similar to: yum updates

My apologies if this is a stupid question, but I'm not familiar with how kernel updates and kernel modules interact. I see that there are some kernel updates available via yum: ============================================================================ = Package Arch Version Repository Size

Hi all, I was informed[1] that gfs & rhcs packages are in the works but that there are some problems with the code. What are these problems? Can we do anything to help test / solve them?

I did a yum install of modules from the CentOS-csgfs repository (GFS-kernel, cman-kernel, etc). Modprobe does not find the modules. Upon investigation, I found that modprobe is looking in: /lib/modules/2.6.9-22.0.1.ELsmp/ while the package files were installed to: /lib/modules/2.6.9-22.0.1.EL/ Can I tell modprobe to use those modules somehow? Are modules for the smp kernel available? Or do I

Now that the csgfs repo has been updated to support the new kernel, I'm looking at doing updates again. I just want to do it without breaking things (if possible). I can handle doing a bit of trial and error, but I figure that if you guys can point out any obvious pitfalls, that can save me quite a bit of time. I'm looking at doing the following install/update:

I am considering building a pair of storage servers that will be using CentOS and GFS to share the storage from a Coraid (SATA+Raid) EtherDrive shelf. Has anyone else tried such a setup? Is GFS stable enough to use in a production environment? There is a build of GFS 6.1 at http://rpm.karan.org/el4/csgfs/. Has anyone used this? Is it stable? Will I run into any problems if I use CentOS 3.5

This is an x86_64 system that I just updated from 4.2 to 4.3 (including the csgfs stuff). When I watch the bootup on the console, I see an error: lvm.static: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/liblvm2clusterlock.so: undefined symbol: lvm_snprintf This error comes immediately after the "Activating VGs" line, so it appears to be triggered by the vgchange command in the clvmd startup

I just took a brand new CentOS 4.2 x86_64 install, updated all of the base packages with yum, and then added the csgfs repo and attempted to install those packages. When I do the installation, I have a problem with one package: # yum install perl-Net-Telnet [ snip ] ============================================================================ = Package

I have used the package-cleanup utility to remove old kernel packages, but I noticed that it only removes the 'kernel' and 'kernel-devel' packages. It does not touch 'kernel-smp', 'kernel-hugemem', etc. What is the recommended method of cleaning up these other kernel packages? Should I just 'yum remove' the ones I don't need? Some of my servers have a

Anybody here know when there is going to be an update for the cluster packages for the 2.6.9-55.0.2 kernel that was released in June? The packages available from the repo are compiled against 2.6.8-55. I want to update my GFS cluster to CentOS 4.5, but I don't want to do such a major upgrade and leave out the kernel packages. -- Bowie

What's the correct syntax for something like the following: yum check-update --disablerepo=dag ivazquez Extras Misc this runs "dead" and doesn't do a check-update. Use kommas? Something else? man just tells to use glob exp, but what about multiple repo's? Kai -- Kai Sch?tzl, Berlin, Germany Get your web at Conactive Internet Services: http://www.conactive.com

I am trying to install the Cluster RPMS from rpm.karan.org. But since I have updated my kernel with yum, I have the wrong kernel for a couple of the packages. # rpm -i --test cman-kernel-smp-2.6.9-36.0.i686.rpm error: Failed dependencies: /lib/modules/2.6.9-11.ELsmp is needed by cman-kernel-smp-2.6.9-36.0.i686 kernel-smp = 2.6.9-11.EL is needed by cman-kernel-smp-2.6.9-36.0.i686

Is there any update on the csgfs packages for CentOS 4? The current rpms are 10 months old unless I'm looking at the wrong mirror. -- Bowie

I've got an odd problem. My server will not shutdown normally because the AoE driver is not being shut down properly. While investigating the problem, I found that the aoe script is apparently not being called for shutdown. I have been able to duplicate this with a brand new test script. My test script is just a simple file that echos back the start or stop command: #!/bin/bash #

I haven't run any updates on my systems recently, but now I'm trying to get them up to date again. When I run a yum update, I get this error: Error: Missing Dependency: initscripts >= 7.93.26.EL-1 is needed by package httpd I did a Google search, but I didn't find anything relating directly to CentOS or RHEL and there was no fix suggested. If it makes a difference, I am running

Hi, I'm using CentOS 4.3 on all my PC's, and I'm very happy with it. Everything *just* works. I want to give DVD::RIP 0.97.10 a try. I enabled rpmforge and kbs repos, but there's only 0.52.2 available, which has an annoying bug in it. So I installed the main dependency, transcode, via yum. Then I downloaded the (PERL) sources of DVD::RIP 0.97.10, ran configure (e. g. perl

I have a server that frequently hangs while rebooting. I see no errors, but during the boot process it stops at this stage: Initializing hardware... storage network audio The cursor sits just after the word "audio" and I have to do a hard reset to get out of it. This server has no audio capabilities, so I am thinking that I just need to disable the audio stuff so it doesn't

I am building a new system which will have a pair of dual-core Opterons and 16GB memory. Should I use kernel-smp or kernel-hugemem? I see that RH recommends the hugemem kernel if you have more than 16GB (and we may upgrade at some point, the MB supports 32GB). Any comments on this? The only difference that the descriptions show is the 4GB/4GB split with the hugemem kernel and I'm not quite

I have a backup spooling onto a DLT drive. Is there any tool that will let me monitor the data throughput on the device? -- Bowie
