Hi, I have a RAID 1 (using mdadm) on CentOS Linux and in /proc/mdstat I see this: md7 : active raid1 sda2[0] sdb2[1] 26627648 blocks [2/2] [UU] [-->> it's OK] md1 : active raid1 sdb3[1] sda3[0] 4192896 blocks [2/2] [UU] [-->> it's OK] md2 : active raid1 sda5[0] sdb5[1] 4192832 blocks [2/2] [UU] [-->> it's OK] md3 : active raid1 sdb6[1] sda6[0] 4192832 blocks [2/2]

The options -x -v gave me an error that no such option so I ruined it with —debug option. root@ny2proxd03:/var/lib/vz/images/100# virt-resize --expand /dev/sda3 vm-100-disk-1.qcow2 vm-100-disk-1.qcow2.resized --debug command line: virt-resize --expand /dev/sda3 vm-100-disk-1.qcow2 vm-100-disk-1.qcow2.resized --debug Examining vm-100-disk-1.qcow2 ... libguestfs: trace: add_drive

Am I right in thinking that the numbering of the versions are in synch with the gcc version that one is recommened to build with? In other words "use gcc version 3.foo". -- John Maclean - 07739 171 531 MSc (DIC) _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi list, should it be possible to scp a partition with this command: scp /dev/sda7 backupserver:/backup/sda7.img I always get "not a regular file" - which is a clear and understandable error, but my googling tells me that some people are doing this - and it seems to work - at least at their systems. I know that I can avoid this by simply doing dd if=/dev/sda7 | ssh backupserver dd

Hi everyone, I made a utility tool for dm-ioband version 0.0.4, named iobandctl. It enables you to easily apply I/O bandwidth control to an entire disk, and manage it. It helps you set the percentage of bandwidth to give each partition, and each user, process, group, or cgroup. (You are not able to use cgroup support yet, because the dm-ioband patch to enable cgroup support

This lays the groundwork for setting Root and RootBackup onto individual partitions for multiple disk installations in the future. Install, removal, upgrade testing has been performed and all seems to work at this point. --- scripts/ovirt-config-boot | 15 ++++++++------- scripts/ovirt-config-storage | 28 +++++++++++++++------------- scripts/ovirt-config-uninstall | 2 ++

I've taken my RH7.1 system, rebuild kernel (2.4.9 with ext3 patches) and followed the ext3 instructions to install. Everything seems to work OK but - df -k doesn't list the ext3 partition (my root partition). Is this a known problem ? If not, how best can I gather diagnostics to identify the source of the problem ? Thanks -- Philip Nelson (teamdba@bojnice.com)

I have read many Centos webpages and mail archives but found only raw descriptions of the build process. My first aim is to rebuild CentOS-6.4-x86_64-LiveCD.iso using the Centos repositories and preferably without recompiling the SRPMs, just to verify the build process. My final aim is to create a Centos LiveOS contain the packages in CentOS-6.4-x86_64-minimal.iso plus some network configuration
