[CentOS-docs] Wikisource of original docs

2010-02-26 Thread Eduardo Grosclaude
Hello,
When it comes to translations, it would be useful to have the original
sources. Is there any place for us translators to pick up a copy? We
do not have edit access to originals.
TIA

Try adding a '?action=raw' to the URL. Is this what you are referring
to as the originals ?

 (...more reasons to move to KVM)

I have a hunch that you are going to do whatever you are told to do and that 
you really have no idea what is going on.

Can we get more Hey, I'm told KVM is cool so I'm migrating all of my 
production servers to it because the free OS of my choice may not support it in 
a year or two after I leave my current suckjob position and I hear, since I 
don't read mainline kernel mailing lists religiously and keep only a 
superficial idea in my head about kernel development, since I really have no 
idea what 'kernel development' means, that KVM is the only Jesus-approved way 
of doing things threads? None of you seem to have have a head for any of this, 
it seems.

Maybe you're just working for Billy's Interwebs-r-Us and keeping Sally's Nail 
Shop going strong, but the last time I checked, the ent in CentOS stood for 
enterprise.

Here are a few tips:

1. Fuck KVM.
2. Stick with Xen because there is quite a lot of time until 5 is EOL'd and if 
you haven't noticed, it's actually a mature technology.
3. Figure out what you are going to do with Sally's Nail Shop in the meantime. 
If you have time to fuck everything up in your environment with KVM, you can 
probably save 20% or more optimizing your environment and even more with proper 
capital investments and training.
4. Figure out how either a) non-critical/enterprise services would ever be 
served by KVM's features or lack thereof, or b) you are going to CYA when you 
can't guarantee an SLA.
5. Spend more time on KVM dev lists instead of posting here and annoying others 
with your butthurt KVM-won't-work posts, as it's not even supported upstream.

Re: [CentOS-virt] guest management: 1 and only 1 instance

- Christopher Hunt dharmach...@gmail.com wrote:

 Gang,
  I run several KVM host machines.  Due to updates, maintenance,
 and unexpected reboots sometime host machines are restarted.  I can
 easily envision a scenario where HostX needs some critical packages
 updated or is acting up.  I migrate guest0, guest1, guest2 etc. from
 HostX to HostY.  Then, in either a planned (i.e. scheduled
 maintenance) or unplanned (i.e. unplanned reboot) event reboots
 HostX.
  Unfortunately guest0, guest1 and guest2 are all set to autostart on
 HostX but they're currently running on HostY when HostX boots etc
 etc etc
 
     Is anyone using effective packages, scripts or techniques which
 help maintain that all guest are running once and only once across a
 cluster of KVM hosts?  I have been using virt-manager but it's not
 automated so much...

Red Hat Cluster Suite
Heartbeat
etc.

Or, if you want to roll your own, just run a MySQL instance or two, use 
SERIALIZABLE isolation, poll guest lists with ``xm info'' or whatever you want, 
store the info in MySQL, etc. Should take about an hour if you start from 
scratch. It's easier with other DBs, or even files and lockfiles, but it really 
depends on your experience. If you're asking this, something SQL is probably 
the easiest. Heck, just do it in bash, cron, and ssh.

Re: [CentOS-virt] moving from Xen to KVM

2010-02-26 Thread compdoc
KVM works. I'm happy with it. But then I build servers with
6 guests or less for small businesses. 

There are comparisons. They say KVM doesn't scale as well.
They say in some areas xen shines, and in some areas kvm
shines. But the comparisons are all from last year before
red hat released 5.4.

RHEL 5.5, which includes many improvements will be out
shortly. Think I'll stick with it...

2010-02-26 Thread Maykel Franco Hernandez
Hola muy buenas estoy intentando montar un dns local por primera vez ya
que nunca me ha echo falta pero ahora lo quiero montar para aprender y
demás y he seguido este manual que está bastante bien para la version
9.10:

http://ubuntumexico.org/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=5774


He seguido al pie de la letra el manual desde el nombre del equipo junto
con el dominio(FQDN) menos la ip que yo utilizo otro rango pero vamos se
sustituye en todos lados que se tenga que sustituir y ya está.
Lo he echo todo igual pero cuando reinicio el servicio me reporta el
siguiente error:

r...@server:/etc/default# /etc/init.d/bind9 restart
 * Stopping domain name service... bind9  
 
   rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection
refused


 [
OK
]
 * Starting domain name service... bind9


He buscado en google pero nosé porque puede estar pasando esto. Si alguien
me puede echar una mano, es la primera vez que monto un dns y al principio
estoy un poco verde. Un saludo a todos.


Aunque el manual es para ubuntu, se puede implementar igual para Centos
los archivos de configuracion son los mismos simplemente que se instalan
de diferente manera. Espero que no sea eso un problema.

qué raro, el servicio ni se llama así en centos ni da una salida similar 
ni centos tiene todavia una version 9, sino que va por la 5 pero muy 
sólido y estable.

Esta es una lista de centos... te puedo recomendar un howto que puse 
para centos aqui:

este es para un dns de zona, no creo que sea el que necesites:
http://www.ecualug.org/2008/10/07/comos/%C2%BFc%C3%B3mo_configurar_un_servidor_de_dns_de_zona_en_centos_linux

este es para un dns de cache, pienso que será el que necesites:
http://www.ecualug.org/2008/10/07/comos/%C2%BFcomo_configurar_un_servidor_de_dns_de_cache_en_centos_linux

ultimamente he estado utilizando el maradns con muy buenos resultados 
para ambos tipos de dns y pronto pondré un howto, es mucho mas simple el 
proceso

 Para esto encontrarán excelentes guías en alcancelibre el colega
 que ha preparado estas páginas es un gran colaborador,  a quien de
 paso agradezco.
 Y si me permiten un consejo, si tu quieres los archivos, no te
 serviran de mucho, cada instalación es personalizada a cada
 solución, deberías tratar de entender como funciona cada archivo de
 shorewall. Yo he trabajado mucho tiempo directamente con iptables en
   crudo, me agrada, me es fácil, pero para usuarios noveles y otros
 shorewall es una excelente herramienta, pero si ni el concepto de
 firewall ni de proxy tienes claro, no esperes que la copia de
 archivos te soluciones el problema en cuestion. (por favor tomenlo
 como consejo sano). De cualquier forma estamos para colaborar y
 atender las dudas de todos así que cuenta con ello.

Looks good, but is the final version of package .3.3 also available

 epel is the best large 3rd party repo in terms of avoiding conflicts
 with the base.  
 

 Yeah, I noticed that with rpmforge. I was just under the impression that
 epel was a bit dodgy as repos come. Never too late to be enlightened
 though. ;-)
   

the following is my opinion, and nothing else:



epel doesn't use a repository tag in their RPM names.   this makes it 
hard to use with other repositories.

 Why?


Remote smtp server is not working correctly or spamfilter on it kills message?

Note that it can take a bit time until gmail delivers it to mailbox.

Hello, I would appreciate if you could stop to send all your software 
problems to this list. Most of your problems seem to be qmail-related, 
please go to a qmail list for these. Thanks.

No.


 Note that it can take a bit time until gmail delivers it to mailbox.


Gmail's very quick and it's been an hour now. Usually takes a second.
Another very strange thing about this is that the contact page refreshes to
itself when I try to email (through the form elt). If I pull the email send
stuff out of the script where the form goes,  it doesn't refresh to itself;
rather, it prints what is written in the script to print.

With respect to Kai's suggestion I find a qmail list, I'm sorry to say there
don't appear to be ANY discussion lists for ANY email servers that are
active. I'm desperate to get this working.

Maybe that's because of the nature of your questions. I get the impression 
that you are mostly asking very basic questions that a sysadmin *should* 
know or at least know how to google them up. I get the impression that you 
are not trying hard enough to understand your software. You cannot just 
throw any problem you encounter at the next list you find. For your last

SNIP

 
 Why?

That is a good question - I guess that google's email system thinks you're
sending them spam. If you want your mail to be accepted you may need to have
implemented SPF and domainkeys. Also I think that if you are using a script
to generate the email then ensure that you are creating the required headers
and that your mail conforms to the rfc.

You can also try to send mail to your google address by hand i.e. telnet to
google's mail platform on port 25 and mimic the smtp conversation by hand to
see if you can get any further

HTH

Simon.

 Maybe that's because of the nature of your questions. I get the
 impression that you are mostly asking very basic questions that a
 sysadmin *should* know or at least know how to google them up. I get the

I agree. I've spent a good bit more of my career as a programmer than as a
sysadmin, and in both cases, I expect the system software to *work* as
expected, and when it doesn't, I find it tends to be truly obscure errors
that senior admins scratch their heads over.

[CentOS] question on kvm

2010-02-26 Thread Jerry Geis
I had used and old kvm-87 on centos 5.4 x86_64

I was wanting ot update that and use the newer qemu-kvm-0.12.3
I downloaded that and everything was good there - but the kernel modules 
are not included.

So I downloaded (or started to download) kvm-kvod something... but there 
is nothing there for
2.6.18?

How do I get the correct 2.6.18 version?

You could make your own init script, like these guys' example[1], then
 use chkconfig and service to make it 'automatic'.

Or you could see of tcng[2] might meet your needs.

From earlier posts you will have seen that you need to create the headers
correctly in the body part of the email (just after you entered in DATA).
Also do not spoof the domain in the helo portion either your email MUST
be valid in every way or it WILL be discarded by the anti-spam measures.
Also if you continue to send spam to their servers you WILL become black
listed and then even legitimate email will not be delivered. 

If you implement SPF make sure that you get it right or your mail will be
blocked there are plenty of spf checkers out there.

Finally, I would not send mail to service providers like hotmail or google
until I had my script emailing my local domain correctly at least when
you send mail to your localdomain, you're in control of the reception as
well as the transmission.

Good luck

Simon.

There is a good chance that lm-sensors supports your servers with no 
additional hardware needed. To configure lm-sensors, run 
'sensors-detect' as root. If your cpu/motherboard is supported you will 
be able to read system temps directly either using SNMP or by scraping 
'sensors' output.

 There is a good chance that lm-sensors supports your servers with no 
 additional hardware needed. To configure lm-sensors, run 
 'sensors-detect' as root. If your cpu/motherboard is supported you will 
 be able to read system temps directly either using SNMP or by scraping 
 'sensors' output.

But it'll not give information about temperature in server room.

 Hi,

 Any RS-232 temperature sensor should do the job.


The USB ones also (generally) work with CentOS, though you may need to
resort to reading the USB device with a script and doing your own

I;m not sure what you consider cheap.  I've  used a Sensatronics Model E4,
for which I've written my own daemon software to take a reading and log it
every x minutes.  I've also had a Sensaphone Model 1104 which can
automatically call multiple phone numbers and play a message about
fault conditions.

Each of these were in the $400 to $600 range (with sensors).

If you google a bit there are many suppliers who sell complete kits for
serial and USB (I use USB) connections for a fair price.
Maybe it's a bit overkill for 1 sensor, but its easy to connect many
sensors to a machine (I have about 20 :) ).

I don't know what your idea of cheap is, but I use Servertech PDUs
exclusively and their Smart and Switched models are network aware and
have optional temperature/humidity probes which you can query via
SNMP. This is handy because you then have sensors essentially built
into each and every rack. Pretty simple to have nagios query the
SNMP value and alert. Also am having cacti graph the data as well.
Most of the servertech PDUs the sensors plug directly into the PDU,
on some of them it requires an add-on module. Each PDU typically
supports 2 sensors, the cables are about 10 feet.

About 5 years ago at a company I deployed a Sensatronics model E4
which has up to 16 probe inputs, and they have sensors with cables
up to something like 300 feet. Monitorable by a simple http server
and I believe it has SNMP as well.

They have fancier monitoring appliances as well with alerting and
stuff though they weren't out when I was using their stuff.

 epel is the best large 3rd party repo in terms of avoiding conflicts
 with the base.


 Yeah, I noticed that with rpmforge. I was just under the impression that
 epel was a bit dodgy as repos come. Never too late to be enlightened
 though. ;-)


 the following is my opinion, and nothing else:



 epel doesn't use a repository tag in their RPM names.   this makes it
 hard to use with other repositories.

All repositories are hard to use with other repositories.  Yum doesn't 
pay attention to repo tags, so all they do is help point out problems 
after the fact.  I think it was a dumb decision for epel to not use tags 
but it is worse that yum doesn't track where it got things. For packages 
you haven't installed yet, 'yum info packagename' will show the 
repository location(s).

As an example of things that go wrong, on one machine I have subversion 
and viewvc from rpmforge (to get a version that is not ancient), but 
epel's build number for viewvc is higher and the rpmforge/epel versions 
land in different places and are incompatible.  So, with my usual 
practice of leaving epel enabled during updates, I pick up epel's 
newer-numbered package which overwrites some of the rpmforge version and 
keeps some, leaving it very broken.  But fortunately it's a standalone 
package and not to hard to fix by removing the one you don't want and 
re-installing with the right combination of enablerepo= and disablerepo= 
on the yum command line.  When this happens to things with a lot of 
dependencies it is a real mess.

If your goal is simply to know when the server room is getting hot, the 
difference doesn't matter. All you need to know is that it is warmer

Yes, are you really that concerned about whether people in the room are 
comfortable - they'll tell someone if they aren't even without gadgets.
If the room is getting hot, so will the equipment, so internal sensors 
will show the trend, just offset by a bit of equipment heat.  Most Cisco 
equipment and higher end UPS's will have SNMP readable sensors that 
monitoring programs can read, graph, and alarm on thresholds, and I 
believe you can enable them on linux servers with the right snmpd.conf 
settings.

[CentOS] rkhunter doesn't remove temp suspscan files in /dev/shm

2010-02-26 Thread Camron W. Fox
Alle,

I know this is off-topic, so I apologize in advance, but we have
installed rkhunter from EPEL (because it has the current version, 1.3.6
vice the 1.3.4 rpmforge version) on our CentOS machine and find that it
does not remove the files in /dev/shm it uses for the SUSPSCAN test,
this triggering a warning for said test. This was a known bug that was
supposed to be have been fixed in V1.3.1.
I can't find an EPEL mailing list to send the question to, so I'm
hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.

  If you can get graphs from two different pieces of equipment on the same
  page you can pretty much see the trend.  A single device might have a
  fan go bad or something - but that should probably be fixed anyway.  On
  servers that have variable CPU power you might see temperature
  variations depending on the load.
 
  You have right. While you checking sensors from few machines, you can
  see the trend. Gotta think about changing the way of temperature
  monitoring here.
 
 Here's a question back: does the HVAC in the room allow monitoring?

It could be some problems with ventilation, I guess.

Myself I wouldn't rely on internal equipment sensors to try to
extrapolate ambient temperature from their readings. Most equipment
will automatically spin their fans at faster RPMs as the temperature
goes up which can give false indications of ambient temperature.

I do monitor the temperature of network equipment, but also have
dedicated sensors for ambient readings. Already saved us some pain
once, opened up a new location in London last year and the ambient
temperature at our rack in the data center was 85+ degrees F. The
SLA requires temperature be from 64-78 degrees. Alarms were going off
in Nagios.

The facility claimed there was no issue, and opened up some more
air vents, which didn't help. They still didn't believe us so they
installed their own sensor in our rack. The next day the temperature
dropped by ~10 degrees, I guess they believed their own sensor..

http://portal.aphroland.org/~aphro/rack-temperature.png

People at my own company were questioning the accuracy of this
sensor(there was only one, I prefer 2 but they are cheap bastards),
but I was able to validate the increased temperature by comparing
the internal temp of the switches and load balancers were
significantly higher than other locations. Though even with the
ambient temperature dropping by 10+ degrees, the temperature of
the gear didn't move nearly as much.

The crazy part was I checked the temperature probes at my former
company(different/better data center) and the *exhaust* temperature
of the servers was lower than the *input* temperature from this
new data center. Exhaust temperature was around 78-80 degrees,
several degrees below the 85+.

It seems the facility in London further improved their cooling
in recent weeks as average temperature is down from 78 to about
70-72 now, and is much more stable, prior to the change we
were frequently spiking above 80 and averaging about 78.

Also having ambient temperature sensors can be advantageous in
the event you need to convince a facility they are running too
hot(or out of SLA), as a tech guy myself(as you can probably
see already) I am much less inclined to trust the results of
internal equipment sensors than a standalone external sensor
which can be put on the front of the rack.

[CentOS] good centos/rhel source for latest spamassassin?

 Looks good, but is the final version of package .3.3 also available
 instead of rc1?

I pushed File:spamassassin-3.3.0-5orc.src.rpm over top -- I 
think i was there before, but perhaps not

 .. and how to build spamassassin including all modules? Directory
 contains lot of files, or do I need to build each package and then
 just install?

um -- there is a README in the directory

I second that. I had a SATA drive that showed a few bad sectors in 2008
sometime. I got the vendor software (DOS version) and ran the diags and
repair. Used it for another year or so.

Bad sectors started appearing again and I knew what this meant. Started
taking more frequent backups. When it was convenient, downloaded the
latest diags from the vendor, ran it repeatedly and every time it found
and repaired more bad sectors and finally confirmed the drive was NG.
Warranty exchange was easy and prompt.

If you've been through a small initial set of bad sectors and are now
seeing more (especially if you ran the vendor's software), the drive is
living on borrowed time.

This has been characteristic of drives for decades - a few early defects
may appear, re-map and the drive works a very long time but when more
start appearing a slow death is in progress.

That's because fsck remaps /file system/ blocks to spares while the
firmware/vendor diags handles media sectors. So if you fsck's inumerable
times, the drive firmware is not affected and still sees the /original/
bad sectors until those are re-mapped.

Re: [CentOS] Temperature sensor

2010-02-26 Thread Wade Hampton
Try the Dallas/Maxim 1-wire system.  They have serial port
controllers with an RJ11 jack so you can use a phone cable
to the sensor.  I got one of their temp sensors and a cheap
RJ11 jack from Radio Shack and had a remote temp sensor.

They use a simple serial protocol and some of the controllers
are smart like the DS9097U $28 or so for the controller:
