In addition, after checking the content of the file [1], I think that it
would affect unattended-upgrades only if the option
Unattended-Upgrade::InstallOnShutdown in
/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades would be true. Which is not
my case.
Anyway, I would appreciate if you could provide a way to check if the
/etc/init.d/unattended-upgrades is up and running.
Apparently, there's no such service, it's simply a hook to be run on
shutdown.
Have you checked if manually calling the program, e.g:
# unattended-upgrade --dry-run
works as expected?
Yes, I've tried it even adding the debug argument -d to your line above
and the program works with no errors. The only error is that it doesn't run
by itself, which would be great for an unattended task.
Does the package provide a cron job for scheduled unattended upgrades?
If not, you might need to write one yourself.
If it does, which I think it should, I can't spot it. I've checked
/etc/crontab and inside /etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly} and I
can't see any reference to unattended upgrades.
If you have to enable unattended-upgrades by yourself using a cron job, I
don't see what's the point of the paragraph:
If you would prefer to enable it from the command line, run
sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow unattended-upgrades.
inside /usr/share/doc/unattended-upgrades/README. If running the line
above is not enough to enable the script, they should document all the
steps to take.
This is from /etc/cron.daily/apt:
# auto upgrade all upgradeable packages
UPGRADE_STAMP=/var/lib/apt/periodic/upgrade-stamp
if which unattended-upgrade /dev/null check_stamp $UPGRADE_STAMP
$UnattendedUpgradeInterval; then
if unattended-upgrade $XUUPOPT; then
update_stamp $UPGRADE_STAMP
debug_echo unattended-upgrade (success)
else
debug_echo unattended-upgrade (error)
fi
else
debug_echo unattended-upgrade (not run)

which is provided by apt:

I usually have the precompiled binaries in one repo and the sources

Re: using LVM on a cluster
On Mon, Apr 30, 2012 at 02:20:31PM +0200, Frank Van Damme wrote: Hi. I am in the process of setting up a small 2-node HA cluster (for NFS, active/passive) with a shared disk for storage. Because Corosync and pacemaker look nice and good, I am trying to make it work with this combination instead of cman, which is what clvm is compiled for in Debian. There are a couple of howto's on the web on recompiling the lvm package with Openais or Corosync , so that's what I did. However, I'm still confused about the relationship between the cluster manager and the lock manager. If I understood right, this is the correct order in which things will be started: * start Corosync (or openais, if clvm is compiled with openais support instead) * you need to run some kind of resource manager * the resource manager (pacemaker) must have a resource defined that is the dlm controld - I tried starting dlm_controld at the command line, this seems to make clvm happy but unfortunately that command has no man page. * then, a bunch of files appear in /sys/kernel/config/dlm Actually, that controld should be started by the cluster resource manager is also something I just read on the web, and it sounds kinda odd to me. After all, you need to run an instance on every cluster node that accesses shared storage, right? [[I also tried the same thing but with a clvm compiled for openais, I read it uses another lock manager (Lck) but I'm not sure if and how this one is actually cluster-aware since it doesn't seem to rely on a resource defined in the cluster.]] [[Another thing that I find rather strange is that corosync is started wy at the end of the boot process, and clvm is started at the beginning, even if I changed the dependency of 'cman' to 'corosync' in clvm's init script. (clvm is started in rcS.d). But that's got more to do with lsb init scripting than with clustering, I suppose.]] If anyone could make me wiser or more educated about any of this, I'd be grateful :-) Hello, IIRC a distributed lock manager (DLM for short) is needed whenever an active/active resource is used, e.g. a shared filesystem. OCFS2 and GFS2 implement their own DLMs. For an active/passive cluster, you'd need to define your resources and a floating IP with stickyness WRT to those resources. A DRBD in master/slave would be more appropriate IMHO. Others might have other experiences/opinions or corrections. -- Primary key fingerprint: AD8F BDC0 5A2C FD5F A179 60E7 F79B AB04 5299 EC56 signature.asc Description: Digital signature

[ squeeze ] Grub2 RAID1 LVM2 boot failure
Hello,
Grub2 is failing to boot a softRAID1 + LVM2 squeeze box.
The error is can't find root_vg-root_lv. After that, it drops me to
a initrd shell, but my USB keyboard stops working, so I must
button-reboot.
There are two kernels installed.
I've attached grub.cfg. It's an automated cfg from update-grub2.
I already tried adding rootdelay without success in /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=rootdelay=15 quiet
Weird stuff: I have upgraded this box from lenny a week ago or
so. No problems booting.
It used to have a bpo kernel, but since squeeze's repo has the
same (2.6.32-3) kernel, I installed it and uninstalled the bpo one.
No problems booting yet.
Afterwards, I had to `/etc/init.d/vbox setup' to be able to use VBox
again (dkms failed, it seems) and re-run the makeselved script to
install the ATI propietary driver. This box has an ATI Radeon
HD 4550.
Kernel 2.6.32-2 stops booting, so I use 2.6.32-2 while I do some
research about it.
Yesterday, 2.6.32-2 booted without problems, but
since I had ATI propietary driver installed only for 2.6.32-3, I run
the installer in 2.6.32-2. Today this kernel doesn't boot either.
Follows some commands' ouput from within a rescueCD session.
