hi Guys, As we get ready to start publishing Cloud Images ( or rather images consumable in various virt platforms, including public and private clouds ) - it would be great to have a baseline package manifest worked out. What / how many images should we build. At this time we were thinking of doing : - CentOS-5 32bit minimal - CentOS-6 32bit minimal - CentOS-5 64bit minimal - CentOS-6 64bit

Hi All, I see that sparc.centos.org does not contain any ISO's so that I can install from CD. How does one install over the internet? I have never done it before. I assume use the boot.iso and make sure that I have DHCP turned on so that I get an IP automatically from my router? Any advice? -Jason

Looking at what my best options for managing KVM via a gui. Running Centos 5.4 and have several machines and want to migrate off of vmware server 2.x. So far it appears that the management tools haven't quite cought up to Vmware but are gaining and closing. I have been looking at convirt, and others. I like what I see in Ovirt but I'm not sure it is available for centos 5.4, or is it?

Hi all. I am currently building a small test cloud based on Eucalyptus 2.0.3 and CentOS 5.8 x64. I have a choice which hypervisor to use: KVM or XEN. KVM is the default in CentOS 6 but I have read also many good things (for example PV guest machines, isolation between Dom0 and DomU) about XEN. Key factors from my opint of view are: - stability (which one runs more smoothly on CentOS?) -

hi Guys, We've been trying to get something like this setup for long time, now thanks to Khusro Jaleel's efforts its online! The CentOS Promo request system is available at http://promo.centos.org/ And we have some TShirts there - three different designs, six different colours and a few options on sizes for each type. Get them quick! The TShirts are already paid for by sponsors, all you

hi Guys, Over the last 24 hours we have had a series of stability issues. First, the DC our mail/lists machine is hosted in had power issues ( Internap LGA9, NY, USA ); then we had a h/w failure and needed a chassis swap ( thanks to the guys in the DC who executed this within minutes ); and we have since again had network issues - although power to the DC and the server seems stable now. Over

My stock CentOS 5.4 box won't come up after a reboot as reported from my office. Error is: "duplicate or bad block in use" Before rebooting xm dmsg had printk suppressed messages. The box is remote, 2 hour drive. Some advice on what hardware to bring with me and how to approach this via fsck would be welcome. Its an nvidia dmraid boot on WD Velocirapters. And Happy New Year to

Who was the genius that decided that system-config-network-tui should NOT be part of the base CentOS 6.3 install ?? Not to mention it has insane deps like wifi firmware packages... not really if all you want to do is configure eth0 from the command line... FC

hi, Some of you might have seen the email on the centos-devel list, for the rest I just wanted to point out that we've been working on getting opennebula ( http://www.opennebula.org/ ) rpms and contextualised images for opennebula available with a very low barrier to entry for CentOS. The 'win' with OpenNebula is that its easy to install, easy to get going, scales well and mostly

Hey, folks, I just saw Johnny mention 5.9 yesterday, and this morning, my manager tells me he got about 100 emails from somewhere about 5.9 and a CR repo. So, my questions to the team is: is there a CR repo, and is there some urgency to enabling it, or shall we just wait for the release? The *only* thing I can think of having real issues with is the newest PIV cards.... mark

Hi all Just on a fresh CentOS 6.2 minimal install, it doesnt find lxc: [mihamina at dev-spare ~]$ sudo yum install lxc [...] No package lxc available. Error: Nothing to do [mihamina at dev-spare ~]$ yum provides lxc-create [...] No Matches found Well, I think this is not really a problem: there probably is a personal packager that made his own lxc package and some people in

Hi subscribers, the sponsor of the machine our mailserver runs on will be physically moving the machine at around May 27th 04:00 UTC. This move will take until around May 27th 07:00 UTC (or shorter). This means that there will be no activity on the mailing lists during that time. We all hope that the machine will come up without problems again after the move. If it doesn't, service (mailing

I'd like to download the official CentOS AMI files for 6.3 x86_64, but that does not seem possible. The goal is to use the same image on both public and private clouds, to improve consistency. Are the AMI files available for download anywhere, or from anyone? I offer my apologies if the CentOS-virt list is not the correct contact for this query. -- Karl Ward -------------- next part

Is there an easy way to mirror people.centos.org? I tried "rsync people.centos.org::" and it gives some disclaimers followed by a null list of available modules. I've got an ugly workaround using wget, but would prefer to use rsync. c -- Carl T. Miller Systems Engineer carl at carltm.com

My username is AaronAnderson I want to create wiki pages for community use with instructions on how to do common post-install tasks such as Configuring a multi-client OpenVPN server, or adjusting fonts, or installing LAMP, or replacing apache with lighttpd. All things I have documented on a personal wiki... It's time to share. Aaron

Hi guys, I'm a MAJOR fan of CentOS and its proven itself a lifesaver many a time in my professional and personal lives. I was hoping to help out by contributing to the wiki by translating as much as is possible of the wiki into Arabic. The thing is, the wiki is split into several ISO based country codes and there are 22 countries where Arabic is the national language, do I pick one in

Could I please, pretty please, with whipped cream and a cherry on top, be given the privilege to alter the most exalted and sublime of pages, the Arabic wiki? :) I'm still pumped up about this and I'm planning on staying pumped up about this for quite some time.

Hi, Why does http://www.centos.org/docs not point to say this for example: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/index.html The latter is more comprehensive. The links that http://www.centos.org/docs contains all have "upstream" labels on the reading material, so I'm guessing the trademark boundries are not being crossed. Regards, Paul (Crunch)
