Re: Re-starting a gjournal provider
I'm moving this discussion to freebsd-questions, which is probably a more suitable forum (if not freebsd-geom). I apologize for the intrusion and the subsequent crosspost. Anthony Chavez wrote: Hello freebsd-fs, I'm trying to get gjournal working on a removable hard disk. I use the term loosely, because I'm using a very simple eSATA enclosure: an AMS Venus DS5 [1]. If I swap out disks, atacontrol cap ad0 seems sufficient enough to detect the new drive: the reported device model, serial number, firmware revision, and CHS values change as one would expect. My interpretation of [2] section 5.3 and gjournal(8) is that the following sequence of commands should ensure me that all write buffers have been flushed and bring the system to a point where it is safe to remove a disk. sync; sync; sync gjournal sync umount /dev/ad0s1.journal gjournal stop ad0s1.journal However, once they are executed, /dev/ad0s1.journal disappears and when I swap out the disk it doesn't come back. The only way I've found to bring it back is atacontrol detach ata0; atacontrol attach ata0, which doesn't seem like a wise thing to do if I have another device on the same channel. My question is, do I need to issue gjournal stop before I swap disks? And if so, is there any way that I can avoid the atacontrol detach/attach cycle that would need to take place before any mount is attempted so that /dev/ad0s1.journal appears (if in the drive inserted at the time does in fact utilize gjournal; I may want to experiment with having disks with either gjournal or soft updates)? And while I'm on the subject, are the (gjournal) syncs commands preceeding umount absolutely necessary in the case of removable media?

UFS2 or ZFS for 3TB disk?
The subject says it all. I will soon be installing an Areca ARC-1110 and 3x 1.5TB Seagate Barracuda SATAs into a 3.2GHz Northwood P4 with 1GB of RAM, and I'm wondering which would be the most stable filesystem to use. I've read the bigdisk page [1] and the various information about ZFS on the FreeBSD Wiki [2]. I'm aware of the tuning requirements that ZFS requires, and upgrading to 4GB of RAM would be quite possible as it was understood beforehand that ZFS requires a large quantity of it. My questions are as follows. 1. I'm aware of the fact that ZFS works better on 64-bit platforms, and that alone has me thinking that it's not a good fit for this particular machine. But apart from that, it seems that ZFS is not yet stable enough for my environment (only about 25 users but in production nonetheless). To me, [3] paints all sorts of ugly pictures, which can be summarized as count on ZFS-related panics and deadlocks happening fairly regularly and disabling ZIL in the interest of stability will put your data at risk. Comments about live systems using ZFS (on 7.0-RELEASE or 7-STABLE) would be appreciated. 2. [1] appears to be a bit dated. Nevertheless, I'm inclined to think that the status described there (as well as in various man pages) still applies to UFS2 on 7.0-RELEASE. Please correct me if I'm wrong or let me know if the state of affairs has improved significantly in 7-STABLE. 2a. Does the information contained in [1] apply to ZFS as well? 3. As the array will be for data only and not be booted, will it be possible to use fdisk to slice it up, or will I need to use gpt? 4. My planned course of action will be to attempt to newfs the device itself (da0, all 3TB of it) or 1 full-disk slice (da0s1). Failing that, I will attempt to gconcat da0s1 and da0s2 (1.5TB each), although I suspect that may not work since for one thing, growfs is not yet 64-bit clean. In either case, I'm very interested in using gbde/geli to encrypt the fs. If either of these paths are not possible or recommended, are there any suggestions for alternate means of creating a 3TB fs? 4a. If gconcat'ing 2 slices together (or some other suggetion) will in fact work, would doing so effectively work around the userland tool incompatibilities mentioned in [1]? Thank you!

RAID migration
Dear freebsd-questions, I have a HighPoint 1820 RAID controller that is using 1 channel for an OS drive and 3 channels for a RAID-5 array. I'm interested in migrating to a new (possibly non-HighPoint) card, and am wondering if I will be able to plug the OS drive into one channel on the new card and have it just work. Is it a safe bet that it will? I'm curious to know if the array could be migrated just as easily, or if I should listen to my instinct and count on bumping into incompatibilities due to proprietary implementations. Here are the relevant dmesg lines of my system as it stands: hptrr: HPT RocketRAID controller driver v1.1 (Jun 7 2008 14:01:57) hptmv0: RocketRAID 182x SATA Controller mem 0xf200-0xf207 irq 24 at device 1.0 on pci2 hptmv0: [GIANT-LOCKED] hptmv0: [ITHREAD] hptrr: no controller detected. da0 at hptmv0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: Maxtor 6 Y080M0 YAR5 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device da1 at hptmv0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0 da1: RR182x RAID 5 Array 3.00 Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device -- Anthony Chavez http://hexadecagram.org/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is it a safe bet that it will? It probably will work, assuming that the OS disk is not configured as a RAID or array member in the RAID cards' BIOS. Meaning, if you're using the disk on the controller purely in a JBOD fashion, yes, it should work. In the WebGUI's logical device information section, that particular drive is listed as a hard disk whereas the other 3 are clearly spelled out as a RAID 5 array. When I shut the machine down, I will check the BIOS itself to see if it specifically states JBOD. Thanks for the pointer. Regardless, I will be backing it up before I attempt to plug it into a new RAID controller. I'm curious to know if the array could be migrated just as easily, or if I should listen to my instinct and count on bumping into incompatibilities due to proprietary implementations. I can absolutely guarantee you that you will lose access to all of your data once you plug those 3 disks into another controller. You need to back up all of your data from the RAID-5 array using something like rsync, cpdup, or dump, move the disks over to the non-RAID controller, format them (in whatever fashion you want), and then restore the backup. Exactly what I planned to do, but figured I'd ask anyhow. ;-) Thank you for responding. -- Anthony Chavez http://hexadecagram.org/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Stress testing and TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA
Greetings, freebsd-questions! I've got a number of machines to deploy in very critical locations *very* soon, so I'd appreciate any expedient responses that I can get about this. I have been affected by the recent issues surrounding the recent ATA driver changes in the 5.x branch. I'm currently tracking RELENG_5_4 (FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p6) on systems with ICH4 and ICH6 UDMA controllers. I recently applied Soeren's patch [1] on an ICH4 system, and put a significant write load (/usr/ports/sysutils/stress -i4 -d4) on it for almost 2 weeks. Here are the results: Aug 13 21:10:01 witproto sudo: acc : TTY=ttyp5 ; PWD=/usr/home/acc ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/local/bin/stress -i 4 -d 4 Aug 19 21:31:14 witproto kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=7879615 Aug 21 07:59:57 witproto kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=3775775 Aug 23 23:01:41 witproto kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=5560159 Aug 25 12:06:50 witproto kernel: ad0: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=5786623 FWIW, my hardware is: atapci0: Intel ICH4 UDMA100 controller port 0xffa0-0xffaf,0x376,0x170-0x177,0x3f6,0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 18 at device 31.1 on pci0 ad0: 76293MB SAMSUNG SP0802N TK100-28 at ata0-master UDMA100 During the test, the drive remained in UDMA100 mode and throughput varied from 18ish to 50ish MB/s (eyeball average approx. 20-25 MB/s).

I have successfully worked around the problem by passing -DLITE to make

The following binaries remain affected (there are others, but they are
irrelevant to vim):
/usr/X11R6/bin/glxinfo:

libc.so.4 = /usr/lib/libc.so.4 (0x28264000)
What is causing this? My first suspicion is ccache. Could it be that I
have set the following variables in /etc/make.conf?
CC=/usr/local/bin/cc
CPP=/usr/local/bin/cpp
CXX=/usr/local/bin/c++
( /usr/local/bin/c{c,pp,++} are symlinked to /usr/local/bin/ccache. )
Apart from that, the only difference between the system in question and
a stock FreeBSD installation is the following MARK_ARGS pair in
/usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf:
'editors/vim' = '-DLITE -DWITH_CSCOPE -DWITH_PERL -DWITH_PYTHON -DWITH_RUBY

Certain 4.10 apps failing to run as root

I don't know why but you may use any mirror, for example anoncvs.de.freebsd.org if it is acceptable to you. You may change Root files using following script I was aware of the other servers. I should have done this before posting, but after measuring hops and latency, the Japanese mirror is actually a better mirror for me than the one in the US. So, thanks for the script! It will prove useful. :-) -- Anthony Chavez http://www.anthonychavez.org/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: Samba: very strange truncation error
On Tue, 28 Oct 2003 12:53:03 -0500 Brandon Lodriguss [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Anthony, Hi Brandon. I'm following up to my post to freebsd-questions with your response. I was searching the net for some help with a problem it appears you've had before (saw an email of yours on the freebsd-questions mailing list)...A bunch of Samba error messages that say can't connect to service _. I'm not having much luck, I have 4 samba fileservers running, all configured virtually identically except for different share names...Two of which are having this problem, and two of which aren't. Define configured virutally identically. In what ways do they differ, exactly? Assuming they're all FreeBSD boxen, were they each built from the same source tree? Did you ever have any success in finding out why this was happening? Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated. I received no response from freebsd-questions, so I posted to the samba mailing list (http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/), but received no response from that list, either. I have been ignoring the problem (well, that's not entirely accurate---I purchased a Powerbook to replace my dying Win2k notebook) since I posted, but AFAIK, it hasn't been resolved. Based on the description of your configuration, you probably have the better chance of determining root cause. I currently have many other priorities, so I will be unable to look into this any deeper until further notice. One possible solution would be to upgrade to 3.0.0 (net/samba-devel). I have yet to do so myself, but I'm hoping that by doing so, cosmic rays will shine down from the distribution servers and send the issue hurtling off to /dev/null, at least for the time being. :-) Best of luck! -- Anthony Chavez http://www.anthonychavez.org/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Wed, 27 Aug 2003 10:25:23 -0600 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Fellow Samba- and FreeBSD-lovers: I'm encountering a very peculiar error. I first encountered it when doing an upgrade to Samba 2.2.8a (from a fairly recent version---I don't recally exactly which, but it couldn't have been older than 2.2.7) on FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE. The error I'm encountering is twofold. In the first example, I try to connect to the shared service, which results in the following: [2003/08/26 18:21:17, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) aphrodite (192.168.1.4) couldn't find service share Second, when trying to connect to service acc I get: [2003/08/18 13:36:22, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) aphrodite (192.168.1.4) couldn't find service accproject.ede [2003/08/18 13:36:22, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(252) aphrodite (192.168.1.4) couldn't find service accmakefile.am The former example doesn't seem to phase Win2k SP4 at all, but certain apps (such as Emacs 21.3.1) freeze up when the latter is encountered. However, when I try to access the acc service again, it works fine (i.e., it alternates from functional to non-functional, ad nauseum). I've tried rebuilding a couple of times, which doesn't fix the problem at all. The make variables (which should be obvious to any FreeBSD user experienced with portupgrade and fairly straightforward to everyone else) I pass to the build process are: -DWITH_AUDIT -DWITH_RECYCLE -DWITH_SSL -DWITH_UTMP -DWITH_MSDFS -DWITHOUT_CUPS -DWITH_WINBIND_AUTH_CHALLENGE I would very much appreciate any insight that you could lend. This is only a slight nuisance, but one that is starting become slightly more irritating as time goes on. I've included my (very minimal) smb.conf below.
