Re: [CentOS] auth_changepassword Resolved !!

2012-04-15 Thread Prabhpal S. Mavi
Dear Markus Falb,

Thanks for your response, the problem has been resolved. It was due to
document root directive.

DocumentRoot was /var/www/html/ whereas cacti folder was located at
following /var/www/html/cacti. which seems correct and should have work.

Apache was finding auth_changepassword.php under DocumentRoot (html
directory).

change the document root to as following /var/www/html/cacti fixed the
problem. everything is fine but there are other little problems. poller is
unable to generate rrd files. etc, anyways.

Thanks for your support.
Prabhpal

 i installed cacti on CentOS 6.2. every thing went smooth and i can see
 the
 login page as well.

 due to security reason cacti has to change the default password
 (admin/admin) when i enter the default password i get the following
 error.

 The requested URL /auth_changepassword.php was not found on this server.

 First I would look in apache's access and error log.
 That could give you a hint where to look further.

Apparently I need to install apache2-dev. Apparently there isn't such available

 Hi;
 I am trying to change the default version of python on my centos 5.7 box and

 but when I fire up mod_wsgi, it complains that it can't import os. Please 
 advise.

hard to tell without error message, but I guess that mod_wsgi is linked
to your old python and wont work with another python. Maybe you have to
recompile mod_wsgi too?

Try installing httpd-devel. for searchin package names use yum search.

 Yeah, that helps. Frankly, my use of vcenter has spoiled me, thinking I might
 try and find a way to utilize my desktop for esxi and work off a laptop...

 A colleague has kvm running so I will look at it...


If you like ESXi and have a windows box to run the client, why not use
the free version?   In any case I would probably use a 'native' remote
access method (freenx/NX for linux, VNC or remote desktop for windows)
instead of the client console once everything is installed.   Or for
occasional use, VMware player is OK - again using native remote access
methods since it ties the client console to the host.

Re: [CentOS] SSD for boot drive and OS

 There is a significant mortality rate with consumer grade SSDs. If you
 are going to use one, pair it up in a software RAID1 with some matching
 partitions on the hard drive and then adjust the RAID to read
 preferentially from the SSD. See
 http://superuser.com/questions/293144/combining-ssd-and-hard-disk-in-software-raid1
 for some links explaining how to do that.

 I'm just thinking... I wonder if it would be possible to somehow replicate the
 OS on both the SSD and the hard drive, such that you could just change the 
 boot
 device in the bios to point to one or the other.  Which wouldn't exactly be a
 raid (with the overhead that entails) but just a change of boot device as
 required.

I don't know if there have been any real tests, but I'd expect that
for most real-world use you would get much better performance if you
spent the same money on additional RAM instead, since the OS will
automatically use it for disk cache.   There might be exceptions for
specific applications where you could tune the SSD to hold things the
application needs but that might otherwise be evicted from cache.

Re: [CentOS] Virtualization in CentOS 6

2012-04-15 Thread Joseph L. Casale
If you like ESXi and have a windows box to run the client, why not use
the free version?

Under the original use case where I had to use the desktop to work also, I
couldn't.

   In any case I would probably use a 'native' remote
access method (freenx/NX for linux, VNC or remote desktop for windows)
instead of the client console once everything is installed.   Or for
occasional use, VMware player is OK - again using native remote access
methods since it ties the client console to the host.

I'm comfortable doing everything I need to via ssh into the esxi server so I
don't need the client really. All the Linux guests are console based, and for
the windows guests I certainly use rdp if need be.

The kvm option proposed earlier is surely a backup.

Thanks!

how do you install a windows guest on ESXi without the console provided 
by the GUI vSphere Client ?

2012-04-15 Thread Joseph L. Casale

Painfully:) Actually its not that bad,

1. Setup a firewall rule for a port range to utilize multiple vnc consoles.
2. Take a copy of an existing platform compatible guests vmx, edit and create
the new vmdk, give it a unique vnc port, name, max boot wait etc.
3. Register it:
  vim-cmd solo/registervm path_to_vmx
4. Boot it:
  vim-cmd vmsvc/power.on id
5. Get the waiting message:
  vim-cmd vmsvc/message id
6. Answer the message:
  vim-cmd vmsvc/message id _vmx1 #
6. Connect via vnc.

Works for me:)
