Hi, has anyone enabled using centos, the proliant functionality of "teaming" the two integrated network cards, to be seen as one by the network switch?

I've been taking a look at how RedHat (and CentOS) handles logrotate. According to the man page, logrotate is supposed to be fired by cron. But when I look at root's crontab $ sudo crontab lu root no crontab for root What exactly fires logrotate (and other scheduled events like "logwatch", which ends up in root's inbox)? === Al

I run a decent amount of 3ware hardware, all under centos-4. There seems to be some sort of fundamental disagreement between ext3 and 3ware's hardware RAID5 mode that trashes write performance. As a representative example, one current setup is 2 9550SX-12 boards in hardware RAID5 mode (256KB stripe size) with a software RAID0 stripe on top (also 256KB chunks). bonnie++ results look

I need a SCSI card to attach a tape library to my system. I am looking at the Adaptec 29320A-R. Can anyone confirm that this card will work with the stock CentOS 4 kernel? -- Bowie

I am planning to build a server based on the SuperMicro X7DBE+-O motherboard. This server will have two dual-core Xeon processors and a 3ware 9550SX raid card. Has anyone built a server based on this motherboard? Are there any issues with the smp/dual-core support in CentOS4 that might cause problems? I appreciate any input. I'm just looking to find out about any possible problems before

Back in the day (read: before the latest firefox update), I used to be able to ssh to a remote box, run 'firefox -local', and have that box fire up its own firefox session even if I was running firefox on the system from I which I sshed. Those days seem to be gone. No matter what I try, if I've got firefox running on my local desktop, the remote firefox command just fires off

We have a server with about 6x750Gb SATA drives setup on a hardware RAID controller. We created hardware RAID 5 on these 6x750GB HDDs. The effective size after RAID 5 implementation is 3.4TB. This server we want to use it as a data backup server. Here is the problem we are stuck with, when we use fdisk -l, we can see the drive specs and its size as 3.4TB. But when we want to create two different

I have a centos 4.2 32bit app that when installed on centos 4.2 64 bit box and try to run it I get "libxml2.so.2 not found". however if I "rpm -qa | grep libxml2" it shows up just fine. How can I get this app to run on the 64bit box (without recompiling yet). The recompiling will come someday... right now I just would like it to run. Thanks Jerry -------------- next part

hi, How can I open crontab with gedit any any other editor ? i want to edit my cron jobs with other editors beside vi.

The docs to installing cfengine refers to /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root That doesn't exist. Nor does /etc/crontab. Heck I remember that from the "old days", now there are lots of cron entries, in /etc but no crontab. Not installed by default. So, I'm hunting that one down. Nate, what did you wind up doing??

Hi, I have to setup a scheduled task on a server, and I just read through some crontab docs. Now I'm confused. It's not so much the syntax of the cron job to define (I got that), it's more... how do I get to define it? Use a text editor (vi or the likes) to edit /etc/crontab directly? Or create some empty file in /etc/cron.daily or /etc/cron.hourly or the likes and then edit it

Dear Expert, Is there any settings in rsync to run the command automatically in crontab? i've setup the crontab and create the ssh key to ignore the password prompt, but it seems like the rsync didn't works well. the crontab setting is like this: * */2 * * * /usr/bin/rsync -avzporg --stats root@10.1.1.1:/home/email/ /home/data-email/ if i run this manually, it works, im using redhat 8.0

Hi, I seem to have a problem with crontab. I am running CentOS 5.5. If I add my bakup scripts into crontab they take very long to run. If I run my scripts manually they run 100%. I have also tried vixiecron, same issue. Any ideas? Thanks Jenny -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
