Hi all, Please pardon my newbie-ness on this issue....I've a / partition which is full (quite suddenly, actually) and I'm not sure how to fix this. I've searched for uneeded logs, etc in /var/log and /tmp to no avail. The system is CentOS 5.2 and is not connected to the internet, serves as a local LAN server running stock stuff...sendmail, dovecot, apache..nothing strange or

Hi, I have been getting the following error (logged in /var/log/xen/xend.log) when I try to migrate a VM from one particular host to the other (the reverse migration works fine). My system was working fine for a long time (i did several migrations in both the directions). I am using Xen-3.4.3 (installed from source code) with CentOS 5.4. I am using drbd to replicate the disks.

Hi Guys, I'm fairly new to Linux and I'm trying to un install a hard drive from my Centos 5.1 box running KDE. When I built the PC, I installed two 500 gig maxtors in the tower, then I installed Centos. Now I've decided that I want to remove the slave drive and use it as an external backup drive - I am mounting it into one of those external drive cases with a built in fan. When I

Booting from the CentOS 5.2 Installation DVD (or the first Installation CD), one can type "linux rescue" and then "chroot /mnt/sysimage" and have full root access to the OS on the HD. For future reference, I would like to know what I did wrong, the past couple of days, when trying to use the CentOS 5.2 i386 Live CD, for rescue. From a terminal, "su -" did not seem to

I am trying to mount this (my old hard drive) from my Centos 5 install as a USB drive so I can copy files over. I have made the change to max_luns so that I can have more than one drive on a USB drive. The first partition, /dev/sda1 mounts automatically as /boot_ The second partition, /dev/sda2 is the one I really want and it is an lvm partition. When I am booted from this drive (as the

Dear friends: Using Centos 5. I have two physical drives. During install, I made sure to check hdb as well as hda. Both were listed as partitions (which is correct). But my fstab file does not show hdb. How do I make sure that hdb has been formatted and is part of my file system. If hdb is not formatted, how do I format it, please. Sorry for the question. I am a newbie. d[sher at localhost

Background: This is a dual boot (Windows XP and CentOS 5.2 (32 bit) box. There were four (4) NTFS partitions. The C partition got full. I deleted the 4 NTFS partitions and did a clean install of Windows XP, into one (1) NTFS partition. I knew that I would need to install GRUB again and I did that, using the CentOS 5 Installation DVD.

Run: # top # vmstat 1 # iostat -x /dev/emcpowerb 1 The latter two you can save to a file. For top, just monitor cpu usage and see if any process is hogging all of it.

I have a degraded raid array (originally raid-10, now only two drives) that contains an LVM volume. I can see in the appended text that the Xen domains are there but I don't see how to mount them. No doubt this is just ignorance on my part but I wonder if anyone would care to direct me? I want to be able to retrieve dom-0 and one of the dom-Us to do data recovery, the others are of

Hi All, I could not locate the info & syntax to setup swap partition in domU. I''ve setup the fstab file like that after having created a LV for it but I don''t know how to instruct xen to use it:. I feel I have to somehow set it in the VM file but how ? Of course I''ve run the mkswap and tried swapon -a but I get the obvious message bellow as it cannot read real

When trying to do a yum update, I am told I need more space in /boot. When I check the contents of /boot (ls -l /boot), there are no files. If I do a df -h, there is no available space yet it shows that it has a lot of used space. The fstab shows the following: # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /

Hi. I'm currently trying to configure a kickstart script to do auto installs. We split up the partitions so that we have control on the mount security like setting no execute on the tmp portions etc .
