Got a HBS (y'know, Honkin' Big Server, one o' them technical terms), a Dell 720 with two Tesla GPUs. I updated the o/s, 6.5, and I cannot get the GPUs recognized. As a last resort, I d/l NVidia's proprietary driver/installer, 325, and it builds fine... I've yum removed the kmod-nvidia I had on the system, no...

We're looking at getting an HBR (that's a technical term, honkin' big RAID). What I'm considering is, rather than chopping it up into 14TB or 16TB filesystems, of using xfs for really big filesystems. The question that's come up is: what's the state of xfs on CentOS6? I've seen a number of older threads seeing problems with it - has that most...

...e command that tells it to create the device in /dev/mapper from the info in /etc/crypttab. Clues for the poor? Yes, the server will, at some point in the future, go to CentOS 7, but that needs my user to be off for a while, and his jobs run literally for weeks, with loads upwords of 30 on an HBS (honkin' big server).... mark

Guys, I was thrown a cheap OEM-server with a 120 GB SSD and 10 x 4 TB SATA-disks for the data-backup to build a backup server. It's built around an Asus Z87-A that seems to have problems with anything Linux unfortunately. Anyway, BackupPC is my preferred backup-solution, so I went ahead to install another favourite, CentOS 6.4 - and failed. The raid controller is a Highpoint RocketRAID

CentOS 6.6 I've got two servers, server1 and hbs (honkin' big server). Both are running munge, and torque... *separately*. My problem is that I've got users who want to be able to submit from server1 to hbs. I see that munged can be pointed to an alternate keyfile... but is there any way to tell qsub what to use? (And yes, I got on the torque us...

Wow! Is that horrendous mouse warp bug finally fixed? Since updating the Wine version from the repo for my distro recently all the games I have that are affected by this huge honkin' hairy humongous mouse bug seem to be working better. If it is really officially fixed and not just some weird anomaly in my machine, I'd like to know just exactly what was causing it and how they fixed it.

Hi everyone, I updated the kernel from 3.10.0-514.16.1.el7.x86_64 to 3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.x86_64 . While I was following these steps https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom (I knew that I needed to compile again everything) in order to activate WIFI, the laptop crashed doing # depmod -a # modprobe wl Noting that I replaced (naively) # depmod $(uname -r) from the guide (stupid

I have a complex graph of ActiveRecord entities that I want to load with one big honkin'' join query to avoid ripple loading. It''s for a report. However :include doesn''t get me all the way there because I want to load parents of parents (or children of children). I don''t mind doing the SQL by hand but I''m not quite sure what to do to ge...

Hello everyone, I've just lost my whole EXT3 linux partition by what was probably a bug. For your reading pleasure, and in the hope there is enough information to fix this problem in the future, here the story of a violent ending: This tragic history starts actually on windows: MS Word had wiped out an important file on a floppy, and I got the task of retrieving what was possible. Using

G''day, all, So, I''ve decided to migrate my home server from Linux+swRAID+LVM to Solaris+ZFS, because it seems to hold much better promise for data integrity, which is my primary concern. However, naturally, I decided to do some benchmarks in the process, and I don''t understand why the results are what they are. I though I had a reasonable understanding of ZFS, but now

Hi Folks, I''ve got a 3.9 Tb zpool, and it is casing kernel panics on my Solaris 10 280r (SPARC) server. The message I get on panic is this: panic[cpu1]/thread=2a100a95cc0: zfs: freeing free segment (offset=423713792 size=1024) This seems to come about when the zpool is being used or being scrubbed - about twice a day at the moment. After the reboot, the scrub seems to have
