Re: [CentOS-virt] Vmware to KVM - possible?

2010-07-26 Thread Sergiy Yegorov
I have successfully migrated VM`s from ESXi to KVM. To convert disk I use next 
command:
qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O qcow2 dist-flat.vmdk disk.img
You also can use raw instead of qcow2. 
But I have some troubles with MS Windows machines. It falls to BSoD caused by 
lame disk drivers.

It depends on which clients are you going to virtualize, personally I
like using KVM for the simplicity to run Windows and Linux guests.

Re: [CentOS-virt] which virtualization platform to choose

2010-07-26 Thread compdoc
KVM seems to have a future in centos. 

I have a couple of servers running kvm, with only 4 cores per server. I tend
use 1 real core for each virtual cpu assigned to the guests, because I don't
need that many guests. So, I can't speak to scaling...

Performance is excellent, however. It's been a year or more since I've tried
ESXi or xen on ubuntu, but I was always disappointed in the speed at which
the guests ran. 

That's why I turned to xenserver for its speed and GUI, and then to KVM for
its speed and complete control over things like nics and network
configurations.

KVM works great

Perhaps you could run a test lab with the same VMs under KVM, but I
can assure you performance will not be overkill, just 5-7% more,
nevertheless KVM seems to be more stable on my Server Xeon X3440, 8GB,
PERC 6, 8TB running 8 Windows 2K3 R2 VMs, it has been running for six
months now without downtime.

Re: [CentOS-virt] Vmware to KVM - possible?

2010-07-26 Thread Marc Morata
If you are using ESX/i remember that this hypervisor uses 2 kinds of disk
type (in 4.0.x). VMDK monolithic flat and VMDK monolithic sparse. This disks
types are directly supported from kvm.

Monolithic flat is compounded for 2 files.
  * disk.vmdk is a text file with disk info
  * disk-flat.vmdk is a raw disk

You can load disk-flat.vmdk directly in kvm.

It depends on many things.

If your hardware doesn't have CPU virtualization extensions,
then you only have one choice - Xen.

If you want to use 32bit host OS, then you only have one choice - Xen.

And if you run mainly Linux VMs then Xen is a good choice.

Yes. All hardware has virt extensions...

Yes... All software is 32 bits

No... Mostly software is Windows based here...

 What you thing about???

As far as running 15 VMs, whether your hardware is suited to do that depends on 
how many spindles worth of SAS drives you have (improves concurrency), how busy 
your VMs are (IO and proc), how much the guests are swapping in case you're not 
giving them enough memory.  And if you're not running virtio drivers, you 
should!

I don't have the numbers, but several months ago I tested a few different 
Iometer meter workloads on Server 2003 R2 guests on PE1950 hardware against 
equivalently-matched VMs on the 1.x version of a popular proprietary product 
(dedicated memory instead of its default swap-mem-to-host-disk; also running 
the guest extensions), Xen on CentOS 5.4 with a then-recent build of GPLPV 
(meadowcourt.org/downloads) on the guests, and KVM (also CentOS 5.4) with 
somebody's build of unsigned virtio Windows drivers (was on a /~public_html 
from redhat.com I think).

Results: Xen+GPLPV beat out KVM+virtio enough to be considered significant, but 
their difference seemed small compared to the margin they beat the other 
contender by.  The proprietary one also had massive CPU load on the guest 
generated by running the test that the others didn't have.

Obviously that's all very vague, but then again I'm sure somewhere I've 
accepted a EULA that says I'm not allowed to share benchmarking results for 
certain products :-).

I'll be keeping Xen (and therefore CentOS 5.x) around to run Linux guests 
blazingly fast on still-usedful hardware.  Everything else I'm (slowly) 
migrating to KVM in the interest of tracking with upstream.  Xen's slight 
performance edge on Windows will be missed.

YMMV.

Yes... All software is 32 bits

I think he meant if you had a 32bit host to run the guests on, and did not
mean 32bit guests. If your hardware has virt extensions, then it's a 64bit
host. 

KVM certainly runs 32bit and 64bit guests, and it runs linux guests just as
well as windows...

Hola Carlos,

Tu memoria USB, ¿qué modelo es?.

Revisa la configuracion de mtab y fstab -estando conectada la memoria- y 
escribe los resultados.

Revisa en los dispositivos si ha sido detectada, sino has un dmesg y escribes 
tambien los resultados.

Por ultimo, prueba en otra version de linux, en otra PC, si funciona, sera la 
pc o el driver en centOS que no esta funcionando correctamente. También puedes 
probar otra memoria USB en la PC que no es detectada, y si te funciona, hazlo 
saber.

Nota: Si compilaste tu kernel manualmente seguramente pueda que  no hayas 
activado las funciones adecuadas.

Exitos,

[CentOS] Php 5.2.x support ends

2010-07-26 Thread Bob Hoffman
Thinking of just sitting on this for awhile? Thoughts?



 Last release for PHP 5.2  updates for 5.3

PHP Logo The users of PHP 5.2 should upgrade to 5.3 at their earliest
convenience, as the active support of the 5.2 series came to an end with the
release of version 5.2.14 earlier today. PHP 5.2.0 was released almost four
years ago and according to the release announcement,
http://www.php.net/archive/2010.php#id2010-07-22-1

 the developers say that, in future, any further security fixes will only be
released on a case-by-case basis. Version 5.2.14 fixes about 60 flaws, some
of which present security risks such as potential memory leaks in string
functions.

PHP 5.3.3 was released
http://www.php.net/archive/2010.php#id2010-07-22-2
 at the same time, containing approximately 100 bug fixes. Among the
security-relevant bugs are buffer overflows in the native MySQL driver. This
release also contains an incompatible change which concerns methods with the
same name as the last element of a namespaced class name. PHP no longer
treats such methods as constructors, instead regarding them as arbitrary
methods:

That is an upstream note.

Red Hat will support PHP 5 as shipped by them until the EOL of RHEL 5.

Though there are rumors that with release of Update 6 RHEL 5 will come
with an additional PHP5.3 package set - PHP 5.3 is an ABI change. Like
RHEL 5 Update 5 comes with additional samba3x and postgres84.

 Thats where this whole thing started from. The problem is that the

 So the thinking is that if there is a generic backend info pool of all
 this information, changelog, package payload, package headers, metadata
 around the packages, their relationships with each other and then
 amalgamate that into an ( hopefully ) easy to use backend, we can then
 write multiple frontends - each with its own utility.

 Ideally I'd like to just work on the backend and release a generic api
 around it using rest/json for everyone to scratch their own itch :)

 Spent a few hours working on this over the weekend and feeling quite
 confident that there should be something usable soon.

Re: [CentOS] how to install centos on the attached external usb hard disk?

 I tried to install from the installation media . I put the install cd and

Done that way I'd be surprised if you had a bootable machine
Unless you mean tried to install within the vbox session... /dev/sda
would most likely wipe out your internal hard disk (where you said you
have windows installed).

What are you actually trying to accomplish? You should note that grub
will not always play nice being installed on/running from an external
usb drive if you are intending to use it as a portable distro... no
guarantees that the device.map will be valid from one machine to the
next...

Hi , all :

 I  installed two ldap tools in two servers :
 one is called 389 ldap serverwhich is installed 389 ldap tool in it ,
and the other is  called CentOS openldap server which is installed openldap
tool in it .

So I have an problem  about the account synchronization in two servers.
That means ,  If I delete  one account from  the 389 ldap server,
then that account also does not exist  in the openldap server

Could someone give  me some suggestions ?

By the way, the two servers  are installed the CentOS 5.3 x86_64 .

You can install PHP 5.3.2 from REMI repo, which is dependant 
on EPEL repo.

You will need to setup the yum-priorities plugin, and only 
enable REMI repo to install newer packages.

I had to set my priorities for REMI the same as Centos base 
repo.

To enable the REMI repo use:

yum --enablerepo=remi install php php-cli php-devel

# Name   : php
# Arch   : i386
# Version: 5.3.2
# Release: 2.el5.remi
# Size   : 3.3 M
# Repo   : installed
# Summary: The PHP HTML-embedded scripting language. 
(PHP: Hypertext
#: Preprocessor)
# URL: http://www.php.net/
# License: PHP
# Description: PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. 
PHP attempts to
#: make it easy for developers to write 
dynamically generated
#: webpages. PHP also offers built-in database 
integration for
#: several commercial and non-commercial 
database management
#: systems, so writing a database-enabled 
webpage with PHP is
#: fairly simple. The most common use of PHP 
coding is probably
#: as a replacement for CGI scripts.
#:
#: The php package contains the module which 
adds support for the
#: PHP language to Apache HTTP Server.

Installing REMI PHP will also update mysql server to 5.1.8

Always a dilemma. The very beauty of upstream therefore CentOS is that 
security issues will be backported to our current installations. In a 
hosting environment, you don't have to worry about breaking people's php 
websites/apps. The downside is the long lived old php versions do not 
run many of the new apps those same hosted clients wish to run. But in 
most cases, it's those same clients that build something and expect it 
to run forever and get very upset when they are told they must 
upgrade/rewrite their scripts.

Of note. I did a 5.2 upgrade on one of our local use systems. I don't 
know how much more is broken, but for certain the standard CentOS 
install of SquirrelMail is borked. We don't use it on that system, so no 
big deal. I thought I'd post this just so those with mission critical 
machines would know that upgrading PHP does have an effect on at least 
this one upstream package. I can only assume if one looked deep enough, 
some other things may be broken as well. It really is hard to test 
'everything' that a client may be using.

To me, the fact that PHP seems to have a 4 year life cycle, further 
strengthens the use of CentOS with its 7 year life cycle. Yes, it is an 
inconvenience from time to time. We don't get to count how many times it 
is a convenience however. You only hear when it doesn't or can't work, 
not how many times something continues to work due to this mindset.

BIOSs can be strange here too. Some, you tell 'em to boot from USB, and
they'll obey that just as long as the USB drive is plugged in on each boot.
As soon as they boot once without it, they stop looking for it until you go
into the BIOS to set it up again. 

On some systems hitting Esc on boot will give you choices between all
available devices, overcoming the BIOS having decided to subsequently stop
trying the USB after the first failure in looking there. But for something
as useful to administration as being able to boot from USB, getting BIOSs to
play along can be a pain.

Is there any reason you don't run 389 DS on both systems?  389 and 
OpenLDAP don't use the same synchronization protocol (AFAIK), so direct 
sync is probably impossible.  If you want to run them both, you'd need a 
management frontend that made the same changes to both systems.  I wrote 
such a frontend a while ago, but it's partially incomplete.

Re: [CentOS] ssh and dd

2010-07-26 Thread Gordon Messmer
On 07/25/2010 03:26 PM, Ross Walker wrote:

 Better then dd over ssh,

Well, no...  If you're trying to do an *image*, you'll find that cpio 
can't write an image out to a block device.

It's fairly easy to make dd as bandwidth efficient as clonezilla.

1: Clear all of the unused blocks on the local filesystem which you want 
to image:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/zero
# rm /mnt/zero

2: Copy your filesystem to a file:
# umount /mnt
# dd if=/dev/sdb1 of=/var/tmp/fs.img

3: Compress your filesystem image:
# bzip2 /var/tmp/fs.img

4: Copy the image to the remote system:
# ssh r...@remote 'bzip2 -dc | dd of=/dev/sda1'  /var/tmp/fs.img.bz2

Can't get much better than that for low-volume copies.  If you need to 
repeat the process on a lot of machines, clonezilla gives you some nice 
options.  If you're copying files instead of images, cpio might be useful.

why do you have two seperate LDAP directories in the first place?If

I can vouch for this as well. CentOS is probably the most widely used
OS for web servers, probably cause it's a free version of Redhat

[CentOS] OpenLDAP authentication, account expired when it's not.

2010-07-26 Thread Bill Campbell
I am trying to set up LDAP authentication for CentOS workstations, but
can't get it to authenticate properly.  Authentication fails saying the
account has expired when I know for certain that it has not (e.g.
ldapsearch authenticated with the appropriate uid and password returns
shadowLastChange 14816 and shadowMax 9).

The last time I did this seriously for authentication was using Apple iMacs
authentication against a SuSE Linux machine so it's entirely possible I'm
not doing the right thing today.  Most of the sites where we're using ldap
and nss are not authentication, but simply going to user's $HOME
directories to deliver e-mail to Maildir stores which doesn't require
authentication.  FWIW, I just checked an old SLES9 system authenticating
against another SuSE system by telnet'ing to its POP3 server and that works
as expected so it's something different in the way SuSE's PAM and CentOS'
works (using MD5 passwords).

I have done a fair amount of google/RTFM as well as reading the pam
documentation on the CentOS client machine, and don't find anything that
helps me figure out is causing it to think the account has expired.

The LDAP attributes that I think are relevant on a test account are below.
I don't see anything here that looks hinky, but then I am fairly ignorant
on PAM authentication.

shadowExpire 0
shadowFlag 0
shadowInactive 0
shadowLastChange 14816
shadowMax 9
shadowMin 0
shadowWarning 7

[CentOS] Keyboard macros, or another way?

2010-07-26 Thread Dotan Cohen
As I am now managing a CentOS server, I've installed 5.4 on a spare
desktop partition. A lot of my work is to copy and paste from various
text fields online and in a local text editor. Therefore, I would like
to define my keyboard's multimedia keys for some functions:
1) Clear field (might be accomplished by Select All then Delete)
2) Cut (standard Ctrl-X clipboard, not X11)
3) Copy (standard Ctrl-C clipboard, not X11)
4) Paste (standard Ctrl-V clipboard, not X11)

To start, the key that I would like to assign for Copy has these properties:
Scancode (showkey -s):
0xe0 0xba
0xe0 0xea

Keycode (showkey):
158

Keycode (xev):
166

I have tried these .Xmodmap lines and none of the worked to assign the
key to Copy:
keycode 158 = XF86Copy
keycode 166 = XF86Copy

I should note that I _think_ that XF86Copy affects the mouse
highlight-and-middle-click clipboard, not the ctrl-c|ctrl-v clipboard.
It is the later that I do need, not the former. If I get this worked
out, Cut and Paste should be easy (ha!). However, I am still at a loss
about what to do with the Clear field button.


Thanks.
