[opensuse-virtual] Home virtualization Lab
Hi!, I'm building a new NAS box (Leap + btrfs) which is a little over powered so I would love to use it as a personal virtualization lab. Xenserver/ESXi/Proxmox/Acropolis are out because of software R6 and having a single host, so I'm turning to openSUSE. I've worked a lot with Xen years ago but I understand the guys that get all the attention these days are KVM and docker, and Xen might be a second class citizen. Given I would like: - Software R6 on the host - Virtualization nesting - PCI passthrough - Some permanent VMs - Lots of temporary VMs Would you suggest to go with XEN or KVM or Virtualbox in this specific scenario at this point in time?, can I assume docker will place nice with any of them?.

This is mostly about tuning for raid5 write performance. Anyway, are you planning to stripe together multiple md5 arrays via LVM? I believe that is what --stripes and --stripesize are for. (ie. If you have 8 drives, you could create 2 raid5 arrays, and use LVM to interleave them by using --stripes = 2.) I've never used that feature. You need to worry about the vg extents. I think vgcreate --physicalextentsize is what you need to tune. I would make each extent an even number of stripes in size. ie. 768KB * N. Maybe use N=10, so -s 7680K Assuming your not using lvm strips and since this appears to be a new setup, I would also use -C or --contiguous to ensure all the data is sequential. It maybe overkill, but it will further ensure you _avoid_ LV extents that don't end on a stripe boundary. (a stripe == 3 raid5 chunks for you). Then if you are going to use the snapshot feature, you need to set your chunksize efficiently. If you only are going to have large files, then I would use a large LVM snapshot chunksize. 256KB seems like a good choice, but I have not benchmarked snapshot chunksizes.

I can get about 4-5GB/min from new sata drives. So about 75 MB/sec from a single raw drive (ie. dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=4k) You don't say how your invoking dd. The default bs is only 512 bytes I think and that is totally inefficient with the linux kernel. I typically use 4k which maps to what the kernel uses. ie. dd if=/dev/zero of=big-file bs=4k count=1000 should give you a simple but meaningful test.. I think the default stride is 64k per drive, so if your writing 3x 64K at a time, you may get perfect alignment and miss the overhead of having to recalculate the checksum all the time. As another data point, I would bump that up to 30x 64K and see if you continue to get speed improvements. So tell us the write speed for bs=512 bs=4k bs=192k bs=1920k And the read speeds for the same. ie. dd if=big-file of=/dev/null bs=4k, etc. I would expect the write speed to go up with each increase in bs, but the read speed to be more or less constant. Then you need to figure out what sort of real world block sizes your going to be using. Once you have a bs, or collection of bs sizes that match your needs, then you can start tuning your stack.

2008/1/12, Johannes Nohl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Saying LTS I mean Long Term Support as ubuntu people do. I know there's SEL but I'm asking for the open Suse. I'm configuring a new webserver right now. And I'm seriosly thinking about waiting for the next ubuntu LTS. I always ran the machines longer than two years. Often the contract duration for the dedicated hardware is two years yet. And although upgrading worked so far for me there were always small changes which you couldn't see in advance, like postfix complaining about file permissions. I really enjoy OpenSuse but a life cycle of two years is - except for desktops - to short. Not every release has to be supported long term but what about every third?

Re: [opensuse] RAID5 Power outages
2007/10/27, Rui Santos [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Ciro, Try to think of a RAID Array as a single partition. You put a filesystem on top of a partition or a RAID Array. I know it's logically a partition/disk, but the important bit there is logically, a real partition won't melt down or break into multiple unusable peaces. If the power fails, the -partition- DOES survive. The filesystem may have inconsistencies but it is probably recoverable. It is the same principle ( almost ) with a Soft-RAID array. If you have frequent power loss, IMHO, you should activate RAID write-intent bitmapping. The command is mdadm /dev/mdX -Gb internal That's what i'm talking about, i wonder if that has a performance penalty. This is the result of the last power outage: mainwks:~ # cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [linear] md0 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1] 104320 blocks [2/2] [UU] md1 : active raid1 sda3[0] sdb3[1] 241987008 blocks [2/2] [UU] [==..] resync = 11.0% (26760192/241987008) finish=315.0min speed=11384K/sec I assume that would look really nasty on a big raid5... If you are afraid about a RAID's inconsistency by issuing echo check /sys/block/mdX/md/sync_action and check for failures wiht cat /sys/block/mdX/md/mismatch_cnt. If there are failures, correct it with echo repair /sys/block/mdX/md/sync_action You can also put it on a cron script... Hope it helps, Rui I will look further on the bitmapping topic.

Re: [opensuse] No space left (but there is some!!)
2007/10/24, Jeff Mahoney [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Ok, I just subscribed to this list, so this is the first message I have in my inbox on this topic. I've read the rest on the archive. I do regularly read opensuse-kernel, though. First to start with the questions from the bottom up: ReiserFS doesn't reserve space for anything other than the journal. ReiserFS doesn't have inodes. It has items that are referenced by keys. The only thing there is a shortage of is objectids, which are regular 32-bit integers. Unless you've managed to create ~ 4 billion files, you're not running out of them. This bug is likely caused by a patch I put into 10.3 that started using the first_zero_hint value that is calculated in the bitmap code. The calculations have been there for ages, but they haven't been used until the 10.3 kernel. It short circuits the bitmap scanning code to skip ranges it knows are already used. After the 10.3 release, I decided this was a dubious optimization and was likely responsible for problems just like this one (bug 331814). I pushed a patch to mainline that rips the first_zero_hint code out entirely. To test this hypothesis, please download and test a kernel from: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/jeffm/suse/testpkgs/331814 I'm very much interested in feedback to ensure that this solves the problem.

The raid should definately survive, but the portion you are writing at the time could easily be corrupt. I thought that that kind of corruption would trigger the array rebuild or logical fail... Raid5 typically has a 64k per disk data unit, but your issues are going to really be at the 4k page level I think. In particular, when you write/overwrite a page the kernel has to read the original page of data and the checksum page of data. Update both and write them both back out. There is really no way the OS can ensure that both writes actually make it to disk simultaneously. So if you have a power outage while writing to a raid5 the odds are high that one of the 2 updates failed to make it to disk. The good news, is the array itself should be fine. It just the single raid5 stripe that is corrupted. You likely won't find out about the problem until you lose a disk. But even then it will just be a few pages that are impacted. So?, i will just heal itself?, continue to work with some corrupted files (corrupted stripe effect)?

I seem to recall the system reserving a certain amount of space to enable
root
to login in case of a filled system. Or was that only on a ext2 filesystem?
That's on ALL Unix and Linux systems that I've ever used.
Once disk usage goes beyond a threshold (set individually
in each filesystem layout on each partition at filesystem
creation time), only root can write to the filesystem.
Any filesystem (ext3, xfs, reiserfs, etc) which doesn't have
this capability cannot be a general purpose Unix or Linux
filesystem because it cannot be used on whatever filesystem(s)
(i.e partition) hold, for example, /tmp, /var/log, /var/tmp,
and wherever root's home directory happens to be.
Also, what are you trying to do? Make a small (asy 4k)
file, or something bigger?
How about inodes? Are you out of those?
Do a 'df -i' to check.
That doesn't apply to reiserfs, it does to ext3 and ufs for example
but you can set the reserved percentage to 0 (with tune2fs on ext3).
And about the inodes, the total quantity is not defined at the fs
creation time.

[opensuse] Card Reader Recommendation
Hi, I'm looking for a memoery card reader (capable of reading xD) with IDE interface, the idea is that it takes the place that usually uses a floppy drive and that works with linux. I don't have currently free usb ports. Anybody seen this weird specimen? Regards, Ciro -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [opensuse] Sony Vaio VGN-AR41S
2007/10/11, Dave Howorth [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Has anybody installed 10.2 or 10.3 on one of these beasts? We have 10.2 on one and it mostly seems to run. But sometimes it hangs whilst booting, not in any one particular place. Vista works fine. fdisk and parted don't understand the disk structure and there are boot messages about seek errors on sda so I suspect the disk controller is not completely understood. We called the Novell support number we had been given in the US, were told to call the correct number in the UK (where we are) and then told to run YaST repair. It didn't seem to find anything significant but suggested writing a new grub menu without Vista :) :( which we ignored. Before we spend too much investigating and/or trying 10.3 I wondered if anybody had any experience with this model.

The built-in test tests the actual image length and gives you the poor-Spanish OK. (You can help the translation team :) When you apply md5sum directly to the device you may get a different result because of padding added to the end of the image in the media. This is normal and it does not mean the image on the media is bad. Check here for a way to check correctly the image from the CD/DVD: http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Wikilearn/CdromMd5sumsAfterBurning The built-in test and burners, such as K3b, do the test properly. (Don't forget to wait for K3b to complete calculating the md5sum of the image every time before starting to burn, otherwise it will give you an error even if the image is good.) -- Carlos FL Well, the second copy has the same checksum...

I haven't used it in a real business setup, but when I last tried it out, I have to say I was quite impressed with it. Be sure to let Linux Canada know if you like it.

Re: [opensuse] Session locks under ASUS M2N-MX SE
2007/9/8, Scott Newton [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I have openSUSE 10.2 (with all the latest updates) installed on a machine that has an ASUS M2N-MX SE motherboard. Quite regularly the machine will lock up, independent of whether it is running in a tty or in X (ie locks up even when X is not running). It doesn't seem to make any difference what parameters I pass to the kernel (tried noacpi, irqpoll, etc). The motherboard and the hard drive have been replaced so I don't believe it is a hardware fault unless it's the power supply. I thought it might be the wireless card but it locks up independent of whether it is in the machine or not. I've tried the latest NVIDIA drivers but as it locks up even when X isn't running I don't think it is the NVIDIA drivers. There is nothing in the log files that I can find or in dmesg.

[opensuse] Oracle support for PHP, perl and other apps
Hi, there's a thread on opensuse-buildservice about having support for oracle on php, perl, and other apps like tora, plus adding a quick solution for end users to build oracle-instantclient packages. Although Opensuse can't provide a binary package for oracle-instantclient because of legal issues (mostly involving countries banned by the USA government and redistribution of the client), we could still be able to build packages against it (like php, tora, perl-DBD-Oracle) and distribute them (pretty much like the Sun SDK is handled now on buildservice), plus adding a nosrc package so the end users can fix the dependencies quickly. Already sent a mail to oracle about the redistribution limitation, but as there's no answer (yet), this is the only workaround. Is there anyone interested?, if there's enough people needing this it could be a reality, would you like to comment?

Re: [opensuse] SLES9 refuses TIghtVNC 1.3.9 connections
2007/8/9, Xn Nooby [EMAIL PROTECTED]: When I try to conenct to my SLES9 boxes with the latest TightVNC program, all I I get is a Status: Protocol version negotiated message. Googling it appears the VNC server in SLES9 does not support the new protocol used in TightVNC 1.3.9, and the solution is to either upgrade the VNC Server on SLES9, or downgrade the client's TightVNC to 1.2.9. I'd like to use 1.3.9 on the client because it apparently properly traps Alt-Tab window cycling and sends it to the SLES9 box. How to I upgrade the VNC Server on my SLES9 box? I'm using SLES9 SP3. I was trying to find some new VNC rpms, but this site didn't seem searchable: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/ Any suggestions?

[opensuse] SUSE SWAMP
Anybody tried it?, is it actually being used on the Opensuse project?. Looks interesting Maybe it can replace workflow apps on Domino/Notes... Webpage: http://swamp.sourceforge.net/ SWAMP - The Workflow Platform SWAMP is a workflow processing platform. Workflows are processes with many people involved in many working steps. In a real world scenario these workflows are highly dynamic, but still many systems try to hardcode the business logic. That leads to raising efforts to adapt the system. Here is where SWAMP steps in: The workflow is designed in a XML based meta language in one file which is read by SWAMP. Workflows can be built from different workflow 'patterns' like simple actions, decisions, selections, loops, but also custom code and external events if required. SWAMP builds a HTML GUI from the workflow definition file that guides different users through the whole process, sends notifications if required, assembles overview pages over all running processes and much more. A SOAP interface can be used to integrate external systems into the workflow. These are SWAMPs main Features: * Support of many different workflow patterns * Flexibility in workflow design: A workflow can be specified in a single XML file * Workflow evolution: Workflows can be developed while in operation (versioning) * Ease of use: clear and straightforward XML based workflow definition language, no coding skills needed * Workflows can attach data and files * Automatic web-GUI generation for handling individual tasks and administrating workflows * Running on Linux + Windows with OS-independant tools: Java, Tomcat, MySQL * MySQL + LDAP authentication possible * User and Role management, workflows/tasks can be restricted * Mail notification system included * Unlimited amount of different workflow-types on one server * Scheduler to control time-critical workflow paths * SOAP interface allows interaction with external systems * Openness: Custom code allows unlimited functionality, event- and data gateways * Customizeable overview lists with filters -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

After researched on this topic for so long gftp beta version is still the best of all, though it also make mistakes, but less important mistakes than others. Non of tested solution can solve the problem without mistake. So we decide to use a stupid method: take pencil and paper write down files being touched, and manually select them for upload. We now have the good-old pencil paper solution and unlike geeky friends like me, she understand technology have limitations and accepts it. The interesting thing is I don't think technology have limitations (yes, I would use rsync if I manage that web server!), what I think is human have limitations, that some human is not getting used to commandline, probably never:) And if I am really geeky I'd go fix either filezilla or gftp. So yet people on this lists who can fix the software they are using are really geeky:) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I really miss FTPRush while working on linux Have you tried FireFTP (https://addons.mozilla.org/es-ES/firefox/addon/684)?.

[opensuse] Re: [opensuse-factory] Announcing Hack Week
2007/6/24, Nat Friedman [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi everyone, At Novell we've been planning a special internal event that will run this week, from June 25th to 29th. We're calling it Hack Week. During Hack Week, our entire Linux engineering team -- hundreds of people -- will be working on whatever Linux or open source projects interest them. Everyone will work alone or in teams, on existing open source projects or new ideas of their own. No one will tell them what or what not to do -- it's a free week for free hacking, driven by individual passion. To make it easier for our hackers to find and publicize their projects, we've created an Idea Pool web site where we've all spent the last couple of weeks sharing ideas and finding collaborators. This web site is open to the public here: http://idea.opensuse.org/ Although this is a Novell event, we're running it with full transparency. You'll be able to follow our progress and projects on the Idea Pool web site, either with the blog on the front page where we'll post videos from our seven main engineering sites[1], or by watching individual project pages. We invite you to participate where you can. If you'd like to help with a project, feel free to add a comment to the discussion section of the page and volunteer your support. We hope that you'll at least enjoy watching Hack Week progress. If it is successful, we hope to run it again sometime soon, with even more participation from the community. If you're interested in following along, you might check the following sites first: - Hack Week Overview: http://idea.opensuse.org/content/hackweek - Tags: http://idea.opensuse.org/content/blog/welcome-to-the-idea-pool - Idea Pool code of conduct: http://idea.opensuse.org/content/etiquette - Flickr pool: http://www.flickr.com/groups/hackweek/pool/ During the week, we'll use the channel #opensuse-hackweek on irc.freenode.net for general discussion (project-specific discussion will find its own venue). Hope to see you there! Happy hacking, Nat [1] Beijing, Bangalore, Prague, Nuernberg, Boston, Provo, Portland are the main sites - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Weird, i get no audio from the videos..

Re: [opensuse] New Subject - building clusters with OpenSuse
2007/6/15, Pascal Bleser [EMAIL PROTECTED]: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Alexey Eremenko wrote: Alternatively, you can write some custom scripts to share hard disk data between nodes, use webmin to manage nodes together, and use Cisco's NAT with Load Balancing to use both servers. Scripts ? to share ? Seems we've got quite a different definition of sharing here ;) And I think you're really oversimplifying clustering. For sharing data between nodes, you definitely need shared storage (FC-attached, possibly SCSI, or for testing purposes it even works with Firewire) or a multipathed SAN. Needless to say, that's horrendously expensive. And with directly shared storage options (i.e. not SAN), you need a clustering-capable filesystem (GFS or OCFS2) that manages the dlocks between the nodes. A cheaper but less performant options is drbd. When possible, it's advisable to avoiding shared storage completely, e.g. by storing data in a replicated MySQL (when possible, depends on the application(s)). Load balancing is the most trivial issue to solve. High availability (hot standby, aka active-passive) isn't that easy and, depending on the application and its needs, it can be very expensive. Load balancing _and_ high availability (active-active) is typically even a lot more complex than just high availability. If it's about clustering as in HA clustering (HA=High Availability) (which has almost nothing to do with HPC clustering (HPC=High Performance Computing), then heartbeat is also a very, very interesting option. It's limited to two nodes, but it's pretty easy to configure. Pity, what it doesn't do is monitoring services (just the nodes). You'll need another tool for that (e.g. monit or mon) and combine the two (which, surprisingly, isn't that easy to do nor is there that much documentation about it). When it's more about load-balancing, LVS (Linux Virtual Server) is a good candidate. As it operates the packet rewriting at kernel-level, it's pretty fast. It doesn't combine all that easily with HA though. This should work for basic workloads... such as HTTP server. That's just load-balancing, which is really trivial to do (with lots and lots of options on how to implement it) for stateless protocols such as HTTP. It becomes more complex already when you have stateful (or conversational) protocols (EJB/JRMP/RMI, XMPP/Jabber, ...) or even HTTP with sessions. Unless you don't care about users having to start their shopping cart all over again when a server dies, HTTP with sessions needs session replication. Session replication can be achieved by persisting sessions in a replicated database (slow), using e.g. Tomcat and its clustered in-memory session replication mechanisms (fast), or doing sticky load-balancing with a load-balancer upfront that is smart enough to understand session URLs and cookies and to redirect traffic to the cluster node that originated the session (fastest, but only load-balances the first request and doesn't help all that much wrt HA). cheers - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] _\_v The more things change, the more they stay insane. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGczP3r3NMWliFcXcRAgkRAKCokXIfuDwrH/TSTTqV62P7bJVCsgCfdGaE DjgWqtFXzvZ4pEAvg9pKkWk= =eV8u -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The new Heartbeat2 with OCFSv2 would be a killer combination in some future, the only problem with heartbeat2 is the lack of documentation Maybe adding openSSI we could get something similar to TruCluster...

[opensuse] Spyware on my laptop? (hope it's not OT)
Well, i really don't know what to thing, this laptop has exclusively linux (opensuse 10.2) and using firefox from home i get (too) often redirected to www.city.ws/notfound.asp while trying to access any page (google.com, local forums, etc), it's intermitent. Initially i blamed my Linksys WRT54GX4 access point at home, so i bypassed and conected the radiomodem directly to my laptop. The problem was still there. Then i blamed the ISP, maybe they were using some proxy or something alike. So, now i take the laptop to the office and don't longer get the city.ws redirection, well, it's not the laptop, BUT trying to access a non existant homepage (http://www.glog.ne/ for example) i get this: --- Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0005' Invalid procedure call or argument: 'Left' /includestuff.asp, line 29 --- This message also appeared at home. Later i blamed firefox or maybe an extension with ads or something like that. Trying to access www.glog.ne with konqueror still gives me the VBScript error, and between my laptop and internet there's only a cisco router. So, WTF?!, why am i getting a VBScript error on a linux laptop running firefox and accessing nonexistant pages?! Anyone has seen this? or know what is this city.ws thing?
