What I'm trying to determine is what caused the change in temp file writing
behaviour on the server, and if this is the kind behaviour likely on a heavily
loaded box with cpu running at 100% (which this system is). i.e, do processes
like cvs that write tmp files suddenly start writing more temp files when
starved for cpu, leading to this kind of behaviour?
Thanks,
Traiano

Recently the system has been running at high load (average 8, and cpu 100%),
and even more recently we've started seeing the following types of error when
we do cvs commits on the system. The system has between 150 to 200 users on it

The disks are definitely not full (this shows up in df -hi), both in terms of storage
space and inode utilisation. However the cpu utilisation is permanently at 100%, and
we're aware of which processes are causing the utilisation. My question is: Is it
possible, under some circumstances that cpu starvation could result in the type of
filesystem is full errors we're seeing above?

Hi,
I recently updated a machine (running on VMWare) from 7.2 to 8.1.
This machine has two (virtual) disks. While the upgrade went rather
smooth ('make buildworld, make buildkernel, make installkernel, reboot
into single user, mergemaster -p, make installworld, mergemaster,
reboot), I lost the partition on the second harddrive.
So after reboot, the machine went directly in single user mode, because
my /dev/ad1s1a was gone. The only devices in /dev where ad1 (the disk)
and ad1s1 (the slice).
Since I had a backup this didn't seem to be such a problem, however
recreating the slice was.
The only way I could get rid of that slice was through the gpart utility
(sysinstall wouldn't help me at all):
gpart delete ad1s1
gpart destroy ad1
After that sysinstall worked again. Is there any way around this (and
preferably rescue the partition somehow, since I have more machines to
upgrade, and while backups are there, restoring creates an additional
delay in the whole process).
Also, the numbering of the NICs changed from le0 to le1, which isn't
that a big problem, but rather annoying.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Installing FreeBSD on multy hosts
Proskurin Kirill wrote: Hello all. I search some guides - how to install FreeBSD on 10+ hosts at once. As I understand right - it is some thing about PXE and some install.cfg. Another idea is to make one installation and make an image of it. With clonezilla it will be able to use pxe to install it on many hosts. http://clonezilla.org/ After you install your image, you must, how Wojciech Puchar told you, change ip (or you use dhcp), hostname and other stuff like this. I've not tested clonezilla, but at work i use acronis trueimage to install windows on clients.
