Re: [CentOS] managing a rack full of centos servers
I'm managing two data centers and some instances on rackspace cloud servers. Currently running Cobbler+Puppet+Mcollective. So far it's been great for a team of one, myself. At the moment I'm looking into either using Aeolus or Openstack to bridge the gap of my data centers and the public cloud still keeping Puppet+Mcollective in the mix and seeing if Cobbler is still needed. Anyone out there tried both Aeolus *and* Openstack yet? I'm looking to supplement my research on these two private/public cloud tools. =) On Thu, Jul 21, 2011 at 3:19 PM, Marian Marinov m...@yuhu.biz wrote: On Thursday 21 July 2011 18:36:17 Devin Reade wrote: --On Wednesday, July 20, 2011 11:02:42 PM -0700 RC cool...@gmail.com wrote: On Wed, 20 Jul 2011 10:07:06 -0600 Devin Reade g...@gno.org wrote: It should be considered as complementing the automated config management tools like cfengine et al, not as a replacement for them (they're doing different jobs).

The reason I said complementing is that sometimes it is good to have stuff under a configuration management system like cfengine/puppet, but sometimes you need to run ad-hoc commands, in an identical fashion, on lots of similar machines, which pconsole is good at (subject to the caveats I previously mentioned). I made no comments on pdsh/pdcp at all, and make no claims on where it fits in the spectrum. Devin You can actually achieve the same functionality of pdsh/pdcp and pconsole with a quite simple bash script :) http://multy-command.sourceforge.net/ I think it is a matter of what the admin will prefer to do. When you have a lot of identical machines, sometimes it is better to have cfengine/puppet, but sometimes it just an overkill to use them if you are the only one administrating those machines. cfengine and puppet have a very good place on machines that are administered by a team of people. But solutions like pdsh/pconsole and multy-command, in my opinion are more suitable when there are only one or two guys administering those machines.

[CentOS] Broadcom Wifi Problem
I have a Broadcom 802.11b/g hardware on my dual-boot laptop. Note first that in the WinXP partition, the wifi makes DHCP connections to my router with no problem. Since this was not working in my new CentOS 6 partition, and remembering that there was a driver problem with the old Fedora partition it replaced, I followed instructions founs at: http://repecka.net/en/2011/04/19/install-broadcom-bcm4311-802-11bg-wlan- drivers-on-centos/ and http://www.broadcom.com/docs/linux_sta/README.txt modifying for that fact that I use wlan0 rather than eth1. The wifi is now dead-in-the-water. The wlan light now remains red, and neither ifconfig nor iwconfig show any sign of wlan0 (contra to the situation before I installed the new driver). It still works in the WinXP partition. Suggestions for my next step in fixing this would be most welcome.

I see no reference in the link you posted about firmware but since it discusses removing and blacklisting the b43 driver I would guess the are assuming the firmware is installed.

The reason I said complementing is that sometimes it is good to have stuff under a configuration management system like cfengine/puppet, but sometimes you need to run ad-hoc commands, in an identical fashion, on lots of similar machines, which pconsole is good at (subject to the caveats I previously mentioned). I made no comments on pdsh/pdcp at all, and make no claims on where it fits in the spectrum. Devin You can actually achieve the same functionality of pdsh/pdcp and pconsole with a quite simple bash script :) http://multy-command.sourceforge.net/ I think it is a matter of what the admin will prefer to do. When you have a lot of identical machines, sometimes it is better to have cfengine/puppet, but sometimes it just an overkill to use them if you are the only one administrating those machines. cfengine and puppet have a very good place on machines that are administered by a team of people.

[CentOS] Migration Assistance
Good Afternoon, I have been tasked with migrating a machine sitting on RHEL 5.6 off a rackspace cloud server to a local machine. In order to cut costs we would like to utilize Centos 5.6. I have done quite a bit of research and have as of yet been able to find a clear answer on how to accomplish this. I have installed Centos 5.6 locally and am in a time crunch to complete this. I am hoping that someone can explain how to achieve this requirement. I did create a .tar file of the / partition of the RHEL remote server and rsync'd it locally. Hopefully I can just copy certain files from this .tar file to the new machine. Any and all assistance is tremendously appreciated. Best.

I've used the instructions at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/MigrationGuide to move an RHEL system to CentOS with reasonable results. Of course, YMMV.

P.S: And yes, you should leave NetworkManger manage your network connections for start, and stop meddling with wpa_supplicant and manual wireless configuration - it'll save you time and nervs. So, just run: service network stop service NetworkManager start chkconfig network off chkconfig NetworkManager on Milos, My NetworkManager doesn't. As I mentioned on another thread, when I go to: System Settings Network Settings Network Settings I get a window that says Your Platform is Not Supported and offers me a list of Linus systems, none of which are appropriate. Since I should be able to run from the command line, I have given it a low priority. But I would reconsider if a fix is suggested. I will download from the link you provided and try again.

Re: [CentOS] Migration Assistance
Good Afternoon, I have been tasked with migrating a machine sitting on RHEL 5.6 off a rackspace cloud server to a local machine. In order to cut costs we would Whatever this cloud thing is, it can mean almost anything these days :) like to utilize Centos 5.6. I have done quite a bit of research and have as of yet been able to find a clear answer on how to accomplish this. I have installed Centos 5.6 locally and am in a time crunch to complete this. I am hoping that someone can explain how to achieve this requirement. I did create a .tar file of the / partition of the RHEL remote server and rsync'd it locally. Hopefully I can just copy certain files from this .tar file to the new machine. Any and all assistance is tremendously appreciated. What I usually end up is to install the new system, then create rpm lists on the source system and use yum/rpm on the target to make it have the same packages. After that I apply all config changes (diff is really my friend here) and rsync the data over. I did a lot of migrations recently and I found it to be the best way with just the simple tools: rpm, yum, diff, bash, rsync Simon ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] Radeon driver under CentOS-6
I wonder if anyone has CentOS-6 working on an HP MicroServer? I'm having a problem with the graphics driver for the Radeon HD 4200 graphics card. CentOS-5.6 is working fine on this machine; but at present I only have CentOS-6 running in text mode. The graphics card as given by /sbin/lspci -m is --- 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller ATI Technologies Inc M880G [Mobility Radeon HD 4200] Hewlett-Packard Company Device 1609 --- The Radeon related modules are --- [tim@grover ~]$ lsmod | grep -i radeon radeon798300 0 ttm47134 1 radeon drm_kms_helper 32113 1 radeon drm 202185 3 radeon,ttm,drm_kms_helper i2c_algo_bit5664 1 radeon i2c_core 31274 5 i2c_piix4,radeon,drm_kms_helper,drm,i2c_algo_bit --- Under CentOS-5.6 the Radeon related modules are --- [tim@grover ~]$ lsmod | grep -i radeon radeon148193 0 drm 115561 1 radeon --- Admittedly I have probably installed different packages in the two cases. I'm wondering if I could try the old radeon module, and if so how? Are there any documents that might help me determine the problem, and hopefully solve it? I don't see any errors listed in /var/log/messages, or in dmesg.

Re: [CentOS] Migration Assistance
brian, there are many solutions if you like ssh and rsync etc, then... taking this solution and modify it a little and it works great http://www.jms1.net/code/rsync-backup.shtml one, you can backup the machine(s) to another system with large space two, once machine(s) backed up, then you can mod the script to do proper excludes and then rsync the remote 5.6 to the local 5.6 again, proper use of excludes in the script is necessary and then when getting ready to do final pull, you have to modify the local space to write to so it doesnt go into a backup directory, but to where it need to go on the new server - rh ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
