Hello All, I have few questions around our use of ocfs1/2 for archive logs on 10G RAC. Is there an article out there describing why fragmentation is a special concern for ocfs1/2? Are there ways to remove fragmentation short of rebuilding the fs? Is there a way to estimate how often we will need to rebuild the fs? Any special tools/packages available to handle this issue? Regards, Pradeep.

Another question. When my database is running, I do [oracle@LNCSTRTLDB03 LPTE3]$ cp --o_direct xdb01.dbf /tmp cp: cannot open `xdb01.dbf' for reading: Permission denied [oracle@LNCSTRTLDB03 LPTE3]$ When the database is shudown it works. Is this normal for ocfs because with any other filesystem I can just copy a file at any time (Its only a testing, I know I cant copy datafiles and have

Hello, I just need a little clarification regarding applying the ext3 patch to the latest kernel. I have 2.4.7-10 that came with RH 7.2. I have ext3 running. I need to upgrade those (to get some USB device working). So I got the latest kernel, 2.4.14, patched it with the ext3-2.4-0.9.15-2414 patch, picked ext3 from 'make xconfig', built the kernel, but the new stuff in /boot, etc.,

We just installed a new cluster with 6 HP DL380g5, dual single port Qlogic 24xx HBAs connected via two HP 4/16 Storageworks switches to a 3Par S400. We are using the 3Par recommended config for the Qlogic driver and device-mapper-multipath giving us 4 paths to the SAN. We do see some SCSI errors where DM-MP is failing a path after get a 0x2000 error from the SAN controller, but the path gets puts

I have been a user of OCFS2 for quite some time now (2 years or so) and a user of Oracle RAC for several years as well. My usage of these two is completely independent though, the cluster filesystem is for application level usage (web servers, etc.) only because RAC can manage its own shared storage directly. And that brings me to my observation/question... I keep seeing a lot of messages

I am still having this weird problem with nodes hanging while I'm running OCFS. I'm using OCFS 1.0.9-12 and RHAS 2.1 I've been working on tracking it down and here's what I've got so far: 1. I create a file from node 0. This succeeds; I can /bin/cat the file, append, edit, or whatever. 2. From node 1, I do an operation that accesses the DirNode (e.g. /bin/ls) 3. Node 0

I am running mongrel-0.3.13.1. Have used lighty and fcgi in the past, and I must say that apache-2.0.x proxying to mongrel is much nicer to deal with! I am having this problem, however.

When I try to play NBA Live 2004 with my joystick, it works for a few minutes before pooping out and not controlling the game. However, when I exit the game and test the joystick, it still works, so I know it isn't the joystick (at least, I'm pretty sure). The keyboard is screwed up from the start, but I don't need answers to both of the problems, only the joystick. Has anyone had this

I've installed CentOS 4.6 on a Celestica IYA210 1U server. Configuration is 2GB PC2100 ECC, dual 1.4GHz Itanium 2 cpus, and various hard drives. The installer works great on 18GB, 36GB, and 73GB drives, however when I install to a 73GB drive there seems to be no functional /boot/efi that the system can map. Is this a system specific issue that I should ask about somewhere else? I'm

Hi, Last night I could dial *8 and pickup a call that was ringing to another phone. This morning, I searched on the Web for a solution to mixed up digits when dialing on a Polycom Soundpoint 501. I found that if you go to the SIP page on the phone's >Web interface and change the "Digitmap Impossible Match" setting from "0" to "2" that fixes the mixed up/eaten
