We also just switched to CentOS 8 from CentOS 6 spending around 6 months of work
in doing so, but the most important part of our infrastructure is on paid RHEL
licenses (i.e. hypervisors).


Back in the Before Times and RHEL 7 was at .1 or .2 I had a persistent kernel 
oops on a set of RHEL7 hypervisors. Since we had fairly well tricked out RHEL 
support licenses I opened a ticket and within a couple of weeks I had 
confirmation that yep, there was a known issue, and there was a fix entering 
testing. I asked for access to the fixed kernel. I was told no. I asked if 
there was a particular kernel version I could deploy temporarily until the fix 
was released.  Silence. I asked for a bug ID so I could maybe use that to 
figure out what kernel I could deploy until RH released the fix.  Silence.  
Meanwhile hypervisors are oopsing on me because the project didn't want to 
deviate from the vendor baseline.

Then I learned about Centos Plus. I reprovisioned a machine, picked a Plus 
kernel, and happy sailing. The project decided functionality was superior to 
arbitrary compliance in this case. Rebuilt the rest of that rack to CentOS 7 
and never looked back. Or bothered renewing as many and that level of support 
because the one time I really could have used it it was effectively denied.

Sometimes basing the most critical part of your infrastructure on CentOS was 
the only way forward.

Hello, Stephen, thank you for input.

Yes, these servers have the same firewall rules, and both of them have the same 
problem from time to time, most of time they are good.

Actually, these servers are newly installed to be used as the Glusterfs storage 
server, so not much data flowing at this time.


As a WAG - have you double checked to make sure there aren't any IP 
addressing conflicts in play?

Hey there,
what type of backup solution do you use on C7?


Thanks in advance


AMANDA - one config to encrypted LTO that are sent offsite and intended 
primarily for DR purposes, another config dumps a differently curated 
DLE list to virtual tapes kept on a local server.

Red Hat would stay as a distinct entity inside IBM. IBM has also
contributed to Free software, and especially Linux kernel.
I don't know how bad it is and the implications for CentOS...


That old war wound started aching again.

IBM:Redhat :: Oracle:Sun


Actually, it could have been *much8 worse: *Oracle* could have bought RH.

That *really* would have been an order of magnitude worse.


Not for Canonical...

Since the localhost4 approach worked, commend out the ipv6
localhost entries in your /etc/hosts file, then try:


IP6 is commented out


 dig @localhost localhost a


That works


again. If that works try:

 telnet localhost 143


This also works


once again. If those work, it would seem that your ipv6 is messed
up and your system is trying it first and not falling back to ipv4.

Regarding your nameserver list in /etc/resolv.conf. If you have a
working 127.0.0.1 nameserver you generally don't include external
nameservers in that list. So, if non-ipv6 things seem to work, I'd
remove the two non-127 nameservers from that list.


Removed the two nameservers. Still can't access mail. Getting
connection to storage server failed on the roundcube login page.




That you can now successfully get to "localhost" is good progress.
Seems you want to stay away from ipv6 networking issues unless/until
you resolve whatever that issue is.

Roundcube is, potentially, a totally separate issue. I don't use it,
so can only suggest minimal debugging ideas.

What is the hostname that you use to get to your roundcube instance?
Can you resolve that:

dig  a

If you get an answer, is the ipnumber correct?

Note, if the hostname for your roundcube instance is one of the ipv6
entries in your /etc/hosts file, I'd remove that - and either put in
an ipv4 entry or put an entry for it in your dns.



Thanks again! I still think it's a mail issue. I can't get mail using
usermin either.

Think I'm going to remove the TLS stuff from postfix main.cf that I added
yesterday and retry.


If I missed this further up thread my apologies - is SELinux enabled and 
are there any relevant exceptions being logged?
