Hi, As someone new to puppet I''m trying to work out the best way to manage different filesystems and logical volumes on different servers. Specifically I would like to be able to define on a series of nodes different LVM logical volumes to create and mount. I''m trying to do this at the moment with a define of the following type: # Manage a partition and create if needed.

When virtio-blk device is resized from host (using block_resize from QEMU) emit KOBJ_CHANGE uevent to notify guest about such change. This allows user to have custom udev rules which would take whatever action if such event occurs. As a proof of concept I've created simple udev rule that automatically resize filesystem on virtio-blk device. ACTION=="change", KERNEL=="vd*",

I am running a Debian Squeeze Xen 4.0.1 Hypervisor and 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 dom0. My xen-tools.conf: lvm = vg00 size = 100Gb # Disk image size. memory = 2048Mb # Memory size swap = 2G # Swap size # noswap = 1 # Don''t use swap at all for the new system. fs = ext4 # use the EXT3 filesystem for the disk image. dist = `xt-guess-suite-and-mirror --suite` # Default

Hi, We have a VM with several USB devices attached. Everything works well, but sometimes, after a reboot of the host, some usb device get a different bus/device number and that prevent the reboot of the VM : ------- error: Failed to start domain xxx error: internal error: Did not find USB device 04b9:0300 bus:1 device:5 ------- I guess this is because we have multiple usb devices with the same

I have searched the list, and don't see this covered or didn't search for the right words. I'm running CentOS 4.8 and have some DVD's for 5.4. I have a lot of customized and additional software installed and would like to avoid starting over with a scratch install. After the upgrade from the DVD I would do a yum upgrade to 5.5. Is this a workable (and safe) thing to do? What

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

I have a machine with two swap partitions (sda2 and sda8). Both will have none as mount point. When I try to use puppet (using mount type) for managing fstab I get problems because "name" in both instances (i.e. mount path) will be "none". How should I fix this within puppet? Regards Halvard Moe

hello all, Hoping for some help on copying Logical Volumes. I would like to copy an existing LV to a newly formed LV. I don't want to do a snapshot of an existing LV. Only way I've seen is to mount the to LV and: mount /dev/vg00/lv00 /mnt/orig mount /dev/vg00/lv01 /mnt/copy cd /mnt/orig tar cf - ./ |(cd /mnt/copy; tar xf - ) Is there a LV tool to do this? Or an option used with

I am trying to install CentOS from an ISO image file but the installer does not see a CD-ROM drive. The VNC viewer works but the CentOS installer indicates "Unable to find any devices of the type needed for this installation type." Then it prompts with "[Select driver] [Use a driver disk] [Back]". I have tried several variations of the "disk" paramater, all

Hi, I am using CIFS 2.01.01 on HPUX11V2. CIFS is running in ADS security-mode. Winbind is used to map the userers from the W2K3-Domain (german) to an tdb-file. The user mapping works fine, but I have problems with the ACLS: setting the ACLS to a file or folder from windows leads in "access denied". I'm the owner of the object and have full access. The really crazy thing is,

Hi! I am setting up a test bed for Samba PDC + LDAP. I used the 3.0alpha21 rpm for RH8 from samba.org. The setup is working. Win9x client can login no problem. I was wondering how I should setup an "Administrator" account for the domain. Right now, my plan is to have samba authenticate only to the ldap backend ("passdb backend = ldapsam" only). Does the administrator

Hi List, I run XEN 2 since some month (unfortunatly installed by a fiend of mine). Recently I bought some new hardware and tried to get XEN 3 running on a Debian Sarge 3.1. I installed via the Debian installer a RAID 1 with LVM. even though there are some devfs_mk_dir errors systems comes up. Now I installed XEN but system doe not boot as the boot device seems not to be recocnized by the

I tried to start a linux hvm domain (just for testing some things compared to a pv domain), and it didn''t start up. I then did a ''xm shutdown'', which didn''t work, then a ''xm destroy'', and from then the ''xm list'' function just hung. I then restarted xend, and ''xm list'' works, but now when I try to start the

This is happening on anything other than plain vanilla Dell servers. One R730, with dual Tesla cards, one R420, with a fibre card for a RAID device, it never switches root. All these systems have Xeons, not AMD CPUs. We've had this with every one of the 327 kernels. In addition, it seems to happen also with the 229.20.1; the 229.14.1 has no such problem. >From the rdsosreport: starting

Hi, I got this error when starting a domU on Centos 5.1 i386, Device 0 (vif) could not be connected. Hotplug scripts not working. Why is this happening ? I should restart the machine to see if this still happends after a fresh network bridge. But it's somehow a production server, I would like not to restart it, if possible. No domU is currently running. I could start domUs a week ago.

First let me say that I'm not a sysadmin, but am simply wearing that hat this week so please excuse my ignorance. I need to temporarily move some virtual servers from a CentOS-KVM platform to a CentOS-XEN platform while I do some upgrades to the CentOS box. I've created a local LV, and used DD and SCP to transfer the block device from the VKM machine to the XEN machine. For quite a

I have full virtualized CentOs with disks ike this ------------- /dev/vg00/lv_root / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/hda1 /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 --------------- I try change my it to paravirtualized, but after reboot I got kernel panic, because /dev/vg00/lv_root wansn''t found. ----------------- this is my grub

I have had a similar problem to many other people for the last few months with my Cyberpower UPS. It was working properly after reboot about one in five times; the rest of the time it would endlessly disconnect and reconnect, according to syslog messages. The latest I was able to find towards a solution is http://www.mail-archive.com/nut-upsuser at lists.alioth.debian.org/msg06671.html The root

Hi, What's the correct way to change configuration parameters for an iSCSI device? For example I/O scheduler, max_sectors_kb, etc... I could add commands to the S99local script: echo noop > /sys/block/sdb/queue/scheduler echo 64 > /sys/block/sdb/queue/max_hw_sectors_kb Unfortunately, iSCSI device names might change from sdb to, say, sdc (server reboot, iSCSI target reconnection).
