Hi, Currently we are running CentOS 4.x on a 2-way Opteron machine. This machine, through a SCSI host adapter (Adaptec), is connected to a 2TB storage unit (an external RAID-5 disk array) Until our recent unintentional power trip, everything was fine and smooth. We have been experiencing complication accessing the storage ( it could be either intermittent filesystem error, partition could not be

Hi, We have a few PC with CentOS 4 installed. By default, it runs to runlevel 5, which displays the GDM. I'm just wondering, how do I actually make the GDM to start GNOME automatically (after a successful login) for all normal user account without having to add 'exec gnome-session' in every user's ~/.xinitrc? The current scenario is, only successful 'root' logins starts

Hi all, We are running CentOS 5.2 64bit as our file server. Currently, we used GFS (with CLVM underneath it) as our filesystem (for our multiple 2TB SAN volume exports) since we plan to add more file servers (serving the same contents) later on. The issue we are facing at the moment is we found out that command such as 'ls' gives a very slow response.(e.g 3-4minutes for the outputs of ls

Hi all, Sorry for the offtopic question. I hope though that others on this list or reading the archive find the answers useful too. It seems the Adaptec 1405 4port SAS HBA I bought only works with RHEL and SuSE through a closed source driver, and thus is quite useless :-( I was stupid enought to think "Works with RHEL and SuSE" meant "Certified for RHEL and SuSE, but driver in

Hi, For some time now (starting with the 3.10 or 3.11 kernels, but I'm not sure) I have the following problem: I have a machine with 6 SATA slots and two SAS controllers, one onboard HBA and one RAID controller in a PCIe slot. The problem is that the order of the SAS controllers changes randomly after a reboot, so the SCSI addresses of the devices change. One time lsscsi prints (empty

Hello, does CentOs 5 supports an Adaptec AHA-2940W/2940UW scsi controller (pci)? Is this controller maybe supported by the aic7xxx driver? I want to install CentOS 5 on my desktop pc but the currently installed pci scsi controller for my scanners (drivers: 2x tmscsim, 1x advansys) are not supported by CentOS. So I am searching for something else. Thanks in advanced. regards Olaf

I have an IDE based PC running Linux/CentOS4 to which I wish to attach a scsi dlt. The host controller is an Adaptec AHA3940 something that lspci reports as: SCSI storage controller: Initio Corporation 360P (rev 02). I would like to have the system load the driver for this adapter at boot but I have two problems: 1. I am not sure which driver to use; and 2. I do not know how to force

Does anyone have any good or bad driver/performance/stability experiences with either: LSI Logic LSIU320 Adaptec 29320ALP-R or (or other current boards using the same driver) in Opteron servers running RHEL 4 or CentOS 4, x86_64? Thanks in advance. -- Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened

CentOS 4.6 Hi All: I am now officially stumped. I have tried everything that can think of and I have googled until I am blue in the face and tried just about everything that I could find that looked the least bit like it might apply and still no (or at least partial) joy. I am going to cram as much information into this email as I can and hope that someone out there can either tell me what I am

I have a Supermicro SuperServer 6025B-3V with their X7DB3 mobo. It has an onboard Adaptec SAS RAID controller and has been configured as a RAID1 with two Seagate Cheetah 15k.4 disks. Original attempts at installing CentOS4.4 x86_64 appeared to load the aic94xx driver, but then reported something like "No hard drives found...". I grabbed the x86_64 aacraid driver disk from Adaptec

Hi there, I have one server acting as a iscsi target running windows storage server r2 sp2 and the other server is running centos as an initiator. They are connected to a switch over a 1Gbit ethernet connection. the target is a Dell NF600 and the server running centos is a Poweredge R900. We want to move this configuration to a FC based installation using a Dell QLE2462 HBA (this is the hba we can

Hi, We've got a setup here with a samba server in front of a fibrechannel array. It's a pretty vanilla samba setup exporting an xfs filesystem. The box is an opteron 265 with 4G RAM and a QLogic QLA2312 HBA running SLES9. We can dd an 8G file to a share from a windows workstation in just over 2 minutes (about 65MB/s) and dd back in about 4 minutes. Local disk performance in the machine

Hi Team, Is there any body got any experience on setting up a virtualized environment in which the vm's can access a fiber channel SAN storage connected to host? the host access the SAN through its own HBA, but the hba is not recognized inside the virtual machines. Please let me know the step to go through this. Regards -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was

I have an Adaptec 392320 Ultra320 SCSI adapter. I am running x86_64 SLES9 SP3. When I build x86_64 Xen with just the 2.6-xen kernel + initrd, I am getting the following error on the module load. But if I go back to building separate xenU and xen0 kernels without initrd the device works without any issues. Any idea what is going wrong here? Am I leaving something out of my initrd? Here is the

Is anyone running either the newish Adaptec 5805 or the new LSI (3ware) 9750 sas raid controllers in a production environment with Centos 5.3/5.4? The low price of these cards makes me suspicious, compared to the more expensive pre-merger 3ware cards and considerably more expensive Areca ARC-1680. I've been 'burned' by the low cost of Promise raid cards (just as this group pointed

Hello, is anybody using this controller with opensolaris/snv ? http://www.adaptec.com/de-DE/products/Controllers/Hardware/sas/entry/SAS-2405/ does it run out of the box ? how does it perform with zfs? (especially when using it for zfs/nfs esx setup) the driver from adaptec is for solaris 10 u4. If it does not work out of the box, can i use that driver with opensolaris/snv ? thanks roland --
