Hi folks, The question I have is regarding to Service resource on Red Hat systems. I have the following: service { [ "anacron", "atd" ]: ensure => stopped, enable => false, hasrestart => true, hasstatus => true, } It runs fine, disabling the service while the system is up. Debugging it, I noticed that it run the following: debug:

I have a kickstart file that I am using to install multiple machines. If I install with no %post script, everything runs great. When I add the following %post section, if fails. I have been working on this for a few days now without luck, Any help would be appreciated. Here is the error, the script follows. Traceback (most recent call first): File

Hi all, I''m trying to find a better way to implement this, but I can''t think of. I have a jdk module that requires to create a symlink to whatever version is the one installed. Say I install jdk-6u35, it will create something like /usr/java/jdk_1.6.35. I would like to create a symlink /usr/java/jdk whose target would be /usr/java/jdk_1.6.35. The point here isn''t to ask

been playing with my host machine and thought some might want to see what I have on and the full list of chkconfig I have installed desktop and x windows system to bring up a desktop when I want one with startx. I turned 'off' quite a bit and yum removed quite a bit. These set of programs still allow full use as a host so far, including the startx desktop. Always afraid to remove or

Hello, I use puppet to configure CentOS 5 servers which have services controlled by linux-ha (heartbeat). This means that these services have to be configured by chkconfig (e.g. "chkconfig --add httpd") but NOT to execute automatically on boot (i.e. "chkconfig httpd off"). Currently, from looking at the source of puppet (version 0.22.4, installed from RPM from

Hi. I have updated system/server that worked for a long time. It was upgrade from 6.4 to latest. After restart, system freezes after most/all of the daemons are booted. From interactive mode I found out that services starting are: ... ... atd jexec atieventsd libvirtd certmonger libvirt-guests local nxsensor nxserver webmin As soon as I allow webmin to pass, system freezes. BUT, if I stop

So, I noticed that when adding a service to puppet, puppet is running a chkconfig <service>. However, as far as I can tell, puppet should be running a chkconfig --add <service>, otherwise the symlinks don''t get created from the service in /etc/rc.d/rc6.d back to the service in /etc/init.d. As as a result, the service is not stopped on shut down. I must be missing something

CentOS 6.5 (AMD64) LDAP DS: via SSSD When I did the OS installation (client site), I had turned the service ON with 'chkconfig sssd on' and 'chkconfig sssd --list' showed that it was ON However, whenever the server has been 'hard' rebooted, 'service sssd status' shows that it is not running. 'chkconfig sssd --list' shows it is OFF! I don't

In an earlier thread it was mentioned I could use postfix stop to stop postfix. I'm trying to get sshd started and starting on boot. I did chkconfig sshd on and that worked fine, but then tried sshd start, but that didn't work. It looks like I need to do service sshd start (I did just that and it is now started). Why the difference? Thanks, -wes

Summary: When I use method="wget" with download.file(), I consistently get a download of the entire file. When I use method="internal", I infrequently get the entire file, but usually get only part of the file. This behavior occurs with .cdf (a weather file format - basically binary) from a UCAR site. I am not sure this is a bug, since it could be some internet

What's available to remotely monitor services? What I'd like is something that can run scripts for each service to connect to a port and verify that it's up, and then send me an SMS message (phone text) to let me know which, if any, are down. Also, does a script exist that checks all the services listed by chkconfig and reports those that should be up but are down?

I am trying to a install Centos 5.1 32-bit Xen HVM DomU onto a Centos 5.1 64bit DomU with the default xen installed and the kickstart hangs at random points during the install process. Sometimes retrieving the image, sometimes formatting the filesystem, sometimes installing the packages,etc. I tried upgrading to xen 3.2 and encounter the same problem before rebuilding back to stock Centos 5.1

I'm upgrading my primary server from RH 7.2 to CentOS-4.3.ServerCD. I REALLY like the ServerCD. Who needs all the fluff that comes with a standard distro? If I want a system-config-gooey I can run Xnest [1] and ssh -X from my laptop. Anyway I have two questions: 1) How can I collectively stop all the NFS, portmap, whatever? I'm hoping it can be manipulated as a group because occationally

Hi All, I a working on configuring a not-quite minimal installation of CentOS 6.2. I tried doing the "minimal" installation available with the installer, but it's a bit too minimal to be useful. So I'm cutting down from a less minimal starting place. I'm pretty familiar with 5.x, but what I'm finding in 6.2 is a lot of new stuff, and a lot of odd behavior. For example,

I get a message while booting of: ide2: I/O resource 0x3EE-0x3EE not free. ide2: ports already in use, skipping probe Googling for this, I find it is relatively common, and on different laptops. I thought it might be my internal SD reader causing the problems, but these other notebooks do not have such devices. Then I found: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~pb22/I8600/ and: " IrDA -

Hello, The last weekend, the VM with CentOS 7 (kernel-3.10.0-327.28.2.el7.x86_64) was running with 2.5GB of used memory, but without users connected, and heavy services running. Three minutes after reboot, the o.s. is running with 114MB used. ?Why the 62% of memory is used if the o.s. does not have an intensive load? top sorted by memory: top - 12:55:34 up 8 days, 21:41, 1 user, load

Hello, I am running a puppet master version 2.7.5 on Centos 5.7 and a puppet agent version 2.7.5. I am simply trying to apply changes to files by defining a file resource in my manifest. When I execute my puppet agent to do the installation it complains it can not find the file meta data. Here is my manifest. class neospeech::config { file { "/usr/vwmrcpd/vwmrcpd/vwmrcpd":

What seems to be an easy thing to do as to install a library into scratchbox is being something difficult to debug. The command "/scratchbox/moz_scratchbox -p apt-get --yes --force-yes install libhildonfm2-dev" can be run in a linux vm with the account "cltbld" without any problems but when I try to test it from this same slave (I remove first the package) or any other slave
