Hey! We need an exact date!! ;-)

Nah, just kidding. It will be released when ready, right. I can wait. 

Keep up the good work dev-team!

Very true. I thinking that if he _was_ on an email blacklist, then his 
network might _also_ have been flagged as bad (by something else).

Hey, that is very cool.  Did not know such a thing existed.

Thanks for pointing that out ;-)

You're going to need a backup even _if_ you moving extents between PVs.

You add your new PVs to the VG that your existing PVs are in.  Then run
pvmove [0] to migrate extents from the old PV to the new one.  There are a
couple of examples at the link I referenced.

[CentOS] Reorg of a RAID/LVM system

[Harold Pritchett]

I have a system with 4 disk drives, two 512 Gb and two 1 Tb.
It look like this:

CentOS release 5.9 (Final)

The four 1 GB partitions (sd[abcd]1) are configured as a RAID 1 array with a 
single ext4
filesystem mounted as /boot.

Swap is Swap...

the two smaller drives (sd[ac]3) partitions are configured as a RAID 1 array 
containing an LVM
physical volume (md1).  the two larger drives (sd[bd]3) are configured as a 
RAID 1 array
containing an LVM physical volume (md2).

One of the 512 Gb drives is failing.  What I want to do is to replace the
two 512 Gb drives with 3 Tb drives, expand the RAID array on them and then
expand the LVM PV contained therein.  This much I can do.

I then want to move all of the date from the other PV into this one, and remove
the second PV, RAID array, and the two 1 Tb drives, leaving me with two 3 Tb
drves, a large RAID array and a single PV containing everything (except the 
/boot
and SWAP partitions.)

What I'm not sure about is how to move the date from the second PV to the
first so I can then delete the contents of the drive and physically remove them
from the system leaving me with only the two 3 Tb drives.

Help!

Thanks

Harold

Thanks to both Akemi and to Frank!

Yakemi's advice worked on Centos 5, and now that I've FINALLY upgraded
to 6.x, Frank's RPMS work fine for me too.

Ain't community support just grand? :)

I don't understand,... I can select very fine-grained selections in
Audacity. You probably need to zoom in on the track so you can position
the cursor properly, but once you've done so, you can select very
precisely.

Yes, that's what I expected.  But even after zooming in with
the zoom tool to where I see hundreths of a second, I still
cannot select less than a full second at a time.

What I think you're saying is: if you place the cursor at a location
that is, e.g., 1.43 seconds into the clip, right-click then drag (in
either direction) until you've selected the part you want to cut, that
Audacity moves the endpoints of you selection from where you put them
to a whole-second point?

because that's exactly what I've done manay times and it highlights
the part over which I've dragged the cursor, and I can cut it by
simply hitting the DEL key.

Or are you trying to do it in some different way?
I just wonder if this is an artifact from having started with an mp3 
rather than a proper wave file?

Just a thought.
i.e. mp3 looses information compared to the 44KHz sample of most wav 
files, thus when it creates the reconstituted wav file it is not 
anywhere near the same, and thus probably interpolates much of the wav file.

I've placed a screenshot in my web space at:

http://users.rcn.com/fredricksmith/Screenshot-korngold_01.png

of an Audacity session with a selected region that neither begins nor
ends on a 1-second bounary. With that selected, I could hit the DEL key
and poof! it goes away.

Note that at the bottom of the window it displays the begin and end
points of the selection, so you can see what has been selected.

This is Audacity 1.3.12 Beta from the epel repository. Is that the
one you're using?

Dunno the exact number of hops but it's always long
but I only have 1 WISP so I don't have a choice.

It goes from my laptop to my home broadband router to my 
radio & antenna on the roof to the WISP antenna and at that point 
it bounces a while within the WISP's network before exiting on 
some backbone on it's merry way to centos.

The ONE STOP prior to centos.org is the last stop; but all other
web sites work. So, my "assumption" is that Centos.org is blocking 
me. I didn't think about this when I first posted this thread, 
but then someone told me that they ran a traceroute and there was 
only ONE STOP after where it stopped for me, so, that's when the 
light bulb lit.

Now, as to WHY they're blocking me - that I asked their webmaster 
by mail, earlier today.

Nice site. I see blacklists, whitelists, Yellowlists, neutralized, 
and even not listed as reports, and ALL (even the not listed) came 
up with zero.

The file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Media.repo has a line that says

That's not true - there are several phases to smtp delivery and you
can reject at most of them.   You just have to have a mailer where you
can control the operations at the  right place.   Using sendmail with
MimeDefang as a milter gives you about as much control as possible if
you want to parse/scan headers and content and react accordingly.

The only blacklists I know about involve mail and require the
receiving machines to actively choose to do lookups and reject based
on the result.  Nothing should be dropping/blocking other types of
traffic.There are an assortment of 'looking glass' sites on the
internet where you can originate traceroutes and check that BGP routes
for source and targets are being propagated.
This seems to be a directory of those sites: http://www.lookinglass.org/

you can't parse the headers until you read them, and you can't read the 
headers until you accept the incoming message.   once you've accepted 
it, you can't bounce it back to the sending server via refusing the 
connection, and if you try and bounce it to the 'from' address you'll be 
spamming a lot of innocent parties who's email addresses have been 
forged on said headers.

so, if you use header parsing, all you can do is quietly drop the message.

You could try checking something like

to rule out blacklisting as the issue.

Oh. great. Have any bouncing mail when centos.org disappears? I have this
happen a number of times a year, and yell about it every time. They use
dnsorbs, who I say use a blacklisting methodology that worked 15 years
ago, but is a complete disaster now, when one hosting co (as I have now),
or ISP (say, roadrunner in Chicago, which provides one third or one half
of *all* of Chicago's net access), and both have mail go through one
mailserver address... and when a few idiots get their systems or sites
compromised, dnsorbs instead of blocking each domain, blocs ALL the
hundreds of thousands of folks innocently emailing through their service
provider or hosting site. They don't seem to parse headers, and go *past*
the mailserver to the culprit. Thank you, I prefer fail2ban's methodology.

Right, that's given you by your cable modem or router. Can you see what
that is on that ISP-provided box? Alternatively, add well-known
nameservers to that file, which will be overwritten when it's working
again. For example, you could add
nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

Assuming you're in Santa Cruz, I'm not more than 20 miles from you, 
but, I'm using a mountain WISP (with radio relays on all the hilltops), 
so that's likely why I have many more hops than you do.

Here is my traceroute with a bit more detail (my local stuff
is redacted, for privacy).

What I now know (that I had not known prior), is that the hop you see at 20 is 
the 
penultimate hop. 

So either hop 20 is not forwarding the packets, or the final destination is
not acknowledging them.

Someone suggested I might be on a blacklist, somehow, and that, at least, 
would make technical sense.

I have a fixed IP address at home.

After hashing this out on alt.comp.freeware all morning, 
someone surmised that my static public IP address might
have been added to a blocklist in the past few days, 
either by the penultimate hop or by centos.org itself. 

So, the question morphs to whether or not we have tools at
our disposal which can pinpoint which entity is blocking my 
IP address? 

Note: I left a phone message at the DNS registrant for 
the penultimate hop and I left an email for the centos.org
webmaster.

Well, I must admit I never even knew that file existed.
Here is what it has in it:

$ cat /etc/resolv.conf

which is only 8 hops to that same LosAngeles1 gateway.

anyways, I never have any problems seeing it, so my guess is, your 
problem is in the first 15 hops you didn't show.

btw, the traceroute worked from my host using both -I and -T (icmp and 
tcp respectively) traces.

Interesting. I get to 20 (except for me it's 15), and www.centos.org is
the next hop (16). Now, I *do* have fat pipes and good connections (this

Have you spoken to your ISP? When you try the traceroute, and it fails,
have you tried other well-known locations, like google.com, or
slashdot.org?

Also, have you compared the contents of /etc/resolv.conf now, and again
when centos.org isn't visible?

Sounds like either a firewall, spam, or nameserver issue.

[CentOS] What can I do to UNDERSTAND why I can't reach centos.org (but everyone else can)?

[Rock]

What can I do to UNDERSTAND why, periodically, I can't reach 
www.centos.org (but everyone else can)?

Every few months, http://www.centos.org just drops off for me
and for me only. It's not the web site, because I can reach it
via a proxy (e.g., TOR browser bundle) and other tests show it
to be alive (e.g., http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/centos.org
or http://traceroute.monitis.com).

But, for me, I just can't reach it by any means. 

Mike Easter kindly determined "centos.org does not echo ICMP or UDP
pings, only TCP, and its associated netblock level3 doesn't echo UDP, 
but does echo ICMP and TCP."

But, for me, this is what a traceroute returned just now on Centos:

What I think you're saying is: if you place the cursor at a location
that is, e.g., 1.43 seconds into the clip, right-click then drag (in
either direction) until you've selected the part you want to cut, that
Audacity moves the endpoints of you selection from where you put them
to a whole-second point?

because that's exactly what I've done manay times and it highlights
the part over which I've dragged the cursor, and I can cut it by
simply hitting the DEL key.

Or are you trying to do it in some different way?

I've placed a screenshot in my web space at:

http://users.rcn.com/fredricksmith/Screenshot-korngold_01.png

of an Audacity session with a selected region that neither begins nor
ends on a 1-second bounary. With that selected, I could hit the DEL key
and poof! it goes away.

Note that at the bottom of the window it displays the begin and end
points of the selection, so you can see what has been selected.

This is Audacity 1.3.12 Beta from the epel repository. Is that the
one you're using?

Eventually, yes ... thats how it goes, right?

We are working on the consolidated tree, spinning isos, QA'ing those, etc.

Yes, that's what I expected.  But even after zooming in with
the zoom tool to where I see hundreths of a second, I still
cannot select less than a full second at a time.

Nux, I was hoping to find a gui to do it all.  For now I'll try
using audacity to find the start/finish times and then ffmpeg
to extract.

Re: [CentOS] Newbie - yum update and repos problems

Oh, ok. But I didn't specify to use c6-media?  I was just using the command
yum update or yum install php*
How do I tell it not to use c6-media?
Thanks,

did you specify to enable the c6-media repository on your yum command 
line?c6-media is a reference to the centos6 DVD, and its looking to 
see if its mounted in /media/CentOS or /media/cdrom or /media/cdrecorder

I've /never/ messed with c6-media, as I don't use disks hardly ever, and I'd
rather get the latest rpms from the update respositories.

I don't understand,... I can select very fine-grained selections in 
Audacity. You probably need to zoom in on the track so you can position
the cursor properly, but once you've done so, you can select very
precisely.

 Without posting any details like what version of the driver you are
 using, or a copy of your xorg.log file showing the errors it's
 impossible to say or do much other than guess at the problem.

 However, I have done my best to test your scenario. The latest NVIDIA
 driver to support your hardware (from elrepo) is kmod-nvidia-304xx, the
 304 series legacy driver (if you are unsure, trying installing and
 running nvidia-detect from elrepo which will advise you of the correct
 driver for your hardware).

 I can tell you that this driver works fine with the 6.4 update. There
 was some doubt about whether older drivers would support 6.4 as Xorg
 received an ABI update to 13.1 in the 6.4 release which older display
 drivers might not support. However, I have confirmed that the 304.xx
 legacy drivers and the latest 310.xx series NVIDIA drivers both fully
 support the version of Xorg shipped with 6.4

 So, my best guess is that you were maybe running an old version of the
 NVIDIA drivers and needed to update? But as I said above, without any
 further clues to work with I'm really guessing in the dark.

If you're only interested into cutting out part of the audio, ffmpeg 
can extract certain intervals and I think it has a finer granularity.

[CentOS] suggestions for simple audio editor

[Carl T. Miller]

I want to grab some sound bites out of several mp4 files, so I
extracted the audio portion into wav files to make editing easier.

After trying several Google searches, it looks like audacity is
the audio editor of choice, but I'm finding it very difficult to
work with.  Notably I am not able to make a selection with finer
granularity than a full second.

Are there any simple audio file editors that you can recommend?
I'd like to find something more intuitive than audacity, but am
not having much luck with my searches using yum and google.

Hello,

that solved the issue. I'm now running Centos6.4 with package 
kmod-nvidia-304xx.

and I tried nvidia--detect as well:

-bash-4.1# nvidia-detect
Probing for supported NVIDIA devices...
Found: [10de:0247] NVIDIA Corporation C51 [GeForce Go 6100]
This device requires the NVIDIA legacy 304.xx driver (kmod-nvidia-304xx).

Thanks for helping me out.

That indeed sounds like the issue. Try (re)installing the latest version 
that supports your hardware, kmod-nvidia-304xx:

yum install kmod-nvidia-304xx

and reboot.

Hello,

thanks for looking in to this.

Indeed, I should have included xorg.log. It took me longer than it 
should have to realize it was a "graphical issue".

Not updating could be the issue, I installed kmod-nvidia but never ran 
an update with Elrepo repo enabled.
I will test that and report back.

[CentOS] CentOS 6.4 in the making perhaps?

[Sorin Srbu]

I see Johnny Hughes has released CR-updates for CentOS 6.

Is CentOS 6.4 brewing yet then? 8-)

It seems that CentOS currently has HPLIP v 3.10.9 and you will need to 
install a later version as it needs v 3.11.1 or later.
see 
hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/models/laserjet/hp_laserjet_professional_m1213nf_mfp.html

 This will be very helpful to me if anyone can inform me the 
technique to operate this printer in centOS 6.2.
   Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,

You give very little information. Is this a desktop system, rather than 
a headless server? Are you running gnome desktop or KDE?

Have you tried anything to get this going?
i.e. have you used >System>Administration>Printing to add the printer? 
(assuming the CentOS default gnome is your desktop system).
Two minutes with google and it seems that this device is supported under 
Linux with their HPLIP open source printer system for some 2000+ HP 
printers.



 This will be very helpful to me if anyone can inform me the 
technique to operate this printer in centOS 6.2.
