Issue: Vista reads slowly from a samba server. This appears to pop up periodically here and elsewhere. My samba.conf file has: [homes] ... vfs objects = readahead As suggested elsewhere. Writes are approximately 17-18MB/s which is acceptable. Reads are in the 8MB/s range which is appalingly slow. Using linux smbclient and windows XP clients I can read at 25+MB/s. I've enabled vfs

Is anyone else having major I/O peaks due to logrotate or other jobs running simultaneously across multiple guests. I have one KVM server running Centos 5.4 with local disk that is seriously suffering as most of the guests rotate their syslog at the same time. Looking at the KVM server I'm seeing 11:00:01 PM CPU %user %nice %system %iowait %steal %idle 03:40:01 AM

I'm going to guess that there are no IDE drives that have 4096 byte physical sectors, but it's worth confirming you don't have such a drive because the current partition scheme you've posted would be sub-optimal if it does have 4096

Apologies if you get this twice - the first one didn't seem to make it... Hi Guys, I have just replaced a faulty Max...woah, wait...this one's a Seagate... IDE hard disk but I cannot remake the software raid pair. The currently running disk is hda and I am trying to add back hdg - both are master drives on separate controllers. I have run fdisk on hdg and created the same partition

Hi, I'm getting horrible performance on my samba server, and I am unsure of the cause after reading, benchmarking, and tuning. My server is a K6-500 with 43MB of RAM, standard x86 hardware. The OS is Slackware 10.0 w/ 2.6.7 kernel I've had similar problems with the 2.4.26 kernel. I use samba version 3.0.5. I've listed my partitions below, as well as the drive models. I have a

Hello, My machine is running Software RAID 5 on /dev/hde1, /dev/hdg1,/dev/hdi1.

Hi, I have a EPIA mini-itx board that I have been running Fedora 4 on. I want to install CentOS 4.4 on it since FC4 is no longer supported. The install goes fine but when I reboot the machine after the install I get errors like the following: hda:<4>hda: dma_timer_Expiry : dma status == 0x21 There are other errors about not being able to access the disk and eventually the kernel panics.

I''ve been following unstable day to day with mercurial but I''m still having a problem with my HVM testing. I using the i686 Centos + Bluecurve isntaller and I get the following error in the guest during disk formatting: <4>hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x21 <4>hda: DMA timeout error <4>hda: dma timeout error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete

We have an old 3.x server whose hd is dying (kernel: hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x61) and accessing certain files just crashes the system with a reboot. We have moved as many files to a nfs server as we could so simply. The system has been heavily modified (all using rpms) from baseline. What is the most practical method to replace the hard drive? -Jason Pyeron

Have 4 harddrives hde,hdg etc all of these drives are mounted in samba. When i copy file from one drive to another i notice that server sends the file to my computer and then back to itself (into the right place). The file will be copied but doing so it will eat half of my network bandwith. Is it possible to aviod this? Best Regards Patrick Betfjord
