Hi list, here's what just happend: I rebooted my 2.4.15 running machine with SysRq + s u b to boot into 2.4.17pre8. All went fine, fsck found no errors. Upon starting X i found out that my .opera directory went fubar in some way. Stracing ls shows that it gets an EIO trying to stat it. Looking at it with debugfs (and learning fs internals on the fly) shows that inode of that directory only

Hi all, i just had some enlightnening expirience. One of our servers died early this morning. When i rebooted it, it crashed again something like 5 seconds after finishing the boot, with the same oops message. Trying to figure out what is causing it i booted into single user mode and after some more crashes concluded that it is enough just to start postfix and the machine will crash within

Hi list, I'm configuring microsoft doc|ppt|xls viewers to run under KDE. After a bit of hassle even printig works ok :) Great work, guys. I noticed while running xlview.exe that wine proccess grows about 3mb in size each 5 seconds. Running with --debugmsg warn+all shows lots of 'warn:heap:HEAP_Is_Real_Arena Heap 0x40ef0000: block 0x300476d2 is not inside heap' messages. With

Hi all, I was informed[1] that gfs & rhcs packages are in the works but that there are some problems with the code. What are these problems? Can we do anything to help test / solve them?

Hello, As a Virtuozzo users we have majority of our diskspace formatted with -i 1024 -b 1024. Lately I discovered that on CentOS 4.6 ext2online barfs when I try to grow such filesystem. Running it with -v -d, it prints lots of lines like: ext2online v1.1.18 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b ext2online: 873646830 is a bad size for an ext2 fs! rounding down to 873644033 ... group NNN inode table has

Dear all, I'm trying to find a way to automate checkdisk every 1 month on a weekend. in other words i want checkdisk to run every saturday morning. i can of course change the default mount/count though that wont let me control WHEN it will happen. so i need your expert opinion with the following if possible: 1. reboot into single user mode 2. start checkdisk for all disks 3. once done,

Hi all, I'm at the stage of planning our new mail system and am evaluating dovecot for it. For large mailstore setups, it makes sense to split maildirs across many directories. I see that setting default_mail_env to something like maildir:/var/imap/domain/%1d/%d/%1u/user/%u/ would create almost identical on-disk layout as multidomain cyrus setup. Now, as dovecot does not have its own

Hi all, Since I've got no reply on redhat cluster list, I'm trying here ... I'm testing a rhcs4 cluster with gfs. I noticed some poor performance while tarring data from a gfs volume to a local disk from both nodes at the same time, so I deceided to have a closer look. Here are the bonnie++ results: http://jure.pecar.org/gfs/ I don't know what to think of these ... but I doubt

Bug report follows. Please CC me if you want me to read the reply, as I'm not subscribed to ext3-users. [1.] One line summary of the problem: Ext3 has just causing filesystem corruption which required fsck to fix. [2.] Full description of the problem/report: I just had my machine lock up with an ext3 oops, preceeded by a bunch of error messages in the logs. On rebooting, after replaying the

Hi all, Man page of tune2fs says that max journal size is 102,400 filesystem blocks, which translates to ~100MB with 1kb blocks or ~400MB with 4kb block. I wonder - why this limitation exists? Now that relatively cheap ssd devices exist (gigabyte iRam) that offer up to 4GB of space, it would be extremely useful to use whole capacity of such device for full data journaling. -- Jure Pe?ar

Hi list, I just noticed in the chattr(1) man page that there exists a 'j' attribute which actually does the same thing that data=journal mount option would do, expect it only sets this property on the directories of my choice. Big Thanks to the one that came up with that idea :) It allows me to set +j on mail queues that must sit on the same partitions as the rest of the system (the guy

Hi list, I recently came up with the need for the storage, shared between two nodes; one would do all the r/w to it and the other would mount it r/o and serve it to the client boxen. I want to use ext3 in this setup, since i trust it the most. My question is: is this possible? How would the r/o node handle the metadata updates that the r/w node would be doing? If there is some fundamental

Hi all, I'm preparing a little presentation of flac at the local audio club and i'm looking for some documentation about flac: how/why it came into being, some technical info ... I've googled up pretty much everything else i wanted. Also, i remember an ask slashdot some time ago about flac licence. Now i'm unable to dig it up ... does anyone have a direct link? Thanks, --

Unfortunately I can't reproduce your memory leak reports. For example, here is the line about my production darkice instance from top: PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 27516 root 20 0 3564 3564 1340 S 95.6 1.3 47:06 darkice <p>this as after approx 50 minutes from start, but the memory load doesn't change for the whole 4 hours it

If I have the 6th column in fstab (the pass column) set to 0, does that mean disk checks will never be forced at boot regardless of anything like File System State, Mount Count, and Check Interval on the file system itself, or are there exceptions to this? I know `man fstab` says: If the sixth field is not present or zero, a value of zero is returned and fsck will assume that the filesystem does

This morning I discovered this in the logwatch report for our external MX backup host. STARTTLS: write error=syscall error (-1), errno=32, get_error=error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0), retry=99, ssl_err=5: 206 Time(s) I also see many entries similar to this: 8: fl=0x802, mode=140777: SOCK inet04.mississauga.harte-lyne.ca/34091->(Transport endpoint is not connected): 1 Time(s)

Back again with another oops, which looks suspiciously similiar to the one i posted some days ago (https://listman.redhat.com/pipermail/ext3-users/2002-May/003587.html).
