Re: From analysis of a simple ifstated.conf to more compex example
Preemption is used to ensure that, if a CARP interface goes down on host
A, host B will then assume mastership for all interfaces.
It prevents the nasty situation where you'd have, for example:
Public IP: master on host A
Private IP: master on host B
servers behind firewalls hosts A and B:
- traffic arrives on host A which creates a PF state
- servers reply via their default gateway, the CARP IP now master on host B
Host B doesn't have a state for the traffic, drops it.
To enable preemption you need to run sysctl net.inet.carp.preempt=1 and
add the corresponding line to your sysctls file in etc.

Well,
I am not fully familiar with CARP, but if the different carp interfaces
are used for different purpose (ftp, tftp, scp), is it a good idea to
put down all of them, if they are able to serve their purpose?
BTW, what is CARP preemption and how is it possible to enable it?

What about enabling CARP preemption to ensure that when a carp interface

Hello Damien,
I did read your example but cannot get idea from it.
For three interfaces you have much more possibilities.
Imagine you start the server from uuu state which is equal to
net = '( ifconfig -a -u |grep carp0 /dev/null every 3
ifconfig -a -u
|grep carp1 /dev/null every 3 ifconfig -a -u |grep carp2
/dev/null
every 3)'
Now you put down one carp interface - so system is in state :
*state one:*
(duu) || (udu) || (uud) which is same as !$net
run script1.sh
go to twoff
now imagine, you put down any other carp interface:
*state twoff: *
(dud) || (ddu) || (udd)
run script2.sh
go to two
*state two: *
put all interfaces up
run script3.sh
go to state one
it means, this is one of the possibilities system can behave (this
situation does not describe all possible states - I have taken this
special example.)
Now if you want to put up after putting down one carp interface, you
fail since it is in state twoff.
Only of you put down second carp interface it goes to state two and if
you put both up, it will go to state one.
This is where my ifstated.conf fails to work.

Hello all,
I would like to ask somebody to explain me how the ifstated

I have three virtual carp interfaces carp0,carp1 and carp2.
I try to understand the following setting:
The server is in state one (all carp interfaces are up) and
if there
is carp down of any:
one (carp0 or carp1 or carp2),
two ([carp0 and carp1] or [carp0 and carp2] or [carp1 and
carp2]),
three interfaces (carp 0 and carp1 and carp2), server
runs the script testdown.sh and put the server into state two.
If all carp interfaces are up, the server runs the testup.sh
and set
the state to one.
That is my understanding.
Is it the way the system works?
Or am I wrong?

init-state one
net = '( ifconfig -a -u |grep carp0 /dev/null every 3
ifconfig -a -u

carp2
/dev/null

run /usr/local/testdown.sh
set-state two
}
}
state two {
if ( $net ) {
run /usr/local/testup.sh
set-state one
}
}

Is there any possibility to define and set ifstated.conf that
reacts when:
any one of the carp interfaces is down - followed by
another any
other carp interface down
I tried to define states:
duu =!carp0.link.up carp1.link.up carp2.link.up
udu =carp0.link.up !carp1.link.up carp2.link.up

You could try a few years old (eg 6.* or probably 7.*) FreeBSD CDROM for interest to see if that boots. Is there a way to access the executable files from the CD Question not clear. You can access to read execute all files from CDROM, by using the LIVEFS (live file system) option. To access files on the MS partition[s], If fdisk shows the MS still present you can also mount the MS file systems from BSD (regardless whether BSD is booted running from CD or hard disk) For that you would need either mount -t msdosfs . if its an older FS or mount -t ntfs -r . if its a newer NTFS it only support read only mode, That mount command calls eg /sbin/mount_msdosfs /sbin/mount_ntfs Thats where they are on a hard disc. If FreeBSD hasnt installed yet, you'll find them I recall under something like /mnt2/sbin/mount_msdosfs (I think the cd is already mounted) If you want to write individual files on an MS NTFS you need ntfs-3g which is partly broken (one error noted in my http://berklix.com/~jhs/hardware/laptops/shrink/ a lot easier to run from a hard disk working system. and overwrite windows for my BSD installation?

Since I don't deal with these things every day I thought I ask for some help... :-) Well, the nice thing about ZFS is that it makes dealing with this sort of failure relatively painless. I've already ordered a new drive which will arrive shortly, but I was wondering if someone could guide me through the process of taking out a drive of the pool and replacing it with a new one and keep all the data intact? Ie. - put drive in offline mode - remove drive - insert new drive - whatever needs to set it up - add it to the zpool run OK. First you need to identify the failing drive physically. Do you know which of the drives on your machine is ad1? Kind of important to get this right. Many servers will give you helpful hints by displaying error lights on broken drives, or you may be able to use something like iLO or iDRAC to turn on an indicator LED. Or you may be able to tell by other means. However you do it, be sure about this, as taking out one of the good drives by accident will probably crash your system. Nb. pro-tip: take some small sticky labels to the datacenter with you (the sort you get for those year-planner wall calendars are ideal, but anything will do) and mark the duff drive with them, on the drive caddy before you pull the drive and on the drive itself if you need to reuse the caddy. Now, I can see from your zpool status that you are just using raw disks, so no worries about partitioning or marking anything bootable. If you'ld built the system as described in eg. http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot/RAIDZ1 so you were booting from this zpool, then there would be extra steps needed here, but you haven't so there aren't. So, first take the drive out of the zpool. This will result in the zpool state changing to DEGRADED: # zpool offline files ad1 Now physically extract the drive from the machine and replace it with your brand new one. If this is not a hot-swap system that will involve powering down and application of screwdrivers. If it is a hot-swap system, then you need to ensure the OS recognized the new drive. # dmesg Should show messages about 'ad1' near to the end. # atacontrol list should mention the new drive. To force the new drive to be registered, you could use: # atacontrol reinit ata0 but that will also reset ad0, and runs the risk of disruption of service. It might be better to reboot if the system won't pick up the new drive automatically. Now you can rebuild your zpool: # zpool replace files ad1 You should see instant disk activity, and zpool status will show the drive being resilvered. Eventually status will change to ONLINE. That's it. All done. Btw, rebooting this server is not a problem if needed. That shouldn't be necessary, assuming that you have hot-swap drives.

It looks like others have run into this problem with avahi-app as well:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2011-July/068658.html
A cursory search shows that uninstalling avahi-app then reinstalling
should take care of the compilation failure. Afterward you should be
able to run portmaster as shown in the error message (minus
'net/avahi-app') to finish recompiling the ports that depend on pcre.

Gamin will only provide realtime notification of changes for at most n files,
where n is the minimum value between (kern.maxfiles * 0.7) and
(kern.maxfilesperproc - 200). Beyond that limit, files will be polled.
If you often open several large folders with Nautilus, you might want to
increase the kern.maxfiles tunable (you do not need to set
kern.maxfilesperproc, since it is computed at boot time from kern.maxfiles).
For a typical desktop, add the following line to /boot/loader.conf, then
reboot the system:
kern.maxfiles=25000
The behavior of gamin can be controlled via the various gaminrc files.
See http://www.gnome.org/~veillard/gamin/config.html on how to create
these files. In particular, if you find gam_server is taking up too much
CPU time polling for changes, something like the following may help
in one of the gaminrc files:
# reduce polling frequency to once per 10 seconds
# for UFS file systems in order to lower CPU load
fsset ufs poll 10

I created an ISO Boot CD on another computer and installed it and made sure to set the BIOS to boot from CD, to no avail. There's 2 types of PC boot CDs I believe, FreeBSD changed to the newer method in last year or so I think (maybe just for 8.* ?), so if yours is an older PC it might be looking for the other sort. You could try a few years old (eg 6.* or probably 7.*) FreeBSD CDROM for interest to see if that boots. Is there a way to access the executable files from the CD Question not clear. You can access to read execute all files from CDROM, by using the LIVEFS (live file system) option. To access files on the MS partition[s], If fdisk shows the MS still present you can also mount the MS file systems from BSD (regardless whether BSD is booted running from CD or hard disk) For that you would need either mount -t msdosfs . if its an older FS or mount -t ntfs -r . if its a newer NTFS it only support read only mode, That mount command calls eg /sbin/mount_msdosfs /sbin/mount_ntfs Thats where they are on a hard disc. If FreeBSD hasnt installed yet, you'll find them I recall under something like /mnt2/sbin/mount_msdosfs (I think the cd is already mounted) If you want to write individual files on an MS NTFS you need ntfs-3g which is partly broken (one error noted in my http://berklix.com/~jhs/hardware/laptops/shrink/ a lot easier to run from a hard disk working system. and overwrite windows for my BSD installation?

Re: Technical Support Question
Thanks for your reply. The boot CD will boot on the other machine, but not on the computer for my intended install of BSD. I set the boot order to boot first from CD ROM in phoenix BIOS. It is a Samsung Laptop it is windows 7 home edition I called Samsung and they have no information on overriding a windows password only restoring to an older version which got my here in the first place. There is a prompt at Startup stating press any key to boot from CD. Pressing any key only leads to that same screen in windows asking for the password, except for the function keys that lead to BIOS configuration. Am tempted to remove the drive and insert a new one, not sure as there is memory on the drive available and nothing really wrong with it. Cant imagine there is not a fix somewhere. Any other ideas?

Re: Technical Support Question
Am tempted to remove the drive and insert a new one, not sure as there is memory on the drive available and nothing really wrong with it. I suggest temporarily disconnect data cable of old disc, (no need to unscrew it replace with another hard disc yet), Then push reset, see if the raw PC + BIOS is capable of reading booting the FreeBSD CD with No hard disc. If PC still cant boot the FreeBSD CD, see if PC can boot some/any other bootable CD eg another BSD Linux MS whatever, any CD been proved bootable on other machines. Take it small step by step, decouple the questions can that PC read any cdroms can that PC read that particular cdrom can that PC boot from cdroms can that PC boot from that particular cdroms does the BIOS correctly use the specified boot order or ignore it. Some BIOSES are weird, / cussid. I think I met one where if one didnt tell it to boot off floppy it would not boot off cd either, or similar.) I certainly met one where PC just wouldnt work right after I reviewed set every damn option on every page. Then I reset to boot defaults (slow) then to defaults optimised, then I reset every option as I wanted it, then the PC worked fine. What that told me is that BIOS in its default reset, was resetting some values that it then never l;ater displayed in its menus.

Adobe Linux Flash
Hello All, I am trying to get the Adobe Linux Flash working with Firefox. I have followed the directions in the browser handbook section. -kldstat shows linux.ko, and linprocfs.ko. -df lists linprocfs mounted on /compat/linux/proc I created the symlink from libflashplayer.so to the browser_plugins location, and the symlink is listed. Doing some searching on the problem I came across a mention that the /compat directory needs to be symlinked to /usr/compat so I added that in. I ran the nspluginwrapper command it searches the correct directories but does complain of ELF interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2 not found several times. The IceadTea-Web Plugin and the Swfdec plugin is listed in Firefox's About:Plugins page. In fact I can see the swfdec-plugin alongside the libflashplayer.so and the npwrapper.libflashplayer.so in the /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins directory. The system itself, a fresh install of FreeBSD 9 amd64. Might it be the 64 bit would be causing problems?

First things first. 1) DOUBLE CHECK the CD you're trying to boot from. Make sure it boots in the other machine, *and* what O/S it boots into. 2) Go into the BIOS settings on the Samsung -- look at _all_ the settings. especially for the 'boot device' list. Make sure you are *not* trying to boot from a 'recovery partition', or 'installation disk' choice. Better yet, tell us _exactly_ how all the boot device options read, IN the order they are displayed. 3) IF you can, _remove_ the hard disk from the list of boot devices. If not, *disable* the IDE device probing/disk type for the disks, but leave the CD drive active.. 4) now try booting -without- a CD in the drive. The 'desired outcome' is a '*failure* to boot' message -- with a fair chance that it will ask you to insert a bootable disk and retry. 5) If it gives a retry option, put the CD in the drive and do what it says to retry. If no retry option, put the CD in the drive, and give it the well known three-finger salute. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I will remove it if you think it will help with troubleshooting? I don't think it will change much, as they will both simply show up in the about:plugins. Problem, I think lies, in the symlink. You don't need it, kill it and run nspluginwrapper - the only flash file in your browser plugins directory should be prefixed with npwrapper. There may be an issue with nspluginwrapper (currently being discussed - can anyone confirm if its similar?) that has to resolved. Just to check, can you run `find /usr/local/ | grep ld-linux.so` and see if it comes up? It could show ld-linux.so or the same followed by a number.

Re: Adobe Linux Flash

I have followed the directions in the browser handbook section. -kldstat shows linux.ko, and linprocfs.ko. -df lists linprocfs mounted on /compat/linux/proc I created the symlink from libflashplayer.so to the browser_plugins location, and the symlink is listed. Hm, I've just checked up The Handbook, Section 7.2.3. And should note that I've never created a link to пуе flash plugin working. Is this step really needed? Doing some searching on the problem I came across a mention that the /compat directory needs to be symlinked to /usr/compat so I added that in. I ran the nspluginwrapper command it searches the correct directories but does complain of ELF interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2 not found several times. The IceadTea-Web Plugin and the Swfdec plugin is listed in Firefox's About:Plugins page. In fact I can see the swfdec-plugin alongside the libflashplayer.so and the npwrapper.libflashplayer.so in the /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins directory. The system itself, a fresh install of FreeBSD 9 amd64. Might it be the 64 bit would be causing problems? -- WBR, Boris Samorodov (bsam) FreeBSD Committer, http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
