Hi, Is there any way that one can change the location of the journal file when the file system is created ? For eg., instead of using inode# 7 and the blocks at the beginning of the file system, I'd like to use an inode at a different cylinder group and some other set of blocks. Even if I'm allowed only to use one of the reserved inodes, is it possible to put the journal file somewhere in

Hi, I'm using linux 2.4.25 and I'm trying to change the wakeup interval of kupdate daemon. Is there a way to change that ? I once used 'update' tool for that. But that is not there in 2.4.25. Has it been removed ? I appreciate any help regarding this. thanks, Vijayan

Hi, I have a question on fsync() and ext3's journaling modes. Assume that I call fsync(fd) on a file. If that file is in 'data=journal' mode, would the fsync() return once the data gets safely into the journal ? On the other hand, if that file is in 'data=writeback' mode, would the fsync() return only when the data gets safely into its actual location ? Any help is

Hi, I have a doubt on how the transaction semantics work in ext3. When I copy a file, does the entire copy is treated as one transaction so that finally I have either the full file or no file. Or will it be split into multiple transactions which can result in copying partial files. thanks, Vijayan

Hi, I have a doubt in the ordering of writes in ext3. Any help is appreciated. Ext3 enforces certain ordering in writes to ensure data integrity. For example, the journal writes are issued first and only after their successful completion the actual writes are issued. Sometimes we need to maintain ordering across transactions also. This is needed because if the actual writes of one transaction

Dear R Group Here is what i am trying to do.. but couldnt figure out how.. string<-"ABC DEFG HIJKLM NOPQ RSTUV WXY" string1<-substr(string,1,4) I want to create an R object string 2 ( following the logic shown).. R does not allow string subtraction.. any suggestions how to achieve this? string2<-string-string1 (it should now hold "DEFG HIJKLM NOPQ RSTUV WXY" I

There was a question in R forum very long time back.. on how to protect R Script files from inadvertent editing by users. There is a way to do this from within R, atleast in Windows XP I have tried this and it certainly works , The method is very different from the OS based folder protection route, however making available such a method in the open forum would only kill the very spirit of R.

Hi I am looking at generating a random dataset of say 100 values fitting in a normal distribution of a given mean and SD, I am aware of rnorm function. However i am trying to build into this function one added constraint that all the random value generated should also obey the constraint that they only take values between say X to X+25 How do i do this in R? Any help would be highly appreciated,.

Dear R Group I have a character vector from which I want to select a few elements and create a new character vector. I need a GUI to do this in R Script. Can someone help? a<-c("A","B","C","D","E") ## I want to have a GUI in R that will display elements in "object a" as a drop down list.. from there I want to be able to select a

@Don your solution does not solve Vijayan's scenario 2. I used spread and gather for that. An alternative solution to insert mising Fval - picking up with Don's newtst - is newtst <- c("FName: fname1", "Fval: Fval1.name1", "FName: fname2", "Fval: Fval2.name2", "FName: fname3", "FName: fname4", "Fval: fval4.fname4")

Using Ulrik?s example data (and assuming I understand what is wanted), here is what I would do: ex.dat <- c("FName: fname1", "Fval: Fval1.name1", "Fval: ", "FName: fname2", "Fval: Fval2.name2", "FName: fname3") tst <- data.frame(x = ex.dat, stringsAsFactors=FALSE) sp <- strsplit(tst$x, ':', fixed=TRUE) chk <-

Hi Vijayan, one way going about it *could* be this: library(dplyr) library(tidyr) library(purrr) ex_dat <- c("FName: fname1", "Fval: Fval1.name1", "Fval: ", "FName: fname2", "Fval: Fval2.name2", "FName: fname3") data.frame(x = ex_dat) %>% separate(x, c("F1", "F2"), sep = ": ") %>% filter(F2

Dear R Group I have a matrix object in R, where i want to retain only those columns which have each row from a different group.. see the example below.. team1<-c("a1","a2","b1","b2","b3","c1","c2") teams<-combn(team1, 3) I want a function which will delete all columns in the teams matrix that have more than 1 row

Dear R Group I had an observation that in some cases, when I use the randomForest model to create partialPlot in R using the package "randomForest" the y-axis displays values that are more than -1! It is a classification problem that i was trying to address. Any insights as to how the y axis can display value more than -1 for some variables? Am i missing something! Thanks Regards

Dear R Help group I need to run a command line script from within R session. I am not clear how i can acheive this.

Dear R Group I was trying to use the triangle.test function in SensoMineR and strangely i encounter a error in the output of preference matrix from the analysis. To illustrate, pl see the following dataframe of a design with the response and preference collected as shown below: design<-structure(list(`Product X` = c(3, 1, 4, 2, 4, 2, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4, 2, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4, 2, 3, 1), `Product Y` =

Dear Group I have to populate a column in a R dataframe containing say 99 rows, where for every 3 row one row (randomly determined) of the column should take the value 1 and the other 2 row of that column should take the value 0. I used the command dataframe$new<-rep(sample(c(0,1,0),3,replace=FALSE),99) This command repeats the same patter of response across the entire column.. I would
