Hi, a customer has a Centos installation on SCSI disk (aic7xxx), there are some programs that he no longer have the installation media (some accounting stuff). Due to the SCSI disk going bad we must tranfer the installation to some other disks. SCSI disks are very difficult to find here and must be ordered (and wait about 45 days to arrive at the dealer). Can I clone the SCSI disk to a IDE Disk

Hello everyone. I am looking for a way to move a CentOS 4 installed production hard disk to another system (which has another hardware). The first has an nvidia sata controller (sata_nv), but the second has a via sata (sata_via). For all the rest of the hardware it can upgrade well I know, but if the sata driver is different, then the system doesn't boot because the proper driver is not

Hi all, A few months ago, I migrated some of our internal servers to HP blades, as the VMWare box they were previously running on was getting too slow. However, it wasn't without it's problems, and eventually the only way I could get them to work was: Install the same version of CentOS on the blade (believed to be 5.0, but /etc/redhat-release says 5.2) Took down both servers, booting

Hi, haven't found anything in google's, i wonder if there is a comparative page of what to expect from running * on motherboards like the EPIA and similar ones. Since i have not used *ever* such kind of mini atx form factor boards, I have no clue about their performance.

Folks- I have had a machine dropped in my lap that I am trying to get CentOS 4.1 to run on as a first pass (the hope is for it to eventually run Rocks -- http://www.rocksclusters.org , which uses CentOS 4.x as its underlying OS). The machine has 2 Opteron 250DP (2.4GHz) with 4 GB of RAM. It is using a Tyan Thunder K8WE (S2895A2NRF) motherboard with an nVidia nForce chipset --

Posted a similar version of this to the RHEL4 list... I''m having trouble getting CentOS 4.2 installed on a DL140G2 with two SATA drives. I am doing a PXE install, so I do not have a CD-ROM drive in the system and this appears to have the side-effect that both SATA drives are caught by the Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver before ata_piix can catch it. As soon as I hook an IDE CD-ROM

Hi folks, an Asterisk (www.asterisk.org) box will be built with the following specs and I wanted to know if CENTOS has a built process/config/parameter/special distro to target the AMD Opteron Dual Core plataform: 2 amd opteron 265 dual core 1.8 Ghz 2mb l2 cache 2x1024 ocz c2-6400 dual channel gold GX XTC 2 Seagate 16mb cache 300 GB barracuda 7200 drives another 2 Seagate 500 GB 16mb cache

Hi, I migrated a physical CentOS 4.8 server into a VM on a CentOS 5 KVM host. Everything works fine, I even can use the paravirt drivers for network and disk. However the required kernel modules are not put into initrd somehow. Of course I can call "mkinitrd --with virtioblk ..." manually but that's too easy to forget. I searched the web but I didn't find any similar

Also, any suggestions for the above definition?

Hi all, i want to virtualize an existing Centos 5.x machine (intel xeon, 64 bit OS, Qlogic HBA) into a vmware 3.X VM that will not be connected to the SAN (hence no need for the HBA drivers). So i googled a while and found this link: http://virtualaleph.blogspot.com/2007/05/virtualize-linux-server-with-vmware.html However the link is quite old and I wonder if anyone here has done such conversion

virt-p2v was able to convert my centOS 5.2 physical machine to xen virtual machine and it runs great. Now, I am working on to convert this full virt machine to para virt . Under my domU i have installed kernel-xen (since it is needed ) , and edited my grub menu to use the installed kernel. My grub menu file in domU looks like: ---- kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-92.1.17.el5xen ro

I have no idea as to how to size an email server. I was approached by a customer that wanted a single server with RAID 1 disks to handle about 5 million emails a day. In general terms, what parameters should I take into account to size the hardware specs when the average email is about 10kb, the smalles email is 2kb and the largest email is about 5meg (with attachment) thanks, --

Hello All, I have a machine that crashed. Some part of the motherboard (power supply-related) went south. The motherboard, CPU and memory have been replaced with a much newer architecture. The OS and data are intact on two SATA drives that were RAID1 with LVM. I am going to use 'linux rescue' to recover the LVM backup so I can mount the RAIDs (there were two) in a new CentOS

Hi, today a customer asked how to use asterisk with 12 to 16 FXO ports. I can use a channel bank with 16 FXO ports and connect the channel bank with a T1 cable to a T1 card in the Asterisk Server. Asterisk will then send the calls to the Voip provider over the internet. However a 16 fxo port channel bank is about USD 1500 + a t1 card USD 500 + a USD 1000 computer = 3 thousand us dollars + my

Hi, One customer has Centos 5 installed. He wants to have a web based frontend to the vacation program because he is in charge to enable the vacation msg for all the users in leave. I tried webmin but the webmin vacation module points to a nonexistant link. And the usermin module is very old and requires the user to do it by themselves. Suggestions? --

Greetings list! Because of the sheer number of box (re)installations we do that have a CentOS base, I've converted our provisioning process to PXE. However, I've found that an alarming number of motherboards are coming with the Realtek RTL8168 ethernet controller onboard. When the system boots, it cannot find an ethernet controller and the installer process hangs. I made a new initrd
