similar to: look for atomicity problem using ext3 through NFS

Hi, I've recently installed ext3 on an 800MB RAID5 (software) array. I am running RedHat Linux 7.1 with the Linux kernel 2.4.12-ac3 on a 1GHz Pentium system with 128MB RAM. I am seeing a significant amount of write operation slowdown when running ext3 (and kjournald), as opposed to my old ext2. The problem seems to be associated with the times that kjournald is accessing the disk. At

Hi all I've been getting some emails from the R package maintainers that I need to update some code in a CRAN packge that uses FORTRAN, to comply with (not so recent) changes. I've been a little busy... I'm having trouble adjusting my code. I hope someone can help. The package was working fine, and a few R functions in my package had lines like this: tmp <- .Fortran(

I have a question regarding a thread in June called "Distinct transactions", which I have included below. It seems to me that the solution is not atomic for daemons opening the file as there is a moment where the filename is not in the directory (i.e. unlink then link). In summary, poster Charlie Woloszynski wanted to update a configuration file in a safe manner (i.e. as a

Dear R-users, I'm trying to model some data using a tweedie GLM approach. My response variable is the number of pupae that are the offspring of a subordinate wasp on a wasp's nest. However, they're not count data- for each nest, I only know the mean number of pupae per subordinate, which is continous. The data also contain a high proportion of zeros. I'm not very experienced at

Dear Catarina, I prefer to leave the AIC value as NA for the tweedie GLM family because it takes extra time to compute and is only occasionally wanted. It's easy to compute the AIC yourself using the dtweedie() function of the tweedie package.

Hello all, I have count data with about 36% of observations being zeros. I found in some of the examples of the r-help mail archives that a tweedie family of distributions could be used to fit a model with random effects. Upon installing the tweedie package and attempting to fit the following model: lmer(SUS ~ 1 + (1|

Dear R users; I am modelling densities of some species of birds, so I have a problem with a great ammount of zeros. I have decided to try GLMs with the tweedie family, but in all the models I have tried I got an NA for the AIC value. Just to check the problem I've compared the a glm using the Gaussian family with the identity link and a glm using the tweedie family with var.power=0 and

Hello, Many warm thank yous to Bill Rugolsky Jr. and Stephen Tweedie for their help on this one. Both pointed out that since the file system is journaled, if the primary box (nas1) were to crash, the secondary box should mount the ext3 file system without any problems. Depending on the nature of the journal (metadata journaling and/or data journaling), we may have little or no data loss. Bill

Good afternoon My name is Joanne Lenehan, I am a post grad at UNE using R version 2.9.0 I came across the Tweedie package in old R help posts and was interested in giving it a go for some data. The data is below and also attached as BaregroundLitterLogs Site Treatment Graze Dam Plot Time Bare Litter Logs 1 C remote yes 1 A 0 2 0 1 C remote yes 2 A 0 15 0 1 HE

Hi, I'm sorry if this is plain dumb or was already asked, but I couldn't find any reference to this. This is about ssh acting as a real terminal. Do some of you know pipe viewer, or 'pv' ? http://www.ivarch.com/programs/pv.shtml This clever little bit of code tries to write on your terminal some stats about data going through some pipes. But there's a nasty limitation

Post-hoc test for a zero inflated continuous data set with a tweedie distribution? I have a zero inflated continuous data set of aphid feeding duration on 10+ species of plant. I have fitted a glm model with a tweedie distribution and used anova() function to show that there is significance between the plant species. However, I would now like to perform of post-hoc test, ideally a Tukey-Kramer

Hi there, I've been wanting to fit a GLMM and I'm not completely sure I'm doing things right. As I said in a previous message my response variable is continuous with many zeros, so I was having a hard time finding an appropriate error distribution. I read some previous help mails given to other people advising them to use the Tweedie distribution. I'm still not sure if this

There was some discussion in the summer on the mailing list about atomicity and synchronization primitives for LLVM. Is there any progress being made in that department? -- Pertti

Hi, I'm not sure if this is apprriate or not, but here goes anyway. The patch below updates MAINTAIER address Individuals (Only Andrew :): osdl.org -> linux-foundation.org Lists: osdl.org -> lists.osdl.org I assume the latter will change at some stage, but at least with this change the osdl/linux-foundation lists are consistent.

minios: fix and enforce block_domain atomicity To ensure that the timer event is not lost, block_domain requires that event delivery is disabled. SCHEDOP_block re-enables them, so for coherency (and fixing a bug actually), we should re-disable them after. Also, make sure that the caller disabled them.

Hey all, I learned that using the equals sign "=" to assign objects is generally OK, but will not work in some cases. As I always use "<-" for assignments, I have not encoutered any problems. Could somebody provide an example or explanation, why getting used to "=" is not a good idea? Or is it? Thanks ahead, Berry ------------------------------------- Berry

Hi, I have an ext3 file system on top of LVM and i use journaled mode. I would like to make a snapshot of my filesystem while the application is running in order to backup on another physical storage. For that i have to create an LVM snapshot and then to mount it in read-only for copying the content. This is not possible as far as ext3 needs to do a log replay at mount time ( AFAIK). I would

Hello there, I was wondering if somebody could offer me some advice on which error distribution would be appropriate for the type of data I have. I'm studying what continuous predictor variables such as grooming received, rank, etc. affect the amount of grooming given. This response variable is continuous with many zeros, and so positively skewed. So I can't use gamma because of the

Hello, I''m currently setting up some scripts that will pull in new data for Puppet master (modules, manifests, hiera data, etc.) from a Git repository. It works great! However, I''m concerned about atomicity of the whole thing. Does the Puppet master cache the modules/manifests when it starts? If so, do I need to restart the Puppet master on each update? Or can I send it a
