2TB limit, weird mounting issues on reboot
Greetings, I'm seeing some weird issues surrounding the 2 terabyte limit on my 3ware (9590SE, PCI Express model) raid controller. Currently, the raid array is 6 x 500GB disks for a total of around 2.3 terabytes formatted. Looking at the documentation on the 3ware site, the raid card can handle a single partition over 2TB, but it still looks like fdisk fails to create a primary partition over

expand physical volume
Hi. I added a disk to a hardware raid 5 array and now i want to expand the LVM physical volume. There are now 4 sas 146GB disks in the server. The virtual disk /dev/sdb from the raid controller has been resized successfully with the server management software osma.

Best way to extend pv partition for LVM
I've replaced disks in a hardware RAID 1 with larger disks and enlarged the array. Now I have to find a way to tell LVM about the extra space. It seems there are two ways: 1. delete partition with fdisk and recreate a larger one. This is obviously a bit tricky if you do not want to lose data, I haven't investigated further yet. 2. create another partition on the disk, pvcreate another

Disk partitions and LVM limits
Hi, I've got a DAS DELL MD1000 with a bunch of SATA drives in RAID 5 configuration with total space of 5.4TB. This box is attached to a CentOS5 system (kernel 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5). Any idea how to make this space usable? Is there a limit how big a partition can be? What is the work around? Is there a limit how big a file system ca be? I've tried to partition it but no matter how bug

plural to singular blunder
I just got this error: uninitialized constant PriceCurf After much head scratching I remembered the Rails plural to singular mapping rules. My table is price_curves, my object is PriceCurve ... whereas I am guessing Rails thinks the singular ought to br PriceCurf ?! I''m sure there is a simple way around this linguistic blunder that doesn''t involve the use of pigeon English.

Winbindd dies instantly
Hi, I'm trying to set up a Samba 4.1.16 file server for our (Samba 4) domain. But for some reason I can't seem to be able to get it to work. Even worse, I have run out of ideas on how to debug this. I've been tampering with this for quite some time now, but I've come to realize I can't figure this out on my own. Can someone give me some pointers on where to look in order

how to resize a partition of a disk define as a physical volume
How do you resize the partition without loosing data? gparted does not support LVM.

Semi-OT: Backing up maildir
We switched our mail server over from mbox to maildir a few months ago and couldn't be happier - the performance under normal load is incredible. However we now have a problem with backup.. Typically we would run tar on the mail server, sending its output to another server via ssh.. Like this: tar cfp - /home | gzip | ssh other.server (cd /backups && tar xfp -).. I have tried

what''s correct way of shrinking LVM based domU?
Hi all I want to shrink one of my LVM based domU''s, but don''t quite know how to do it. I have searched the Wiki & HOWTO''s, and they all show you how expand / enlarge a LVM based domU, but not shrinking it. So, I stopped (destroyed) the domU, and then resized it as follows: lvresize /dev/data/cpanel1 -L10GB (It was 100GB), but when I a started it up again, I

Setting up large (12.5 TB) filesystem howto?
Hi, I'm trying to set up an iscsi 12.5 TB storage for some data backup. Doing so, I had some difficulties to find the right tool, maybe it's also a question of the system settings... The server is a 32Bit CentOS 5.3 with the recent updates. Ths iscsi connection can be establised. fdisk and parted fail to create any information on the device or fail completely. using the lvm tools

R_LIBS difficulty ?
Hi, R people. I'm shy reporting this, as a bug in this area sounds very unlikely. Did I make my tests wrongly? I'm still flaky at all this. Let me dare nevertheless, who knows, just in case... Please don't kill me! :-) Not so long ago, I wrote to this list: > (For now, [the library code] works only for me when I do _not_ use `-l > MY/OWN/LIBDIR' at `R CMD INSTALL'

lmer, p-values and all that
Dear Help: I am trying to follow Professor Bates' recommendation, quoted by Professor Crawley in The R Book, p629, to determine whether I should model data using the 'plain old' lm function or the mixed model function lmer by using the syntax anova(lmModel,lmerModel). Apparently I've not understood the recommendation or the proper likelihood ratio test in question (or both) for I

[LLVMdev] Why Is This Illegal?
Can anyone tell me where my blunder is in the following program? llvm-as reports: llvm-as: testit.ll:11: Can't store 'opaque *' into space of type 'opaque *'! Which doesn't seem to make sense to me. What is it that is illegal about storing a pointer to opaque in a space that is of type pointer to opaque? Is it just that you can't store pointers to opaque? %path =

adding SAN "diskspace" to CentOS system residing on VMware
Hey, group, I've got a system installed on a VMware VM. The SAN administrator allocated me more disk space from the (EMC) SAN and I need ultimately to create another partition to mount on the filesystem. Two (initial) questions about this: What steps do I need to take prior to creating a new partition with fdisk? (The SAN space, BTW, is connected through VMware.) The OS is already

Problem resizing partition of nfs volume
Hi: I have an NFS volume that I'm trying to resize a partition on. Something about the fdisk process is corrupting something on the drive Before running fdisk, I can mount the volume find: $ mount /dev/sdo1 /home ... and the volume is mounted fine. And, $ e2fsck -f /dev/sdo1 /dev/sdo1: clean, ... But then I run fdisk to rewrite the partition table of this drive, to expand the /dev/sdo1

Upgrading to larger HD with LVM
What's the easiest way to transition to a larger HD when using LVM2? I'm running Centos 4.4. I'm going from a 20gb HD to a 40gb HD. I've already DD'd it to the 40gb HD. So now I have 20gb of unused space. Ideally, I'd like to make it one big physical space for the logical space instead of making another physical partition to expand the logical. Here is what I have now
