similar to: Setting max limits in /etc/security/limits.conf

We have Xeon IA32 dual-processor servers running Centos 3.5 in an HPC batch-only compute grid configuration . We have yum update operating automatically with default updates being applied weekly. Because of the workload pattern of long-runing jobs, the servers tend to stay up without a reboot for very long periods. Recently, yum installed an updated kernel 2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp; when we got

We operate a cluster of Sun Xeon IA32 servers with Centos 3.5. Nodes are installed via a host-specific kickstart script which is generated for each node from a master template. Thus all kickstart scripts are clones of the master, edited for hostname, IP address etc only. The CENTOS 3.5 ISO images are exported from a server & that remote NFS mount is also configured in the master template.

Hello centos-users, in CentOS 6.1 is /etc/security/limits.conf the best place to change the number of max user processes for a daemon process? (I'm asking because the ".../security/..." part of the path sounds a bit strange) Thank you Alex

We operate a samba('18p10) server accessed by WIN3.11, 9x & NT4 clients, security=share. Uptil now, the NT clients have been pre service pack 3 & therefore sent cleartext passwords. Post-SP3 we need to enable encrypted passwords for the NT clients whilst preserving cleartext for the rest. For various (political) reasons, we cant' get the clients to use the registry hack to

Hi All I'm analysing growth rates using a gompertz (logistic) curve and am attempting to fit parameters for all of my study birds using nlsList. I've been looking for an option in nlsList to set min and max limits for parameter values during estimation, although I have failed to find any under 'control'. Other users seem to have reported that using control in the port algorithm

My hardware is Sun V65x servers, (6GB RAM/2xXeon3GHZ/36GB SCSI disk). I have NFS repositories of Centos 3.1, Centos 3.4, Centos 4 & RedHat 9.0 ISO distros set up. I use boot floppies for each o/s with the same kickstart file which is of course altered to point at the desired distro. With Centos 4 I have to use a boot CDROM, of course, rather than floppy disk. I wish to set up servers with

Dear List, I neeed a grouped list with two sort of categorical data.

I can install R with sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install r-base this is not my problem, and indeed, not my question. my question was how could I share the resulting R installation over NFS? Do I have to export every location where apt-get installs a component or can I force apt-get to place the installation in a certain location? On 8 November 2017 at 17:37, Ista Zahn <istazahn at

We have run CENTOS 3.x on a large number of machines used for technical computations, both 32/64-bit servers and 32-bit dual-boot desktops, with no issues whatsoever over a long period of time. We have since upgraded the servers to CENTOS 4.4 but a small number of dual-boot desktops which have been created recently using CENTOS 4.4/XP have very rapidly started to exhibit this symptom: The

Dear R-users, is there any object-type or routine/function in R which can handle unequally spaced time-series data? I know that there is the library OSWALD for S-Plus, which is able to do so, but I was not successful in running it under R. Does anyone can help? Thank's in advance!

What would be the effect of changing the password field in "/etc/passwd" from "x" to "*"? I noticed I have an "/etc/passwd.rpmnew" file which changes the password of many service accounts from "x" to "*". I am wondering if I should merge those changes into my "/etc/passwd" file. -- Matt Seitz Manager, File System

hi all, i want to share an R installation from a master node to several compute nodes via NFS. all nodes run ubuntu 16.04. I tried building R from source but hit a wall several times because of missing dependencies. So I am looking for something that uses the usual apt-get install proceedure, but would place the installation in the non-standard location. For context, right now I would have to

Hello, I run CentOS 5.6 on a Dell PowerEdge R815 with 256 GB of RAM. We use Sun Grid Engine to schedule jobs on this node. I want to limit the memory usage about 150 GB per process. So i use the /etc/security/limits.conf configuration file. I test this configuration with some tools with a lower GB limit (about 2 or 4 GB), and it works ! But, at least one process (oases - a bioinformatics

I have Dovecot 1.0 running on a SLES 10 mail server using postfix 2.2 and amvisd-maia. The mailboxes are stored in Maildir format with all the domains and users stored in a mySQL database. I would like to implement quotas for the system and have looked at the VDA patch for postfix and/or quotas within Dovecot. Any advantages to either? From what I can see from a couple of searches, Dovecot

Why can't non-uid 0 users have more than 1024 file descriptors when logging in via ssh? I'm trying to allow a user to have a hard limit of 8192 file descriptors(system defaults to 1024) via the following setting in /etc/security/limits.conf: jdoe hard nofile 8192 But when jdoe logs in via ssh and does 'ulimit -Hn' he gets '1024' as a response. If he tries to

Hi, everyone, I tried to use "spectrum()" or "spec.pgram()" to get a periodogram of a time series but they didn't work. Even the examples given in the help file didn't work (all with the same error message, below). And the 'ts'ibrary was loaded with "library(ts)" or "library("ts"). I also tried library(tseries) but got the same problem.
