Building file server for multi-tera capacity
Hi we plan a FreeBSD server which can host at least 20 Terabyte of data. The system will be shipped with FreeBSD 7 or 8 and will be based on a NexSAN SAS Beast. We would like to know if anybody has tried FreeBSD with NexSAN products and particularly if he has a suggestion about a solid HBA. Also we would like to hear your opinion about ZFS with this configuration.

I'm from a linux background(redhat, debian, ubuntu), but after some googling and comparison, I found FreeBSD more stable and I want to try FreeBSD. I am tired of a dual-boot system, so I want to just install FreeBSD or another linux distribution(maybe ubuntu) on my notebook. My questions are: 1) Can FreeBSD work well with my hardware? The display card, CDRW/DVDRW, wireless, Ethernet and battery managment are the most important. 2) I have read the FreeBSD Handbook. According to Chapter 10: Linux Binary Compatibility, it seems that FreeBSD lacks support of many commercial softwares such as MATLAB, Oracle, Mathematica. Is the linux binary compatibility stable enough for work ? It should run FreeBSD just fine. Check the hardware compatibility lists to check for specific peripherals. The Linux compatibility layer worked well. Should be no problem. jerry Thanks a lot. Thank you guys. I will try to install FreeBSD on a second hard disk to have a test. Is FreeBSD going to enhance himself on the desktop ? It seems that FreeBSD focuses mainly on server, while Linux has improved a lot in the past a few years both on server and desktop. But I'm still eager to try FreeBSD on my notebook :P I am able to compile world and kernel and the temperature of the cores is never higher than 67.

How do I chmod separately files and directories?
If I use chmod -R 644 then it will go through all the subdirectories
assigning everything 644 permissions, directories including.

Question about a patch
Hi I am about to send a patch about a port. I would like to move a file of the port, located in the 'files/' directory. Basically the file now is called netdisco.sh.in and I would like to call it netdisco.in. If I use a normal 'diff -ruN' command to generate the patch, after I apply the patch the new file is created but the old file (netdisco.sh.in) is still there, with zero size. I wonder if I should generate a shar archive for this port instead of a patch. Sorry if this question is so simple.

Re: fsck of big disk
Hi, thanks a lot for your answer. we have a freshly installed FreeBSD 6.2 machine with a gstriped external disk, of 5.3Tb. The disk is composed of two slices of 2.6 Tb. We are trying to have a (background) fsck of it but few hours later since the start of the check the host get unresponsive: it responds to ping but it doesn't let login anyone, nor by ssh nor by console. What do you get if you press Control-T on the console when it is unresponsive? We are not able to login via console nor via ssh. Pheraps you suggest me to press Control-T on the console even if I am not logged on. I did not try, sorry. When you do a background fsck there is a point at which a snapshot of the filesystem is taken, although I'd say that happens at the beginning of the check. The problem is that with 5.3 Tb, it may take quite a while to take the snapshot, and during that time the system blocks any process that tries to write to the filesystem. Maybe that's what you are experiencing. What you explained us sounds very interesting. But anyway we simply solved by disabling background fsck on such a big partition. We had panics and reboot and we did not want to risk on a production host.

Re: changing kern.ngroups
Cool. Any suggestion on what to do if I do want to change it? We managed to get 64 groups changing these files /usr/include/sys/syslimits.h /usr/src/sys/sys/syslimits.h NGROUPS_MAX from 16 to 64, then recompiling world. We use NFS and we never had problems (more than one year running). But I heard you may get some trouble with some hardcoded limits.

Question on NFS performance
Hi all we have a FreeBSD 5.4 exporting some NFS filesystem to a cluster of gentoo boxes (kernel 2.6.12). Our exported storage disk is an Apple XRaid. We have Gigabit Ethernet both on the client and the server. We would like to improve our read performance. This is our performance: about 10Mb reading a file of 1Gb with dd and iozone confirms this result. We already use the normal optimization flags (we use rpc.lockd and rpc.statd, on the client we have read size 65536 and a read ahead of 4 blocks, the async options). Is our performance the best we can get? Can we improve it?

Hang in 5.3, related to syslog-ng
Hi all we have a server with 5.3 (latest patches) with twelve jails. One of these jails is a mail server (mail-jail), serving about 300 users, writing a lot of logs to /var/log/maillog. On the same server I installed a jail with syslog-ng (syslog-jail). syslog-ng was configured to listen on the network and write to a named pipe. On the same jail I created a script to read from that named pipe and insert the result to mysql, but I didn't start this script. I was about to start this system of logging, so I modified /etc/syslog.conf in the mail-jail inserting a line like this: mail.* @logger_with_syslog-ng.my.domain then I restarted syslogd on the mail-jail sending a HUP signal. Suddendly the system stopped responding to anything (from ping to console, everything stopped). I rebooted the server turning off the power and deleted that line in syslog.conf. Everything worked. Could it be some issue related to a named pipe? Or pheraps to syslogd? Or syslog-ng? I tried recreating the situation on a test server with 5.4 but everything worked. Sorry if I don't have details but this is a very critical server for us and I can't experiment.

Re: Samba on amd64 6.0
Anyone using this with LDAP backend? Does it work for you? To me it's giving severe troubles: smbd will tend to hang, hog CPU to 99% and keep some file locked, the user was modifing. I'll need to kill -9 it, in order to let the user keep on working. If anyone is having or has had this problem, I'd welcome any information or experience. I've seen past reports on this (dating back to autumn 2005), but the thread does not end with anything that can help. bye Thanks av. We had the same problem as you, with FreeBSD 5.4, last November.

Number of routing tables
Hello I would like to know if exists a sysctl to get the number of routing tables in the kernel. I don't want the list of the routing tables, I just want the number. The command 'netstat -rn|wc -l' could be a good candidate, but since I want to implement this command on a very busy router, I don't want it to go 100% CPU just to get a simple count. If it doesn't exist I will create something based on netstat's source.

Re: Group membership above 15 of them
On 12/21/05, Feczak Szabolcs [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I would like to have users with more than 15 groups. The default kern.ngroups: is 16 by default and readonly, and not even /etc/sysctl.conf allows to modify it after reboot, although securelevel is -1. I read somewhere that I need the modify the source and rebuild world for this. If I put myself into more than 15 groups I cannot login anymore and only sshd[52178]: initgroups(username,100): Invalid argument message in the syslog warns me about this - I think more warnings needed at some other point since you can easily lock out yourself from a remote system. So what steps should I take to let this configuration work. Isn't there an easier way then rebuild wolrd ? We have a configuration with 64 groups and it is pretty stable. We modified the sources: /usr/include/sys/syslimits.h /usr/src/sys/sys/syslimits.h and put the NGROUPS_MAX to 64. Then we rebuilt everything and now it just works.

If we use sysinstall-Configure-Fdisk and try to build a unique slice we get a message like 'Wrote FDISK partition information out successfully (100%)' but if we go back to fdisk it shows a freebsd slice of 187Gb plus an unused slice of 2048Gb. If we delete it and recreate a new slice, the problem persists. Is there any tutorial about using fdisk without using sysinstall?

Dual Fibre Channel Host Adapter
Hi all we have a few FreeBSD 5.4 boxes on HP Proliant DL360 and DL380. We have to buy some Dual Fibre Channel Host Adapter for these hosts and we would like to know which are the best supported by FreeBSD. If you have any experience with Fibre Channel (e.g. bad drivers, bad compatibility) please let us know. Thanks a lot Valerio Daelli ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: make buildworld fails
Yes. You're using unsupported optimizations. Please read very carefully the comments above CFLAGS in /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf - Giorgos Thanks a lot! I'll use a safer optimization.

Jails on NFS: locks on file
Hi all,
we are using FreeBSD 5.4 with some jails.
One of this jail is on a NFS directory - I mean: the whole filesystem of
this jail is on a remote directory, exported by a FreeBSD 5.4 server with
NFS, and the 'host' system (the one that started and stopped the jail)
mounts it via NFS. In this jail we can't perform a 'flock' operation, even
if the NFS server has rpc.lockd and rpc.statd. We built a little executable
in C like this (let's call it myflock):
___
#include stdio.h
#include errno.h
#include fcntl.h
int main() {
int lockfd;
char* tempfile=tempfile;
lockfd=open(tempfile,O_CREAT);
if (flock(lockfd, LOCK_SH|LOCK_NB)==-1) {
printf(ERROR shared lock: %d,errno);
}
if (flock(lockfd, LOCK_EX|LOCK_NB)==-1) {
printf(ERROR exclusive lock: %d,errno);
}
close(lockfd);
}
___
We executed on a local directory and it gets the flock.
We executed on the mounted NFS partition (with rpc.lockd and rpc.statd) and
it works.
We executed in the jail-NFS and it fails! Errno 45 (from
'/usr/include/errno.h': #define EOPNOTSUPP 45 /* Operation
not supported */). The directory where we launch myflock is the same as the
previous command (no permission problems).
We executed in a jail contained in a md mounted on a NFS directory and it
works.
Could it be a rpcbind issue (the jail can't get the flock since it can't
rpc-contact the NFS server)?
Thanks a lot
Valerio Daelli

vipw: could not lock the passwd file: : Operation not supported
Hi all, we have FreeBSD 5.4 jail which is mounted via NFS from a host machine. The filesystem containing the jail is mounted from a remote machine. Everything is fine, except when I try to add a user in the jail I get a: vipw: could not lock the passwd file: : Operation not supported I solved the problem in pwd_mkdb using the -i switch. But I can't find any similar options in vipw. Has anyone an idea about this?

Re: vipw: could not lock the passwd file: : Operation not supported
Yes, I am root. The problem is that some tools like vipw and pam utilities want to get a flock on some files, like /etc/passwd. If they can't (because of plain NFS) they complain. I've been suggested to try with rpc.lockd. Thanks for your help! Valerio Daelli It sounds like your not logged in as root, I'm sure you are but I have never played with jails.

FreeBSD on AlphaServer DS25
Hello we are trying to install FreeBSD 5.4 (Alpha Version) on a AlphaServer DS25. It fails when we start to boot from the CD. This machine doesn't have any floppy so we cannot try the floppy install. We have similar problem installing Debian so we think this model has problem booting with normal iso-images for Alpha. Does anybody of you has any hint about FreeBSD's supported Alpha Servers?

Statically linked bash

Linux Perl Program not working
Hello everybody we are trying to use a linux perl program called Mascot on FreeBSD. It is statistical-bioinformatic software. We use this program on Linux RedHat 7.3 (glibc 2.3.2), perl 5.8.6. We copied the program and the libraries. We tried installing the ports linux_base (glibc 2.1.3), linux_base-rh-9 (2.3.2). What actually happens is this: 1) If we use freebsd-perl 5.8.6 (we tried the 'plain' and the ithreads one) when we launch this application it fails with a Bus error - core dump. We did a 'strace' on it and it fails after loading some libraries (I report it at the end). This perl program goes into a 'use msparser;', then the msparser.pm file calls a msparser.so file which is a Gnu/Linux shared object. We could't recompile this library since we don't have source code. We just copied it from Linux. /msparser.so:ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (GNU/Linux), not stripped 2) If we use an rpm-installed Active Perl 5.8.6 designed for Linux Red Hat, the program fails with: Can't load '../bin/auto/msparser/msparser.so' for module msparser: ../bin/auto/msparser/msparser.so: ELF file OS ABI invalid at /usr/local/ActivePerl-5.8/lib/5.8.6/i686-linux-thread-multi/DynaLoader.pm line 230.
