Just for the record, dealing with a bug that made the raid hang, found
a workaround that also gave me performance boost: "echo 4096 >
/sys/block/md2/md/stripe_cache_size"

Result:

mainwks:~ # dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k count=1000 of=/datos/test
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
1048576000 bytes (1,0 GB) copied, 6,78341 s, 155 MB/s

mainwks:~ # rm /datos/test

mainwks:~ # dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024k count=2 of=/datos/test

2+0 records out

Well, seems to be a know bug, hope the patch makes it to the opensuse kernel.

[opensuse] RAID5 hangs

2008-01-29 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi, I was happy copying over my data to a new array of 4x500GB and it
just freezes after copying some data, is like the process is wainting
for a I/O operation to finish. There are no errors in the process or
/var/log/messages.

Controller: Nvidia onboard SATA controller
HDD: 4x500GB Samsung SATA2
OS: OpenSUSE [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Layout: XFS over LVM2 over Linux MD raid5
Command: tar cf- * |tar -C /datos -xvf -

Also, when it hangs, there's no heavy CPU utilization anymore.

parameters as soon as i get home. I'm using md raid5 on a motherboard

Hi, reporting back :D
Unlukily i couldn't get enought disk space in my workstation to
install a VM and copy over all the production datafiles to test a
direct upgrade. Two weeks ago one of our replicated 4.1 servers
crashed and couldn't recover the datafiles, so last night I wiped the
DB filesystem and started from scratch.

Succesfully installed the 5.1 packages from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/database:/mysql51/SLES_9/x86_64/
and i'm currently restoring from a DB dump. Would be great just to
start with the binary files though...

I'll report any issue.

Ciro

[opensuse] Easy backup for home users

2008-01-19 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi, wouldn't it be a nice idea to include a tool similar to the Time
Machine feature from OSX in Opensuse?, is there any project about
that?.

Home users would be really happy to recover a snapshot of a file they
deleted accidentaly. I know there's rsync (I use it myself), but i'm
talking about easy of use.

There are some projects already working like Flyback and TimeVault.

I love reiserfs (when not used with big files), all the SLES servers

Thanks, decode-dimms.pl does the work, mostly, i can get the timings

But the functionality is there!

There's mondo, written by a guy working for HP. It's not fast but i
will restore your system to the point it was before the failure. A
good approach would be to use mondo to backup de system exclusively
and use the other available tools to backup raw data (/home,

I know it's logically a partition/disk, but the important bit there is
"logically", a real partition won't melt down or break into multiple
unusable peaces.

That's what i'm talking about, i wonder if that has a performance
penalty. This is the result of the last power outage:

mainwks:~ # cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1] [raid0] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] [linear]
md0 : active raid1 sda1[0] sdb1[1]
  104320 blocks [2/2] [UU]

md1 : active raid1 sda3[0] sdb3[1]
  241987008 blocks [2/2] [UU]
  [==>..]  resync = 11.0% (26760192/241987008)
finish=315.0min speed=11384K/sec

I assume that would look really nasty on a big raid5...

Well, i'm not talking about a phisical failure, but logical failure of
the array, the kind of failure that would require a rebuild of the
array...

[opensuse] RAID5 & Power outages

2007-10-25 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Anybody has experience with linux Raid5 and power outages?, i
currently have two 250GB disks in a RAID1 array in my main
workstation. When there's any power outage the array is rebuilt but
given it's a mirror it's not a major issue.

Now i would like to add 4 500GB disks in a secondary array with raid5
but i'm afraid i would lose the array if there's any outage (have to
mention a UPS in my letter to Santa)

Anybody knows if the raid5 (md) would survive this scenario?

Ciro

That doesn't apply to reiserfs, it does to ext3 and ufs for example
but you can set the reserved percentage to 0 (with tune2fs on ext3).
And about the inodes, the total quantity is not defined at the fs
creation time.

[opensuse] Card Reader Recommendation

2007-10-20 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi,

I'm looking for a memoery card reader (capable of reading xD) with IDE
interface, the idea is that it takes the place that usually uses a
floppy drive and that works with linux. I don't have currently free
usb ports.

Anybody seen this weird specimen?

I don't have experience with that model, but had some issues with my
Dell Inspiron 6400 that disappeared after some BIOS releases, maybe
you could check if there are any bios updates for you laptop.

2007-10-10 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi,

Just installed [EMAIL PROTECTED] (changing from [EMAIL PROTECTED]), 
found some
issues and would like to comment them to see if someone else did it
too.

* VMware Server
Got this error trying to run the vmware-server-console:

mainwks:~> vmware-server-console
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/bin/vmware-server-console:
/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0: no
version information available (required by /usr/lib/libcairo.so.2)

Found some posts telling that i should replace the included libraries
in vmware with links to the system libs, so replaced
"/usr/lib/vmware-server-console/lib/libpng12.so.0/libpng12.so.0" with
a link  to "/usr/lib/libpng12.so.0", the error desapeared but it
didn't launch the console either

* Wine
Trying to run ANY program gives me a "Segment violation"

mainwks:~> wine /datos/software/GPS/iBlueToolsv2.4build102/setup.exe
Violación de segmento
mainwks:~> rpm -q wine
wine-0.9.44-15

Tried upgrading to wine-0.9.46-12.3 on the buildservice but that
didn't change it..

* Firefox
In realeases before 10.3 the 32bit firefox was installed instead the
64bit, now it's not the case. So, trying to stay with the new standard
run the nsplugin app and got this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> nspluginscan

With a graphical popup (well, really 5 of them) indicating that the app crashed

[opensuse] MD5SUM on GM

2007-10-08 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi,

Just downloaded the x86_64 iso for 10.2 GM, the checksum matches the
iso image but if i burn it and do a "md5sum /dev/sr0" i get a
different checksum. Tried also the media test option within the
installation and it returns "Aceptar" in a bad spanish (wrong word at
least) but i assume it means it was OK.

So, should i proceed anyway?

Given that it's disabled on BS and he 10.1 packages aren't updated to
match the last kernel updates, maybe they decided to drop the support

According to support.asus.com the latest BIOS for your MB is 0403,

I really recommend you to run memtest from a livecd. Also check the
specs of the MOBO and CPU to see the normal temperatures.

Check /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature, I'm getting 40ºC on my
workstation (uptime 31 days) an 48ºC on my laptop (uptime: 7 days),
i'm not sure if that optimal but at least i'm running them without
problems.

Ciro

Dunno memtest shows nothing when it hangs?, boot from the rescue
disc, don't use a full blown OS to run it Make sure you have the

I'm not sure if you got the concepts right... You can build a cluster
with AMD64 machines It's generally used to achieve high
availability (one machine dies, the other takes the load) or improve
the processing power (3 members in a cluster can do a job three times
faster than just one, well that really depends on the kind of task and
how it's programmed)

Look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cluster

[opensuse] aMule eating a world of RAM

2007-09-04 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi, anybody having problem with aMule?, i'm running aMule-2.1.3-1.pm.1
on a Core 2 Duo laptop with [EMAIL PROTECTED] Come from the office this
morning and found my laptop almost unresponsive. I could hardly login
from my desktop with ssh and found amule eating 1.5GB of RAM and all
my swap. Killing the process released all the allocated memory but the
system (well,  kde in fact) stayed unresponsive for almost 10 more
minutes

Ok, seems that the kdebase3-32bit package is missing from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/KDE3/SUSE_Linux_10.1/x86_64/,
can this be fixed?, it's present on my 10.1 and 10.2 installations by
default.

[opensuse] Oracle support for PHP, perl and other apps

2007-08-28 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Hi, there's a thread on opensuse-buildservice about having support for
oracle on php, perl, and other apps like tora, plus adding a quick
solution for end users to build oracle-instantclient packages.

Although Opensuse can't provide a binary package for
oracle-instantclient because of legal issues (mostly involving
countries banned by the USA government and redistribution of the
client), we could still be able to build packages against it (like
php, tora, perl-DBD-Oracle) and distribute them (pretty much like the
Sun SDK is handled now on buildservice), plus adding a nosrc package
so the end users can fix the dependencies quickly.

Already sent a mail to oracle about the redistribution limitation, but
as there's no answer (yet), this is the only workaround.

Is there anyone interested?, if there's enough people needing this it
could be a reality, would you like to comment?

Ciro

That probably won't do it,  the package are not the same. We currently have:

mysql-4.1.10a-3.4 < taken from suse 9.3

Probably  you could specify the protocol version to be used on the
client (not sure, just guessing)

Probably i'll copy the datafiles (as soon as i get the needed space)
to a vmware installation and try to update mysql or probably reinstall
it (rpm -e mysql/rpm -i mysql-5.blah).

For production i would like to wait for 5.1 as i'm interested on using
table partitions (there's an ugly +60GB table around). Have any idea
when it's going to be released (and added to Build Service)?

I'll report back the result of my tests.

Ciro

[opensuse] SUSE SWAMP

2007-08-06 Thread Ciro Iriarte
Anybody tried it?, is it actually being used on the Opensuse project?.
Looks interesting Maybe it can replace workflow apps on
Domino/Notes...

Webpage: http://swamp.sourceforge.net/


SWAMP - The Workflow Platform

SWAMP is a workflow processing platform. Workflows are processes with
many people involved in many working steps. In a real world scenario
these workflows are highly dynamic, but still many systems try to
hardcode the business logic. That leads to raising efforts to adapt
the system.

Here is where SWAMP steps in: The workflow is designed in a XML based
meta language in one file which is read by SWAMP. Workflows can be
built from different workflow 'patterns' like simple actions,
decisions, selections, loops, but also custom code and external events
if required.

SWAMP builds a HTML GUI from the workflow definition file that guides
different users through the whole process, sends notifications if
required, assembles overview pages over all running processes and much
more. A SOAP interface can be used to integrate external systems into
the workflow.
These are SWAMPs main Features:

* Support of many different workflow patterns
* Flexibility in workflow design: A workflow can be specified in a
single XML file
* Workflow evolution: Workflows can be developed while in
operation (versioning)
* Ease of use: clear and straightforward XML based workflow
definition language, no coding skills needed
* Workflows can attach data and files
* Automatic web-GUI generation for handling individual tasks and
administrating workflows
* Running on Linux + Windows with OS-independant tools: Java, Tomcat, MySQL
* MySQL + LDAP authentication possible
* User and Role management, workflows/tasks can be restricted
* Mail notification system included
* Unlimited amount of different workflow-types on one server
* Scheduler to control time-critical workflow paths
* SOAP interface allows interaction with external systems
* Openness: Custom code allows unlimited functionality, event- and
data gateways
* Customizeable overview lists with filters

It doesn't work that way, you must mount the filesystem. Try this procedure:
- mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
- tar cf - /opt | tar xvf - -C /mnt

Once you check everything was copied as it should (you better do a backup also):
- umount /mnt
- rm -rf /opt/*
- add "/dev/sdb1/opt   reiserfsacl,user_xattr 1 2" to /etc/fstab
- mount -a

PS: Did the mkfs.reiserfs command succeed?, i think you should have
given /dev/sdb1 as the parameter (not just sdb)

Thanks for this. It has been added into my list of bookmarks, however
the question still partly remains ie why I hardly ever see anything

Hylton


All those sites are community driven, so, if Opensuse users don't take
the time to write this kind of procedures down, nobody will find
them

Take a look at blogs, they are a good place to look for "notes" or "procedures"

Example:

http://angelicpenguins.blogspot.com/2006/06/howto-suse-101-with-smart-multimedia.html

Hi  Ciro,

any problems with boot loader?

Beause that was here the biggest issue.
It was possible to boot, but default option was messed up, not bootable, as
described in bug report.


Not at all.. I'm running [EMAIL PROTECTED] and went from 2.6.18.8-0.3 to
2.6.18.8-0.5 too..



The bluethoot problem is kernel issue.


Yep, already reopened my report

Actually the later kernels have this restored already.
And I can attest that it works.

Just update to the latest kernel.




Does this apply to Suse 10.1 as well?

I'm curious - any idea as to when kernel version 2.6.20 might be
released to us SUSE folk?

I want to use it to gain a feature on my laptop (integrated media
reader) that .18 won't support.

I don't particularly feel comfortable rolling my own kernel.

thank you very much for providing suggestion and providing screenshot!

Filezilla failed in my cast that, when i specify "overwrite if newer",
it overwrite files with the same time stamp, which, gftp (non-released
2.0.19 version) correctly identified these files should be skipped.
Maybe it has something related with the Windows ftp server?

After researched on this topic for so long gftp beta version is still
the best of all, though it also make mistakes, but less important
mistakes than others. Non of tested solution can solve the problem
without mistake. So we decide to use a stupid method: take pencil and
paper write down files being touched, and manually select them for
upload. We now have the good-old pencil & paper solution and unlike
geeky friends like me, she understand technology have limitations and
accepts it. The interesting thing is I don't think technology have
limitations (yes, I would use rsync if I manage that web server!), what
I think is human have limitations, that some human is not getting used
to commandline, probably never:)

And if I am really geeky I'd go fix either filezilla or gftp. So yet
people on this lists who can fix the software they are using are really
geeky:)

[opensuse] Re: [opensuse-factory] Announcing Hack Week

2007-06-28 Thread Ciro Iriarte

2007/6/24, Nat Friedman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


Hi everyone,

At Novell we've been planning a special internal event that will run
this week, from June 25th to 29th.  We're calling it Hack Week.

During Hack Week, our entire Linux engineering team -- hundreds of
people -- will be working on whatever Linux or open source projects
interest them.  Everyone will work alone or in teams, on existing open
source projects or new ideas of their own.  No one will tell them what
or what not to do -- it's a free week for free hacking, driven by
individual passion.

To make it easier for our hackers to find and publicize their projects,
we've created an Idea Pool web site where we've all spent the last
couple of weeks sharing ideas and finding collaborators.  This web site
is open to the public here:

http://idea.opensuse.org/

Although this is a Novell event, we're running it with full
transparency.  You'll be able to follow our progress and projects on the
Idea Pool web site, either with the blog on the front page where we'll
post videos from our seven main engineering sites[1], or by watching
individual project pages.

We invite you to participate where you can.  If you'd like to help with
a project, feel free to add a comment to the discussion section of the
page and volunteer your support.

We hope that you'll at least enjoy watching Hack Week progress.  If it
is successful, we hope to run it again sometime soon, with even more
participation from the community.

If you're interested in following along, you might check the following
sites first:

- Hack Week Overview: http://idea.opensuse.org/content/hackweek
- Tags: http://idea.opensuse.org/content/blog/welcome-to-the-idea-pool
- Idea Pool code of conduct: http://idea.opensuse.org/content/etiquette
- Flickr pool: http://www.flickr.com/groups/hackweek/pool/

During the week, we'll use the channel #opensuse-hackweek on
irc.freenode.net for general discussion (project-specific discussion
will find its own venue).  Hope to see you there!

Happy hacking,
Nat

[1] Beijing, Bangalore, Prague, Nuernberg, Boston, Provo, Portland are
the main sites

How exactly are you trying to access the share?  Are you using a NETBIOS name
or IP address?  If you are using a NETBIOS name, try using the IP address,
like so:

smb://192.168.1.100/c$

and see if that works.  You are using the 3.5.5 packages, and I have moved to
the 3.5.7 packages, so if there was a bug on your end I may not be seeing it
anyways.  Also, are you running a domain at home as well, using local
authentication, or what?

I'm using smb://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/C$
It's not samba specific, i'm getting also the wrong password message
with sftp://[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Both cases were working before applying the last patches.

No, i didn't. On the XP share case, the PC is on a AD domain, all
password changes are done on the workstation. I only use konqueror to
copy ocationally files from my XP workstation to my Opensuse 10.2
laptop. It's been working since day 1 of my laptop. Last night i
thought it was some weird situation with the domain, maybe a patch to
the DC. But this morning tried the same procedure (but this time at
home, to copy files from my pc to my laptop) and konqueror didn't
accept my ssh password  either.

[opensuse] All passwords invalid on konqueror

2007-06-23 Thread Ciro Iriarte

I, just updated last night my system running Opensuse 10.2 (x86_64),
i'm not sure when really this started, but now i can't access a WinXP
share or connect through sftp to my Suse 10.1 workstation with
konqueror, in both cases it says the password is wrong, although i can
login to the XP machine locally or the Suse workstation through ssh.

I didn't open a bugzilla ticket because i would like to confirm if
it's really a bug (something else have seen it).
