similar to: Dell PERC H800 commandline RAID monitoring tools

I'm looking for suggestions as to a good general method of remote-logging services such as nginx or anything else which doesn't support syslog natively. I'm aware that there's an nginx patch, and we're evaluating this. It may be the way we fly. However there are other tools which may not have a patch for which remote logging would be useful. If there's a general soution

I'm looking for a capability similar to Debian/Ubuntu's pre/post up/down network commands capability. The problem: we've got a colo in which hosts talk directly to the hosting provider's router (through a bridging firewall) and hence our hosts MAC addresses are cached by the router. We should be able to solve this by pinging the router directly when bringing up the interface,

Hi!We''re trying to pinpoint our performance issues and we could use all the help to community can provide. We''re running the latest version of Nexenta on a pretty powerful machine (4x Xeon 7550, 256GB RAM, 12x 100GB Samsung SSDs for the cache, 50GB Samsung SSD for the ZIL, 10GbE on a dedicated switch, 11x pairs of 15K HDDs for the pool). We''re connecting a single Linux

Anyone have any experience with a R510 with the PERC H200/H700 controller with ZFS? My perception is that Dell doesn''t play well with OpenSolaris. Thanks, Geoff

Hi List; I just got a new server (my first **real** server). It's a dell 2900 : quad core XEON (with a spare slot for a 2nd quad core chip) 8G memory (expandable to 64G) 8 hot swap SATA HD slots onboard PERC6i RAID controller etc I initially setup the system / RAID as follows: 1) booted off the dell setup CD 2) walked through the RAID setup and formatted the drives 3) the setup bombed

I am having an issue with Megacli when adding or removing virtual disks. I will post a link to fpaste that has the issue shown. In brief whenever i add, or remove, a virtual disk via MegaCli the attempt succeeds and the adapter is configured but the OS remounts dm-0 in read only. dm-0 is my root lv. This issue does not happen if i boot into the default, non Xen, CentOS kernel. On stock

We've been wrestling with this for ... rather longer than I'd care to admit. Host / initiator systems are a number of real and virtualized CentOS 5.5 boxes. Storage arrays / targets are Dell MD3220i storage arrays. CentOS is not a Dell-supported configuration, and we've had little helpful advice from Dell. There's been some amount of FUD in that Dell don't seem to know what

Hi folks: At work, I have an R510, and R610 and an R710 - all with the H700 PERC controller. Based on experiments, it seems like there is no way to bypass the PERC controller - it seems like one can only access the individual disks if they are set up in RAID0 each. This brings me to ask some questions: a. Is it fine (in terms of an intelligent controller coming in the way of ZFS) to have the

we have several R900 servers with PERC 6/E card in it. Recently it we getting some message on /var/log/message say change to "write back" and change back to "write through". We figure out it is PERC 6/E card battery weak. My questions are: 1. some battery only use one year (some even shorter) and already this problem. 2. How come PERC 5/E does not have this issue? 3.

What did I say to make you treat me as an ultimate idiot!? ;-) All my comments, at least in my own reading, we about things you need to do to make sure when you hot unplug bad drive it is indeed failed

Happy Friday, List! I''m spec''ing out a Thumper-esque solution and having trouble finding my favorite Hitachi Ultrastar 2TB drives at a reasonable post-flood price. The Seagate Constellations seem pretty reasonable given the market circumstances but I don''t have any experience with them. Anybody using these in their ZFS systems and have you had good luck? Also, if

We have DELL R910 with H800 adapter in it. several MD1220 connect to H800. Since MD1220 have 24 hard disks in it. When I configured RAID10, there is a choice call 'single spanned virtual disk" (22 disks). Can anyone tell me how "single spanned virtual disk" work? Any document relate to it? Thanks.

Does anyone know what program can be used to query the RAID status from the OS for an on-board LSI SAS 2308-4i? On this page: http://docs.avagotech.com/docs/12351997 there is a curious note on the left that reads: "Integrated MegaRAID support available upon request" After one mostly fruitless round of chatting with LSI/Avago/Broadcom and one completely fruitless round of chatting

Running CentOS 6.7, on an older HP DL580 G5. We've got a Dell 12-bay RAID box plugged into a PERC H800 (aka LSI Liberator) that we put in the HP, and that works fine. We've got a new RAID (a JetStor), and are trying to plug it in. The layout is that the Dell RAID is dual-pathed DAS. Each PERC has two DAS ports. We've got the Dell RAID in the top port of each PERC. I *thought* I could

Hey, anyone using an LSI MegaRAID experienced "disappearing drives"...? We installed 6 new C6 servers, each with a Supermicro SMC2108 (LSI MegaRAID) controllers and 3 PX-128M5Pro SSDs ( RAID1 + hostswap). 2 weeks (and almost no activity on it, since not in production, apart from installation) later, megacli sees (based on the slot numbers): - on one server: only the 2nd disk of the RAID
