CentOS is simply great. I use it as my main desktop. I use VMWare clients for any "special needs" software. I am struggling a bit with the plethora of repos and looking for some advice.

Thanks for all the great stuff. Executive Summary: Kernel Parameters or Special Kernel for 5.2 on VMWare?

Hi All, How to install and configure monitoring tools Nagios,lcinga,Zabbix and Ngnix on COS5 and COS6. -- *Thanks,* *Manikandan.C* *System Administrator*

Hi folks I am trying to install CentOS 5.2 in Vmware Server environment. In my VM disk space is not preallocated for the virtual disk (dynamically). The installer doesn't find the disk. When preallocating 6 GB there is no problem. See screenshot[0] Any ideas? kind regards Sven [0] http://bayimg.com/image/lamidaabe.jpg

I need to convert a VMWare Server 2 disk image to QEMU. I've read that QEMU supports VMWare disk formats. I just want to be sure it also supports the old VMWare Server 2 format. Anyone has any experience with/knowledge about this? Tnx in advance, Allart

Hello all, Is there a way to recognize a hot-plugged disk (i.e., to get the system to recognize it and build the appropriate /dev/sd* device for the new device) without a reboot? Thanks. Boris.

Hi, I think, this is possible with scsi disks http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/vmware-add-a-new-hard-disk-without-rebooting-guest.html Eero 4.11.2015 4.32 ip.
