Re: [CentOS] Anyone with RedHat Subscription?

2019-07-02 Thread Scott Silverman
Their "resolution" is: Update to RHEL 7 to get the more recent ethtool
output format.

You should be able to build a newer ethtool from source (or depending on
your NIC manufacturer, they may supply a tool with more recent features.
Solarflare, for example, provides 'sfctool', basically new ethtool features
for old kernels).


Thanks,

Scott

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

I don't know who "that guy" is, but the utility is available directly from
Broadcom (renamed from their purchaser avago, who purchased lsi, if I have
my history correct).
