similar to: Compact Flash, EXT3, and IDE - a bad idea?

Hi, I am running rsync on an embedded linux (ppc) like this: rsync -avvv sun::file-system/ /rsyncexperiment Where sun is a solaris machine that has rsync: rsync version 2.5.7 protocol version 26 Copyright (C) 1996-2002 by Andrew Tridgell and others <http://rsync.samba.org/> Capabilities: 64-bit files, socketpairs, hard links, symlinks, batchfiles, no IPv6, 64-bit system inums,

Hi, I'm using ext3 filesystems in embedded devices (storage is on 512Mb or 1Gb CF cards). A typical development cycle would see the filesystem created on the desktop PC running linux 2.4 (eg. RedHat 9). The CF card would be installed in the hardware and linux 2.4 (eg. Montavista Pro 3.1, on PPC) would boot from the CF. Recently I tried a linux 2.6 desktop (CentOS) for the same task and

Does anyone know of a good method for exercising an ext3 file system? Perhaps something that involves power removal in between commits or in the midst of a write, and then checks for corrupt data. Do any utilities exist for this? Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi list, I've a notebook with C7 (1511). This notebook has 2 disk (640 GB) and I've configured them with MD at level 1. Some days ago I've noticed some critical slowdown while opening applications. First of all I've disabled acpi on disks. I've checked disk for badblocks 4 consecutive times for disk sda and sdb and I've noticed a strange behaviour. On sdb there are

Dear All, In Redhat 7.2 kick start installation,badblocks check for HDD is working on creating partition. But in Centos badblocks check is not working in kick start installation. Badblocks check command in kickstart file part / --fstype ext3 --badblocks --size 1000 part /home --fstype ext3 --badblocks --size 12000 part /usr --fstype ext3 --badblocks --size 9000 part swap

Hello everyone, I''m hoping to find an answer to my problem here. Currently I''m installing xen 2.0.7 on 30 dual opteron machines with 4GB memory. The machines have Tyan K8SR as motherboard with Silicon Image 3114 chip sata controler and 2 x 300 GB Western Digital SATA drives. Each xen server has 5 domUs, where some of them have high traffic and thus require high disk usage.

I am running RH 7.3 with kernel 2.4.18-27.7.x. Recently I have added a new 60GB Quantum IDE hard drive to the server. I have set it up as a MASTER on a separate IDE channel. Two partitions on the /dev/hdc are /dev/hdc1, /dev/hdc2 - both using ext3. For more detailed HDD parameters, this is 'hdparm -i /dev/hdc': ----------------- /dev/hdc: Model=IC35L060AVV207-0, FwRev=V22OA66A,

Hello, Having a problem with software RAID that is driving me crazy. Here's the details: 1. CentOS 6.2 x86_64 install from the minimal iso (via pxeboot). 2. Reasonably good PC hardware (i.e. not budget, but not server grade either) with a pair of 1TB Western Digital SATA3 Drives. 3. Drives are plugged into the SATA3 ports on the mainboard (both drives and cables say they can do 6Gb/s). 4.

Hi I have a Firewire connected Micronet 1.5TB RAID with a single large ext3 filesystem on one partition on a dual Xeon system. I am checking out from an extremely large cvs repository (don't ask) to this drive over the course of many days, and intermittently I get bad blocks and the filesystem goes read-only. This is not related to any power failure or anything similar. The RAID is currently

Hi All, Is there a way to check the harddisk health before CentOS installation.? One way I used to do was by using --badblocks check in ks.cfg file while using RH 7.2. This is not working (atleast not with the same syntax as in RH 7.2) in CentOS. Is there an alternate (correct) syntax or is there a new (better) way to check harddisk health before CentOS installation? Please help me

Got an older server here, running CentOS 6.6 (64-bit). Suddenly, at 0-dark-30 yesterday morning, we had failures to connect. After several tries to reboot and get working, I tried yum update, and that failed, complaining of an python krb5 error. With more investigation, I discovered that logins were failing as there was a problem with pam; this turned out to be it couldn't open

Hi Guys, My first post here. I have recently installed RH9 and am having some rather wierd problems that make me suspect file corruption. After some useage the machine locked up hard when trying to use 3d graphics (I have a radeon 7200 with dri enabled). After this happened occasionally the system refuses to boot- it stops at the apm line of the kernel boot process. I tried looking at my hard

Does anyone know if there's a patch out there for 2.4.9-ac10? I'm investigating what's involved to go from ext2 to 3. Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://listman.redhat.com/archives/ext3-users/attachments/20060816/cf899f58/attachment.htm>

Dear friends, I am trying to upgrade dovecot 1.0-alpha3 to dovecot 1.0-beta 5, but I have some problems to do that. When I install its rpm I get a message which indicates I have to install some dependences such as openssl-0.9.7f-7.i386, sqlite-3.2.8-1.9.el4 and libk5crypto.so.3. I haven't had any problems with openssl and sqlite but I always get a message that I need to have the libraries

I decided, after the last discussion of smartd and S.M.A.R.T. disks, to take a look in my /var/log/messages, and I'm seeing fair bit of this: Sep 10 20:11:23 mhrichter smartd[3361]: Device: /dev/sda, 4294967295 Offline uncorrectable sectors Sep 10 20:41:23 mhrichter smartd[3361]: Device: /dev/hdb, 21 Currently unreadable (pending) sectors Sep 10 20:41:24 mhrichter smartd[3361]: Device:
