New to samba. Win7 machine cleanly shut down on home network, umount still reports "target is busy". What needs tweaking? Thanks

I have 15x SAS drives in a Dell MD1000 enclosure, attached to an LSI 9200-16e. This has been working well. The system is boothing off of internal drives, on a Dell SAS 6ir. I just tried to add a second storage enclosure, with 15 more SAS drives, and I got a lockup during Loading Kernel. I got the same results, whether I daisy chained the enclosures, or plugged them both directly into the LSI

Hi, we have SunFire X4140 connected to Dell MD1220 SAS enclosure, single path, MPxIO disabled, via LSI SAS9200-8e HBA. Disks are visible with sas-addresses such as this in "zpool status" output: NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM cuve ONLINE 0 0 0 mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0 0

Hi all, Space is starting to get a bit tight here, so I''m looking at adding a couple of TB to my home server. I''m considering external USB or FireWire attached drive enclosures. Cost is a real issue, but I also want the data to be managed by ZFS--so enclosures without a JBOD option have been disgarded (i.e., I don''t want to use any internal HW RAID controllers). One

In this case the environment contains the variables local to the function, and its enclosure is the environment of the enclosing function.(R-lang:p11) I want to know if the "enclosing function" means the closure of the function? for example ,if I call function mean(),and the create an environment,say e1,then the enclosure of e1 is the namespace of base package? Right? Thank you!

I recently purchased an I/O Magic USB enclosure for 3.5" IDE hard drive. Has anyone else used one of these? It works fine with Windows, except of course that Windows can't read the ext2 partitions on the disk I put into the enclosure. CentOS4 can't find the device, much less access the drive -- it doesn't show up in "lsusb" output, although the active light on the

Tired of "little problems" trying to keep 7 drives working in an old desktop computer, I'm considering an external SATA drive enclosure with a controller card based on the Sil3124. http://www.ipcdirect.net/servlet/Detail?no=152 I'm a bit concerned about long-term support, namely that the company's driver page only lists drivers through RedHat 4.

hello list, i have a running vm with win7. When i fire up an 'virsh shutdown win7' nothing happens. When i fire up a second the same command, then the win7 machine is shutting down. Why do i need to fire up this command twice? Any ideas? best regards marko --

Update: Using mount (read-only) and unmount commands in a script that loops continuously, we are able to see near instantaneous file modifications (less than 0.5 sec) performed on a Win7 live guest. We have to use the sync.exe utility (technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897438.aspx), otherwise changes are not visible for 10-20 sec. We tested sync.exe with our libguestfs test program

I am having an extremely strange issue with a BL460c1 (G1) blade on a c7000 enclosure. I could not for the life of me get the machine to ping the gateway or any other blade on the same enclosure (yes, the subnet mask was correct & quadruple-checked); although pinging to the local IP works. I was almost convinced that it was a network or hardware issue; until I asked someone to try

After upgrading Win7 and W2K8 R2 clients to service pack 1 it is no longer possible to log in to domain(before the upgrade the clients can log in into domain). Clean installation of Win7/W2K8 R2 with integrated sp1 has the same effect. Our domain PDC is running on samba 3.3.7. I'm curious if anyone else has seen this already. Thank you Mikhail Zuskov

I'm curious how others manage their windows 7 machines on a samba 3.x.x domain .. especial the part of policies and scripts. i got the win7 running in the samba domain, but i'm stuck in the policies part.. and i don't want to use nitrobit for this. how do other users do this.. ?! thx, Collen

In the course of upgrading from CentOS 5.4 to CentOS 5.5 I changed from using the samba (v3.0.x) packages to the samba3x (v3.3.8) packages, mostly because the newer version was said to better support Win7. The Samba server services Linux, WinXP, and Win7 clients. Now I get many, many errors logged to the Samba logs shortly after 3:00 AM, but only from the Win7 clients. I get roughly 430

Hi, I have a problem of Access denied to samba server from win7 64bit behind a VPN. the samba server is 3.2.5-4 release on a debian lenny (I will upgrade it soon), member of a win2K AD domain. the win7 PCs are on the same AD domain, they can access to an other samba server witch is very similar (same release, same smb.conf, same VPN config). If I do on a win7 PC: net view \\srvlinux I see:

I am seeing what seems to be a notable limit on read performance of an ext3 filesystem. If anyone could offer some insight it would be helpful. Background: 12 x 500G SATA disks in a Hardware RAID enclosure connected via 2Gb/s FC to a 4 x 2.6 Ghz system with 4GB ram running RHEL4.5. Initially the enclosure was configured RAID5 10+1 parity, although I've also tried RAID 50 and currently RAID 0.

Hi, I have a dell poweredge 850 with centos 4, freshly installed. I'm now trying to add in a fibre -> sata raid enclosure with LSI HBA's in the 850. My problem is the enclosure gets detected first, hijacking sda and sdb from the internal SATA drive and causing kernel panic at boot time. I've tried changing the order in modprobe to the following: alias eth0 tg3 alias eth1

I'm looking at buying a NORCO DS-1220 and it comes with a NORCO 4618 PCI-X card (4 port eSATA, with a port multiplier on the card or the chassis). I've been trying to pin down whether or not CentOS will see all 12 drives, and I haven't seen anything that is definitive. I see that the kernel module sata_sil24 supports the SiI3124 chip on the NORCO 4618 card, but I haven't found

Warren Thanks for the thoughts. Even with 'dmesg', I found nothing. The reboot got rid of the problem and it continues to run perfectly in the same configuration. I, too, have a slight dislike for external USB disks, and much prefer internal drives for esveral reasons: - Internal drives are protected by being inside a tower and thus have less chance of falling or being bumped than
