I have a customer that is using 250 gig drives for his business data. I have been using rsync to keep mirror copies of his data on a second machine. In the last 3 months I have lost 2 of four drives, the last one being the system drive. I have been doing a manual switchover. Each time rsync runs, I copy my samba conf files, passwd, shadow and group files from etc. Has anyone setup a HA

HI, I am trying to find out why an old slower machineis faster than a new faster machine. I have a RedHat 6.2 server installation, it runs samba and I have been very happy with it. Filesystem is:- [darryl@keg darryl]$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda6 1.2G 735M 387M 66% / /dev/hda1 40M 3.0M 35M 8% /boot /dev/hdc1

Hi all, I've been wrestling with a problem with drdb and centos. I have successfully created one drbd resource, but when I try the create a 2nd, I get an error on one of the nodes: Lower device is already mounted. Command 'drbdsetup /dev/drbd1 disk /dev/hdd1 internal -1' terminated with exit code 20 The partition is not mounted from fstab etc and is newly created with parted after

I have a server running Centos 4.2 with samba 3.0.14a running and using roaming profiles in a domain setup. There is a user with 125 tmp files in his Outlook Express Folder. They date back to June of this year with different sizes from 300K to 65 meg. Is this a sign of a problem with syncing? This same user has another problem. Let's call the user jdoe. When he goes to the server

Hi! Whew, I have googled around a lot w/this but can't quite seem to come up w/the right answer. This system works beautifully w/nothing wrong w/it. But my goal is to be able to test the raid system by just unplugging hda to mimic a faulty drive and have it just carry on and boot from hdc. md0 = hda1/hdc1 /boot (primary boot partitions on both drives) md1 = hda2/hdc2 / is it possible to

I have a CentOS 4.2 system that was set up VERY quickly following the demise of its former life as a CentOS 3 server - you don't want the full story, but it had to be done quickly to get a company up and working following a slight disaster involving an electrician, a portable appliance safety tester and a pulled power cable - anyway, here's where I am at... Everything is running fine but

I downloaded DOS6.22 image from putergeek.com. Used fdisk from that floppy and format from that floppy. Still no luck. If I execute fdisk under leaf (monkeynoodle.org) as fdisk/dev/hdc, and give p for print partition table, I get the following: Disk /dev/hdc: 16 heads, 32 sectors, 123 cylinders. Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdc1

hi! raid 1 arrays: I already have 2 systems running this same raid1 config. 1 sys has 2 120 gb 1 sys has 1 120gb and 1 200gb but matching the raid partitions this system here that is giving me fits right now has 1 250gb and 1 200gb. I tried it w/a new 250 gb for the 2nd drive but the same results. Will not boot. in druid, when I am config. the raid arrays, I always create the boot partitions

I am trying to create an additional domain and have created a configuration file based on the examples. When I try to boot the domain, it eventually hits a Kernel panic, as follows: Red Hat nash version 4.1.18 starting Mounted /proc filesystem Mounting sysfs Creating /dev Starting udev Creating root device Mounting root filesystem mount: error 6 mounting ext3 mount: error 2 mounting none

Hey all, Had a power failure and subsequent ext3 disk corruptions. Attempting to fix, but not working. Its a 120 gig IDE disk, 3 partitions. /boot, /, and swap. Basically can't boot up since the box can't get to the system files in /usr/ or anything. So I'm booting off of a FC2 disk 1 in recovery mode and trying to fix the filesystem with e2fsck The boot partition cleaned up

I have been setting up my domain server using FC2 and samba 3.0.9. First thing, for your information: In the notations in several sources, it tells you to user "logon path = \\%L\profiles\%u" this is wrong. It should be, "logon path = \\%L\profiles\%U". Now that I spent 5 million hours banging my head on a wall with that, how do I get he exist desktops on my 2000/XP

I posted this to the Fedora-list, but thought I might get some additional information here as well. I have a HD that refuses to mount with a 'bad magic number in super-block'. I'm running FedoraCore 6 x86_64.

Hi everyone, This is a strange problem I have been having. I'm not sure where the problem is, so I figured I'd start here. I as having problems with Bacula stopping on 17Gig Volume sizes, so I decided to try to Just dd a 50 gig file. Sure enough, once the file hit 17 gigs dd stopped and spit out an error (pandora bacula)# dd if=/dev/zero of=bigfile bs=1M count=50000 File size

Hi all I''ve taken the plunge and decided to set up Xen on my AMD64 machine. I want to use amd64 debian as the domain 0 O/S, then install a full amd64 debian dev kit and a couple of 32-bit linuxes on top. I''ve got an install of debian amd64 running as domain0, which boots up just fine. I boot it with dom0_mem=131072 (the machine has 1Gb of RAM). I then created some disk

The Xen boot option ''ser_baud=<baud>'' has been removed from the unstable tree. If you were still using this obsolete option then the effect is that you will get no serial output when you boot Xen, which may lead you to believe that there is a more serious problem. To fix this you must move to the new boot option: ''com1=<baud>,8n1'' -- Keir

I am running Xen 3.0.1 with Gentoo for Dom0 and when I create a DomU with Debian, the kernel or system does not seem to recognize the volume I have created for swap on the DomU and will not mount it during boot or after. here is the disk section of the xen config for the DomU: disk = [ ''phy:xen-disks/disk-root,hda1,w'',''phy:xen-disks/disk-swap,hda2,w'' ]
