Everything works fine until I pull a drive. The system locks up when I try to run any command e.g. zpool status. There is no communication with the server from then on. It does not even respond to pings. >

First of all: I''m very new to Opensolaris. After reading a lot, I''m mostly interested in the autoreplace function of zfs. I''ve got a Sun Fire X2100 M2 and now run Opensolaris on it. I''ve created a mirror in the rpool pool of 2 sata drives. I''ve also enable the autoreplace function of that pool in zfs. When the pool is up and running, and I physically

Hi all, I changed a bad disk (automaticly disabled from software raid1 and system for I/O error) in one of our servers and now have problem with adding new one to system without reboot. Does anybody have an experience with this? Or is it possible? :) We're using hotswap AXX6DRV3G for 6 SATA disks from Intel connected directly to MB (S5520HC from Intel too). There is AHCI as driver (enabled in

Hi!, this issue makes me crazy. I read a lot of docs, also * mailling list and I try a lot of things without success. Any help will be appreciated. Here is the info: Hardware: -------------------------------------------- Supermicro Server with motherboard X7DB8, chipset Intel 5000P, Xeon 5050 Digium TE110P Software --------------------------------------------- Asterisk version 1.2.12.1

Hi list, I'm having one of those 'I'm stupid' -problems with LVM on CentOS 5.2. I've been working with traditional partitions until now, but I've finally been sold on the theoretical benefits of using LVM, but for now I only have a huge pile of broken filesystems to show for my efforts. My scenario; I attach a disk, either over USB or iSCSI. I create a PV on this

I?ve read various stories about the Asterisk SCCP implementation. Some say it works fine, others say it doesn?t ? stick with a SIP phone! My dilemma is that I?d like a WI-FI phone with multi-line capability, and so far Ciscos 7920 is the only one I?ve found. The disadvantage is that it cannot be upgraded to support the SIP-protocol, so if I purchase such a phone I am stuck with the SCCP.

I know that this has been well-discussed already, but it''s been a few months - WD caviars with mpt/mpt_sas generating lots of retryable read errors, spitting out lots of beloved " Log info 31080000 received for target" messages, and just generally not working right. (SM 836EL1 and 836TQ chassis - though I have several variations on theme depending on date of purchase: 836EL2s,

I have two 500 GB drives on my system that are attached to built-in SATA ports on my Asus M4A785-M motherboard, running in AHCI mode. If I shut down the system, remove either drive, and then try to boot the system, it will fail to boot. If I disable the splash screen, I find that it will display the SunOS banner and the hostname, but it never gets as far as the "Reading ZFS config:"

Hello everyone, This is not directly related to CentOS but still: we are trying to set up some storage servers to run under Linux - most likely CentOS. The storage volume would be in the range specified: 8-15 TB. Any recommendations as far as hardware? Thanks. Boris. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi I'm debugging why echo cancellation does not work in my app using the DUMP_ECHO_CANCEL_DATA flag.

Hello all. I was hoping someone out there might have some advice or suggestions regarding an upgrade from an archaic Asterisk version. I've been given the daunting task of upgrading a very old Asterisk-1.0.x install to a recent LTS version. I'll also need the install to have high-availability and failover support. From my research, it would appear that AsteriskNOW-3.0 might be my

I have 3 disks that I want to setup in a raid 1, my questions is should I setup the 3rd disk as a spare-disk or should I mirror all 3 disks all the time? Will it perform *much* better to only mirror two and have the 3rd as a spare. Is it not safer to mirror all 3 drives all the time ?

I need a SATA RAID PCI card that works well with CentOS and is fully supported. Mandatory features: - works with the drivers already in the kernel, no additional drivers - can do RAID 0, 1 and 5 - hotswap - allows to monitor the status of the array and of each individual drive via a script (ideally run from cron) - works with very large SATA drives Nice to have features but not mandatory: -

Hi, I have been trying to install CentOS 5.4 on a Intel SR1530SHS, Intel S3200SH mainboard.. It has a 3 x 1TB sata hotswap drives with LSI software raid onboard. I had configured the LSI to have Sata0 and Sata1 with raid 1 and the third drive as a hotspare drive. Format the harddisk and installation was a breeze. The server rebooted into a blank screen and the cursor just keep blinking. Please

We're going to replace an older Solaris7/Netbackup/TapeRobot server with a new Centos box using backup-to-disk-to-tape (probably using Arkeia). The specs are up in the air, but generally: - CentOS/RHEL friendly (3Ware SATA? SCSI?) - 2U/3U/4U-ish form factor - hotswap RAID5 - dual PS, hotswap a plus - USB2.0 port(s) (*) To give you an idea of where I'm starting to look, take a gander at

From: Rodrigo Barbosa <rodrigob at suespammers.org> > Btw, don't quote me on this one :) > I'm only 90% sure of the hotswapping capabilities, and less than 50% > sure about the price :) There _are_ systems with hot-swap CPUs, memory and/or, PCI[-X] slots. They are _not_ commodity and pricey, and require OS-level support. In fact, I believe Linux 2.6 has some support for

I''ve lucked into some big disks, so I''m thinking of biting the bullet (screaming loudly in the process) and superceding the SATA controllers on my motherboard with something that will work with hot-swap in Solaris. (did I mention before I''m still pissed about this?) I have enough to populate all 8 bays (meaning adding 4 disks to what I have now), so the 6 ports on the

Hey, anyone using an LSI MegaRAID experienced "disappearing drives"...? We installed 6 new C6 servers, each with a Supermicro SMC2108 (LSI MegaRAID) controllers and 3 PX-128M5Pro SSDs ( RAID1 + hostswap). 2 weeks (and almost no activity on it, since not in production, apart from installation) later, megacli sees (based on the slot numbers): - on one server: only the 2nd disk of the RAID

I have a raidz2 pool with one disk that seems to be going bad, several errors are noted in iostat. I have an RMA for the drive, however - no I am wondering how I proceed. I need to send the drive in and then they will send me one back. If I had the drive on hand, I could do a zpool replace. Do I do a zpool offline? zpool detach? Once I get the drive back and put it in the same drive bay..

Hi all, I would like to knwon if with ZFS it''s possible to do something like that : http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/removeadisk.html meaning : I have a zpool with 48 disks with 4 raidz2 (12 disk). Inside those 48 disk I''ve 36x 3T and 12 x 2T. Can I buy new 12x4 To disk put in the server, add in the zpool, ask zpool to migrate all data on those 12 old disk on the new and
