Hello, I have two identical directories and when I run an rsync --dry-run on them rsync wants to transfer all the files from the source directory to the target directory. I verified some files in both directories with 'ls -l' and the output is the same which, if I understand correctly, means that rsync should not include the file in the list of files to transfer. I also did an md5

Hi, We are running into a problem with a Samba setup and would like to know if a current fix or workaround is at all possible. Our setup is a NetApp filer serving NFS v4 that is mounted by Solaris and Linux servers. On those servers we are using Samba to create shares of those NFSv4 mounted filesystems. We are migrating to this NFSv4 setup from an existing Solaris NFSv3+Posix ACL setup that also

Hi all, I tried last week to do traffic shaping on a production system, object of the exercise was simply to throttle the outgoing traffic. tc qdisc add dev eth4 root tbf rate 300mbit burst 300kb latency 50ms But the server became rather instable, crashing repeatedly without anything in the logs. Can anybody spot glaring mistakes in the tc command above, or tell me what I should have done

Hi all! Just a word of warning: after updating a few of our x86_64 based web frontend boxes to the new kernel, we began to get weird MySQL timeouts. The problem went away again when we downgraded to the previous kernel-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64.rpm regards, Bent Terp

Forgive my resending this post. To data I have received only one response (thank you Bert Gunter), and I still do not have an answer to my question.

I can get contrasts to work for a model without interaction, but not after adding the

What would you recommend for filesystems in the 50-500 terabyte range? (And yes, we do actually run a 70 TB at the moment, so I'm not asking just to annoy you; I'm genuinely

In the last 4 years of using SAM-FS/QFS I have fallen in love with this product. I have tried earlier to ask Sun to incorporate features into this product but in vain. Do you think the following is worth exploring and in-corporating: 1. Unlike ZFS SAM-FS/QFS File system need "compression" feature turned on with ''setfa''. I understand that''s a whole lot of

Hi! I would need an advice from those that use IB (as admins :) ) i have a choice between : 1. Mellanox InfiniHost? III Lx HCA card, single-port CX4, DDR, PCIe x8, mem-free, tall bracket, RoHS R5 2. QLogic Single Port 20 Gb InfiniBand to x16 PCI Express Adapter (Single Pack) aside the price is there anything else that could help me make a discrimination between this two? (these will be used in

Can anyone point me at a yum repository containing a CentOS 5 version of bacula? thanks -- Kevin Thorpe

Hi all! Maybe I'm just being silly here, but I'm wondering if anybody has ever used their computer for sharing files over USB. That is, the computer pretends to be a USB mass storage device. This could be useful for connecting to media players and such that support you plugging a USB harddrive or memory stick. Surely, somebody must have thought of this before :-D regards, Bent

I have a 10 blade cluster of just hardware - I can install what I want, how I want. ? What options are there if I wanted to build the 10 blades as one large beast, but _NOT_ necessarily for someone doing grid-type work? ? ?Some users don't now how to program that way, but they'd like to have their program run on something that acts like a single processor, but a massive single processor

Hi all, we're looking at future storage technologies and possibilities to use open source software. One thing that looks very promising already is samba clustering with ctdb. However, if we replace all file servers with a single samba cluster, that cluster needs a lot of storage space. A large SAN would do, but using fast disks for all of the storage is quite expensive. Using a mix of cheap

Hi, I’ve tried to find a general approach to my problem without any success, although this might very well be due to my inexperience with R help resources (and statistics in general). My general problem is a straightforward 2 by 2 table (“Belonging to the upper quartile” vs “not-belonging to the upper quartile”, intervention vs non-intervention), but with a random effect addressing the

So I setup ssh on a server so I could do some work from home and I think the second I opened it every sorry monkey from around the world has been trying every account name imaginable to get into the system. What's a good way to deal with this?

Hi there, I am pricing out a dell 840 (low end file server) that will run latest centos. Can anyone recommend a good tape drive/card combo with centos? The drives (to be backed up) in it will be a raid 0 - 500gb. Thanks in advance! Dustin

Hi all, Being recently new to Samba. I want to know what some of you consider a really good tape backup. And, what software to run it with. I want to be able to offer customers daily full backups that the restores will work well with Samba. My understanding is smbtar only uses tar. Is there something even web based I can use.
