That's awesome!

The files you need to edit are the following:

- Rolling notes of CentOS installer

https://git.centos.org/centos/Artwork/blob/c8/f/rnotes/PO/zh-CN.po
https://git.centos.org/centos/Artwork/blob/c8/f/rnotes/PO/zh-HK.po

https://git.centos.org/centos/Artwork/blob/c8/f/html/PO/zh-HK.po
https://git.centos.org/centos/Artwork/blob/c8/f/html/PO/zh-TW.po

To make the changes, you probably want to clone the repo, fill them
with translations and push the changes back to the repository. In case
you don't have push access, you can send me the files directly to me
and request push access to Fabian so you can take care of these files

If this is a recent sever (ivybridge/haswell/broadwell) then I’ve seen the
“edac” kernel module prevent SEL from showing faults when a

But we can blame systemd for the cryptic message

  A stop job is running

Surely systemd knows what service it is waiting for,
why doesn't it tell us?

Right - before systemd, any old init script could also block shutdown.

There's a "magic" thing systemd does now - hit C-A-D seven times in two
seconds and it'll stop what it is waiting for and just go ahead and
reboot.  Will kill anything not shut down, but at least it'll still try
to cleanly unmount filesystems and such I believe.

I'm not sure it's right to blame systemd.  Systemd asked nicely for
the service to shutdown.  The service didn't, probably because the
update change something and pulled the rug out from beneath it.
Systemd then waited a bit to make sure the service wasn't just being
slow, and finally gave up and forcibly killed it.  I think this is a
reasonable approach to killing a misbehaving service while trying to
minimize data-loss, and the timeout can be configured.

This hasn't happened to me recently, but I think I've tried Ctl-C and
Ctl-Alt-Del without much success.  That leaves the Big Red Switch
(which is mostly small and black these days).

It's not as rare as you might think, especially at point-release time.
There are often new dependencies when packages get updates beyond just
bug patching, sometimes an installed package might get obsoleted by a
different package (can't remember if that shows up in check-update),
etc.

That seems unlikely. Foe one, I've seen that... but I *always* see entries
in the log about the oom-killer being invoked. For another, this isn't a
compute node, it's *only* a fileserver, serving projects, home
directories, and backups (home-grown b/u, uses rsync), and backups don't
start until well after midnight, and as we're business-hours only, there
was less usage, and it does have 256G RAM

otoh, its pretty rare that an update has a new dependency...if the
package is installed, its existing dependencies are also installed, and if
they have updates, check-update would show them all, would it not?

All our boxes have NFS mounted files systems - and usually this isn't a 
problem - reboots work without an issue

In this case, it appeared to be 'stuck' on a local file bind mounted 
over a file on an NFS mounted file system

But that isn't really the point - I don't really want to have to wait a 
maximum of 30 minutes for the reboot to give up waiting for 'whatever'

Poking about a bit, I see that /usr/lib/systemd/system/reboot.target has 
the line:

  JobTimeoutSec=30min

(there is a similar JobTimeoutSec=30min in poweroff.target)

I'm guessing I could create something like 
/etc/systemd/system/reboot.target.d/override.conf containing something like:

  [Unit]
  JobTimeoutSec=3min

Now I need to see if I can reproduce the issue and see if this setting 
works ...

It seems unlikely. It's a 4U server, with 36 disks (and the dual root
disks), in a machine room, and ipmitool sel list shows nada, nor are there
any warnings, as I've seen on other systems occasionally, that the CPU is
overheating, and is being throttled.

Looks like:

might be relevant?  I recall seeing sometime back the need to either 
update the ius-release RPM, or manually update the repo location, 
probably due to the new CDN setup they're using.

Re: [CentOS] system unresponsive

2019-05-22 Thread Scott Silverman
In the past I've found that the console may have blanked (due to time) and
when the system locked up/hung it won't unblank. Booting with
"consoleblank=0" on the kernel command line will ensure that whatever is
printed to the console (oops, panic, etc) will be there for you to see when
you connect.

I've had intermittent success in that type of situation with the SysRq
key(s), see  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key . They do
require that you have it configured/enabled ahead of time. If you access
the console over a BMC/IPMI KVM session it can be very difficult, if not
impossible, to enter the keystroke as well.

Good luck,
Scott

Yes, NFS integration with systemd is broken by default, at least it was
still the case when I last checked.
If you want it to work correctly, you have to add
'x-systemd.requires=network-online.target' as NFS mount option.

Clearly, how should systemd know that NFS won't work without network? I
knew you agree :-)

However, why do you say the system is not dead when you plug in a console..
but there is nothing on the screen and it doesn't respond to
control-alt-delete. To me that sounds like 'dead'. Usually the cpu is
hardlocked or the hardware went into 'over-heat' and put everything in a
deep sleep hoping it would cool down but never wake up.

[CentOS] system unresponsive

2019-05-22 Thread mark
Ok, we used to get this occasionally on cluster nodes, and we just got it
on a fileserver (very bad). The system is discovered to be unresponsive:
it doesn't ping, and plugging a console in, you can see that it's not
dead, but there nothing at all on the screen, nor does it respond to even
. The only answer is to power cycle it; it comes up fine.

Nothing in /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/messages. No abrts I can find. sar
tells me it went unredponsive between 18:10 and 10:20 yesterday. Note that
there are no further entries in sar, either, for yesterday, after the
event, and nothing till I power cycled it.

[CentOS] Bypassing 'A stop job is running' when rebooting CentOS 7

2019-05-22 Thread James Pearson
I'm currently trying to reboot a CentOS 7.5 workstation (to complete an 
upgrade to 7.6), but it is 'stuck' while shutting down with 'A stop job 
is running for ...' - the counter initially gave a limit of '1min 30s' - 
but each time it reaches that limit, it just adds on ~90 seconds to the 
limit ...

Currently the limit is '25min 33s'

I'm in no hurry to have this workstation operational, but I guess at 
some point I will have to power cycle it ...

Does anyone know how to bypass this? - or at least stop it increasing 
the limit each time it is reached?

It does seems rather pointless to keep increasing the limit like this ...

Starting a guest with libvirt works fine, libvirt is able to find the
qemu binary. (Well, libxl can...)

Here is an osstest flight starting an HVM guest with libvirt:
http://logs.test-lab.xenproject.org/osstest/logs/136701/test-amd64-amd64-libvirt-qemuu-debianhvm-amd64/info.html

Maybe the issue is that I need to rebuild `libvirt-python' and
`virt-manager' packages?

I can certainly move the binary from "/usr/lib64" to "/usr/lib", and
hope it doesn't break anything, with Xen 4.10 packages the qemu binary
is in /usr/lib64. But to be honest I don't know which is best for CentOS
between "lib64" and "lib".

Thanks,
