Re: Urgent problem with an arc RAID controller
Chris Cappuccio wrote: Assuming the Areca controller's virtual disk shows up as sd0, you can reinstall the MBR and boot blocks by: 1. Boot bsd.rd (from CD perhaps?) 2. fdisk -i sd0 (MBR) 3. mount /dev/sd0a to /mnt 4. installboot /mnt/boot /usr/mdec/biosboot sd0 (Boot blocks) I think that I already issued both the fdick -i and installboot commands. Anyway it could be that I did them in a wrong way because I was in panic... Now I have attached another disk, were I dump/restore-ed a copy of the root partition (the other partitions with all the data are mounted from the original disk) and so the server is alive again, and now I can think more lucidly... I think that at least part of the problem is in the fdisk partitioning, due to the great size of the disk. The system is a RAID 0+1 with 6 1TB disks, so it appears as a 3TB disk. The last (and bigger) partition is formatted in FFS2. First of all, here are the relevant parts of dmesg: arc0 at pci3 dev 14 function 0 Areca ARC-1220 rev 0x00: apic 4 int 16 (irq 7) arc0: 8 ports, 256MB SDRAM, firmware V1.46 2009-01-06 scsibus0 at arc0: 16 targets, initiator 16 sd0 at scsibus0 targ 0 lun 0: Areca, ARC-1220-VOL#00, R001 SCSI3 0/direct fixed sd0: 2861022MB, 44966 cyl, 511 head, 255 sec, 512 bytes/sec, 5859374592 sec total Here it is a copy of the fdisk sd0 command before the problem (after I installed the system): Disk: sd0 geometry: 364729/255/63 [1564407296 Sectors] Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: id C H S - C H S [ start:size ] --- 0: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 1: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused *3: A6 0 1 1 - 97379 165 59 [ 63: 1564404026 ] OpenBSD And here it is how it appears now: Disk: sd0 geometry: 26157922/7/32 [1564407296 Sectors] Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: id C H S - C H S [ start:size ] --- 0: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 1: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused *3: A6 0 1 32 - 6983946 5 25 [ 63: 1564404026 ] OpenBSD I don't remember if the LBA part was already this way or if I set it this way.

Re: FTP public
Always read the FAQ first.
To support an active FTP server, you should allow traffic for ftp,
ftp-data port and also all between net.inet.ip.porthifirst and
net.inet.ip.porthilast ports, as configured by sysctl(8).

Re: issues setting up OpenOSPFD between local and remote OpenBSD routers.
Matthew Haas wrote: I'm exploring running OpenOSPFD only on the local networks (ie talking between my two local routers), but then talk amongst all the sites via OpenBGPD. We'll see how it turns out. Good day everyone, Just wanted to offer an update of where I stand-- thanks to all for your suggestions. As it turns out, last night I sat down and banged out an OpenBGPD config on all affected routers (and there is an up-to-date FreeBSD port of OpenBGPD which also made some things nicer), and there was a clear difference in connectivity happiness. Peers came up and established each other's presence quite nicely. Watching new routes propagate was also rather impressive, not to mention seeing a distinct lack of communication errors I was regularly experiencing watching the OSPF peers try to negotiate with one another. I was hoping to only run 1 BGP server at each geographic location (of which there are 3 involved), and then running an OSPF server between all local routers at each location, but I couldn't get BGP-acquired routes to be shared via OSPF. It looks like some other implementations of OSPF have a redistribute ospf option, which doesn't look to be available in OpenOSPFD 4.4.1. Just trying it with redistribute connected and redistribute static didn't seem to have any effect. So as a result, I'm currently running OpenBGPD on all routers (which I guess isn't a problem, as each router is uniquely responsible for serving its own subnet, regardless of whether the machines are located at the same geographic location or remotely over the VPN. I'm not sure if I'm looking at this the wrong way (assuming I can have OSPFD extract acquired routes from BGPD and share them across the local network, just as I would expect BGPD to acquire OSPF-propagated routes from the local network and share them with the remote peers), but for the time being, I am pleased to have something working, so I can continue to whittle away at it with any further customizations I want to explore. One thing I do know, is that OpenBSD consistently comes through for me when it comes to easily setting up and having access to somewhat more complex network communication facilities. pf-based firewalls, and now route management; I am now plotting the demise of the sole Linux router in my environment to replace it with OpenBSD just to have full and headache-free access to these capabilities. -Matthew

Do I have to think it's a switch related problem? ip-unicast needs special care: citing carp(4): For scenarios where a hub is used it is not necessary to use a multicast MAC and it is safe to use the ip-unicast mode. Managable switches can usually be tricked into forwarding unicast traffic to all cluster nodes ports by configuring them into some sort of monitoring mode. As a basic test to see if your switch is playing along, you should run tcpdump on both machines and verify that the traffic towards the cluster is received on both sides. It is essential. The switch needs to send the traffic to all nodes in the cluster, if it does not do that, IP balancing cannot work. Marco

Delete packages with dependencies
Hello Guys, I was wondering if there is some tool that delete the packages specified along with their deletable dependencies. Deletable means packages that pkg_add added automatically (as dependencies of the installed one) and are not dependency of another package. This will ensure (in most of the cases) that you don't end up with a system with unnecessary packages. I couldn't find in pkg_delete(1) any option that implements the previous semantic.

Hello Otto,
Firstly I'd like to thank you for replying with actually interesting
and constructive comments.
Secondly, I hope you don't mind, I'd like to address your post in an
out of order fashion. So... starting from the source-code of the
fsck_ffs...
You might want to check the source of fsck_ffs. It contains code to
locate alternate superblocks, and that code will not work for the 'c'
partition.
I'm starting by looking in setup.c (in sbin/fsck_ffs). Namely the
implementation of 'calcsb' call, and it appears to work fine even if
'c' partition is passed to it, e.g. /dev/rsvnd3c
the line
'lp = getdisklabel(dev, devfd)'
produces disklabel fine even if there is no disk-label installed (in
coherence with man 5 disklabel)...
the line
'pp = lp-d_partitions[*cp - 'a'];'
evaluates to 2 ('c' - 'a') and indeed the default disklabel has no
less than value of 3 for 'd_npartitions' so accessing the 3rd array
element for (c) partition info appears to be ok...
the above observations have been tested with a minor program (see
attachment or at the end of message).
Perhaps, *indeed*, I am not looking in *all* of the right places and
so in the meantime (as I will be looking more into the rest of the
fsck_ffs code when I get more time), I thought I'd hack up a quick
empirical scenario: svnd an image, plonk newfs on c partition then
clobber the starting 16k and see if fsck firstly detects bad
superblock and then recovers ok...
... and the tests appear to indicate that it does actually work.
I have attached the relevant files as a .tar attachment as well as
pasting at the end of the email (in case of attachments being stripped
at your end -- but mail agent may wrap badly...).
I'm just back from vacation, so I'm late to jump in. The answer krw@
has given is right. We (and as a consequence the kernel) take the
liberty to change fields in disklabel, especially the entry for the
'c' partition.
If the above paragraph appears to relate to future code behavior --
then I'm fine with this as I have no expectations (nor requirements)
for future-compatibility w.r.t. disklabel (at least w.r.t. the context
of my original post). In other words, I was only interested on knowing
what happened on that particular version/release of the code and how
it correlated with the assertions/explanations in man pages (e.g.
vnconfig, caveats section)
As for the slighly off-topic part of the thread: if we write a
guideline into our manual page, it has a good reason to be there.
Consider the man page to be your much needed authorative source of
information.
Sure, but if there are multiple sources of information (multiple man
pages, code itself) then all should be in coherence w.r.t. each other.
So if man vnconfig (caveats section) gives certain
explanations/examples (e.g. implying the need for disklabel being
present on disk) then such should be reproducible and in accord with
other man pages (e.g. man 5 disklabel).
Otherwise (e.g. in case whet/if a normative point of reference for
behavior is not supported by other docs) there is not only a case for
starting ambiguity but also for a misleading conclusion.
I guess, if one definitively decided to reserve the 'c' partition for
special purposes, then instead of vnconfig caveat's section going into
detailed explanations/assertions as to why a given use of 'c'
partition would *not* work point blank (w/o testing such assertions)
it would rather be more succinct to state something like: The 'c'
partition is reserved for non file-system use only. Consequently the
results of applying a file-system directly onto 'c' partition are
undefined. ... the 'undefined' being the keyword here (as opposed to
stating that it will *not* work, when in some cases it appears to work
just fine) -- thus allowing for practical observations to vary w/o any
point of contention w.r.t. man pages assertions.
It'd be, possibly, also a good idea to reduce the duplication of such
info and move the whole section into a disklabel man page.
Of course, it'd be even a finer point to exemplify elsewhere (not man
pages even) the examples of why/when the 'c' partition is practically
(or theoretically) likely to change on-the-fly (i.e. compare how the
entire *physical* disk representation may change arbitrarily)... but
that is more of a wish-list.
Anyway, here are the quick test hacks/files:
the practical test (done on OpenBSD zion 4.5 GENERIC#1749 i386,
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E6550 @ 2.33GHz)
the shell script:
#!/bin/sh
function bail
{
echo Colud not ${*}.
exit 1
}

I don't have time now to test your scenario. But I'm pretty sure your
test will fail the moment non-default fragment or blocksizes are used
in such a way that the first alternate superblock does not end up at
it's usual place. Or maybe another scenario where the first alternate
is corrupted too, who knows? Also, disklabel test should preferable
include reboots to force the on-disk label to be read or spoofed
again.
Showing that a single scenario works for you doesn't show any validity
in the general sense.
Once again: the manual pages give guidance to maximize your chances of
recovering a filesystem in case of damage AND allow the implementation
certain freedom. Not following the advice will put your data at risk
in case of disaster. A new version of OpenBSD might even be that
disaster (for you).

The ride itself is free (as in beer) with the requirement that some donation (after ability) is made under the Slackathon donation race. The seats are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Applications are not binding, but we would very much like to know as soon as possible if you are not using your place so it can be given to someone else. It may be possible to pickup people along the way: the requirement is that you should more or less be standing on the road side of E4 when we pass as the schedule will be very tight. We are in the process of organising (almost) free sleeping quarters as well, but the details are not yet formalised, and in any case there *might* not be room for everyone on the bus. Just saying.

Problems using SUNIX 8 serial port card
I'm having problems using a Sunix PCI card with 8 serial port on a Soekris board. This hardware will be used as a console server: each of the 8 serial ports will be attached to the console of other Soekris box to provide out of band management. When I attach the console port of a managed box to any port from 2 to 8 of the 8x serial card, I get garbage. If I attach the same hardware (cable and managed box) to the first port of the 8x serial card, I get clear text. The command I use for the firs port is : # cu -l cua03 -s 19200 and everything works fine.

Re: ifstated with multiple CARP interfaces
On Tue, Aug 04, 2009 at 01:20:17AM +, Stuart Henderson wrote: I don't understand what you mean by VLAN on carp1, can you explain it a bit more please? My bad. I confused things a little. It's as you say, carpdevs set to vlan interfaces. In this case, carp1010 and carp1011 have vlan1010 and vlan1011 respectively as carpdevs, and those vlans both have em3 as their parent interface. There is also carp3 that has em3 as its carpdev. So: carp0 (index 11) carpdev em0 carp1 (index 12) carpdev em1 carp1010 (index 13) carpdev vlan1010 (which is a vlan on em3) carp1011 (index 14) carpdev vlan1011 (which is another vlan on em3) carp2 (index 15) carpdev em2 carp3 (index 16) carpdev em3 Do you see the same result from other software e.g. route -n monitor? (use recent -current [or, if your dns is ok, remove the -n option] to display interface names rather than index numbers) Neat. I didn't know about route monitor.

Consequently the results of applying a file-system directly onto 'c' partition are undefined. ... the 'undefined' being the keyword here (as opposed to stating that it will *not* work, when in some cases it appears to work just fine) -- thus allowing for practical observations to vary w/o any point of contention w.r.t. man pages assertions. appearing to work sometimes is a special case of not working. it doesn't mean it is working. I didn't say this. I was saying: ultimately stating that it *won't* work (when it sometimes does) is not correct; but saying that it is *undefined* to work would be more correct -- see man 5 vnconfig, caveats section. leon.

Hello Otto,
Firstly I'd like to thank you for replying with actually interesting
and constructive comments.
Secondly, I hope you don't mind, I'd like to address your post in an
out of order fashion. So... starting from the source-code of the
fsck_ffs...
You might want to check the source of fsck_ffs. It contains code to
locate alternate superblocks, and that code will not work for the 'c'
partition.
I'm starting by looking in setup.c (in sbin/fsck_ffs). Namely the
implementation of 'calcsb' call, and it appears to work fine even if
'c' partition is passed to it, e.g. /dev/rsvnd3c
the line
'lp = getdisklabel(dev, devfd)'
produces disklabel fine even if there is no disk-label installed (in
coherence with man 5 disklabel)...
the line
'pp = lp-d_partitions[*cp - 'a'];'
evaluates to 2 ('c' - 'a') and indeed the default disklabel has no
less than value of 3 for 'd_npartitions' so accessing the 3rd array
element for (c) partition info appears to be ok...
But the next test (pp-p_fstype != FS_BSDFFS) will abort.
Not at all. Of course, I was *not* expecting to see FFS on 'c'
partition without first plonking newfs on it. Besides the attached
code (c++) includes this test and it is not tripped by this condition
(so yeah -- if I had simply 'vnconfig svnd3 ./image' then, naturally,
no FFS on it; but the test/questions obviously were related to putting
an fs on 'c' partition ('newfs svnd3c') vs the writing disklabel and
newfs on 'a' for example).
the above observations have been tested with a minor program (see
attachment or at the end of message).
Perhaps, *indeed*, I am not looking in *all* of the right places and
so in the meantime (as I will be looking more into the rest of the
fsck_ffs code when I get more time), I thought I'd hack up a quick
empirical scenario: svnd an image, plonk newfs on c partition then
clobber the starting 16k and see if fsck firstly detects bad
superblock and then recovers ok...
... and the tests appear to indicate that it does actually work.
I don't have time now to test your scenario. But I'm pretty sure your
test will fail the moment non-default fragment or blocksizes are used
in such a way that the first alternate superblock does not end up at
it's usual place. Or maybe another scenario where the first alternate
is corrupted too, who knows? Also, disklabel test should preferable
include reboots to force the on-disk label to be read or spoofed
again.
Ok sweet -- thanks for this. I'll try these cases as well (w/o
non-default settings -- as I'd replied to an earlier email, I don't
consider such to be within the context of the discussion).
Showing that a single scenario works for you doesn't show any validity
in the general sense.
I wasn't trying to show validity of the general sense here. I was
trying to show invalidity of categorical statements made in vnconfig
man page... but I will test with a reboot as well...
in case of disaster. A new version of OpenBSD might even be that
disaster (for you).
Once again -- forward-compatibilty is not my requirement (a new
version may have lots of different non backwards-compatible changes,
who knows?)
