perf command in SL
Hi, According tot he wikipedia entry for perf, it should be available in kernels 2.6.31 Currently, the installed kernel on my SL-6.3 is SL-6.3 2.6.32-279.5.1.el6.x86_64. However, there is no package for perf or linux-tools. Do you have any idea? Regards, Mahmood

Hello,
I want to setup a diskless node and it should boot from a server. The guide
in http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PXE/PXE_Setup
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PXE/PXE_Setup explains DHCP setup. However I
want to assign static IP to the node. As a result, I have to add the node's
MAC address somewhere in the server's configuration file.
Where should I do that?
Try googling static dhcp lease linux.
For example on a RH/CentOS/Fedora platform acting as your DHCP server, in
/etc/dhcpd.conf:
#
# assign a static lease to our printer
#
host lj4100 {

fixed-address 192.168.1.125;

Hmmm, yes, it is possible, using iSCSI. In order to do this correctly you would want the machine, that has the additional drives, set up to be an iSCSI target, and then use the iSCSI initiator on the first machine to attach to the disks; you can then add those iSCSI disks to the volume group. I would use dedicated Gigabit Ethernet NICs and point-to-point connections rather than trying to use the existing ethernet ports, too. Oh, and you wouldn't have it mounted on the second machine as such. No, I can't give you a step-by-step, you'll have to do a bit of research and you really really need to read up on and understand what iSCSI brings to the party. I have an IA-64 box (SGI Altix) running CentOS 5.9 (my own hand-rebuild, bootstrapped up from SL CERN 5.4 IA-64) using an EMC Clariion array's LUNs over iSCSI, so I have a bit of experience with the initiator portion of the equation, but none at all with the target portion, but I know that it does exist.

I didn't have such problem before so your comments are appreciated. The machine has two physical disks (D0, D1) each has 1TB capacity and I attach a USB flash (2 GB) which contains a live image of SL6.3. So the boot priority in the BIOS looks like JetFlash D0 D1 Using the installation wizard, I see a layout like this /dev/sda 2GB /dev/sdb 1TB / 900GB swap 100GB /dev/sdc 1TB The default location for GRUB is then /dev/sda. Problem is, after installation I remove the USB flash but it doesn't boot because the grub had been installed on /dev/sda (which was JetFlash) and now there is no such device As another try, in the installation wizard where we can configure the boot loader, I selected /dev/sdb (where root and swap is installed). This time when I remove/disconnect the flash, the boot stuck again. The reason is that, when I disconnect the flash, D0 becomes /dev/sda and D1 becomes /dev/sdb. So again there is no grub!!

Still having problem with epel
Hi, Recently I have faced a problem with epel repository ad asked a question about that. That thread was messy so I decided to create a simpler scenario. I have followed the instructions from http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/installing-rhel-epel-repo-on-centos-5x-or-6x and downloaded the rpm file. However the epel repository doesn't work for me. If I remove it, then everything is normal. Please see the commands # wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm --2014-01-02 11:07:27-- http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm Resolving dl.fedoraproject.org... 209.132.181.23, 209.132.181.24, 209.132.181.25, ...

disk usage limit in SL6.3
Hi, How can I set a global disk usage limit on root folder '/'? All I see in the manuals is user and group quotas. I just want to set an upper limit that 5% of '/' must be empty. Regards, Mahmood
Re: disk usage limit in SL6.3
The filesystem will look like it is 100% full, and report that way to the operationg system with df commands, but root will be able to use the remaining percentage to keep the system alive until you throw some stuff away Exactly. At starting point with tune2fs, things aren't good! $ tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 | grep Reserved tune2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda1 Couldn't find valid filesystem superblock.

You are right. At the moment, our debian partition layout was in my mind. In SL, sda1 is for /boot and sda2 is for '/'.

How a user can execute a file from anothe user

You can create a group and put all the users in that group, this way they will only have access to that particular directory. Then do the following: $ groupadd pubgrp $ chown -R mahmood.pubgrp /home/mahmood/test $ chmod -R 2770 /home/mahmood/test However when another user tries to run, it receives permission error [anotherone@tiger ~]$ /home/mahmood/test -bash: /home/mahmood/test: Permission denied What is the solution.

That is my guess. What do you understand from the gdb output? Do you have a

Why, exactly, do you need gcc-4.1?
We have a simulator which is old. I can fix the compiler errors under gcc 4.4
for the code *itself*. However the code uses boost 1.33.1 and this version of
boost won't compile on gcc4.4.
Since I am not familiar with the complex structure of boost, at this time I
have to find a way to *just* run the code.

Good luck with that, it's a *lot* of work and likely to cause
conflicts with tyour gcc-4.4 components. You can put them in /opt if
you like. But why, exactly, do you want to do this?

libgcc and compat-gcc-34 are built from gcc source code, as part of
building up all of gcc.
Why, exactly, do you need gcc-4.1?
Re: searching for libgcc-4.1
Yes thank you. Indeed I have to run
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/gcc-4.1.2-built/lib64
That will assure that it will use gcc-4.1 library files rather than
default one which is used by gcc-4.4

Two. Follow Matthias's advice and try this on SL 5.9, rather than SL
6.3, and avoid having to rebuild gcc. Or look at how you're calling
gcc and your settings for LD_LIBRARY_)PATH, to assure that your
particular applications are calling the gcc libraries from
/opt/gcc-*/lib.

From the output, I see that although I used g++-4.1, at runtime the program
uses libgcc-4.4. Now what I want to do is to install a package like
libgcc.x86_64 which supports g++-4.1.
Good luck with that, it's a *lot* of work and likely to cause
conflicts with tyour gcc-4.4 components. You can put them in /opt if
you like. But why, exactly, do you want to do this?
I couldn't find compat-libgcc.x86_64.
Is there anyway to install libgcc-4.1?
libgcc and compat-gcc-34 are built from gcc source code, as part of
building up all of gcc.
Why, exactly, do you need gcc-4.1?
