similar to: Cannot re-make a software raid pair

Hello, My machine is running Software RAID 5 on /dev/hde1, /dev/hdg1,/dev/hdi1. I noticed on the log that suddenly we are getting messages such as : Oct 14 01:27:16 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance changed from 247 to 246 Oct 14 01:57:15 localhost smartd[4801]: Device: /dev/hde, SMART Prefailure Attribute: 8 Seek_Time_Performance

I am trying to upgrade my system from 500GB drives to 1TB. I was able to partition and sync the raid devices, but I cannot get the new drive to boot. This is an old system with only IDE ports. There is an added Highpoint raid card which is used only for the two extra IDE ports. I have upgraded it with a 1TB SATA drive and an IDE-SATA adapter. I did not have any problems with the system

Hello, I recently cloned an old install from one server chassis to another via rsync. The old setup only had one disk and the new one is set up with two disks in a softraid. I managed to solve the problem and thought I'd present it here to benefit others. attempting to add sda3 to md2 says: mdadm: hot add failed for /dev/sda3: Invalid argument dmesg says: md: could not bd_claim

I'm going to guess that there are no IDE drives that have 4096 byte physical sectors, but it's worth confirming you don't have such a drive because the current partition scheme you've posted would be sub-optimal if it does have 4096

Issue: Vista reads slowly from a samba server. This appears to pop up periodically here and elsewhere. My samba.conf file has: [homes] ... vfs objects = readahead As suggested elsewhere. Writes are approximately 17-18MB/s which is acceptable. Reads are in the 8MB/s range which is appalingly slow. Using linux smbclient and windows XP clients I can read at 25+MB/s. I've enabled vfs

Hi folks, Just a quick hello having installed CentOS on my first box - an Acer Altos G310 (P4 2.8GHz, 768MB RAM with 70GB + 300GB storage. The 300GB unit is a SATA disk which I hope to software (hardware!?) mirror - if I'm in for any major fun mirroring a SATA drive do let me know now - I think hardware mirroring is not an option (yet!?) but I haven't checked this out completely. This

Hi, As per the subject line - if I look up setting up chroot jails for SFTP over SSH2 I'm led to various Web sites and patches and also to a CentOS wiki page dated 2005, but what's the 'best' or 'correct' way to set this up for Centos 4.5 and 5? Thanks

Hi, I cannot seem to find a good answer for what I am doing wrong; I am simply trying to rsync a directory from one large disk partition to another disk, both ext2, on the same physical system by using the command: rsync --archive -v /etc /mnt/hdf/ I systematically get the following errors: # rsync --archive -v /etc /mnt/hdf/ building file list ... done etc/ etc/mtab etc/ntp/drift

Hi, I'm getting horrible performance on my samba server, and I am unsure of the cause after reading, benchmarking, and tuning. My server is a K6-500 with 43MB of RAM, standard x86 hardware. The OS is Slackware 10.0 w/ 2.6.7 kernel I've had similar problems with the 2.4.26 kernel. I use samba version 3.0.5. I've listed my partitions below, as well as the drive models. I have a

Today our server had seriuos problems, we had to reinitiate it and run fsck manually. Dou you think it's an ext3, kernel (vanilla 2.4.19) or hardware bug? The errors were (from syslog): -------------------------------- Oct 6 16:10:25 nou kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Oct 6 16:10:25 nou kernel: 72:02: rw=0, want=230266240, limit=4882432 Oct 6 16:10:25 nou kernel: attempt

Have 4 harddrives hde,hdg etc all of these drives are mounted in samba. When i copy file from one drive to another i notice that server sends the file to my computer and then back to itself (into the right place). The file will be copied but doing so it will eat half of my network bandwith. Is it possible to aviod this? Best Regards Patrick Betfjord

We have a server running Centos-3 with all latest updates. The server hosts 3 printers for us which are accessed by various Windows clients. About 3 months ago we noticed that, after a cups update, if you looked at the print queues in Windows they would show old jobs that had long been printed. After a further cups update this quirk went away but it's just come backs again - possibly after

So you know, I don't know too much about file systems. Here is what I did: I have two linux boxes. the first box had many hardrives in it, but needed to be used in other ways. So I took 4 harddrives out of it and placed it in the other Linux box. I thought it would be able to read these right away. (maybe this was my mistake?) I could mount all of the drives in there. three of my

Hi, I have read this thread and want to say that I have expirienced the same problem. Once, when I was loged in, one of my filesystems ( root filesystem :( ) became read-only with the same symptoms. But results was more tragic. Almost in each directory avg. 10% of files had incorrect attributes, owner, links, etc. But filenames was correct. So, I was obliged to re-create root filesystem :(

Hi Andre, ext3 folk, It would be really great if you could help me out here, I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue, a driver issue, an ext3 issue or some combination of them... I have a KT133A motherboard with an on-board promise controller, and an ACARD ATP865 in a PCI slot. I'm running 2.4.19-ac4 with the lvm 1.0.5 patches. The acard has two drives, hde and hdg attached to it, both
