Hi Guys, I am a new puppet user and wanted some type of monitoring for puppet so deployed puppet-dashboard. It has been working very well for a few days not, but all of a sudden I start getting pending tasks and they never finish even after restarting all processes. They keep accumulating and never seem to finish even though the clients are running fine. I have the puppet-dashboard

Hi Guys, I am new to puppet and trying to figure out what is the best way to manage a password for a specific user in the /etc/shadow file. Most of my users are being authenticated to kerberos but there is a need to set a local password for this one account. What would be the best method to do this via puppet? I have built my own rpm''s in the past using the chpasswd command but

Hi Guys, I am new to puppet so please let me know if this is not the correct place for asking this question. I am setting up a new puppet environment running the latest 3.x version. I have the puppet master and client setup correctly and tested with deploying a simple file to the client. Now, I am working on adding all the configs to SVN since I will have all my users checkout the

Hi Guys, Anyone have any information on bugzilla 1324635. This seems like a private bug being tracked by redhat but is major and impacting us. Basically nfs gets impacted with large writes. Thanks!

Hi Guys, My users are reporting some issues with memory on our lustre 1.8.1 clients. It looks like when they submit a single job at a time the run time was about 4.5 minutes. However, when they ran multiple jobs (10 or less) on a client with 192GB of memory on a single node the run time for each job was exceeding 3-4X the run time for the single process. They also noticed that the swap space

Hey Guys, I am trying to convince my co-workers to move from Exchange 2003 to a unix implementation of sendmai/dovecot. They have a couple of concerns that I am sure can be resolved. First, is there a way for dovecot running on a linux server to authenticate a user to a windows 2003 domain controller? If so, then where can I get information on how to implement and test this feature? Also, do

Hello, I am planning on deploying a few more clients in my lustre environment and was wondering which client version to install. I know it is okay to run a newer client version than your lustre server for upgrade purposes. However, would it be okay to be in this state for a longer period of time (for the life of this filesystem)? My lustre server is currently running 1.8.1.1 on RHEL 5.3 and I

Hi Guys, I had a situation yesterday where I had a 10Gbe adapter on my lustre client configured but not active (the cable was plugged in and had link but the port was down) and this actually brought down our cisco switch. This is a new port that I am setting up. The reason why the switch went down was due to the amount of broadcast traffic coming from this port even though it was shutdown:

Hello, I have a CentOS 7 system configured as a samba server using ADS security. I am able to get users to login from PC's that are part of the AD domain but users coming from systems that are not part of the AD domain are not able to access the smb shares. Here is more information about the enviornment and issue: -- # rpm -qa | grep -i samba samba-client-4.6.2-12.el7_4.x86_64

Hello, We have a small setup where we write files on a Windows system to a samba mounted location coming from a linux system. This linux system has NVME disks and 10gige connections. We are getting slow write performance and our setup should be able to get better write speeds. I am attaching our config files and hoping someone can assist with tuning our smb.conf for getting better performance:

Hey Guys, I was able to get dovecot running on my linux server using kerb authentication against our windows 2003 domain controller. Is there a way for me to use the windows active directory for looking up names on the email clients? I have tried setting the base dn to the following under microsoft outlook: dc=domain,dc=com cn=users,dc=domain,dc=com However, I am unable to lookup any names.
