Vamos un clon optimizado para una arquitectura en particular, p ej: i686, amd64, etc..., Un saludo. -- -- Publicidad http://www.pas-world.com ___ CentOS-es mailing list CentOS-es@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-es

At my physics lab we have 30 servers with 1TB disk packs. I am in need of monitoring for disk failures. I have been reading about SMART and it seems it can help. However, I am not sure what to look for if a drive is about to fail. Any thoughts about this? Is anyone using this method to predetermine disk failures?

Hope they help ... -rak- http://hardware.slashdot.org/hardware/07/02/18/0420247.shtml Google Releases Paper on Disk Reliability*The Google engineers just published a paper on Failure Trends in a Large Disk Drive Populationhttp://labs.google.com/papers/disk_failures.pdf. Based on a study of 100,000 disk drives over 5 years they find some interesting stuff. To quote from the abstract: 'Our analysis identifies several parameters from the drive's self monitoring facility (SMART) that correlate highly with failures. Despite this high correlation, we conclude that models based on SMART parameters alone are unlikely to be useful for predicting individual drive failures. Surprisingly, we found that temperature and activity levels were much less correlated with drive failures than previously reported.' * http://hardware.slashdot.org/hardware/07/02/21/004233.shtml Everything You Know About Disks Is Wrong*Google's wasn't the best storage paper at FAST '07 http://www.usenix.org/events/fast07/. Another, more provocative paper looking at real-world results from 100,000 disk drives got the 'Best Paper' award. Bianca Schroeder, of CMU's Parallel Data Lab, submitted Disk failures in the real world: What does an MTTF of 1,000,000 hours mean to you?http://www.usenix.org/events/fast07/tech/schroeder/schroeder_html/index.htmlThe paper crushes a number of (what we now know to be) myths about disks such as vendor MTBF validity, 'consumer' vs. 'enterprise' drive reliability (spoiler: no difference), and RAID 5 assumptions. StorageMojo has a good summary of the paper's key points http://storagemojo.com/?p=383.* http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6983?from=50comments_per_page=50 Monitoring Hard Disks with SMART By Bruce Allenhttp://www.linuxjournal.com/user/801273on Thu, 2004-01-01 02:00. SysAdmin http://www.linuxjournal.com/taxonomy/term/8 One of your hard disks might be trying to tell you it's not long for this world. Install software that lets you know when to replace it. It's a given that all disks eventually die, and it's easy to see why. The platters in a modern disk drive rotate more than a hundred times per second, maintaining submicron tolerances between the disk heads and the magnetic media that store data. Often they run 24/7 in dusty, overheated environments, thrashing on heavily loaded or poorly managed machines. So, it's not surprising that experienced users are all too familiar with the symptoms of a dying disk. Strange things start happening. Inscrutable kernel error messages cover the console and then the system becomes unstable and locks up. Often, entire days are lost repeating recent work, re-installing the OS and trying to recover data. Even if you have a recent backup, sudden disk failure is a minor catastrophe. http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ smartmontools Home Page Welcome!

Rak, Thanks! The Google paper is intense. I was hoping to get some practical usage with command or scripts to better monitor my SMART environment.

Based on a study of 100,000 disk drives over 5 years they find some interesting stuff. To quote from the abstract: 'Our analysis identifies several parameters from the drive's self monitoring facility (SMART) that correlate highly with failures. Despite this high correlation, we conclude that models based on SMART parameters alone are unlikely to be useful for predicting individual drive failures. Surprisingly, we found that temperature and activity levels were much less correlated with drive failures than previously reported.' http://hardware.slashdot.org/hardware/07/02/21/004233.shtml Everything You Know About Disks Is Wrong Google's wasn't the best storage paper at FAST '07. Another, more provocative paper looking at real-world results from 100,000 disk drives got the 'Best Paper' award. Bianca Schroeder, of CMU's Parallel Data Lab, submitted Disk failures in the real world: What does an MTTF of 1,000,000 hours mean to you? The paper crushes a number of (what we now know to be) myths about disks such as vendor MTBF validity, 'consumer' vs. 'enterprise' drive reliability (spoiler: no difference), and RAID 5 assumptions. StorageMojo has a good summary of the paper's key points. http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6983?from=50comments_per_page=50 Monitoring Hard Disks with SMART By Bruce Allen on Thu, 2004-01-01 02:00. SysAdmin One of your hard disks might be trying to tell you it's not long for this world. Install software that lets you know when to replace it. It's a given that all disks eventually die, and it's easy to see why. The platters in a modern disk drive rotate more than a hundred times per second, maintaining submicron tolerances between the disk heads and the magnetic media that store data. Often they run 24/7 in dusty, overheated environments, thrashing on heavily loaded or poorly managed machines. So, it's not surprising that experienced users are all too familiar with the symptoms of a dying disk. Strange things start happening. Inscrutable kernel error messages cover the console and then the system becomes unstable and locks up. Often, entire days are lost repeating recent work, re-installing the OS and trying to recover data. Even if you have a recent backup, sudden disk failure is a minor catastrophe. http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ smartmontools Home Page Welcome!

Thankyou Anne. I just installed this and its seems to work. I am behind a RAID controller so hopefully anyone with cciss drivers can shed some light. I am able to see my logical devices but I have 6 drives per logical device. I would like to see all 12 drive status if possible.

Re: [CentOS] S.M.A.R.T
If using Linux, smart runs as a daemon and watches all drives. What I've done is create a cron job that searches /var/log/messages for the word smart and emails me the result. If I get a blank message, no drive problems, The following url has a sample of what /var/log/messages might show if smart has something to report: http://defindit.com/readme_files/smartd_smartctl.html Scott On Sat, 30 Aug 2008, Mag Gam wrote: Thankyou Anne.

Re: [CentOS] S.M.A.R.T
Thankyou again. I suppose I can take a look at smartd to get log files and have them forward to syslog-ng, unless smartd has an email feature :-) What does your smartd config look like for HP P400/800 controller? I would be curious to look at that. TIA On Sat, Aug 30, 2008 at 10:15 AM, Mogens Kjaer [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mag Gam wrote: Thankyou Anne. I just installed this and its seems to work.

Mogens, Correct thats what I am using. N=0 is the controller N=1 1 drive N=2 2 Drive N3 is not working for me.
