Hi, Do you have any recommendation which malware scanner I can use in a proxy/gateway? Thank you. Fajar.

Hello all, I have just configured a 64-bit CentOS 5.5 machine to support an XFS filesystem as specified in the subject line. The filesystem will be used to store an extremely large number of files (in the tens of millions). Due to its extremely large size, would there be any non-standard XFS build/configuration options I should consider? Thanks. Boris. -------------- next part -------------- An

Is there a way to update a CentOS 5.4 server to 5.6 (but not 5.7)? "yum update" takes me all the way up to 5.7. Best, -at

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Heyho guys, I'm running since years glusterfs in a small environment without big problems. Now I'm going to use glusterFS for a bigger cluster but I've some questions :) Environment: * 4 Servers * 20 x 2TB HDD, each * Raidcontroller * Raid 10 * 4x bricks => Replicated, Distributed volume * Gluster 3.4 1) I'm asking me, if I can

Hi All, I am about to embark on a project that deals with allowing information archival, over time and seeing change over time as well. I can explain it a lot better, but I would certainly talk your ear off. I really don't have a lot of money to throw at the initial concept, but I have some. This device will host all of the operations for the first few months until I can afford to build a

Hi, over time the requirements and possibilities regarding filesystems changed for our users. currently I'm faced with the question: What might be a good way to provide one big filesystem for a few users which could also be enlarged; backuping the data is not the question. Big in that context is up to couple of 100 TB may be. O.K. I could install one hardware raid with e.g. N big drives

Hi, I am trying to create a 10 drive raid6 array. OS is Centos 5.3 (64 Bit) All 10 drives are 2T in size. device sd{a,b,c,d,e,f} are on my motherboard device sd{i,j,k,l} are on a pci express areca card (relevant lspci info below) #lspci 06:0e.0 RAID bus controller: Areca Technology Corp. ARC-1210 4-Port PCI-Express to SATA RAID Controller The controller is set to JBOD the drives. All

Hi all, We are building a new system which is going to use ext3 FS. We would like to know more about the behavior of ext3 in the case of failure. But before I procede, I would like to share more information about our future system. * Our application always does an fsync on files * When symbolic links (more specifically fast symlink) are created, the host directory is also fsync'ed. * Our

I'm setting up this huge RAID 6 box. I've always thought of hot spares, but I'm reading things that are comparing RAID 5 with a hot spare to RAID 6, implying that the latter doesn't need one. I *certainly* have enough drives to spare in this RAID box: 42 of 'em, so two questions: should I assign one or more hot spares, and, if so, how many? mark

We're looking at getting an HBR (that's a technical term, honkin' big RAID). What I'm considering is, rather than chopping it up into 14TB or 16TB filesystems, of using xfs for really big filesystems. The question that's come up is: what's the state of xfs on CentOS6? I've seen a number of older threads seeing problems with it - has that mostly been resolved? How does

Hi, I just received a new server (HP DL180G5) with 12x 1TB HDs and I bumped into fdisks 2TB limits... Since this is an entry level server, I can't use the classic HP bootable utilities to create smaller volumes et can only create a big RAID6. I found out that: using parted, labelling it gpt and creating the partitions would do the trick. But, what about grub? I read that it does not support

If you use any NAS (or a SAN) devices, what do you use? And I'm referring more to larger scale network storage than your home PC or home theater system. We've had very good experiences with our NetGear ReadyNAS devices but I'm in the market for something new. The NetGear's aren't the cheapest ones around but they do what it says on the box. My only real gripe with them is the

I''m planning on setting up an NFS server for our ESXi hosts and plan on using a virtualized Solaris or Nexenta host to serve ZFS over NFS. The storage I have available is provided by Equallogic boxes over 10Gbe iSCSI. I am trying to figure out the best way to provide both performance and resiliency given the Equallogic provides the redundancy. Since I am hoping to provide a 2TB

Maybe someone can share that script with me? Full problem i''m trying to investigate - my S10u7 get I\O error when accessing LUN on EMC cx480, but only if LUN created on raid6 raid group. When I create one on raid5 or raid10 everything goes fine. -- ____________ Voropaev Pavel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

There are significant components of the upstream 5.6 release which are stuck behind the CentOS 5.6 release process, but are now incorporated in EPEL 5 components. In particular, the "php53" package is now necessary for the "drupal6" EPEL components, due to the long out of date PHP 5.1 in the default upstream vendor's codebase. I see that some of these components are

Dear List People: I am doing some comparisons of different fs's and need to know where ext3 stands in terms of 64 bit addressing. XFS and JFS claim to be full 64 bit systems (though are there not still kernel limitations that would, for the time being, reduce the ability to use a full 64 bits?), what about ext3??

This may be a coincidence or not, but I''m building a new XEN system for myself for work purposes. I support several different versions of a software that cannot be installed at the same time, so I decided I wanted to setup a XEN domU for each. I had 5 spare 500GB drives so I put them in my system and partitioned them so I have a RAID1 boot, a RAID5 root and a RAID5 images. I got

Hi All. I have a CentOS server: CentOS 5.6 x86_64 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5.centos.plus e4fsprogs-1.41.12-2.el5.x86_64 which has a 11TB ext4 filesystem. I have problems with running fsck on it and would like to change the filesystem because I do not like the possibility of running long fsck on it, it's a production machine. Also I have some problems with running fsck (not enough RAM, problem with
