Hello, I like migrate and consolidate a lot of Windows and samba files servers to a new samba installation. Following situation: ---------------------- At the moment are working about 3000 users in two sites with a amount of 30TB data. Over the next years, it may grow up until 50TB data volume. Planned Hardware: ---------------------- The new disk storage is connected via FC (8GBit/s) to a site

When trying to do a yum update, I am told I need more space in /boot. When I check the contents of /boot (ls -l /boot), there are no files. If I do a df -h, there is no available space yet it shows that it has a lot of used space. The fstab shows the following: # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 /

On Saturday I finally upgraded a machine from CentOS 4.3 (I think) to 4.5 via yum. Seemed to went fine. However, during the following night /home got mounted read-only because of an EXT3-fs error. The next night happened the same. Also, today, I saw the first-ever kernel crash on this machine. The machine is about three years old or so, went into production two years ago with CentOS 4.1 or so and

Hi, i am seeing something interesting since the upgrade to 2.2.19/0.0.7a - I am experimenting with the am930 wireless driver and i am crashing on module exit. Everytime i reboot afterwards the var fs on /dev/hda8 is inconsistent [...] Checking all file systems...

In the Red Hat Linux spec file for the 2.2.19 kernel, there is a note not to enable ext3 and LFS at the same time. I'm wondering whether this is an old note, and that it is safe to use ext3 0.0.7a on a system with LFS enabled, or if there are still issues with it. I'm aware that 0.0.7a is a really old version, and 2.2 isn't the most modern kernel, but it is what I have to work with.

Hi there, I am very new in linux and met the filesystem problem as described in the following, I tried to use 'fsck' and tried to find some support documents but failed. Your hints and helps are very appreciated. Millions of thanks, Annie The error message is (sorry for it's length, I just want to make it clear) ====================================================================

Hi, I installed a 2.4.18 kernel, with ext3 support and make a tune2fs -j /dev/sdxxx with all partitions, now I want to run a 2.2.20 kernel, I want to know if I can use the patch for 2.2.20 series (0.0.7a) without problems with my new ext3 partitions, or I must mount it as ext2 from 2.2.20, greetings and reply to admin@cideweb.com, I'm not subscribed to the list.

Hi! I've upgraded my seawolf to ext3fs with the packages from Roswell (kernel, filesystem, mount, ....), but when doing 'tune2fs -j', it mentions 'Ext3fs version 0.0.5b'...? Isn't version 0.0.7a the latest?? Why isn't that version included in the Roswell kernel, but an older version is? And how can i upgrade my version of ext3fs? Thanks! Bart Verwilst

Hello, Now that kernel 2.2.20 is out with security fixes, I'd be interested in using it with ext3. The latest patch for 2.2.19, 0.0.7a, applies with some offset (both with and without kdb), and even compiles (without kdb), but I scarcely know what I am doing so haven't tried it yet. Could people in the know enlighten me on that point? I guess there is little chance for another ext3

Hi, folks. I need some new replacement batteries for rack-mount APC UPSes. My old vender... well, the salesman I dealt with for several years left about a year and a half ago, and last year's purchase was a disaster (wrong batteries, wrong batteries, months to get the shipping to return the wrong batteries...), so I'm looking for a new, reliable vendor who does US government contract

Hi, I am trying out ext3 with an external journal (on a battery backed RAM card). I use data=journal, and sync nfs writes go nice and fast :-) But.. I had to power cycle it (buggy VM.. grumble :-) and now I cannot get my filesystem back. It is only a test filesystem so I don't need the data. But I want this to work before I put real data on it. If I "fsck /dev/md1", it

A patch that implements acls on ext3 for kernel 2.2.x is available at http://moldybread.net/patch/kernel-2.2/ It looks to be stable. Beat it, break it.

I installed CentOS on my home-server with 2 IDE 160GB MAXTOR HDD / RAID-1, LVM and ext3 partitions. Previous OS on this machine was FC2. I often "play" with LVM and, sometimes, have to extand or reduce some volumes size. I was surprised to see that resize2fs isn''t included anymore ! The replacing tool is ext2online but this one seems to only be able to grow a filesystem (not

Hello all, There is one enhancement request open for dwarfv5, http://dwarfstd.org/ShowIssue.php?issue=191107.1 The request is for addition of dwarf expression operator to swap the top of the dwarf stack, the response seems positive but it may take some time till v6. I like to add that operator as vendor extension but I am not sure how to go about it for llvm/lldb. Currently I am using it as

hello all, I am trying to expand my /var file system which resides on a logical volume. I successfully issued the lvextend command.

I''m trying to get Rails up and running on a new port of Ruby to Arm/WinCE devices that I''ve been working on, built using CEGCC tools for ''mostly'' Posix compatability, rather than using the existing Ruby WinCE binaries. Ruby runs and is installed under \ruby in root of the device itself. I''ve edited the following files of a default Rails 2.0.2 *zip*

I've not been happy with the stories about the "stable" 2.4.x kernels. Everywhere I read people saying "not for production use". Would you recommend adding ext3 to 2.2.19 (ext3-0.0.7a) or moving to 2.4.1x and using ext3 there (ext3-0.9.12)? -- -IAN! Ian! D.

I've not seen this asked since I've been on the list; but was wondering... I'm currently sticking to the 2.2 line and have no plans to move to 2.4 right now. Is there any attempt to back port some of the changes in the newer 2.4 line back into 2.2? ext-0.0.7a.tar.gz has been stable thus far, but it's getting kind of old. NEM

Hello, Thanks for prompt reply. Motivation, In case of debugging of bi-endian dwarf and value known at runtime some of the raw values needs to be byte swapped to change the endianity. We have a llvm based compiler which generates such dwarf, TAG_variable marked as big endian and debugging on little endian host using lldb. The listed operator on dwarf issues does that, one operator instead of

Using 2.2.1a and a 2.4 kernel patched for win4lin. Everything is working but: I mount all the available network shares on my linux box as root to one network directory. If a windows client shuts down while the linux box is still connected, the share is not removed from my mount list or from /proc/mounts It cannot be removed with umount. I can kill the smbmount with kill -15 but the share is still
