similar to: GFS version compatibility

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

Give a specific symptom. This was brought to my attention because one program was killed by the kernel to free memory and another program failed because it was unable to allocate

I have a CentOS 7 server that is running out of memory and I can't figure out why. Running "free -h" gives me this: ????????????? total??????? used??????? free????? shared? buff/cache?? available Mem:?????????? 3.4G??????? 2.4G??????? 123M??????? 5.9M??????? 928M??????? 626M Swap:????????? 1.9G??????? 294M??????? 1.6G The problem is that I can't find 2.4G of usage.?

Does anyone know of a cheap temperature sensor that will work with Linux? I don't need a fancy monitoring appliance, I just want a simple sensor that I can connect to one of my monitoring servers to let me know if the server room is getting hot. -- Bowie

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?

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:
