greetings, for those of you in the know, may i have some assistance in helping to make better decisions in purchasing more used server toys to install CentOS on please? :-) in the Compaq Proliant Rackmount DL380 line, the one that looks like the older 1850R is called a G1 meaning Generation 1 right? and then the DL380 G2 is a redesign that is gray and just has 6 drive bays up front correct?

greetings does the list at this url cover *all* options or are there some hidden or newer ones by chance? http://www.centos.org/docs/4/html/rhel-ig-x8664-multi-en-4/ap-bootopts.html i am playing with CentOS 4 on some Compaq dual PIII hardware.

Hi to all out there using HP DL380 G4 servers, i found a way to get the Digium TE410P with older firmware running on a HP-Compaq DL380 G4 Server! Here's the step-by-step description: 1. download the latest BIOS (in my case it was 4.04 from date: 06/02/2005) for the HP-Compaq DL380 G4 using the "Systems ROMPaq Firmware Upgrade Diskette for HP ProLiant DL480 G4 (P51) Servers" Link:

Was there any resolution on this I also have a TE410P in an box with an Intel E7501 chipset? -Vickers -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Re: TE410P card in an HP-Compaq DL380 G4 server Date: Tue, 8 Feb 2005 11:13:24 +1030 From: Peter Childs <peter.childs@nec.com.au> Reply-To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion

greetings would someone please point me to an excellent server exercising, stressing, and/or testing program that will run on centos 4? i want one that will not out and out destroy a machine so to speak... ...meaning testing is one thing, yet pounding a box in the hard drive department over and above the cause or unnecessarily does not appeal to me. fyi the box i want to test/stress this time

Hi, Has anyone had success using a TE410P card in an HP-Compaq DL380 G4 server? For me the card is detected fine, but the system just never sees an interrupt from the card. I've tried everything I can think of. The card definitely works. Its Fedora Core, but we also tried a stock 2.6.10 kernel. We tried with and without Hyperthreading, with "noapic", we disabled all the

Hi, all: I can't make my HP DL380 G2 servers to boot off local disk by using "default local" line in my PXE boot menu. For fully automated server setups, I have configured all my DL380 servers to always do PXE boot. By manipulating the default boot option in boot menu, I can control a server whether to install a new OS via kickstart or just boot off local disk. This scheme works

On a Compaq DL360 G1 w/ dual PIII 1.27's I installed Centos 5 minimal and then a yum update When I do a "uname -a" I get this Linux tstsrvr.abbacomm.net 2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 #1 SMP Mon Apr 30 19:55:44 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux When I do a rpm -qa | grep kern* I get this kernel-devel-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 kernel-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 kernel-headers-2.6.18-8.1.3.el5 It is interesting

Greetings, Can anyone relate experience(s) installing CentOS on Compaq rack mount servers units please? Easy no problem, easy some issues, or ghastly do not do it under any circumstances... ;) Basically, I'm looking at some used/refurb dual PIII units and will run RAID on Compaq built in SCSI or is it easy to pop in some 3ware SATA in them? Let me know in terms of CentOS 3 and/or 4 please.

greetings, as most know i have some older dual processor Compaq playtoys that i am deploying CentOS 4 on and doing some real world'ish simulation of failure and regular server environment testing. i have searched www on some things to no avail so off to the experts for some guideance please? case of: a dual Pentium 3 processor 1850R with a smart array 221 controller and quantity (4) 18 Gig

Hi All I will need to install CentOS 5.3 on HP DL380 R05 server with RAID-1 required. I am a newbie to CentOS / HP servers, need your help: - Does CentOS 5.3 work smoothly with HP DL380 server especially recognizing SAS disks and hardware RAID-1 features? From you experience, do you have to use HP Storage Drivers provided for RedHat Enterprise Linux 5? - How is HP

Hello Everyone, I recently installed CentOS 5.5 x86_64 on a brand new ProLiant DL380 G7. I have identical OS software running reock-solid on two other DL380 ProLiant servers, but they are G6 models, not G7. On the G7, the installation went perfectly and the machine ran great for about 2 weeks, when it just seemed to "stop". The system stopped responding on the network, and there was

Hi. I am trying to boot Xen 2.0.5 on an HP DL380 G3. It won''t. The box has an "HP Smart Array 5i" that when running normal Linux is handled by the CCISS driver. I suspect that this is what is not supported in the stock Xen kernel. Am I correct that I need to build a kernel from source ? According to http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2004-11/msg00709.html there

Hello List, i downloaded centos6 x86_64. With DVD-iso1 i made a booteable usb-stick (universal usb installer 1.8.5.7). When i boot my HP ProLiant DL380 G4 from the stick, the CentOS boot screen comes up and and the message "Automatic boot in xx seconds..." appears. * When i do not hit any key, the seconds are counted to zero an then it starts again at 10 seconds - again and again. *

The HP DL380 G5 (like many rack servers) has no AMP Mate-n-Lok connector available to attach to a card that needs more power than the PCI bus can provide, like the TDM400P when FXS modules are used. HP has confirmed that there is no part they sell to give you such a connector, and Digium says their business edition folks got it to work, but only by doing nasty warranty-voiding things to the

Hi, We are running FC5 test1 on some HP DL380 G4 servers with the stock xen and xen kernels supplied in FC5 release. We have 2 servers, one has 6GB of RAM the other 4GB. Both machines crash (lock up) on boot, I would have hoped to see 4GB of RAM and functional Xen in either case. Last message I see is related to PCI devices, I can try to capture the exact point of crash if it''s

Good afternoon everyone, I''m trying to compile the xen 2.6.32.x pv_ops kernel on centos 5.5 with i386 quad core xeon system (HP DL380 G3). Having some issues during the kernel compile one of which related to intel agp so I just removed it from .config and didn''t come across it again. This error here has got me stumped though: drivers/built-in.o: In function
