Hi all, I just installed centos 5.4 xen-kernel on intel core i5 machine as dom0. After some hours of syncing a raid10 array (8 sata disk) I noticed a steadily increasing loadavg. I think without reasonable i/o wait or cpu utilization the loadavg on this system should be very lower. If this loadavg is normal I would be greatful if somone could explain why. The screenshots below show that there is neither much i/o wait nor much cpu utilization. top - 09:1...

Hi guys, After having received strong advice from the people in this list to upgrade my kernel to the latest one, I have installed 3.8.0-14-generic #24-Ubuntu SMP x86_64 on several (4) machines. In the hope of improving systems speed I had also removed all snapshots then defragged the FSes - the snapshots have been recreated since, as I use the excellent SuSE "Snapper" tool. But well,

Dovecot is delivering mail to my ~/.mail directory wonderfully. But /var/mail/michael is growing steadily. Is it the job of Dovecot to purge this file regularly? Is there a setting somewhere for this? Thanks, Michael

Hi, Running samba sernet 4.1.6-7, I've noticed the load avg slowly / steadily creeping up (.e.g > 100). I'm now noticing that several smbd processes are at 100%. I don't actually notice that much bandwidth usage on the system (e.g. iptraf/iftop). Any idea what's causing this? Restarting smbd helps for a few days, but then the high load avg returns. Thanks, S...

Hello, The Puppet footprint within my company is steadily growing, We took the basic steps to make it more robust (passenger + apache) but in order to meet the needs of a 24x7 shop I need redundancy. I''ve read the Reductive Labs WIKI about redundancy (http://reductivelabs.com/ trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/HighAvailability) but I was wondering if anyo...

...vely support an unsupported version of Gnome3, and backporting > I think would have been more than deeply unpleasant. Or they could simply have gone with KDE 4, a stable and mature desktop at the time RHEL 7.0 was out. And not an abomination that had to be potty-trained from scratch again while steadily losing features every other minor upgrade.

Hello there, We (a small hosting community) are running a steadily growing number of Xen domUs on a quad dualcore Xeon server with 64GB ram. We''ve got 100 running domUs at the moment. Trying to create a new one results in this error: Error: (1, ''Internal error'', ''launch_vm: SETVCPUCONTEXT failed (rc=-1)\n'') If I shu...

Hi all, I have been trying to investigate traffic shaping in an effort to solve the "unfriendly network apps" problem on a test network. I have a basis by which I''d like to shape traffic, but studying the howto doesn''t uncover and existing qdisc that seems to fit what I would like to do. The problem I would like to address is to prevent an IP address opening 10

...dquot_6.5.1 Dquot-cache hash table entries: 512 (order 0, 4096 bytes) This is with the default kernel configs xen-unstable provides. NX is enabled on the EM64T. I could not find a similar BIOS option for Opteron. Even through they are "stuck", cpu time for these domains increments steadily. Any ideas? -Andrew _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

...when I was writing to a 6 TB ext4 filesystem. This was a real shocker. http://sites.google.com/site/andrewl733info/ext4_and_samba_2 On the above system (which had 6 GB of RAM), it seems that most cpu activity was restricted to a single core of a Quad Core CPU. SMBD cpu utilization climbed steadily throughout the capture. CPU began at 7 percent for one core and by the time I got to 66000 frames, I was at 100 percent cpu for one core. I started taking screen shots a third of the way through. Then I went back and started again. I also tested XFS as the filesystem. In fact, that's my p...

...ery nicely and is the ONLY reason we were able to fully convert all of our computers to linux. We even sell gaming PCs with World of Warcraft thanks to Wine. We were just wondering if the developers of Wine ever considered selling compatibility to software vendors. Since the linux user market is steadily growing reaching this market would be huge and would not require much effort. Software can be simply developed for Windows based systems with Wine compatibility in mind. What Wine developers can sell these companies is for example a list of usable functions that software packages have access to an...

Hi, just got this oops on one of my production servers (4way smp + highmem). Is it fixed in newer kernels or is it something new?

Has anyone noticed (using the linux command 'top') a gradual increase in memory usage when asterisk is under heavy processing? I am currently pumping 4 ISDN spans (T-1) through my asterisk test system, and have seen the memory used value in top climb steadily each second. Concurrently, the value for "cached" in top also climbs, but occasionally it drops, as well. Eventually, I start eating into swap and asterisk typically starts dropping calls. A reboot is required to recover the memory, unless someone here knows of a less drastic method...

Hey folks, I've got a RHEL 4.3 system (one of the few I have not yet converted to CentOS) that is running DB2 ... looks like 8.1 Just noticed that committed memory on my Munin graphs has been steadily climbing on a constant curve - yikes! There are 16G of physical ram and the commit is up to 80G now. Fortunately this is evidently not being accessed because I am not doing any swapping. I've been googling for over an hour now - found lots of interesting stuff to read up on, but not exactly w...

...spacebar, he makes a high jump. However, under wine all jumps are low. Other movements work fine though. I even tried to run the game under winxp guest in VirtualBox, but had the same problem. reassigning keys doesn't help. I just don't get it: when holding the movement keys, the char moves steadily. That means, the game knows, that I hold the key. Why it doesn't see that when I hold the "jump" key? Multimedia timers maybe? wine-1.1.26 xf86-video-ati 6.12.2 xorg-server 1.6.2

Hi to the list. SuSE 9.1, Samba 3.04, + cups, dns, dhcp, apache2, squid, SuSEfirewall2. 2 x 2.0 GHz cpu + 2GB mem. Essentially LAN only. Problem: Server stops responding to logons, logged on users kicked out of home-drives. This happens twice a normal working day. Memory seems to dribble away steadily but surely... My link via ssh (PUtty) stays good. Question: This has been frustrating me for some time, and I can't seem to pin down the cause (my knowledge is in puberty). I have come to the point of re-instalation, (copout?), but maybe someone came across this before and is willing to point...

My wife just got laid off - the recession has hit her law firm hard. This means my priorities have shifted to either finding more paying work myself or helping her find another job. This means the timeframe for a finished repo conversion just got more uncertain, as I may not be able to work steadily on it for a while. -- <a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/">Eric S.

....1 out of the box. In addition, it has a PERC2/SC Single Channel RAID card for six 18GB LVD SCSI drives. The problem is that, while we're not doing anything fancy with samba, basic file share stuff, the load seems to spike whenever writes are done. When doing a large file copy, the load will steadily rise to about 7 or 8, and then the share stops responding, killing any file copy taking place. It's not the RAID that's causing the problem per se; when I do a large file copy on the server, the copy works just fine without a load spike taking place. Has anyone else had this problem befo...

Hi all, Recently I have upgraded a Python application from Xapian 1.0.7 to 1.2.2 in order to use the PostingSource class. It is a long-running process, and I am seeing the number of open file descriptors to the Xapian database steadily increase. I suspect what I am seeing is some kind of resource leak. I have no idea if it is a problem in our code or in the Xapian Python bindings. How do I debug this problem? Regards, Joost -- Joost Cassee http://joost.cassee.net

I have a number simple R functions written for the biologists I work with. These functions will evolve, and the documentation will get steadily better. I hope to put them in a package on a local webserver, along with lots of help files, so that the users can easily update their installation. The functions are pure R, with no compiled code, but alias, I cannot figure out how to build this package so that it is portable across operating sy...
