Hi! I have 2 identical hdd (1002FBYS) with the same firmware, etc .. really identical! when i try to add the second hdd to this raid1 array i have the message that /dev/sdb is not large enough to join array!! on the first hdd i have 100 mb unpartitioned at the end of disk (as i understood that mdadm put there some info...) Anyone, any idea what can be wrong? i already done this procees several times and this is first time i encounter this and i have no idea what can be the problem .. Thanks!

...ow how to expand a LVM by creating a new drive as described here: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2007-February/032664.html, the steps are: # pvcreate /dev/sda3 # vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda3 Now, I want to know how to expand a LVM without create /dev/sda3? Suppose I have 2 GB free (unpartitioned) and LVM use /dev/sda2 (8 GB). How to make /dev/sda2 become 10 GB? Then resize LVM to 10 GB.

Hi I have noticed that some versions of syslinux later than 1.66 fail to install a working boot block on a CF card in Soekris net4521 board. The Bios is: comBIOS ver. 1.05 20020419 Copyright (C) 2000-2001 Soekris Engineering. The card is a 64M Sandisk and I am useing a version of LEAF called WISP-dist but I also experianced the same problem with the Bering distro. Here is my syslinux.cfg:

Has anyone worked with either the Hitachi or Seagate Compact flash drives in an IDE to CF interface and set the up with EXT3 formatted partitions for use with LVM? I ASSuME that LVM is not for FAT32 formatted drives.

I'm pretty sure that's not necessary. I've been able to simply change the device type to RAID in the installer and get mirrored partitions. If you do your setup entirely in Anaconda, your partitions should all end up fine. > At this point I needed to copy my /boot/efi and /bo...

We have a machine that's a distro mirror - a *lot* of data, not just CentOS. We had the data on /dev/sdc. I added another drive, /dev/sdd, and created that as /dev/md4, with --missing, made an ext4 filesystem on it, and rsync'd everything from /dev/sdc. Note that we did this on *raw*, unpartitioned drives (not my idea). I then umounted /dev/sdc, and mounted /dev/md4, and it looked fine; I added /dev/sdc to /dev/md4, and it started rebuilding. Then I was told to reboot it, right after the rebuild started. I don't know if that was the problem. At any rate, it came back up... and /dev/sdc i...

Hi Chris, thanks for your answer. It is the first time I decided to encrypt my lvm. I choosed to encrypt the volume group, not every logical volume itself, because in case of doing lvm snapshots in that group they will be encrypted too? And how do I create a new encrypted volume group? Regards Tim Am 6. M?rz 2015 01:58:23 MEZ, schrieb Chris Murphy <lists at colorremedies.com>: >On

...his information. So this post is a little long, but consider it complete. Brand new Dell system with two 3GB drives in this system with RAID1 LVM taking all the space outside the boot partitions. I initially created the sda[1,2] and sdb[1,2] partitions via GParted leaving the remaining space unpartitioned. A gpt partition table was put on both drives. During installation Anaconda recognized everything properly which resulted in the following partition summary: sda1 /boot/efi 500 MB EFI System Partition sda2 /boot 500 MB xfs vg_jab-hostroot / 8 GB LVM xfs RAID1 vg_jab-hostvar /var 4 GB LVM xfs R...

I am using the srpm from http://xenbits.xensource.com/kernels/rhel3x/kernel-2.4.21-47.0.1.EL.xs0.3.5. 15.src.rpm (I get the same issue using the binary RPM) the dom0 is running 3.0.3_0 Upon booting the DomU, (the DomU has been passed phy:/dev/sda6, which has been partitioned using qemu) I get the following ioctl errors. ioctl 0000126c not supported by XL blkif ioctl 0000126c not supported

...and not anywhere else?). Brian also confirms that having the binary on one logical partition and the data on another should not be the problem as his wife's system is set up this way. I'm left with a couple of questions: 1) does R have any way of knowing how large the hard drive is (unpartitioned). The "g" partition lies out in the region beyond 80 GB, which is the upper limit for some programs and BIOS revisions - obviously my BIOS supports this. 2) does anyone have any experience with running R under Windows XP on a 2.2 GHz P4? (This should hardly be an issue, but I'...

Being resilvered 444.00 GB 168.21 GB 158.73 GB Just wondering if anyone has any rough guesstimate of how long this will take? It''s 3x1200JB ata drives and one Seagate SATA drive. The SATA drive is the one that was replaced. Any idea how long this will take? As in 5 hours? 2 days? I don''t see any way to get a status update on where it''s at in the reslivering

...ay be in the partition in which it is installed. So I thought, sectors 6-9 should be safe. If I can be reasonably assured that Linux (i.e. LILO), and Windows dont use more than the first 4 sectors on track 0, I will be happy. Since I am doing the partitioning, I can ensure that track 0 is "unpartitioned space", so officially only the MBR lives there. >> The process of installing OSes (especially multiple OSes), require one >> to boot in some particular order, e.g. Boot into DOS off the CD, and >> then off the hard disk,....

...ually setup a base partition structure using GParted that allowed the install to complete using the format below. sda (3TB) sda1 /boot fat32 500MB sda2 /boot/efi fat32 500MB sdb (3TB) sdb1 /boot fat32 500MB sdb2 /boot/efi fat32 500MB The remaining space was left unpartitioned in GParted, which was then prepared as LVM Raid1 in the CentOS installer. The installer also put the /boot and /boot/efi files on sda1 and sda2. Then I would have to manually copy them over to sdb1 and sdb2 if I wanted to be able to boot from drive sdb if drive sda failed. I am not sure that...

...don't follow your logic here. is_disk_image is trying to determine whether or not the device (be it a virtual device or otherwise) contains a partition table or not. A device with a partition table is a "disk image" as in a "full disk image", as opposed to a device which is unpartitioned and could be used via the "per partition block device" thing in the block driver. It seems that your block device does include the DOS MBR/partition table indicator (the 0x55aa signature at the end of the first sector) and therefore is considered to be a disk image. But perhaps it doesn&...

..., the underlying PV is. Also, it's not absolutely necessary to partition the drive at all if you have no need for unencrypted space on this new drive. Since I use drives on multiple platforms, I always partition so that other OS's recognize the drive space is spoken for instead of appearing unpartitioned and hence blank. Linux via libblkid always looks at disk contents whether partitioned or not so if this is a Linux only drive you don't have to partition it. 1. Use cryptsetup to create a LUKS volume on the whole disk or a partition thereof. For the exact command, you can cheat by doing 'g...
