Re: dovecot, maildir, UFS 2 performance
#1 maildir stores each message in a separate file. I think I need to dedicate a separate disk slice for maildirs and decrease block size on it. How big should the blocksize be? i have everything (/) on single partition on most of my servers, including those having lots of mail. I don't think that is clever. sysinstall creates different partitions for / /usr /var and /tmp by default. There must be good reasons for this. #2 searching in messages is a common operation. Possibly read speed is very most important. But since there will be thousands of files to open, seek operation is also important. On which RAID array should I put mail dirs? dovecot do make indexes and scans all files only when rebuilding them. Except when my users search for a text in the message body. Unfortunately, they often do this. :-( assuming you configured your RAID1+0 properly it will give you MUCH more performance from 10 disks, than RAID1 on 2 - a bit faster - drives. IMHO you wasted money for SAS drives, simply having SATA only system could be enough. This is true for raw read/write speed. But some I/O operations are seek intensive. Seek time for a 15 000 rpm SAS disk is lower than it is for a 10 disk SATA2 RAID. Seek intensive operations should go to SAS. But I'm not sure what they are. If you say that dovecot is not seek intensive then you answered my question. :-) just keep your SAS drives for OS, ports, sources, logs, whatever, while /home on your big RAID1+0 volume.

FreeBSD xxx..com 7.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE #0: Sun Feb 24 10:35:36 UTC 2008 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 I am a little bit (ok, way) over my head here, but I have a 32bit linux binary that crashes on my amd64 system. If that isn't convoluted enough, it is also running in a jail. Specifically, if anyone cares, it seems to be the source metamod 3rd party add-on to valve software's source dedicated server. I have provided the developer(s) of the mod a jailed test environment to debug in with linux_base-fc4, but they are asking how to enable linux debugging compatibility, but I have no idea how to do so, and my googling attempts have only turned up old references to /usr/ports/devel/linux_devel which doesn't seem to exist any more. Here is exactly what he asked me: I haven't used FreeBSD since 4.4 or so. I've installed gdb66 and i386-rtems-gdb (whatever that is) in vain attempts to get Linux debugging compatibility but to no avail. Do you know how to get that working or should I start going googling? :) If you really want, you can view all the gory details here: https://bugs.alliedmods.net/show_bug.cgi?id=3264 but my basic question is, what is the answer to his question of how to get linux debugging compatibility? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [freebsd-questions] Re: Machine locking up
Hi, Might be on track there. The default background_fsck is on and the first time I didn't see any of the fsck syslog messages. On the second reboot, I see them all. Oddly, on the reboot I see the first one done in 12 minutes from the boot, yet the prior boot went over an hour before it locked up. I did run into some oddness though. I found it was doing the final fsck on a 1.1TB filesystem, so I wandered into '/mountpoint/.snap' and did an ls -lt. It hung. When I did a CTRL-T, it told me it was in a spinlock. I ran top and found I had 1/2 a dozen processes also in spinlock. I was patient this time (And had other multiple VTYs logged in) so I waited it out. All of a sudden all the spinlocks stopped, the processes and ls completed, but it still was in pass 5 at 95%. It sat there for a while before finally sending the output to syslog and KNOCK KNOCK things are doing fair. I'm letting the system have it easy for a few days before I put a load back onto it (4 SETI). The 2nd part to recompile kernel/world... I don't worry too much doing that. Its the install part that gives me the willies. I've done that before on a system that was acting up and on reboot it just acted dead. I remember I had to hand copy some libraries over after remaking AGAIN and things started to pick up. But scary as heck. The system finally died totally about a month later. Thanks, Tuc I suggest you reboot in single user mode and fsck -fy the mount points you use. If the problem persists - you might recompile the kernel and world.

CTRL-C and CTRL-\ didn't do anything. The remote KVM could C-A-D and the machine rebooted. Once it rebooted it seemed ok, but then locked up again while in use. The odd thing was I remembered to try CTRL-T, and got : load: 0.00 cmd: login 1188 [sysctl lock] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 176k on the session I was trying to log in on, and on the session I was doing a tail, I saw : load: 0.00 cmd: tail 2013 [proctree] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 0k I could tab between VTYs, but logins wouldn't accept input, and I couldn't C-A-D this time around.

Re: dovecot, maildir, UFS 2 performance
You can treat UFS as ext2/3 with dir_index enabled by default (not exactly but that's what dirhash translates to in practice). UFS by default creates 2k fragments (sub-blocks), so in practice any tuning in this direction won't do much. More drives=better in this case. Don't forget to tune dirhash_maxmem. I think this is what I really wanted to know. Thank you!

Or you can use the gimp to capture and process window images under X11. I'm not aware of any screen dump apps on the console. You can of course run console apps in an X terminal and capture that. Roland ImageMagick has the 'import' command which can directly capture screen to some sensible format such as jpg. You'll get a pointer from which you can drag a box on the screen which you want to capture. Alternively you can just click an application to take a screenshot of that application window.

Re: dovecot, maildir, UFS 2 performance
2) keeping problems on one partition from raising trouble on another partition. e.g., filesystem corruption in a home directory keeping the root from being able to boot, or filling up a mail directory keeping people from logging in. today we have live CDs. and - UFS doesn't get totally corrupted, just few files lost etc. files and directories that are not written for a long never get corrupted so you will always have kernel and /rescue anyway i said tradition - because very old unix filesystems (25 years ago.. or more) was different and sometimes got totally corrupted. Of course if hardware will fail, you can lose all filesystem. or all filesystems with multiple partitions. end effect is the same. 3) fsck: Background fsck can't be done on the root filesystem, so if you have a large root, that amounts to a substantial delay booting after a crash. i STRONGLY advise all to add background_fsck=NO to /etc/rc.conf because background fsck DO make problems 4) backups: dump(8) works on a filesystem basis, so organizing the data for backup (with dump) means organizing according to filesystem.

Re: FreeBSD Port of mrtg Not Happy when Trying to Start
It appears that the problem of getting mrtg to start may have something to do with perl and libraries. I installed mrtg on another FreeBSD6.3 system today. That system would have worked so I began poking around on both systems and then it hit me. It's terribly obvious after one realizes what is wrong. The problem system complains: Can't locate SNMP_util.pm in @INC (@INC contains: --- and then a ls showing everything else that is there. The working test system does have: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/SNMP_util.pm The problem system actually has an extremely similar file name: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Net_SNMP_util.pm Easy to overlook but still a totally different file name. Gee, what if I just link the missing name to the good file as in ln -s Net_SNMP_util.pm SNMP_util.pm That produced: Subroutine version redefined at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/SNMP_util.pm line 394. and so on for 22 lines of similar squawks. I did briefly have net-snmp installed on that system but it has been deinstalled unless it left a library or two lying around. There is no need for net-snmp so if I could figure out what it put on and make sure it is gone, that might fix the problem.

Re: Build error while upgrading 'kdesdk-3.5.9' to 'kdesdk-3.5.10' (devel/kdesdk3)
First, thanks for your response.
Did you previously have kde-4 on this machine? ldconfig -r |grep gettext
should show a /usr/local/kde4/../libgettext.so, but that isn't usuable, so
new port builds will see 'a libgettext', so wont install gettext, but kde's
configure finds it is not usuable, so will default to it's internal copy of
gettext, which doesn't compile cleanly.
cd /usr/ports/devel/kdesdk
${EDITOR} `make -V WRKSRC`/config.log
that should show hints why it does not find gettext usable.
(Yep, been bitten by it).
Well, I didn't yet install kde4 and I don't intend to. (-:
Anyway, ldconfig -r | grep gettext shows only the following output:
~~
271:-lgettextpo.4 = /usr/local/lib/libgettextpo.so.4
~~
I don't understand why it doesn't list libgettextlib.so since it is
installed by the port devel/gettext (gettext-0.17_1 is installed here)
I uploaded the whole config.log to
http://johnny64.fixinko.sk/junk/config.log.kdesdk3
but I don't see any relevant messages concerning gettext...
But anyway, how did you solve the error you were getting? Do you think
just running ldconfig will help? Won't it spoil something important?

Incorrect physical memory when hw.physmem is set
Hello, There is a peculiar case when physical memory limit is set through hw.physmem and Freebsd sets usable memory to much lesser value. In cases with 8 GB of RAM where the physical memory address space is remapped above 4 GB and if we set hw.physmem to 4 GB then Freebsd actually skips the segments remapped above 4 GB. So we end up with much less memory than 4 GB depending upon the memory hole in the top of 4 GB address space. I would like to know if someone else came across the same issue. Thank you, Mohd ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Wrong Build Environment
After several days of attempting to build mrtg on a FreeBSD6.3 system, I know what is wrong but am not sure what I did to break things nor how to roll back the change. On the broken system, I can deinstall both perl5.8 and mrtg and then do a make install for mrtg which also builds perl5.8 and installs it. When done, I have /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 but the libraries mrtg needs are not there. Instead, there are very similar files which mrtg is not looking for. On another 6.3 system, I installed mrtg via the same port and it also creates the exact same directory but it contains the correct files. I have not set any environment variables to anything other than the normal settings on either system. Is there a proper way to determine where the make process is going wrong? It is almost certainly some file in /usr/lib that got built wrong that keeps steering the make attempt to populate /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 with the wrong files. Other than that, there are no complaints during the build process. You just can't run the executable because it can't find any of the files it needs. I can't think what bone-head thing I did to cause this, but I've ruled out problems with the mrtg port or perl5.8. I actually built perl5.8 from a slightly older port, once, and got the same results. The port of mrtg is fairly old and was installed successfully on the system that works and also installed successfully on the broken system except it can't find its libraries. Any ideas? Thank you.

Why FreeBSD uses its own version of cmp? why not use GNU cmp? Is the GNU cmp not compatible with FreeBSD? The GNU version of cmp is not licensed under the BSD license. Given enough time/manpower, all the GNU tools in FreeBSD will eventually be replaced with BSD-licensed versions. and it's not GNU diff it's BSD diff Are you sure about that? I thought FreeBSD was using GNU diff as its standard diff, and that a BSD diff was only available through ports (thanks in part to the efforts of someone working on BSD-licensed text tools during this year's Google SOC). FreeBSD diff direcotry is /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/diff . It refers to /usr/src/contrib/diff for diff sources. It seems FreeBSD apply a patch to GNU diff to get an option 'o' to get a old-style output. Applying a patch on a GNU app does not become BSD unless you write it from scratch. In my past experience, the GNU ncurses and Flex (http://flex.sourceforge.net/) are simple not compatible with FreeBSD even though Flex is licensed under BSD. I wanted to know whether the GNU cmp is also the same fate other than the license because all these GNU tools comes in one package, Diffutils. I was wondering why FreeBSD wrote their own version of cmp. If it just the license, then that's fine. I prefer the BSD versions of diff, etc. when available.
