Hi, I used xen-3.0.2-2 (2.6.16) before and the performance of my 3ware 9550SXU-4LP wasn''t too bad, but now with 3.0.3.0 (2.6.16.29) throughput decreased by about 10MB/sec in write performance. sync; ./bonnie++ -n 0 -r 512 -s 20480 -f -b -d /mnt/blabla -u someuser now (2.6.16.29): Version 1.03 ------Sequential Output------ --Sequential Input- --Random- -Per

Hello, I'm planning a server migration and being able to mount xfs file systems with the live cd would be a cruical feature. So before I download and try ... can anyone tell me whether the xfs is included in the 5.2 live cd? Later on I'm planning to install a new system with xen, 3ware 9550SX-4LP and xfs. The xen domains are of course located on xfs partitions. Do these features come

Hi list, is there any repository on this world where I can stick to and update to a stable and hopefully secure and hopefully long supported version 4.4 of php? EZ publish's software requirements as of the current version tells me that it requires php 4.4 which doesn't meet what Centos 4.4 or its upstream provides. For a certain project I want to use ez publish. Is there any solution

Hi, I'm trying a fresh install on a x86_64 (Supermicro X7dbe, 2xIntel Xeon X5450, 8 GB, 3WARE 9650SE-8LPML, 3 disks in RAID 5). The format takes quite long (2,7 TB), that seems to be normal, but then the first boot will not take place, instead the system loops. Any hints? The message follows: Regards Michael Mounting root filesystem. mount: could not find filesystem '/dev/root'

Hello, I'm trying to install centos-4.7 under kvm (for legacy reasons). I can't get the beast installed, it crashes (see output below). I'm using: qemu 0.9.1 kvm-72 libvirt-0.4.6 kernel 2.6.26 What can I do in order to get the installation being done? The host is a x86_64 machine (debian5). BTW, the installation for centos-5.2 works like a charm with the above configuration. TIA

Hi, I'm trying to install a CentOS 5.2 guest with virt-manager/qemu on a CentOS 5.2 system (X86_x64, 3ware 9650SE, 2 x Intel VT capable xeon cpus, 8 GB) Unfortunately I'm getting a crash in the guest install process. Other systems are installing smoothely, even Windows xp, but the above combination won't install. What works, too: CentOS 5.2 xen unmodified (i.e. fully virtual) guest,

Hi, shutting down a Centos6 kvm guest does not work from outside doing a 'virsh shutdown vmguest', I've installed the CentOS-6.2-x86_64-minimal.iso inside the kvm guest I reckon this is related to acpi ... # dmesg | grep ACPI ACPI Error: A valid RSDP was not found (20090903/tbxfroot-219) ACPI: Interpreter disabled. pnp: PnP ACPI: disabled acpiphp: ACPI Hot Plug PCI Controller Driver

Hi, has somebody already got xen running on centos 4.4? Does the tutorial under http://mark.foster.cc/wiki/index.php/Centos-4_on_Xen also work for version 4.4? I don't have my new server yet in order to try it (it will be delivered at the end of the week), but I'd like to read a little bit about it in advance. Thanks Michael -- Michael Kress, kress at hal.saar.de

I know there are a few 3Ware fans here and I was hoping to find some help. I just built a new server using a 3Ware 9550SX-4LP with four disks in raid 5. The array is fully initialized but I'm not getting the write performance I was hoping for -- only 40 to 45MB/Sec. 3Ware's site advertises 300MB/Sec writes using 8 disks on the PCI Express version of this card (the 9580 I think.)

Hi there, what's your favorite (OS) hosting panel for centos5 ? What's most interesting for me is the usability by others i.e. users who don't know the tool very much, so it has to be very simple. Second is of course security. Greetings & TIA Michael -- Michael Kress, kress at hal.saar.de http://www.michael-kress.de / http://kress.net P E N G U I N S A R E C O O L

Hi, I've got a buffalo 1TB DriveStation run in RAID 1 mode, i.e. 500G space available, but that beast is preformatted in vfat. Buffalo doesn't recommend to run it as ext2/ext3, so I mount a vfat drive wich has the limitations "no symlinks, no uids, no gids, etc.". As I just want to use the DriveStation as a backup target, I did the following: I created files of 4G size with

Hi, has somebody already succeeded in creating a php-4.4 rpm under centos-4.4? php version 4.3.9 compiles perfectly, but taking the 4.3.9 spec and replacing the source tar.gz (and omitting the patches) doesn't work at all. I could provide you with details about compile errors, but I think I should check the availability of a 4.4 package before trashing you with details. TIA Regards

Hi, I wanted to install the newest version of xmule and xmule it was seeking for a libcrypto++, but I couldn't find any rpm which seemed to contain it in order to get a clean install on a CentOS 4.2 machine.

Hi, I know I shouldn't ask stuff like this when using dovecot-0.99.11-4.EL4 (CentOS-4.4), but why I'm asking this is whether it's worth to switch from rpm based upstream dovecot to a self compiled one or not and thus I think you wouldn't kill me presenting you this question. o:-) I've got a problem with dovecot regarding a pop3 proxy issue. When I configure my dovecot server

Hi list, after a bit of struggling I found out how to cleanly install rkhunter ... maybe this is useful for you: * Download rkhunter (I downloaded v 1.2.8) * mv /etc/rpm/platform /root/etc_rpm_platform * setarch i386 rpmbuild -ta --target=i386 rkhunter-1.2.8.tar.gz * mv /root/etc_rpm_platform /etc/rpm/platform * rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/rkhunter-1.2.8-1.noarch.rpm * wget

Hi, I've got a problem with dovecot regarding a pop3 proxy issue. When I configure a dovecot server to do just plain pop3 I can telnet from a windows box without any flaw, but as soon as the client uses some pop3 proxy (for example outlook uses avira antivir Mail-AntiVirus Protection), queries to that server fail. A log line looks like this: pop3-login: Dec 05 22:53:24 Info: Disconnected
