan
Re: [gentoo-user] UDEV rule problem

Hi,
I have two external USB3 hard disk enclosures. They have the same
vendor, model and the same serial number (unfortunately).
Vendor, model and serial occur in the usb-subsystem only.
Since the hard drives within theses enclosures have different
capacities, there is a different ATTR{size} value in the block-subsystem.
But this doesn't have any vendor info.
How can I write to different udev rules to distinguish these two
external hard disks?
It's not udev, but why not use the UUIDs of the filesystems?
# ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
and then for example in /etc/fstab
UUID=028da5ef-4e73-405a-b739-d59204c54921 /mnt/externaldisk1 ext4

just a suggestion, I don't know your specific use-case

[gentoo-user] unstable samba-4.x, NT4 style domain
Yesterday I hit samba bug id 11538 at a customer. https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11538 We still run stable samba-3.6.25 on gentoo there, with a basic NT4-style domain. Simple use case, just users/passwords, no logon scripts, no server based profiles ... Now I consider upgrading to samba-4.2.9 (~amd64) to maybe get around that bug and in general improve support and compatibility with more recent versions of MS Windows (first w10 clients coming up ...). Does anyone in here has done that, how clever is it to stay with NT4-domain in combo with samba-4.x ? I just want to keep the steps small, I understand that an AD-based domain will be the way sooner or later. Any stability or performance issues with samba-4.2.9 in gentoo? Thanks for any feedback on this, Stefan

For the records and ml-archives: a later kernel (I am on git-sources now) solved the problem with Gnome in gentoo. Right now I am at a complete re-emerge (yes, with portage-tmpdir in RAM) to get everything performing well. Ordered plus 8 GB of DDR-RAM just in case ;-) I am still on stable amd64 right now as I would like to have that box rather maintenance-free (or at least "low maintenance"). Would using gcc-5.x make a noticeable difference?

Well, while you all are preparing to reply ...
;-)
... I simply went for it.
unmasked gcc-5.3.0, compiled it, and then recompiled @system and the
kernel ("make localmodconfig" to be curious) with it.
Booted it, snappy, fine!
right now gcc rebuilds itself, some more packages to re-emerge, load at
around 7.5, system usable, audio stream without a hickup.

Yes. ;-) well ... maybe. prepare for some learning curve. but it is worth it! > Am I better off using the hardware raid or software raid if I use btrfs? I would be picky here and separate "software raid" from "btrfs raid": software raid .. you think of mdadm-based software RAID as we know it in the linux world? btrfs offers RAID-like redundancy as well, no mdadm involved here. The general recommendation now is to stay at level-1 for now.

You can always step back and plug in the old disks. You could even add your new disks *beside the existing system and set up a new rootfs alongside (did that several times here). - There is nearly no partitioning needed with btrfs (one of the great benefits). I never had /boot on btrfs so far, maybe others can guide you with this. My /boot is plain extX on maybe RAID1 (differs on laptops/desktop/servers), I size it 500 MB to have space for multiple kernels (especially on dualboot-systems). Then some swap-partitions, and the rest for btrfs. So you will have something like /dev/sd[ab]3 for btrfs then. Create your btrfs-"pool" with: # mkfs.btrfs -m raid1 -d raid1 /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb3 Then check for your btrfs-fs with: # btrfs fi show Oh: I realize that I start writing a howto here ;-) In short: In my opinion it is worth learning to use btrfs. checksums, snapshots, subvolumes, compression ... bla ... It has some learning curve, especially with a distro like gentoo. But it is manageable. As mentioned here several times I am using btrfs on >6 of my systems for years now. And I don't look back so far. - look up: https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Using_Btrfs_with_Multiple_Devices

And you lose the feature of protecting your blocks against bitrot! btrfs comes with subvolumes and there is no need to use it on top of LVM. If you want separated /, /usr, /var etc cut yourself subvolumes out of your btrfs-filesystem, as mentioned. forget LVM with btrfs, it's inside already in a way ;-) I use btrfs on at least 3 systems for years now. No problems. OK, it gives a bit of a learning curve. One big pool of storage (depending on how many disks you throw into it), all the subvolumes share the same free blocks ... this may feel scary and strange at first.
