We have a perculiar problem and wonder if anyone can shed some light or advice ? We have a variety of machines running SCO Unix 3 .2v4.2 with samba 1.9.16, we also have an NT 4.0 server, these are all sharing up various sections of their drives. There is a Red Hat Linux running using smbmount to mount all these drives onto a directory tree, the root of this tree is shared up using samba so raher

Can anyone offer any help with improving the following timings :- Using 3 identical PC's one a win 95 client, one an NT 4.0 Server and one a Linux (Redhat 5.0, Kernel 2.0.32) with Samba (1.9.17p4) I get the following results when copying a directory tree up/down, the tree consists of 183 files in 38 directories totalling 8.5Mb. Win95 -> NT 33secs NT -> Win95

Hello! Is it possible to make a tape attached to unix host visible to windows PCs via Misrosoft's protocol? Now our users should telnet to the unix station and use smbtar. They want to use backup utilities from Windows. Is it possible? Sincerely, Ilya Ovchinnikov ------------------------------------- Internet Service and Information ILO2-RIPE

Hello, I have a server with a tape. Of course my dom0 see it but I don''t want to manage backups from dom0 and want to do it with a guest. In that case I need to show the tape to the guest. I don''t know how to do it. Is there more than one way? Thanks for your help, nm _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com

I'm having trouble geting an Onstream DI30 tape drive to work on Redhat 7.2. The web site says kernel 2.4.x doesn't need a driver patch, but 2.2.x does. It shows how to install the patch,but doesn't say anything about getting it to work on 2.4.x, except that it works. I see it at bootup, but not when I try to use it.

OS: CentOS 5.0 x86. Hi, I have some old music tapes and a walkman, and want to move the music to mp3 format. So far I am thinking to use Audacity to record the music to wavs, and then do not know, somehow I will compress the wavs to mp3s as vbr 192 Kbps with something. Has anyone done this? What app did you use for recording the music from the tapes and what app did you use to make it mp3?

I have an Overland tape library connected, via SCSI card, to an out-of-box, full install of C5 install on an old PC. I have a script that uses tar to archive data to tape and mtx to change tapes. What I don't know, if possible, is to obtain the status of how much tape is left in the drive. If I get a write failure, I'd like to know if the tape is bad or has run out of space. I

Posting here in the hope that some one may have encountered problems with recovery from backups on LTO4 media and found a solution. Back ups on FujiFilm LTO4 media (800/1600). Archives created using tar -cf /dev/nst0. ?The tapes were fine when the archives were created (tested by extracting random sample files from them) but something went wrong in storage (no physical damage). Now a few LTO4

What do you guys recommend for backing up a small CentOS server in a business environment. It will have (3) 300gb drives in a raid 5 array but I don't anticipate more than about 25gb of data that needs to be backed up each night. I want a lot of backups with a rotation scheme that included daily, weekly, and monthly copies. I want the daily copies of the data kept until the next week, and

How does everyone feel about using Quantum LTO 3 and 4 tapes with Bacula for backing up both the VM's, Host, as well as from within the VM's. What are know good backup solutions? Can anyone name specific tape drives / software that is working. Lee -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hello, Andrew Trigdell's original rsync paper (actually thesis) discussed the idea of using rsync to make incremental tape backups based not on whole files but rather parts of files. Sadly, this functionality is not actually present in the rsync program. I'd like to explore adding this ability. There are basically three things that need to be done to enable efficient (partial-file)

This appears to be a pthreads problem, not scsi.

Hi Friends !!! I have one xen server (debian etch) already in production; there are samba, squid, 2 ldap servers , apache2, postgresql and others, 8 virtual machines at total in a hardware raid5. Now I need a backup system, and i will use bacula with a dell ultrium3 LTO. I would like to know if there are problems with i/o? How can I connect a DomU directly to /dev/st0 of Dom0

Hello! I'm having problems with udev /dev/tape/by-id/ symlinks.. it seems symlinks to tape drives are sometimes (randomly) missing after reboot. Server in question has IBM TS3200 tape library connected with 2 drives in it.. so /proc/scsi/scsi shows 3 devices: 2 tape drives, and 1 medium changer (tape library). So I should have 3 symlinks in /dev/tape/by-id/ directory.. 2 symlinks to tape

Can anyone give me some advice, we have just set up a linux file server and we want to offer up a samba share of a directory, however we want it to be accessible by everyone even those who do not have an entry in the passwd file, can someone tell me what I need to do to acheive this ? many thanks in advance.

A quick follow-up in case anyone else is trying to use IBM tape device within a KVM guest. I didn't get SCSI passthrough below working, but there were two alternatives recommended to me: (1) Use PCI passthrough to give the KVM guest dedicated access to the Fibre Channel HBA PCI card. PCI passthrough seems to be more solid. (2) Use ISCSI to share the tape devices and tape changer

I've taken you as far as I can go. ?Now you will have to experiment a bit for your use case. ?I should point out that at least in my system, the link with the serial number in it shows up even with the line commented in the rules file.
