[CentOS-es] Programar envio de correos con phpList
Muy buenas, tengo implementado en mi servidor de correo el phpList para las listas de correo. Funciona bastante bien, lo único que no me funciona es la programación del envío de correos en el apartado de envio de mensajes/Calendario , ese apartado de calendario lo configuro para que a una determinada hora empiece a mandar el correo pero no hace nada de nada. He buscado info antes de acudir a vosotros y por lo visto hay más gente que ha tenido problemas con la programación del envio de correos pero no pone como solucionarlo ya que por lo que he leído hay que programar una tarea en crontab y además modificar algún .php de phpList. Alguien ha conseguido programar el envío de correos? Alguien me puede ayudar? Un saludo y gracias de antemano.

As long as part of their operating plan is replacing every server by the time its batteries need replacing, they are good to go.You also need the sort of cloud management environment where your servers themselves are interchangable worker units and can be easily taken down for maintenance OTOH, populating lots of racks with several APC SU3000's each is a pain in the butt. Servicing dozens or 100s of per-rack UPS's when they are 3-4 years old and need battery replacement is also very time consuming. a battery tray swap of a decent sized datacenter UPS takes a half day with a small fork lift. -- john r pierceN 37, W 122 santa cruz ca mid-left coast ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

You hook up device to the PC, and both to internet, device with public IP, best if it is static, or with dynamic domain. Then you use (app or web browser?) and open up IP of the device and you get somethink like VNC or TeamViewer but directly to hardware. Device has some sort of embedded OS in the firmware so you have access to all of your data, or at least I understood his comment in that way. Anyway, you can remotely even access BIOS screen.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 6 supported hardware
Mark, On Tuesday, July 5, 2011 you wrote: Has anyone seen a supported hardware list on CentOS 6? Check my question regarding the same question from May. 3rd this year with the subject list of supported hardware. There is a list of certified hardware, but no list of supported hardware. I find this strange as in my opinion the hardware support is mainly handled in the kernel. If people are writing drivers for the kernel, it would be quite simple to ask them adding the supported hardware to a list. Some two years ago I had an issue with a new motherboard. After a kernel update, it had massive memory errors in the log-files. It turned out that a new kernel driver simply added the feature of reporting errors. They were there before, but not reported. I had to wade through the kernel source code and the history-files to figure out what had happened. Not really good, but OTOH no CENTOS problem. best regards --- Michael Schumacher PAMAS Partikelmess- und Analysesysteme GmbH Dieselstr.10, D-71277 Rutesheim Tel +49-7152-99630 Fax +49-7152-996333 Geschäftsführer: Gerhard Schreck Handelsregister B Stuttgart HRB 252024 ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

True, but that you'll get in any industry, with any product - even EMC or other similar large and expensive equipment vendors :) With raidz2 (similar to RAID6) we've never had any data loss or corruption due to hard drive failure and long rebuilds. And if you use SSD for ZIL LARC2 cache, it's super fast. the same systems with EXT3 simply couldn't match the performance we got got from ZFS. I take it you limit your raidz2 arrays to a maximum of 9 drives? Yes, in a 12-bay chassis, we use: 1x L2ARC SSD 2x ZIL SSD mirrored 9x SATA / SAS (depending on application) drives in raidz2, which effectively gives us 7 usable drives I am contemplating using 24bay chassis instead, purely from a cost (hardware, power, cooling) point of view and then using 2x raidz2 pools. /me wonders what an md raid array with an ext3 fs that has its journal on an ssd in full data journal mode give in terms of performance.

But with ZFS you get all the data, read write, cached on SSD I would not give zfs the performance crown just yet. Have you tried using ext3 with an external journal on the ssd and ext3 on raid6?

We (elrepo) certainly aren't prepared to create and redistribute binary kmod-wl RPMS given the Broadcom licensing restrictions. However, one of our colleagues recently required these packages so we did knock up some kmod packages for el5 and el6 for our own internal not to be redistributed private use. As there is evidently a high demand for them, we have decided to make available our SRPMS (well, .nosrc.rpm actually) which end users can rebuild themselves. http://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el5/SRPMS/wl-kmod-5_100_82_38-1.el5.elrepo.nosrc.rpm http://elrepo.org/linux/elrepo/el6/SRPMS/wl-kmod-5_100_82_38-2.el6.elrepo.nosrc.rpm Because these packages do not contain or redistribute anything from Broadcom they are not subject to Broadcom's licensing, hence we feel we are able to distribute them if they benefit the community.

Note they are not advertised as hot swap, I believe this is probably because there is no SES (enclosure services) and Windows in particular is not happy about hotswapping disks without one. afaik, if you go to the trouble of using the mdadm commands on linux to take the drive offline before removing it, you should be able to 'warm swap' as there's nothing in the hardware preventing it, and the SATA connector is inherently electrically safe for hotswap.

Each file is no larger than 1GB (by default), but its written and expanded as needed, not in any fixed size increment. The WAL files you refer to are apparently database transaction logs. According to the wiki, these too are allocated in extents (WAL segments) of 16MB each. The wal logs are 16M files, also written sequentially as needed, and nearly continuously on a insert/update intensive database. they are not reused, rather, old wal files are deleted (unless you're archiving), and new ones are created continuously. -- john r pierceN 37, W 122 santa cruz ca mid-left coast ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
