[CentOS-es] driver controladora marvell 88se61xx

2010-01-09 Thread Osvaldo Rivas
Buenas lista:

Quisiera consultar con ustedes que puedo hacer para poder instalar centos 5.3 
en un equipo con una placa ASUS P5Q trabajando en modo RAID. La controladora 
del raid de esta placa es MARVELL 88SE61XX, probé cargar los driver que se 
encuentran en el cd-rom pero no sirven, la verdad que están marcados como 
driver para versiones de centos 4.5 de todas formas los probé. 

Quisiera aclarar que los discos no me los reconocen en la instalación siquiera.

Espero puedan ayudarme, si necesitan algún otro dato, a las ordenes.

[CentOS] chroot a few apps

2010-01-09 Thread Vadkan Jozsef
Hi.

What kind of chroot should I use, if I want to make a more secured
desktop, running e.g.:

pdf reader
webbrowser
audio player
video player
openoffice
picture viewer
mua
ooo
virtualbox

e.g.: if theres a javascript vulnerability in google chrome [I haven't
heard a NoScript extension for it :( ] a chroot would be good for
stopping it from doing something bad with the whole system.

or e.g.: I have to open a .doc file, that I don't trust, or a PDF can
contain malicious code :(

Any tips/docs/howtos?

Thank you!

[CentOS] Is it safe to run only the XEN kernel on dom0 host?

2010-01-09 Thread Rudi Ahlers
Hi,

I have an issue with my XEN servers, in that when I do a yum upgrade,
it upgrades the kernels, and then updates the grub.conf file to boot
with the normal Linux kernel, and not the XEN kernel - and I tend to
forget to update the grub.conf, until I reboot and see XEN isn't
running.

So, is it safe to remove the normal kernel  kernel-development, and
only run the XEN kernel?

This is what I have currently:

r...@usaxen03:[~]$ rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-xen-2.6.18-128.7.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.el5
kernel-headers-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5


When I want to remove kernel-headers, it wants to remove gcc as well:


r...@usaxen03:[~]$ rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-xen-2.6.18-128.7.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.el5
kernel-headers-2.6.18-164.10.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.6.1.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-164.9.1.el5



Do I really need gcc on the XEN dom0 host? The servers are all running

That happens because your first installation was not xenified. You can set 
the default kernel in /etc/sysconfig/kernel.

yes.

You do a vgscan and 'vgchange -a y' manually.  This should put the
right stuff in /etc/lvm/.

It is rare/unusual to 'add' LVM volumns to a running system from some
'outside' source (as you did via a disk transplant).  Linux installers
will do the vgscan and 'vgchange -a y' during the install process and
vgcreate updates /etc/lvm/, so the problem rarely comes up.

yum info replace, yum whatprovides replace, and yum search

Either you did it wrong or your repository information isn't correct.

but it's a common practice, I can't recall ever seeing a data sheet on
any storage array that showed it's performance numbers, unlike network
gear which often is filled with performance related information.

If your referring to the E and S series arrays they are roughly half
the performance of the F and T series. I don't believe E and S are
being sold anymore as new systems, when the T came out for example it
was only about 10-15% more than the S, and you get a ton more in
performance, addressable capacity, and features than the S(or E),
making it fairly pointless to go with an S or an E. I also suggest against
the F200 as well, their systems are at their best when you have more
than two controllers, any system can run on only two, so the extra
online scalability comes at a small premium and gives good peace of
mind, even if you never add the extra controllers.

 My main problem is bandwidth and workload.  Another problem is I am
 being told there is such a thing as Triple Disk Mirroring.  Then I am
 being told that there is not and all it is only Raid 1 with just
 Replication to another Volume Set, sorta like a LVM Snapshot so to
 speak.  Last thing is I am told GE is just rebranded Brocade.  Thanks
 for the info  link.

There absolutely is triple mirroring, and probably quadruple as well,
but most systems don't support it. Synchronous(and/or/both asynchronous)
replication is of course available as well. Triple mirroring really
is a waste of resources when your performing RAID at a sub-disk
level like they(and some others IBM XIV, Compellent, Xiotech) do. True
data availability would come from synchronous replication(up to 130
miles away I think is the limit, latency is the reason, ~1.3ms is max)
to another system.

I'm not sure what GE(makes me think of General Electric) is but there
are quite a few re branded Brocade switches out there, and probably
Qlogic as well.

Their latest code release 2.3.1 just went GA yesterday, been shipping
on new boxes for a few weeks, largest software update in the company's
10 year history, some pretty impressive new things, some of which I
can't talk about just yet but they're more than happy to tell you in
person.

I've been waiting for over a year for it myself so am pretty
excited, upgrading next weekend.

Getting kind of OT though if you want more info email me off-list,
always happy to talk about this kind of stuff I love fancy technology.

Ok, so I'm not the only one who's getting this :)

In this case, I suspect the repository is incorrect, or it's not in a

Re: [CentOS] Laptop for CentOS-5

 Assuming you wanted an answer... For one thing the powerbooks got 'close
 lid, sleep, open lid wake up, grab a fresh network connection and
 continue' right about a decade ago and the odds of that working with any
 PC hardware/OS combination even today are pretty dismal and it makes a
 laptop nearly useless if you can't just open it in a new location and
 click the next link on a page within a few seconds.

It is personal preference. I have a Macbook Pro running Fedora 12 just 
fine. It does go to sleep and wake up and reconnect with ZERO issues.

I also have a Macbook Pro running CentOS just fine as well. However Fedora 
is a lot farther ahead driver wise and application wise. It also took 
longer to configure CentOS to a good state.

so that's all that is required.

I agree.

I have CentOS 5.4, Fedora 12, Debian stable and MacOS 10.6 on this
MacBook Pro (2008).

I use Fedora when I need flexibility (like in the train or plane), and
CentOS when I'm settled down somewhere and want a powerful computer
for (java) development.
Both share an LVM logical volume with all non distro stuff (like
checked out code, maven repository, media files, etc.)

You pay a bit more for the Apple hype, but they are excellent computers IMHO.

Yes, it is not impossible to make other OS/hardware combinations work, just 
rare.  Some hardware doesn't even provide a 'lid open' event.  I just ran into 
that with a new sony CW model.  It came with windows 7 configured to only sleep 
a short time, then hibernate instead of the hybrid mode you'd obviously want 
for 
a quick wakeup as long as possible, and it makes you hit a key or the power 
button before it wakes up.

 I also have a Macbook Pro running CentOS just fine as well. However Fedora 
 is a lot farther ahead driver wise and application wise. It also took 
 longer to configure CentOS to a good state.

I'm not sure I'd call it running CentOS if you had to add 
drivers/components/firmware to make it work.  Even on my dual-boot laptop I 
tend 
to run the linux partiton under vmware player instead of booting into it.  One 
of the things I use it for is to access linux disks through a USB -ide/sata 
adapter cable and the 2.x versions of vmware handle that well enough to be 
usable.

On Sat, Jan 09, 2010, Rudi Ahlers wrote:
I am used to using the replace command to quickly replace strings in
file, but it's not available on some of my fresh CentOS 5.4 servers.

yum info replace, yum whatprovides replace, and yum search
replace doesn't show me which package(s) to install to get it. So,
does anyone know which package to install to get the replace
command?

Google doesn't help either since the work replace is too common

The original replace command that I used for years was from the
Kernighan and Pike ``Unix Programming Environment'', and is a
simple shcll script that uses their ``overwrite'' command to
safely edit a file in place.  The command syntax is:

replace old new file [file ...]

MySQL created their own replace command that has different
arguments and calling sequence (not having read KP obviously
which is one of the must-have *nix books :-).  I still use the
original KP version, renamed ``csreplace'' to avoid conflicts
with the mysql version.  I've attached the csreplace and
overwrite scripts which can be put someplace in PATH.

A *MUCH* more flexible tool that can be used for editing in place
is Ralf Engelschall's shtool script available here:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/shtool/

 GNU shtool is a compilation of small but very stable and
 portable shell scripts into a single shell tool. All
 ingredients were in successful use over many years in various
 free software projects.  The compiled shtool script is intended
 to be used inside the source tree of those free software
 packages. There it can take over various (usually non-portable)
 tasks related to the building and installation of such
 packages.

The only problem I've found with shtool's subst option is that
giving it a bad ``sed'' command results in zero length file(s) so
it's a good idea to test complex substitutions.

 drivers/components/firmware to make it work.
 
 So what you are essentially saying is any OS that you install on any 
 machine, that you have to add drivers to, is not running that OS??

Not in the sense that you can say the OS 'works' on the hardware in question. 
You might say you can make it work if you add/replace parts.

Ok, I will say this is totally subjective. I will conclude by saying that 
my Macbook pro is running CentOS 5.4 just fine, with no hardware removal 
or replacement :)  I have an older Toshiba satellite used just for a 
file server, and it has 5.3 on it. To me, and employees, they work just 
fine. Almost any OS, M$ Windows included, has needed drivers at some 
point.

Agreed on the subjective point.  If you don't need features, you don't miss the 
fact that they might not work and some people might use a laptop as a 
stationary 
desktop replacement.  But for me, the point of a laptop is to be able to resume 
your work in a matter of seconds anywhere.  On the other hand, my use might be 
atypical in that I keep a Centos freenx session running on a stable server and 
can reconnect to it from anywhere if I want a full environment and would do 
that 
rather than try to duplicate it to run standalone on a laptop. This works the 
same with the NX client whether it runs on linux, windows, or OSX so I usually 
just run thunderbird and firefox locally because they are equally OS-agnostic 
and don't mind network restarts and fire up the NX connection for my Centos 
work, with a VMware image available if I need it.  If I didn't have a stable 
server or reasonable connectivity everywhere I might need a different approach.

 The grub 'module' option is new to me and I am unsure how this maps to
 lilo (the lilo docs don't talk about multi-boot, which I guess is what
 is going on here, at least from reading the grub docs).


You'll need to do some work.  GRUB is smarter than lilo:

 I have a defective HP-Compaq nx9420 and so I am looking to replace

 Others have already suggested it, but I figured I'd chime in.  I have
 had good luck with Thinkpads and CentOS.  I am currently running CentOS
 5.4 on a T61 and an X31.  If you decide to go that route, you will
 probably need to spend a little time hacking at the setup to get it to a
 level where you are happy with using it.  However, I believe you'll
 ultimately be satisfied as I am.  thinkwiki.org is a good resource for
 figuring out what you need to get certain laptop features to work
 properly.  Also, you will likely need to use rpmforge and/or elrepo drivers.

My Dell Latitude D400 works beautifully with CentOS 5.4. I even wrote
a Wiki on it on setting it up. I think the only thing I had to do by
hand was set up the volume up and down and mute buttons -- and
CentOS/Gnome provides an application for that. So, once I found that,
it was a snap.

I should mention, I also changed out my BroadCom WiFi card for an
Intel, since there is native CentOS support for Intel (the BroadCom
chip set happened to be one of the not fully supported versions).
That was about $15 from eBay, and the BroadCom WiFi card went into my
wife's Dell (she didn't have an internal card and uses XP).

 That's your opinion. I'm perfectly happy running CentOS on my Dell XPS
 M1330, and furthermore pretty much everything works fine straight out of
 the box:

And my Dell Latitude D400 works great.

 Those that are happy don't always speak up. Mostly it's those who are
 unhappy or have things not working that you hear from.

Exactly.

[CentOS] Setup multiple bridges for use with KVM

2010-01-09 Thread Jacob Hydeman
Running CentOS 5.4 x64.

Have successfully bridged eth2 with br2 by following the instructions here:
http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Networking (under the RHEL section)

Have been running several KVM VMs successfully via this bridge.

I am now trying to bridge additional interfaces by using the same routine.
Each bridge is named to correspond with the ethX device its bridged with.

Example of ifcfg-eth0 script:
DEVICE=eth0
HWADDR=00:16:76:D6:C9:45
ONBOOT=yes
BRIDGE=br0

then of ifcfg-br0 script:
DEVICE=br0
TYPE=Bridge
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
DELAY=0

This is repeated 3 times for eth0-eth2 and br0-br2.

I've read somewhere that STP needs to be enabled when using multiple
bridges. I've tried adding STP=on to the ifcfg-brX scripts but with the same
result. Yes, brctl shows that STP is on.

The original bridge eth2-br2 continues to work but I can't get any traffic
across any other bridge. Either by dhcp or static ips.

Is multiple bridges a possibility?

Previous to moving to KVM I was running Xen Server on the same hardware. I
am just trying to recreate the network setup I had. I believe Xen Server
runs on top of a linux platform so such a thing should be possible.

Thanks,

Jacob

It is Highpoint rr2310 card. Yes, I know it is soft type.
  
I have two different rocket raid cards and both need to have the driver

need to remember to do it whenever the kernels bumps. This is true for 
rr174x and rr222x
The other thing both these need it to have sata_mv.ko removed!! If the

 Load average counts processes that are in iowait so your disks are probably
