similar to: adding SAN "diskspace" to CentOS system residing on VMware

Hello listmates, I have encountered a rather peculiar situation. We have a Centos 6 VM (64 bit) running on a VMware vSphere 5.5 server. It was running just fine until one day I decided to reboot it and it just would not boot up. Effectively, dracut failed to initialize the LVM, much like under the scenario described here:

Yes, you can: whenever you are unable to make a decent backup at least once a week, your diskspace must be considered to big.

Hi, I do a tgz-backup some maildir-folders with n*1000 off files and a lot of GB in storage. The backuped maildirs are removed after the tar. My assumption was, that the free diskspace should be bigger after that, but from what I get with df, it looks like I'm loosing space. Currently the tgz is saved on the same disk/mountpoint. Any hint, why removing the maildirs dont free diskspace as

I have Postfix/Dovecot with virtual domains, same setup unaltered since server was set up quite a while ago last month, added a new virtual domain, 'just like before'. but, today noticed this in the queue/log 'overdrawn his diskspace quota'[1]: user's Maildir cur has like 48,762,696 bytes (lot less than other users) tried some searches, found similar probs, but, no

Hi! as far as I understood from "xml format for openvz driver" thread available at [1] it should be possible to specify via libvirt disk size and disk inodes for openvz VM.But the following device section in VM xml description doesn't set disksize and diskinodes properly (it looks like those parameters are taken from default OpenVZ config and not as they are specified in

Hi list, Saw that there''s a patch for xenserver 5.6fp1 which should fix this: http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX129267 Anybody know if/when this will happen on XCP?

One of the build options for a laptop I'm looking at buying is DVD vs Blu-Ray. I've never used Blue-ray before, so is there some compelling reason, as a Linux guy, to want to get Blu-ray?

Trying to update a second CentOS box, I'm getting this error repeatedly: [Errno 4] Socket Error: timed out I'm getting this on every mirror and have gone through the list of mirrors more than a dozen times. Oddly, the RPMs I'm trying to upgrade I upgraded just yesterday without a problem on another machine on the same LAN with no problems whatsoever. I can ping mirrors fine. There

Hi all, Please excuse the many posts. Wondering if any one can help me with the the setup. I have 2x2TBdisks. I would like to mirror them. I would like to create two LVMs so that I can snap shot from one to the other. During Centos 6 install, how would I go about this as its confusing? So far I am here; 1) Created the following raid devices; md0 500MB (use it for /boot) md1 4000MB (use it

Though I've worked with enterprise systems, I'm not familiar with FOOS backup software. Which of those recommended would allow me to backup a system while users are active on it? If it matters the system uses LVM. I'd also like to be able to avoid needing the network if possible. That is, I'd plug in a disk into a USB port and backup the system onto that... again, while

I'm having some difficulty finding a method to shrink my /home to expand my /.? They both correspond to LVMs.? It is my understanding that one cannot shrink a xfs filesystem.? One must back it up (xfsdump), remove (lvremove) redefine it and then restore it back (xfsrestore). Okay, I'm running into a problem where /home? needs to be "unused".? If tried going in to

Hello all, I''ve been searching through the archives and the internet for a while now, and can''t seem to find anything that helps me out. I hope you don''t my posting this to both xen-users and linux-lvm simultaneously, but i figured it''d help keep the solution in one place... even though it''ll be the same across two places... Anyways: My setup is this:
