I've got a fresh RHEL AS 4-U2 installation on a Dell PE2850 server. I downloaded and installed the latest RPMs: ocfs2-2.6.9-22.ELsmp-1.0.7-1.i686.rpm ocfs2-tools-1.0.2-1.i386.rpm ocfs2console-1.0.2-1.i386.rpm I was able to start the console, but when I try to run cluster->configure_nodes, I get the following error message: Could not start cluster stack. This must be resolved before any

Hi, I am not very experienced with SELinux and I have a problem which I can't track down. Any help would be really appreciated. I have an 'install everything' Centos 4.2 system which I am using as a workstation. Before anyone tells me off for installing everything, I have done this in order to get used to CentOS before using it on live servers. Anyway when I log into X (gnome, gdm)

Hi CentOS4.2 - Is it possible to have an older version of gcc as well as the one that ships with this OS? I need to compile aspseek to run on this distro but it seems to only like older gcc's any ideas?

Currently we have RH7.3 with compiler gcc 2.96.x My mission, should I choose to accept it, involves moving our embedded application to CentOS 4.1 with gcc 3.x Problem is that about 1/2 million lines of code that gcc 2.96 accepts gives fatal fits to the gcc 3.x compiler from CentOS 4.1 I don't know how many fatal fits, as some disguise others etc. "Can't find register to

After reading through the various SELinux threads, I really became quite perturbed. I mean, really quite perturbed. As an IT Director (and the entire IT department, currently), if I were hiring a sysadmin I know for a fact that someone whose first response to a question on why something doesn't work is 'turn it off' would not get a job here. Neither would a sysadmin with as much

Hi all I would like to install the minimal level of Centos, with yum & selinux on my servers during the basic install from CD with Anaconda and then use yum to install whatever application is major on that server, so that yum installs its dependencies only, thus keeping to the target of installing only what is needed on a server. Please advise pros/cons of this approach and how to do it. I

I can't choose LILO as boot loader anymore in the install process? And what is the advantages in GRUP vs. LILO that are so great that LILO has been deleted all together? One big disadvantages when forced to use GRUB is that it is a hassle to make the disks in a RAID1 bootable. https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2005-March/msg05935.html and RAID1 seems pretty useless when it is the

After reading all the problems with the x86-64 update, I'm in a quandry as to update this machine or not. Nothing that I am aware of is broken, and at least everything I use works. This is NOT a production machine, but it does have some important software that needs to run twice daily, and I sure don't want to break things for that. If upgrade is not necessary, how do I go about

Hi. I've installed BackupPC 3.1.0 from Testing repository, to Cent OS 5.2 x86_64, and I am hitting an SE Linux denial - the httpd cannot talk to the BackupPC socket: type=AVC msg=audit(07/31/2008 17:18:53.623:410) : avc: denied { connectto } for pid=11767 comm=httpd path=/var/log/BackupPC/BackupPC.sock scontext=user_u:system_r:httpd_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0

Hello, I have: CentOS4.1 x86_64 directly-attached Infortrend 9TB array QLogic HBA seen as sdb GPT label created in parted I want one single 9TB ext3 partition. I am experiencing crazy behavior from mke2fs / mkfs.ext3 (tried both). If I create partitions in parted up to approx 4,100,000 MB in parted, mkfs.ext3 works great. It lists the right number of blocks and creates a filesystem that fills

What KVMs do you use? I personally like the ConnectPro.

List, I've got a process(s) that have been exiting on a signal 11, but not all the time. I suspect it's memory related, and I was wondering, is there any way to tell exactly how much memory a particular process has in use at the point it sigsev's ? I can't sit here and watch top or the system monitor, but thought maybe something might be saved somewhere after the fact.

greetings bryan, did you say that in your experience the /var partition should _not_ be on the extended partition table for "recovery" purposes? - rh
