Re: [389-users] db2bak.pl error with changelogdb
this kinda brings up a long-standing question in my mind… what’s the “best” way to back things up? ok, let’s agree we need to know more about what’s the problem we are trying to solve. For me, i’d like to keep this somewhat generic to hopefully make this a useful discussion. Assuming multiple ldap servers the idea is to get a useful backup of the data in userRoot without much overhead and using a relatively safe mechanism. I’ll exclude definitions about time to restore and such. The db2bak strategy worries me cuz you’re backing up the db files and the time it takes to back those up on a reasonable sized ldap store is non-trivial. So, is there not a bit of worry about indices being out of sync with the entry store itself along with the log files managing the changes? one would have to filesystem snapshot the DB itself to get a sane backup of a production service, yes? db2ldif gets you the text dump of the DB. it is my understanding, at an object level, this gets you a reliable backup of each entry although data throughout the store may be inconsistent while the large file is being written. i can tell you i do this regularly and it seems to work well, but i wonder about what risks i am incurring with this strategy besides what i already noted. of course, you can have yet another ldap server lying around not being used by apps and it’s purpose is to dump the store periodically, but that may not be part of you what want to achieve with disparate locations and such. other strategies? yes, i have read the docs but i figured i would get a bit more practical by asking the question to possibly learn more about what others are actually doing. /mrg -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users

This doesn't happen. The backup contains a consistent snapshot (achieved by running recovery on the write-ahead log, which is in the backup set). This is much the same as you'll see with backup on a traditional DB like Oracle or Postgresql. Filesystem snapshot is generally not a good idea with WAL databases since the database already has the ability to create consistent backups without the overhead of logging at the filesystem level. -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users

David, Thank you so much for the 3 replies. They are VERY illuminating and helpful for me to now press ahead and better address my own particular needs based on our “requirements”. What I now intend to do is to perform, at regular intervals, db2bak to a specific directory. as i would like to convert the bak db to ldif, it doesn’t appear there is a relatively easy way to do this… either i’d have to mockup a new config dir to reference the bak db as the real db so db2ldif will work or i would have to create a new slapd instance and then configure it for schema and such to be identical to the real instance on the server and then db2bak with the output being the bak instance so i can run db2ldif on on the bak db.

Hmm...the backup files are meaningless gibberish so anything other than a Directory Server, so for sure you need to restore the backup set into a DS of some sort in order to dump it to ldif. That could be a stand-alone server used only for this purpose, or I think you could do it in a separate back end in a server that performs other duties. I'd use a separate server since it is so easy to spin one up. You don't need to configure schema to get it to dump ldif. I don't even think you need to turn schema checking off. Database restore, and ldif dump are done at a very low level. There may be some checks done to pre-flight the backup restore. Try it and see if anything throws an error is probably the quickest way to find out.. -- 389 users mailing list 389-users@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users

That sounds like ringing, often caused by bad cabling, or badly designed input and output video stages. If it appears different for different fonts, it could be due to some fonts having sharp edges (which sets off ringing), and others having smoothed/aliased edges (which won't ring as bad). Bigger and fatter fonts minimise that artifact, too. Turning down the sharpness control, on the projector, could help, too (often the normal position is with the control turned fully down - it provides a variable artificial sharpness boost, ranging from none to too much, but doesn't do the opposite and provide artificial smoothing, with normal being adjusted half-way). -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 2.6.32-431.17.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed May 7 23:32:49 UTC 2014 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.

Five Things in Fedora This Week (2014-05-13)
(Whoops -- I accidentally reposted last week's 5tFTW last night instead of the new one. Sorry!) Reposted from http://fedoramagazine.org/five-things-in-fedora-this-week-2014-05-13/ Fedora is a big project, and it’s hard to follow it all. This series highlights interesting happenings in five different areas every week. It isn’t comprehensive news coverage — just quick summaries with links to each. Here are the five things for May 13th, 2014: Pidora 2014: Fedora 20 for the Raspberry Pi --- I was going to put this at the top of the list last week, and somehow missed it when it came to actually writing things up, so this is actually last week’s news. But it’s pretty cool, so here it is at the top of *this* week. The Raspberry Pi is a very cheap (starting somewhere around $25) credit-card-sized computer. Unfortunately, Fedora doesn’t work on it without some modifications. But, fortunately, those modifications have been made! The Centre for Development of Open Technology at Seneca College in Toronto produces a Fedora Remix called Pidora, specifically tailored for the Raspberry Pi. (A “remix” is different from a “spin” or other variants of Fedora because it is produced separately from the project itself and can contain software that in the official distribution.) This project has just released its fourth version, Pidora 2014. This is based on Fedora 20, so you get all of the benefits of the new Fedora release, plus some specific improvements, including better performance, firstboot configuration tailored for the Raspberry Pi, enhancements for “headless” mode where no monitor is available, and more. * http://www.raspberrypi.org/ * http://cdot.senecacollege.ca/ * http://pidora.ca/ * http://pidora.ca/pidora/releases/20/release-announcement.txt Big Data: Running Apache Hadoop in Docker on Fedora --- Apache Hadoop is an open source software framework for processing big data sets. Like, *really big* data — it powers Yahoo’s search engine, and Facebook has a Hadoop cluster that was 100 petabytes two years ago. Of course, you can use it for smaller projects, and Robert Radi has written a nice little series of posts on getting started with Hadoop using Fedora and Docker, covering: - Building Images, - Running Images, - Why It Works, and - Issues and Limitations. Definitely worth a read if you’re curious about modern data processing, and the last part presents some interesting problems waiting to be solved. * http://www.infoworld.com/d/big-data/facebook-pushes-the-limits-of-hadoop-206108 * http://rrati.github.io/blog/2014/05/06/apache-hadoop-plus-docker-plus-fedora-building-images/ * http://rrati.github.io/blog/2014/05/07/apache-hadoop-plus-docker-plus-fedora-running-images/ * http://rrati.github.io/blog/2014/05/08/apache-hadoop-plus-docker-plus-fedora-why-it-works/ * http://rrati.github.io/blog/2014/05/09/apache-hadoop-plus-docker-plus-fedora-issues-and-limitations/ Preview of Bodhi 2, the new Fedora updates feedback mechanism - One of the most important jobs in Fedora is testing package updates before they’re released to the general public. This makes sure that fixes actually work, and that they don’t introduce new problems. (As always, the help wanted sign is out!) After testers check a package, they use a tool called Bodhi to provide feedback to package maintainers, who use this information to decide whether the update is good to go, either manually or through a preset threshold of positive reports. This system has served us pretty well, but has some pain points. Fedora hackers Luke Macken and Ralph Bean have been working on an update (creatively named Bodhi 2.0), and this week Ralph presents a video demonstrating one of the improvements, a more fine-grained feedback system, which allows testers to list what exactly was tested and which bugs are fixed, rather than just a big “up” or “down”. Ralph notes that there is a Fedora Activity Day (“FAD”) focusing on Bodhi 2 and Tasktron (our upcoming QA automation system) in June, and a lot of progress should be made on both — great news for both the people directly involved in QA and all the rest of us who benefit from their labor. * https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Bodhi/2.0 * http://threebean.org/blog/bodhi2-karma-system-preview/ * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD_Bodhi2_Taskotron_2014 * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA Running Vagrant on Fedora with Libvirt -- Vagrant is a tool for creating and managing virtual machine images containing software development environments.

changing editor in m-c
I have spent sometime trying to figure out how to change the default editor in Midnight Commander. I am running XFCE most of the time on Fedora 19 I have tried suggestions from Googling including exporting EDITOR in $HOME/bashrc...running select-editor ( doesn't appear to be on Fedora )and creating a .select_editor text file in HOME. None have worked so far. If I open a terminal first then m-c loads the proper editor...but if I call m-c from a desktop file which loads a terminal, then loads m-c with the -e option then vi is loaded. I am missing something. -- 1984 was not meant as a blueprint for democratic governments. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I still think the new naming system is broken /by design/.
I believe you can edit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules and add
lines such as:
# Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5754 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express
SUBSYSTEM==net, ACTION==add, DRIVERS==?*,
ATTR{address}==00:1d:09:29:34:03, ATTR{type}==1, NAME=eth0
# PCI device 0x8086:0x1079 (e1000)
SUBSYSTEM==net, ACTION==add, DRIVERS==?*,
ATTR{address}==00:1b:21:08:0d:1c, ATTR{type}==1, KERNEL==eth*,
NAME=eth1
# PCI device 0x8086:0x1079 (e1000)
SUBSYSTEM==net, ACTION==add, DRIVERS==?*,
ATTR{address}==00:1b:21:08:0d:1d, ATTR{type}==1, KERNEL==eth*,
NAME=eth2
Each rule must be on a separate line, blank lines and those starting
with # are ignored.
After a reboot, this should cause the NIC with the MAC address
00:1d:09:29:34:03 to be named eth0, the one with MAC address
00:1b:21:08:0d:1c to be named eth1 and so on. There are other
attributes you can specify. I use this on F19 and F20.

I was successful with both of them (XP and 7) installed on VirtualBox in Linux. This sounds like the best solution. I asked and found that XP will still have the same vulnerability on a VM as if it were installed to its own partition. I came to the conclusion that if a given machine simply cannot run Win 7 because it's too slow, that it would be necessary to obtain a better machine, OR only use XP with no internet connection. This is possible if you dual boot with a Linux system. You can access the 'net via Linux, and transfer any needed download to XP from the Linux partition. A bit clumsy, but virus-free. (I don't actually know how to make sure that nothing can get thru the ethernet port to XP. I don't believe it's possible to remove Internet Explorer, and I don't know if it's still vulnerable if you never access it.) Of course, the other answer is not to have an ethernet connection at all, and to move all files to XP via USB sneakernet. --doug -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?

I am not sure how you would do it with udev. Thanks for the reference. But that can't be used after the interface is up, and my interfaces come up during boot. I think it must be udev or nothing, and nothing seems to win based on the link I posted previously. I still think the new naming system is broken /by design/.

I came to the conclusion that if a given machine simply cannot run Win 7 because it's too slow, that it would be necessary to obtain a better machine, OR only use XP with no internet connection. This is possible if you dual boot with a Linux system. You can access the 'net via Linux, and transfer any needed download to XP from the Linux partition. A bit clumsy, but virus-free. (I don't actually know how to make sure that nothing can get thru the ethernet port to XP. I don't believe it's possible to remove Internet Explorer, and I don't know if it's still vulnerable if you never access it.) Of course, the other answer is not to have an ethernet connection at all, and to move all files to XP via USB sneakernet. --doug -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
