similar to: state of ide raid

Hello, This afternoon I wanted to upgrade to 7.1 two good old dell PowerEdge servers which were running FreeBSD 6.x. It went fine and quickly on the poweredge 1950, but it failed completely on the poweredge 1850. Facts: - boot cd and setup / operation of freebsd 6.x or 7.0 is fine Message log abstract: $ uname -v FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p7 #0: Sun Dec 21 08:31:52 UTC 2008

Dear Sirs. It seems to me a never ending story. We run a box with a TYAN Thunder 2500 Dual SMP mainboard, 2GB ECC Tyan certified memory, AMI Enterprise 1600 RAID adapter and additional Intel 1000/Pro server type (64 bit) GBit LAN NIC. With FreeBSD 4.8 this was stable, but to achive this state was really hard! It is a story similar to that what happend when we changed towards FreeBSD

Hi, I have a LSI Logic sata/sas raid running, is there a way to see the state of the volume, like optimal, degraded or resyncing? I've tried several commands with camcontrol but I cant figure it out. -- Peter Ankerst?l peter@pean.org http://www.pean.org/

Hello, I think this needs a few more eyes: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-scsi/2009-January/003782.html In short, writes are slow, likely do to the write-cache being enabled on the controller. The sysctl used in 6.x to turn the cache off don't seem to be in 7.x. Thanks, Charles ___ Charles Sprickman NetEng/SysAdmin Bway.net - New York's Best Internet - www.bway.net

Hi, Thank you for your work on this card! I have quite a few boxes that run various 3wares cards with diverse firmware revs. Are there any caveats with respect to models and firmware versions in terms of how they might interact ? ---Mike At 01:25 PM 10/08/2003 -0700, Paul Saab wrote: >ps 2003/08/10 13:25:46 PDT > > FreeBSD src repository > >

I love it... I buy a half a million dollars worth of Trashiba's finest ... I download Asterisk for free... I now refer to it as legacy 18 months and 300 extensions later! Anyway, I am trying to integrate my dial plans acrossed platforms.

I have not used RAID controller boards to date since I have relied on the built in RAID on the motherboards. Thanks to the informative message Byron, I realize the deficiencies of doing RAID 1 this way, especially now that the builtin is out of date with Kernel used by Centos. I have 4 ATA drives that were configured in two pairs. I assume that I need a 3Wave controller that has 4 ports

Dear all, Browsing through the securityfocus vulnerability database I found two items, that might interesting for the FreeBSD community: 1. GNU GNATS Syslog() Format String Vulnerability http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10609 GNATS is vital part of the PR handling of FreeBSD. I think security officers should contact developers of GNU GNATS about this issue to resolve the potential problem.

I'm currently running version 2.0.7 of samba(CIFS9000). I have HPUX 11.x installed on the samba server. When I try to run this from inetd it doesn't work. I can run a startup script that runs the smbd as a daemon and it works fine. But if I try to run it from inetd it won't start. The previous version of Samba 1.9.18p10 that I had on this server worked fine. Is this a bug in

Hello All, I encountered the same problem as reported to this list earlier, http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2009-February/048305.html, but then with 7.1-RELEASE-p4. Interestingly enough, FreeBSD booted fine on the machine installed (updated from 7.0 to 7.1-RELEASE-p4). This machine is a PowerEdge 1850 bios A04 with Perc 43/Si bios H430 / fwVer 521S.

I want to install CentOS 5.1 with hardware RAID on an HP DL140 G3 server that I have here for testing. It prompts me for a storage controller. According to this readme page for the latest driver at ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib2/software1/pubsw-linux/p1463703615/v44436/mpt linux-4.00.13.01-2.rhel5.i686.dd.gz.txt CentOS 5 should already contain a "default driver version contained in the Red

All, This is slightly OT, but I figure a bunch of folks running IMAP servers should have some strong opinions on the topic. While working on a migration to Dovecot, I had the opportunity to move one account to a server running same. This is an in-house billing department box that 3-4 people share. In theory, this should work well - all the billing folks see the same email, save sent mail

Attached patch allows isolinux to boot from a CDROM attached to a NCR/Symbios/LSIlogic SCSI controller (bios version 4.19). It appears this bios can't read more than 1 sector at the time using the ah=42h int13 call. The isolinux boot was failing early on when 4 sector are read. (bios returned error 0 !) I'm not sure if the same 'getlinsec' routine is called upon later to load

I am working to transition a primary school to Linux on the desktop. So far, the only stop I've encountered is getting their gradebook software to run. They use ThinkWave Educator. You can d/l the app here; http://www.thinkwave.org/Downloads/twe28132.exe I would appreciate any help and pointers. Thank you

Hi, I've been playing around with pam_mysql, and have it working for interactive logins (backed by /etc/passwd entries for uid/gid w/*'d password field) and it works well so far. Looking at the source to the module, it does support password changing. So I put in the following entry in pam.conf: sshd password required pam_mysql.so user=root db=pam table=users crypt=1 However,

Hello, I'm setting up a test server to work through the issues involved in bringing a bunch of vpopmail/qmail/courier users into a postfix/dovecot server. So far I'm seeing lots of info to aid in the transition. One thing I'm lost on is that since Dovecot is providing all the auth mechanisms rather than vpopmail, I'm not sure how to emulate a particular vpopmail behavior we

Hi, I've just started playing around with rsync (latest - 2.4.6) over ssh (openssh 2.9p2) on FreeBSD to sync up home directories on a pair of web servers. It all works great, but in trying to get a script going out of cron to automate this, I'm finding that there's about a 50/50 chance that at the end of the run, rsync will hang indefinetly. I thought perhaps it was something with
