but thats what I'm asking you to investigate. All you see is a symptom, more 
data may clarify the situation. Weren't you taking data from both inside the 
guests an on the host's disks. It was kind of unclear.

The guest number are the ones that are not consistent with each other or 
across restarts of the guests:

seekmark:
guest 1: 120 seeks/s
guest 2: 220 seeks/s

hdparm -t shows:
guest 1: 100 MB/s
guest 2: 160 MB/s

The host numbers are the ones of the physical drives:
seekmark:
/dev/sdb: 75 seeks/s
/dev/sdc: 75 seeks/s

hdparm -t:
/dev/sdb: 140 MB/s
/dev/sdc: 140 MB/s

The physical numbers are consistent and what I would expect to see from the 
sata drives.
The guests are minimal centos 6 installations so after booting they have 
virtually no processes running that could influence the benchmarks in any 
significant way. The hosts system is installed on /dev/sda so /dev/sd(b|c) 
are not influenced by the host system either.
The entire setup is arranged to make benchmarking mostly reliable.
If there were minor temporary fluctuations I would blame some external 
process but differences of almost 100% that are consistent for the lifetime 
of the virtual machine do not fit such a scenario.

[CentOS-es] pregunta editor vim

2011-10-10 Thread victor santana
Esto lo debería de enviar a vim y no a centos, pero a ver si alguien sabría
decirme.
Tengo un fichero .csv, el cual es leido por un script en perl. Sé que hay
algún caracter extraño en alguna linea ya que no me lo lee como antes.
Así que mi pregunta es:
como puedo decirle a vim que me muestre en pantalla los códigos de: salto de
linea, tabuladores, espacios, etc. Resumiendo que me lo muestre de forma no
visual.

[CentOS] trace?

I have installed an announcement application on my centos 6.0 server
that calls for putting specific voice announcement files under
/usr/local/srf/bin/prompt to be played in response to certain
conditions occurred . There are a huge number of files in the
announcement directory and it seems that just one of these voice files
is corrupt . Can you please let me know how can I trace in real time
to see which application is going to use this folder and which of
these files will be accessed at the moment ? My goal is to find that
corrupted voice file in real time .

Re: [CentOS] Mock - Problems building Centos5 package on Centos6 - where can I ask for advice ?

2011-10-10 Thread Morgan Cox
Hi trey.

I would prefer being able to build my own packages rather than rely on an
external repo.(that was I can always build what ever version I need to).

Its not the building of the RPM it the use of mock thats failing.

What is the best way of sending you the source RPM.

  From the look of the error the 'mock centos5' is missing these files :-
 
  /usr/share/aclocal/ltoptions.m4
  /usr/share/aclocal/ltsugar.m4
  /usr/share/aclocal/ltversion.m4
  /usr/share/aclocal/lt~obsolete.m4

  Centos5 obviously doesn't have that version...
 
  I noticed in the .spec file it has
 
 
  ---
  %build
  # aclocal workaround - to be improved
  cat `aclocal
  --print-ac-dir`/{libtool,ltoptions,ltsugar,ltversion,lt~obsolete}.m4

  build/libtool.m4
  ---
 
  It also has - from the original .spec file I based it on:-
 
  BuildRequires: bzip2, perl, libtool = 1.4.3, gcc-c++
 
  I have libtool installed in the mock enviroment ...
 
  Anyone know what i'm doing wrong ?

 If your wanting PHP-5.3 for CentOS5 you may want to look at the IUS repo.
 They provide PHP 5.2 and 5.3 for CentOS5.

 If you send me your SRPM offlist Ill try to build it on my Mock

Ahh, I see now. There is no active addons repository, or at least there

  is corrupt . Can you please let me know how can I trace in real time
  to see which application is going to use this folder and which of
  these files will be accessed at the moment ? My goal is to find that
  corrupted voice file in real time .
 
 How about something like this:
 watch -n 1 lsof /path/to/files

Or maybe:

The php53 package from the standard repo does not work well *, so you
are better off using a 3rd party repo.  General consensus is that the
IUS repo (http://iuscommunity.org/) is the best one to use.

I would remove the atomic repo, install IUS, then install/update php from there.

Side point: Running arbitrary code from the web is a very bad idea, so
you should never do something like this:
 wget -q -O - http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic | sh   # BAD!


* It's not so good because it does not provide proper rpm tags that
let other rpms know that php is installed.  It announces itself as
php53, and most package looks for php, so they can't find it.

[CentOS] Broadcom NetXtremeII and CentOS 6

2011-10-10 Thread stwe22
Has anyone managed to get CentOS 6 x86_64 running on a server with a Broadcom 
NetXtremeII BCM5709 network adaptor? If so have you seen any issues with the 
network freezing? On booting everything works fine then the network will just 
stop - can't ping anything. If we manually restart the network service it will 
run again for a few seconds/minutes before hanging again. We have even 
installed the latest bnx2 drivers (netxtreme2-6.2.23) as supplied by the server 
manufacturer - problem remains. Any ideas/thoughts would be greatly

I haven't tried CentOS 6 yet, but I have had this problem with CentOS 5.
Try this in /etc/modprobe.conf:

options bnx2 disable_msi=1

and reboot. This is a fix on all of the systems that I have tried it on.

[CentOS] Deciding when to do system encryption

2011-10-10 Thread Bade Iriabho
Hello All,

I have read that system encryption slows a computer down. However, I am more
interested in when to use it. Consider the following scenarios:

1. You have a server in a secured server room on a rack (is there any need
and advantage to having system encryption in this particular case)
2. you have a server sitting in an office that is accessible by everyone
2. You have a desktop
3. You have a laptop

So my questions are: What situations/scenarios do you consider before
implementing system encryption? I guess at the end of the day, I am trying
to figure out the best practices.

Regards,
B.I.

   Daylight Saving Time and other time changes
   Local time changes of less than three hours, such as those caused
by the start or end of Daylight Saving Time,
   are handled specially.  This only applies to jobs that run at a
specific time and jobs that  are  run  with  a
   granularity greater than one hour.  Jobs that run more frequently
are scheduled normally.

   If  time  has  moved forward, those jobs that would have run in
the interval that has been skipped will be run
   immediately.  Conversely, if time has moved backward, care is
taken to avoid running jobs twice.

   Time changes of more than 3 hours are considered to be
corrections to the clock or timezone, and the new  time
   is used immediately.

[CentOS] CentOS Summit?

2011-10-10 Thread Kay Williams
Hello,

I am writing to gauge interest in holding a gathering for CentOS users, admins 
and developers? A conference is a fun and efficient way for like-minded 
individual to meet, learn about each other, share stories, exchange ideas, 
provide support and friendship, and come up with even better ideas for the 
future.

If there is sufficient interest, I would be willing to help organize. Perhaps 
an event could be held around the same time as other relevant conferences such 
as LinuxCon or OSCon.

Let me know your thoughts.

P.S. By way of background, I have been working with CentOS since the early 
days, but prior to that I worked at Microsoft for many years where it was often 
my role to organize and present at technology summits. I am sure we can come up 
with a format that is fun, relevant and interesting.

http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/centos-rhel-redhat-usrbinld-cannot-findlc-error/:

You need to install the glibc-static package. It contains the C library 
static libraries for -static linking. You don't need these, unless you 
link statically, which is highly discouraged. But mini_sendmail is 
specially used for chrooted setup. To install this login as root and 
type the following command:
# yum install glibc-static

Does this help? It only took me 30 seconds on Google.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 5.7 PHP upgrade

 The php53 package from the standard repo does not work well *, so you
 are better off using a 3rd party repo.  General consensus is that the
 IUS repo (http://iuscommunity.org/) is the best one to use.

 I would remove the atomic repo, install IUS, then install/update php from 
 there.

Atomic Rocket Turtle is an add-on repository for people running the 
PLESK control panel, so they can upgrade their version of php from that 
which PLESK installs by default.


 * It's not so good because it does not provide proper rpm tags that
 let other rpms know that php is installed.  It announces itself as
 php53, and most package looks for php, so they can't find it.

Which is exactly the problem that plagues the php53 packages upstream 
have supplied for EL5. IUS is about the best bet to resolve this issue

Re: [CentOS] Deciding when to do system encryption

2011-10-10 Thread Paul Heinlein

 Hello All,

 I have read that system encryption slows a computer down. However, I am more
 interested in when to use it. Consider the following scenarios:

 1. You have a server in a secured server room on a rack (is there any need
 and advantage to having system encryption in this particular case)
 2. you have a server sitting in an office that is accessible by everyone
 2. You have a desktop
 3. You have a laptop

 So my questions are: What situations/scenarios do you consider 
 before implementing system encryption? I guess at the end of the 
 day, I am trying to figure out the best practices.

The real question is your risk. The situation or scenario is at best a 
mitigation of the risk.

That is, how valuable to is the data on any of those machines? How 
much of your time, money, and/or reputation be consumed if your data 
are stolen? What will the impact on you (and your customers) be if 
your data's confidentiality, integrity, or availability is threatened? 
Who are the threats: employees? random visitors to your office? 
thieves? business competitors?

Answer those questions first.

At that point, you're in a better position to assess the 
vulnerabilities of each platform. You might decide that a locked room 
in a locked building (e.g., a server room) is sufficient mitigation 
against your threats -- or not.

I have a hard time imagining a situation where data on a business 
laptop should NOT be encrypted, but it may be that a good backup is 
all you need.

Re: [CentOS] Odd issue with C6 and rsh

2011-10-10 Thread James A. Peltier
Okay, I'm getting frustrated here.  C6 has been a bit of a bear.  It looks like 
I am also having trouble with rsh on C6 with just @core as well.  At least with 
the NIS stuff I was able to determine rather easily why it wasn't working, but 
with rsh on workstation working and only on my server with @core, I can't seem 
to figure out what the package is that I am missing to make rsh on C6 work.  
Hints please...

Tell that to the engineering software vendors who require the service in order 
to properly operate.  If I didn't already know that, obviously I wouldn't be 
posting this as I use SSH keys for most other services.

I always encrypt the hdd of my laptops, I don't notice much overhead;
on servers I encrypt partitions with very sensitive information.
