VMware?s memory ballooning feature purposely keeps some of the guest?s RAM locked away from the kernel. This is where RAM comes from when another guest needs more physical RAM than it currently has access to:

Hello all: Does anyone know of a tool/project that will allow me to read the battery condition (not the charge status) on a Dell laptop battery? Under XP there is a utility that warns that the battery is still holding a charge but that the battery is degraded and should be replaced. Also, not sure if this is possible, but I would like to control how the laptop charges the battery. I tend to

I have an issue that is not all that unique, so I'm hoping someone has done it before. On the client end I have some very old RedHat based systems. On the server end is a Windows 2008 system running NFS server software. The clients mount the server resource as an NFS2 mount but some compliance issues were discovered with the setup. For various reasons, updating the client is not an option at

Hello All: I'll ask this in the virt list later if this is not the appropriate forum... Yesterday I was troubleshooting an issue with a KVM host. I was unable to access the DNS service on a KVM virtual machine. After verifying that the vm allowed through the DNS ports (53 on UDP/TCP) and still being unable to access, I was able to connect immediately after allowing those ports on the

Hi I wanted to download and install the net-snmp package. Usually on my other CentOS boxes i use the following command to do it: yum install net-snmp I was able to successfully install net-snmp on 4 of my CentOS boxes but not on one of them. It reports me the following error message: [root at localhost yum.repos.d]# yum install net-snmp Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Determining fastest

Hello All: I'm having a strange issue with the yum proxy settings. It is directly related to passwords containing exclamation points. For example, the following works fine in yum.conf: http_proxy=http://somentlmproxy.somecompany.com http_password=regularpassword However, if the password contains any exclamation points, it will not authenticate properly. E.g., a password such as

Has anyone ever tried to mass replace installed RedHat RPMS with their equivalent CentOS versions or vice versa? I was thinking of generating a list of all packages and then running RPM or yum with a 'replace' option. The reason for doing this: Years ago I was tasked with building a RHEL4 system. Budgeting, time constraints, the lunar cycle, etc.., prevented the purchase of an equivalent

Just curious... CentOS4 lifetime tracks RHEL4 somewhat... Since RedHat has announced LTS (Long Term Support) for RHEL4, are there plans to extend the CentOS 4 support window?

Hello list, how can I get CentOS 7 to authenticate against a Microsoft ISA server for package installations after the OS is installed. In Debian/Ubuntu apt.conf just needs to be edited and it works. How to do so in CentOS? Regards Tim

Hello all: Happy New Year to everyone and thank you for all the knowledge this past year. I have a hopefully simple question about kickstart. In the authconfig section I can enable ldap, credential caching, etc.. Using the GUI tool there's an option to create the user home directories on first login. The docs don't show a similar option for authconfig in kickstart. For now I'm

Hi, all! I have a server with 4 virtual machines ( using xen). Is there a way to make them share RAM? I found out something about balloons, but it didn't distribute RAM dynamically. So I decided that xen can't achieve that. I tried luci and ricci and now all my VMs are in a cluster. But I don't think this actually helped. Can you suggest a software and/or manual or a question which I

Hi I am working on deploying voip for my company and would like to seek some advice on the number of E1 lines we need to rent. Our telco told us that there can be at most 30 concurrent channels on an E1 line. Typically, what is the maximum number of DIDs that we can allocate to that E1 line before users get frequent "all lines are busy"? We are running a support center with mostly

Good morning to you all: I've been trying for a few hours to connect to the tracker for the 5.2 x64 DVD. It has been giving a "connection refused" error. A few days ago the 5.2 i386 downloaded succesfully. Is the tracker down?? Or is something odd happening on my side?? thanks, Kwan

Hello all. Thank you for reading. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. I am looking to implement a wrapper script/utility that will prompt for a ticket number before running certain commands. I've used similar scripts in the past on systems that I didn't have admin access. The wrapper would do something like this: [root at vm-helios-019] shutdown -h now
