Hi, I'm having trouble benchmarking disk i/o in my vm's. The data I get seems bogus. I have two centos 6 guests which use a raw image as volume. Each volume is stored on its own physical disk and both disks are the same model. The host system is fedora 15 with the virt-preview repo enabled. The disks for the guests use virtio and caching is set to none. My problem is that I get very

Hi list, is there any working solution for deduplication of data for centos? We are trying to find a solution for our backup server which runs a bash script invoking xdelta(3). But having this functionality in fs is much more friendly... We have looked into lessfs, sdfs and ddar. Are these filesystems ready to use (on centos)? ddar is sthg different, I know. Thx Rainer

Hi, am using latest C6 on a Dell GX270 with latest Bios.

We are experiencing some packet loss between xen machines which we haven't seen before. Is this a problem anyone's run into before and/or has ideas on how to diagnose the issue? The setup is CentOS 5 xen-3.0.3-80.el5_3.3 Aaron -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi, Kopete does not show any contact in ICQ... Will there be fixes for this? Or do I have to wait for kde-redhat to support centos5? Thx Rainer

Hi List, I'm looking for an editor with file compare capabilities. Gedit and kate don't seem to do this? Thx Rainer

Maybe, it's stupid question but I've just installed CentOS5 and when I'm going to edit some of my conf files I see no colors as it did in old CentOS4x... I'm using: [root at domian:~]$ echo $TERM xterm Thanks in advance, Regards, Israel

Hi List, hope this is not too offtopic, but this bothers me and my backup. My backups are tar jobs in cron, eg: 20 23 * * * tar -zcf /mnt/backupInternalHosts/backup/backup.tar.gz /etc /root /home && touch /tmp/state_backup-backup This always sends me an unwanted email with: tar: Removing leading `/' from member names I consider this a bug because this informal message is

It would be very nice to be able to rsync the raw data content of, e.g., a non-mounted disk partition, particularly in combination with --inplace. Our reality: several dual-boot machines running Windows during the day and Linux at night, during backups. Windows is very tedious and iffy to re-reinstall without a raw disk image to start from. Disks fail, and the ensuing downtime must be

This miscellaneous patch adds bindings for: - ntfsfix - ntfsclone - ntfslabel and unifies filesystem label setting through a single API 'set-label' which replaces 'set-e2label' and is also able to set labels on NTFS using the ntfslabel program. 'ntfsfix' has been added as a possible way to fix RHBZ#797760. However I have not found a way to fully fix this bug. See

Hi all, I have followed the wiki howto to install KVM on my C5 server with a F10 x86_64 guest. Howto here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/KVM With one small problem here: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=74275&topic_id=19726 the guest is really running stable for one week now. Maybe someone could have a look at udev why it always sets permission for /dev/net/tun

Hi, I am running C6.5 64bit on an USB stick connected to a HP DL360G7; It is usually an ESXi host but eg for firmware updates (not available on SPP) I use this local installation. Problem are the lags and unresponsiveness we are seeing for example when running yum update in the installation phase. The whole system stalls but there is no io in vmstat. From what google tells us, this is a

Hi, to prevent scripted dictionary attacks to sshd I applied those iptables rules: -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 22 -m recent --update --seconds 60 --hitcount 4 --name SSH --rsource -j DROP -A INPUT -p tcp -m state --state NEW -m tcp --dport 22 -m recent --set --name SSH --rsource And this is part of logwatch: sshd: Authentication Failures: unknown

Hi, I know, epel has rt3 in version 3.6.x. And - sadly - for version 3.8.x the perl module dependencies are way ahead of what I can find in epel or rpmforge. But we really need some of the 3.8.x series features. So has anybody maybe built those modules + rt3 v3.8.x for C5? Any hint? I really do not want to install f10. :O Thx Rainer

I have a Windows 2000 domU running in an LVM partition. I need to move it to another host, but none of my other xen servers have lvm or free space to create an lvm. So I''d like to convert it to a sparse img file. The file system in the domU is ntfs. Can anyone suggest how to do this?

Dear all, will there be a fastrack channel for C5? What are the problems inventing one? Thx Rainer
