similar to: Writes ordering in Ext3

Hi, I have a question on fsync() and ext3's journaling modes. Assume that I call fsync(fd) on a file. If that file is in 'data=journal' mode, would the fsync() return once the data gets safely into the journal ? On the other hand, if that file is in 'data=writeback' mode, would the fsync() return only when the data gets safely into its actual location ? Any help is

Hi, I have a doubt on how the transaction semantics work in ext3. When I copy a file, does the entire copy is treated as one transaction so that finally I have either the full file or no file. Or will it be split into multiple transactions which can result in copying partial files. thanks, Vijayan

Hi, I'm using linux 2.4.25 and I'm trying to change the wakeup interval of kupdate daemon. Is there a way to change that ? I once used 'update' tool for that. But that is not there in 2.4.25. Has it been removed ? I appreciate any help regarding this. thanks, Vijayan

Hi, Is it possible to use a separate journal device (one on a separate drive or a partition) shared among more than 1 Ext3 file systems ? I appreciate any inputs. thanks, Vijayan

Hi, Is there any way that one can change the location of the journal file when the file system is created ? For eg., instead of using inode# 7 and the blocks at the beginning of the file system, I'd like to use an inode at a different cylinder group and some other set of blocks. Even if I'm allowed only to use one of the reserved inodes, is it possible to put the journal file somewhere in

Dear R Group I have a matrix object in R, where i want to retain only those columns which have each row from a different group.. see the example below.. team1<-c("a1","a2","b1","b2","b3","c1","c2") teams<-combn(team1, 3) I want a function which will delete all columns in the teams matrix that have more than 1 row

Hi R Forum I am a newbie to R and I have been amazed by what I can get my team to accomplish just by implementing Scripting routines of R in all my team's areas of interest.. Recently i have been trying to adopt R scripting routine for some analysis with longitudanal data.. I am presenting my R script below that I have tried to make to automate data analysis for longitudanal data by employing

Hello r-help, I'm fitting a model with lm() and using the orthogonal polynomials from poly() as my basis: dat <- read.csv("ConsolidatedData.csv", header=TRUE) attach(dat) nrows <- 1925 Rad <- poly(Radius, 2) ntheta <- 14 Theta <- poly(T.Angle..deg., ntheta) nbeta <- 4 Beta <- poly(B.Beta..deg., nbeta) model.1 <- lm( Measurement ~ Block + Rad + Theta + Beta

Dear R Group Here is what i am trying to do.. but couldnt figure out how.. string<-"ABC DEFG HIJKLM NOPQ RSTUV WXY" string1<-substr(string,1,4) I want to create an R object string 2 ( following the logic shown).. R does not allow string subtraction.. any suggestions how to achieve this? string2<-string-string1 (it should now hold "DEFG HIJKLM NOPQ RSTUV WXY" I

Hello fellow R people, I can not figure out a pretty way to use strplit with vectors Imagine that I got the following data from someone with ID's representing several factors ID data A1-B1-t1 0 A1-B1-t2 1 A1-B2-t1 5 A1-B2-t2 10 A1-B10-t1 0 A1-B10-t2 1 A1-B20-t1 5 A1-B20-t2 10 ... I would like to turn this dataframe to station substation time data A1 B1 t1 0 A1 B1 t2 1 A1 B2 t1 5

There was a question in R forum very long time back.. on how to protect R Script files from inadvertent editing by users. There is a way to do this from within R, atleast in Windows XP I have tried this and it certainly works , The method is very different from the OS based folder protection route, however making available such a method in the open forum would only kill the very spirit of R.

Hi I am looking at generating a random dataset of say 100 values fitting in a normal distribution of a given mean and SD, I am aware of rnorm function. However i am trying to build into this function one added constraint that all the random value generated should also obey the constraint that they only take values between say X to X+25 How do i do this in R? Any help would be highly appreciated,.

Dear R Group I have a character vector from which I want to select a few elements and create a new character vector. I need a GUI to do this in R Script. Can someone help? a<-c("A","B","C","D","E") ## I want to have a GUI in R that will display elements in "object a" as a drop down list.. from there I want to be able to select a

Dear R-helpers; While using gnls() to fit a function > Gbht0t.gnls <- gnls(h2 ~ Rht(b0, b1, b2, h1,t1, t2), data=gbht10, + params=list(b0 + b1 + b2 ~ Sisp -1), start=c(strssb0,strssb1,strssb2)) I encountered an error: "Error in model.frame(formula, rownames, variables, varnames, extras, extranames, : invalid variable type " Rht is a defined function to be

Hi all, I'm trying to test a repeated measures model with random effects using the nlme library. Suppose I have two within subjects factors A, B both with two levels. Using aov I can do: aov.1 <- aov(y ~ A*B + Error(S/(A+B)) following Pinheiro and Bates I can acheive the analagous mixed-effects model with: lme.1 <- lme(y~A*B, random=pdBlocked(list(pdIdent(~1),pdIdent(~A-1),

@Don your solution does not solve Vijayan's scenario 2. I used spread and gather for that. An alternative solution to insert mising Fval - picking up with Don's newtst - is newtst <- c("FName: fname1", "Fval: Fval1.name1", "FName: fname2", "Fval: Fval2.name2", "FName: fname3", "FName: fname4", "Fval: fval4.fname4")

Using Ulrik?s example data (and assuming I understand what is wanted), here is what I would do: ex.dat <- c("FName: fname1", "Fval: Fval1.name1", "Fval: ", "FName: fname2", "Fval: Fval2.name2", "FName: fname3") tst <- data.frame(x = ex.dat, stringsAsFactors=FALSE) sp <- strsplit(tst$x, ':', fixed=TRUE) chk <-

Hi Vijayan, one way going about it *could* be this: library(dplyr) library(tidyr) library(purrr) ex_dat <- c("FName: fname1", "Fval: Fval1.name1", "Fval: ", "FName: fname2", "Fval: Fval2.name2", "FName: fname3") data.frame(x = ex_dat) %>% separate(x, c("F1", "F2"), sep = ": ") %>% filter(F2
