[CentOS] Replacement for Intel SDS2 Motherboard
Alle, We have recently had one of our office servers go south. The hardware was an Intel SDS2 motherboard (EATX), Dual Intel PIII 1.4GHz FC-PGA2-L2 512KB, 3GB (6x512MB) 168 pin DIMM, SDRAM 133MHz/PC-133-ECC with 1x3Ware 7006-2 and 2x3Ware 7506-4LP RAID controllers. The OS was RHEL3. Apparently, according to the beep codes, there has been an FRB failure. I've migrated most of the services (mail,web,proxy,samba,mysql,mailman,home directories) to an interim box running CentOS 5.2. At a minimum, I need to replace the motherboard and CPUS (I'm told they are unrecoverable). All the remaining hardware I plan to re-use, as well as moving from RHEL to CentOS. Does anyone have any recommendations on replacement motherboards with CentOS 5.2 in mind, along with the re-usable hardware requirements? Best Regards, Camron -- Camron W.

The S2927G2NR is $200.00, the S3979G2NR-RS is $150.00 Both have more than what he is looking for... john John R Pierce wrote: John Plemons wrote: What case form factor are you looking for, I may have a new IBM under warranty that I can sell to you for what you are looking to spend... All Xeons he's got 3 raid cards in his current server. 1 x 3Ware 7006-2 - PCI 32bit 66MHz (probably fits in a PCI-X slow?) - 2 x ATA/133 2 x 3Ware 7506-4LP - PCI 64bit 66Mhz (PCI-X?) - 4 x ATA 133 which he says he needs to keep. so this implies he has up to 10 IDE drives in this system. few if any newer server cases would support this sort of storage configuration. It also implies he needs 3 x PCI-X slots, most newer servers have gone to PCI-Express X4 or X8 slots for these purposes. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos No virus found in this incoming message.

And though I appreciate the advice, you are preaching to the choir. This is not my choice, nor is it my decision. I'm just doing the leg work. your existing 5+ year old 10 ATA drives are likely only a few 100GB or so total, organized as at least 3 seperate raids ? (raids can't span controllers). Actually, 1 x 500GB (500GB/RAID0), 2 x 1.5TB (RAID5). Best Regards, Camron Camron W. Fox Hilo Office High Performance Computing Group Fujitsu Management Services of America, Inc.

Re: [CentOS] OT: Setting a CentOS to gateway a private IP address

Have you enabled ip forwarding and checked your iptables ruleset to make sure that either the default policy is ACCEPT or that you have specific rules in there that allow forwarding?

To be sure that the firewall was not the source of trouble I temporarily turned it off and observed no change in behaviour from that previously reported. Another correspondent pointed out that I may need to run routed to propagate the routing information from the host to the network. Or apply static routes on the other network - or NAT to the connecting interface address on the way out. -- Les Mikesell [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Can you provide me some kickstart file or something else which can help me in making a final thing. I do not need eye candies/OpenOffice/Adobe flash/Games/Media Player etc. Just a usable desktop, a lightweight file browser and desktop with icons (may be XFE). Redundant locale, man, doc, /lib/modules etc. will be removed as well. Take a look at the CentOS-5.2 LiveCD - thats a good place to start, Can you work with that ? Its got a fully functional gnome desktop with a lot of other things that you can get rid of if you dont need. I've seen usable CentOS + Gnome desktops running from a 480MB squashfs store. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] strict memory
2008/10/17 Mag Gam [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi John: Well, we run a lot of statistical analysis and our code loads a lot of data into a vector for fast calculations. I am not sure how else to do these calculations fast without loading it into memory. Thats why we have to do it this way. About 15 years ago I changed an application on SGI IRIX from using text files scanf(3)'ed into memory (with floating point numbers in them) to binary files mmap(2)'ed into memory. Processing time was cut down by over 95% and did much more in the 5% left (e.g. allow interactive real-time viewing of different frames of data). Using mmap'ed files means that the system will know that these pages are backed by blocks on the file system and therefore it won't take up so much buffer space which needs to be writen out into the swap partition whenever the memory buffer is needed for something else, only disk cache space which can be just freed if the buffer was only read. You can also benefit if multiple processes access same file - they'll share the buffer in memory too. It's not a silver bullet, there are still issues with too random access causing the system the thrash, but at least it won't take up so much swappable memory, it'll save lots of copying (file-kernel-user when reading and the other way around when writing), system calls etc. If you can process data in sequential order and possibly with help of madvise(2) you can probably squeeze out even more from this option. --Amos ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
