Ideally I'd like a complete machine, but a jail would do too. I can find plenty of Linux-based offerings, but the only one I can find with FreeBSD is in Germany and requires me to be resident in Germany. Can anybody point me to one that I, as an Australian resident, can use? Here's a list of FreeBSD-based hosters: http://www.freebsd.org/commercial/isp.html Is anyone here using RootBSD? I recently signed up for a Xen VPS setup at RootBSD. It seems to be working fine, at least for what I want out of it. I'm using it as a "hot-spare, off-site backup" for a service that I run, so what I'm doing is probably much less demanding than what most people would want from it. But so far I've been able to set things up the way I want, and it's worked fine. My biggest problem so far is that I haven't had enough spare time to work on it! I have no idea if they would take customers from outside the US, but they have been pretty responsive to questions I have sent to them via email. I see they've updated their site since I signed up: http://www.rootbsd.net/ I'm currently with JohnCompanies. Overall, it's been a positive experience, though I wish they offered FreeBSD 7. Beta testing for it was supposed to begin last month, but so far no news. My Xen VPS is setup with FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE. When I signed up, they were just starting to try Xen-based setups instead of jails. It looks like they've officially rolled that out as a service to everyone. My main concern is disk space; I have 2GB for ~$26 per month. For the same price at RootBSD you could get almost eight times as much. The question is how reliable are they? I can't find any information on their site about where the data center is or the exact system specifications. Machines are located in two different datacenters in Raleigh, NC (or at least, that's what they told me!). In my case, I just wanted a machine located far enough away from Troy, NY that any problem which took out my office machine would not take out my "off-site" machine. North Carolina sounded far enough away to me! At the moment, my machine has been up for 35 days, and at that time the reason it went down was because I rebooted it after making some changes. I've had the system for maybe two months, and haven't had any problems with it. Remember though, I haven't been pushing it all that much. Basically do automatic backups to it at night, and then may ssh into it to test a few things a week. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn= [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Systems Programmer or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rensselaer Polytechnic Instituteor [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

My question: Is there a better way to duplicate a drive including boot info? The way I've done that in the past is to backup the source system with dump for /, /var, and /usr. Then do a minimal install on the clone, setting up the appropriate partition sizes. That is quicker for me than trying to remember fdisk and bsdlabel options. It also avoids the embarrassing situation of getting source and destination disks mixed up when they're both on the same machine. On the clone, restore from the original dump files over the new system with "restore -ruf dumpfile".

I tried running FreeBSD using Parallels a while back and didn't get very far. JC is using Jails. An easy way to tell is if you run 'ifconfig' and don't see the loopback address (127.0.0.1). This is a restriction of the jails system. Another hint is if you run 'mount' and see that the device mounted as / doesn't exist in /dev. The main disadvantage of jails is that you cannot mess with the kernel, but otherwise I think it's actually a better solution, in my opinion. Less resources are wasted with jails than with a full VM.

JC has been fine so far, and I asked them to include me in their FreeBSD 7 beta testing when it opens up. I don't think they have a schedule posted for when that will start.

Really, the better way is to use fdisk/bsdlabel/newfs to create the identical file systems and boot/label blocks. Then use dump(8) piped to restore(8) to populate them with the data from the old file systems. It is generally better than making a byte-by-byte copy with dd unless you are experimenting with some oddities of unformatted disk access or whatever. Also, using dump/restore will allow for those small differences from disk to disk that are usually there without causing the problems dd copies of whole disks can have. jerry > > Brad Mettee > PC HotShots, Inc. > Baltimore, MD > (410) 426-7617 > > -> Let us bring out the *Power* of your PCs. <- > -> Custom Business Software Solutions since 1991 <- > > visit http://www.pchotshots.com for information about our company. > > ___ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Mount both drives on same machine, right? Then move one to the other? I think you will find its not all that hard to build the 2nd machine from install CDs.

It looks like I can use DD to copy an entire drive, but it's a 500G drive and that's going to take a really long time (especially since it's brand new with no data besides base OS). My question: Is there a better way to duplicate a drive including boot info? Brad Mettee PC HotShots, Inc.

Re: perl WITH_THREADS= yes or no?
Hi Anton. I'm no expert here, but I found that installing perl without threads works for the vast majority of ports. In one occasion I needed to recompile perl with thread because another port required so. Also, I remember that using WITH_THREADS=yes came together with a warning that it could break other applications requiring perl. So, if not a requirement, I'd stick with perl without threads.

At least I know I'm not the only one to have run into this oddity. I'm not that knowledgeable of inodes. My understanding is they are destroyed once a file is no longer in use. Is that correct? Is there any sort of history kept of file system activity that would identify what filename was identified by the inumbers listed in dmesg.today? Or is that vain hope? This is a 6.2 RELEASE system. (Looks like it's time to upgrade to 7.0 STABLE.) I am not in any which way certain changing major revision numbers will affect the file system in any which way. I am also not very knowledgeable in regards to inodes, but I do know that they can run out before disk space does. From what I understand, 1MB of filespace will take up X inodes. If 1MB of file size is fragmented, it could take up X multiplied by N number of inodes, that could include a large portion of wasted whitespace. Please correct me if I am wrong. I wouldn't be the one to correct you. My knowledge of inodes is rudimentary at best. :-) Off the top of my head, with no testing or researching behind me, what happens if: - stop mysqld - note perms of filesystem - cp -R /var/db /another/location/with/space - rm -r /var/db/* - fsck /dev/location-of-var - cp -R /copy/of/db/dir /var/db - reset perms - start mysqld ... does that free up some inodes? As you can see from the df -i I posted (to which you responded), inode exhaustion is not an issue. I'm leaning toward some sort of bug in mysql version 5.0.51 which creates a temporary file (in the wrong place) and then doesn't release it until it exhausts the space on the drive. In any case, I'm going to report it to the mysql folks as such and hope they can figure out what the cause is. -- Paul Schmehl As if it wasn't already obvious, my opinions are my own and not those of my employer. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

It was originally backed up by another 1.5TB filer taking snapshots every few hours. After a few years, the customer decided it was "too safe" so they used the 2nd filer for something else. A month later, we had a double disk failure in the same volume. The NetApp freaked out and rebooted, but when it did it marked one disk dead, and the other as fine. Since there was a hot spare, it started to attempt a rebuild. It took 9 hours for a 72G disk, and the 1/2 failed drive sounded like it was putting the head through the media with lead shot in it. The filer performed at about 1/2 speed during that time. The SECOND that it finished, and the software claimed that the array was in optimal mode, we immediately pulled the bad disk out and replaced it with a fresh disk. That rebuild went fine. Pulled the failed disk, and put another disk in for hot spare. Not sure if its a testimony to NetApp, or our and the customers luck. They had specifically not wanted backups, and rebuilding the data would have taken months, many man hours, and loss of revenue to the site. Ever since then, I try to get disks made at different times and different batches. You figure that if they were MADE around the same time, they will most likely DIE around the same time. :) Tuc ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Cross platform building best practices (building 6 on 7)
Hello Folks: I've done a lot of Googling and scouring the lists about this particular subject so I apologize for rehashing it. However, I'm still confused on what's the best way to perform BSD cross platform builds. Ideally what I want to have is an environment whereby I can build a 6.1-RELEASE tree on a 7.0-RELEASE box. I thought originally I could check out a 6.1 release version, perform make world, and then use the output of that build as either a basis for a jail or a toolchain. However, as noted by previous threads, 6.x doesn't build on a 7.x due to gcc4/binutils compatibility issues (please correct me if I'm wrong). I then thought I could potentially download a patched binutils, copy it into src/contrib/binutils and that would potentially fix it. No dice (and I'm still debugging why since this binutils package DOES build outside of the make world infrastructure without issue, this very well could be pilot error on my part since I didn't update the VERSION string and didn't trim the source files as per the FreeBSD-deleteList etc.). I THEN thought if I build/install a gcc-3.x/bintuils toolchain I could complie a 6.x on a 7.x machine. Well I haven't done that yet since at this point I believe I'm diverged from the path of FreeBSD build enlightenment! Moreover, if would be NICE if I could bootstrap the normal dev tools from the exiting make world build tree. I'm not yet ready for a lot of hackery on the build tree without asking around. :D! Does anyone due cross-platform builds (without host virtualization)?

My guess is that the rebuild failure is due to unreadable sectors on one (or more) of the original three drives. I recently had this happen to me on an 8 x 1 TB RAID-5 array on a Highpoint RocketRAID 2340 controller. For some unknown reason two drives developed unreadable sectors within hours of each other. To make a long story short, the way I "fixed" this was to: 1. Used a tool I got from Highpoint tech-support to re-init the array information (so the array was no longer marked as broken). 2. Unplugged both drives and hooked them up to another computer using a regular SATA controller. 3. One of the drives was put through a complete "recondition" cycle(a). 4. The other drive was put through a partial "recondition" cycle(b). 5. I hooked up both drives to the 2340 controller again. The BIOS immediately marked the array as degraded (because it didn't recognize the wiped drive as part of the array), and I could re-add the wiped drive so a rebuild of the array could start. 6. I finally ran a "zpool scrub" on the tank, and restored the few files that had checksum errors. (a) I tried to run a SMART long selftest, but it failed. I then completely wiped the drive by writing zeroes to the entire surface, allowing the firmware to remap the bad sectors. After this procedure the long selftest succeeded. I finally used a diagnostic program from the drive vendor (Western Digital) to again verify that the drive was working properly. (b) The SMART long selftest failed the first time, but after running a surface scan using the diagnostic program from Western Digital the selftest passed. I'm pretty sure the diagnostic program remapped the bad sector, replacing it with a blank one. At least the program warned me to back up all data before starting the surface scan. Alternatively I could have used dd (with offset) to write to just the failed sector (available in the SMART selftest log). If I were you I would run all three drives through a SMART long selftest. I'm sure you'll find that at least one of them will fail the selftest. Use something like SpinRite 6 to recover the drive, or use dd / dd_rescue to copy the data to a fresh drive. Once all three of the original drives pass a long selftest the array should be able to finish a rebuild using a fourth (blank) drive. By the way, don't try to use SpinRite 6 on 1 TB drives, it will fail halfway through with a division-by-zero error. I haven't tried it on any 500 GB drives yet. /Daniel Eriksson ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Well yes, this is precisely the reason why we use a SIGHUP (equivalent to "apachectl restart") instead of a SIGUSR1 (apachectl graceful). We don't really care about a few broken client connections since the logs are rotated at a quiet time. Of course, YMMV. regards, Ruben ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
