This increases the size of /boot/kernel to about 67Mbytes. You will need twice this if you will eventually back this up to kernel.old on your next install. If you have a shortage of room in your root partition, you should add -DINSTALL_NODEBUG to your make arguments or add INSTALL_NODEBUG="yes" to your /etc/make.conf. I concur that the 235 MB size of an amd64 8.0 kernel is a bit of a surprise. An i386 kernel is a mere 135 MB.

Any > reason why that would break ntpd? I'm afraid that most of the salient details are inaccessible at work, but I found this necessary to get sort of acceptable[*] time keeping in FreeBSD guests under VMware on Windows. Run a NTP server on the host. I used the Trimble NTP implementation, which I believe is no longer available. Disable Windows Time service. The last thing you want is more than one time adjustment mechanism - they fight, horribly. Run ntpd -b every minute on the guest against the host. Set VMware tools to not sync time. Make several non-standard settings in the guest's .vmx configuration file which disable time syncronisation at various points not covered by the VMware tools setting. Information found in some VMware technical documents. I'll dig this out tomorrow. End result - time skips +/- a few milliseconds each minute, and takes a while to sort itself out when the guest is suspended over a host reboot. [*] I've a thing about time. If all you want is a clock which is no slower than a minute out, and always goes forwards, ignore all of the above, don't run NTP on the guest, and set VMware tools to syncronise clocks. This is adequate for many.

I'll try using INVARIANTS, as I'd much prefer a panic and automatic reboot rather than creeping death for this server which is only attended 06:00-22:00 weekdays yet is a critical point in our 24*7 monitoring. Sigh. Champagne tastes on a beer budget. Other background information (from memory as I can't access it from here): I'm not using unionfs / nullfs. I am using MFS and softupdates. NFS is in occassional use. NTFS is not used. The server is ancient. A 4 way Zeon, state of the art in 1998. The problem has gone from "absent" through "reproducible if you try hard enough" to "strikes according to Murphy" through 5.5-STABLE to 6.2-STABLE. Once the sendmail milter ABI damage is fixed I'll bring the machine up to date - it is also the build box for a dozen or so machines running something close to 6.2-RELEASE, and I'd rather not upgrade all of them them when the next ClamAV release appears. If / when it hangs again, I'll include more information and maybe even raise a real PR. -- Adrian Wontroba It's always a long day; 86400 doesn't fit into a short. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

6.2-STABLE deadlock?
At work, amoungst my stable of old computers running FreeBSD, I have a Fujitsu M800 - a 4 Zeon SMP processor with 4 GB of memory. This primarily runs Nagios and a small and lightly used MySQL database, along with a few inbound FTP transfers per minute. It has a Mylex card based disc subsystem, ruling out crash dumps. At some point during 5.5-STABLE this machine started to occasionally hang while performing its daily "application" housekeeping - closing and restarting Apache and Nagios, and dumping the database. Upgrading to 6.2-STABLE appeared to solve the problem, with no problems visible while running 1,000 cycles of the sequence which seemed to provoke the problem. cvsup for this version of the kernel and userland was run at 01:20 GMT on 06 March. However, shortly after 15:15 last Sunday afternoon the machine hung again "out of the blue". kdb diagnostics were taken some 12 hours later, and look somewhat odd. Maybe it was left to fester for too long. ps etc output at http://www.stade.co.uk/crash/console which contains boot to boot serial console output, including some output from test cycles. I'd be grateful for any expert comments on the ps etc output. Supporting stuff.

I have an old SMP machine at work which sometimes does something similar during its daily housekeeping, where Apache and Nagios are bounced and a small MySQL database dumped. It sometimes appears to hang during the database dump. The debugger shows many processes waiting for UFS. I suspect that the problem starts several minutes earlier. All of the following help to keep the problem away: Upgrading from a several months old 5-STABLE to 6-STABLE. Inserting 60 second delays at various points. Disabling SMP. No core dump available (Mylex disk controller). My next diagnostic step will be a serial console. -- Adrian Wontroba The biggest mistake you can make is to believe that you are working for someone else. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Setting up the host as an NTP server and running ntpdate once a minute seems to have sufficed to keep time accurate enough for my needs. I got my clues from VMWare documentation . Other problems I've seen: FreeBSD won't even boot if there is a SCSI controller attached to the guest. I still had my boot drive attached to IDE. The kernel sometimes (I've seen this twice in a couple of months) loops outputting a message which might indicate that it disliked the disk drive and has detached it. With a NT guest, iozone sometimes (after hours of disk battering) reports that it read something other than what it had written. I've not seen iozone do this on the MS 2003 host, on the same disks. The last two make me fear that the IDE emulation sometimes glitches. -- Adrian Wontroba Prof:So the American government went to IBM to come up with a data encryption standard and they came up with ...

True, but some us are blessed with a collection of assorted ancient cast off servers, and can not justify to money focused management a test system for every type of production server / function.

Admittedly, there was a problem with SMP in 5.3-RELEASE, but that is long behind us. With 5.4 it should work almost out of the box (modulo a kernel build, and I seem to recall discussion about including SMP kernels in future releases).

Re: [kern/60555] vinum volume as a swap device not possible on FreeBSD 5.2.1

There is a lengthy thread about this in -current (which I sometimes read, but don't run). The situation seems to be: * swap is supported by geom in later 5.* releases. * Other types of disk usage are soon to be moved to geom. So vinum soon won't work for ufs either. * Vinum does not yet support geom, but should in due course. * No release 5.* release will be called "production" until it has a working software mirror system and upgrade path. Looks like downgrading to 5.1 (or even the current production release (4.9, soon to be 4.10)), is your best short-term option. Or do without mirrored swap. -- Adrian Wontroba The blood on the leading edge is often your own ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I don't recall ever having anything broken by mergemaster. I have broken things for myself by failing to drive mergemaster properly, e.g. my not noticing that a file (i)nstalled by mergemaster should have been (m)erged, to preserve local changes. The incidence of this has much reduced since I adopted the convention of flagging files I have modified with a "# MODIFIED " line near the top. -- Adrian Wontroba To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message

I cvsup the whole thing, maintaining my own local copy of the entire repository. Source, ports, doc, gnats, www. No refuse files at all (not got round to it). I normally use a 64K ISDN connection to my ISP, and the cvsup server is fairly "close" to them. Line utilisation is close to 100% only when rsyncing big files in the www collection (book.html etc). Most of the time line utilisation is very much less. Elapsed time is bearable. Of course, if you start with nothing, the first cvsup takes a while - 7 hours with two channels (128K) going, close to flat out as I recall. > A satisfied dialup cvsup user, Me too. I started with CTM, moved to checking out "stable" from a cvsup mirror, and on to having my own repository. Its all a bit heavy on disk space, but that is fairly plentiful nowadays.
