[ilugd] Share your views with LFY: CommunitySpeak Episode 2

2006-06-30 Thread Niraj Sahay
Hello all,
 
Greetings from the Linux For You team!
 
As you all know, last month we launched a new initiative called 
CommunitySpeak where we pose a question to various ILUG mailing lists 
and publish the top five responses (selected by our technical editors) 
in the magazine. Thanks to all those who responded to last month's 
question on "why a majority of the world's top 10 supercomputers are 
powered by Linux". The best five among the responses received are to be 
published in the July 2006 issue of LFY.
 
The selected responses were sent by Vishnu Vyas (Chennai), S R Parthan 
(Chennai), R Subramanian (Chennai), Manu Konchady (Bangalore) and P 
Sriram (Chennai). Thanks again for your participation.
 
This month we have chosen the topic: "What would make a Windows user 
pick up a Linux magazine?"
 
No, this is not a marketing tactic. We are *really* curious. What would 
make Windows users pick up a Linux magazine? How can we convince them to 
read about and adopt Linux and other free and open source software? 
Would they be interested in reading about free business software than 
run on Windows?
 
What's your take on this? Our eyes and ears are wide open and we are 
waiting to listen to your ideas. Please write to us at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with a CC to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
The top five responses will be published in the August 2006 issue of 
Linux for You.
 
Look forward to your responses.
 
Thanks,
 
Janani Gopalakrishnan, Freelance Writer
Atul Goel, Asst. Associate Editor, LFY


P.S: We have not tagged this as commercial as we feel that there is no 
business involved in this information. But if you feel that it should be 
tagged please let us know so that we can do it from the next time.

1. Do a 'cat /proc/mdstatus' and check whether md still thinks you have
two hard disk in the raid setup.
2. Assuming it shows three or more hard disk with one in failed status.
Run 'mdadm /dev/md0 -r /dev/hdd1' which should remove the failed device
from the RAID array.
3. Run 'mdadm /dev/md0 -a /dev/hdd1' which should add the new hard disk
back into the array.
4. Regularly check the output of 'cat /proc/mdstatus' to see the Raid
array being recreated. If possible try not to shutdown the server till
the array is recreated. Following command might be helpful 'watch -n 10
cat /proc/mdstatus'
5. RAID devices dont necessarily have a filesystem therefore you can't
mount the device/array itself. Assuming your filesystem didnt get wiped
out you should not have to mount anything. RAID will recover itself and
become healthy in the background without your intervention. Ofcourse
system performance would go for a toss meanwhile.

Do note I have made assumptions as to what your devices and raid setup
are. Check the man page to understand what options I have given and
their implications.

Depends on whether you at all have a proxy server or not. I would
basically copy your laptop's browser settings to the desktop and it
should work fine.

Unless ofcourse you were running some proxy server locally which you
would be aware I hope !!

"man mdadm" is your friend here. You can hot add or spin down a raid
component using this command.

Since it is a raid drive I suspect you have to do something like:
mount /dev/md0 /mout/point

[ilugd] to get data from raid5 breaked hdd

2006-06-30 Thread rajnish kumar
Dear
 I have software raid 5 in my fc4 system due to some problem my raid
was faild. I remove the hdd from that system and plugin into another
without raid system and try to mount it like

mount -t fd /dev/hdd1 /mnt/mydir ( it gives error --> mount: unknown
filesystem type 'fd')
mount -t ext3 /dev/hdd1 /mnt/mydir( it givse error -- > wrong fs type, bad
option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd1)
mount /dev/hdd1 /mnt/mydir ( it gives error --> mount: wrong fs type, bad
option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd1)dis
mount -f /dev/hdd1 /mnt/mydir ( from this cmd hdd is mount  and  on  df
-lh  it  showing  8gb  used  but  when i  am doing ls, it showing no  data)

If I am run the command fdisk -l then it shows

/dev/hdd1   1   30401   24419 6001   fd  Linux raid
autodetect

so plz tell how can mount this partition  as ext3 or how can we take data
from this raid formated hdd

with best wishes
