after finding some information in other list archives, i see the control

million simultaneous connections! so yeah. that machine can be downgraded 
quite affordably.


please keep in mind that you will need multiple ip addresses to achieve
that as you're limited to approx 64k usable ports and therefore
connections in tcp.


for gfs (or better gfs2): i did not succeed in getting it up and
running. ocfs2 has been no problem.

i had a small talk with the developer of drbd where i came to the
conclusion that i should favor ocfs2 anyway.

Hello,
I've tested patch-2.6.19-rc6-vs2.1.1-t3.diff on linux-2.6.19 but it doesn't

patching file Documentation/vserver/debug.txt
patching file Makefile
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file Makefile.rej

please examine the Makefile.rej file. normaly it is only a reject
because of a different version string and this can be patched manually.



patching file arch/arm/Kconfig
Hunk #1 succeeded at 935 (offset 2 lines).
.


this tells you that patch did not find the spots to apply the patches
on the told position. it did however find it at +/-2 (or X) lines and
successfully patched this location.

you can assume that everything worked.

kind regards,

[Vserver] Program running amok - is this a vserver issue?

2006-09-12 Thread Raoul Bhatia [IPAX]

i have come uppon an issue with an tcl script using sockets to make an
ftp connection. unfortunatly the script is bytecode so i cannot tell too
much about the actual work the program does.

after some time the process starts to use 100% cpu. strace reveals this
output: http://nopaste.info/3dc9e844fe.html

as far as i know the program normally runs just as expected.
is this somehow a vserver related issue?

kind regards,
raoul bhatia

Hello,
version 0.30.205 util-vserver (alpha branch) is out. Noticable changes
are a new 'vhashify' command which is a successor of 'vunify'. It uses
some aggressive techniques like mmap'ing of files and the creation of
sparse files. To prevent data lossage, it is strongly recommended to
execute 'make check' when using non-ext3 filesystems. (Unfortunately,
the 'cmp' tool is sometimes not configured for large files and will
create false positives).
Another issue is 'vyum': the current 'yum' version makes it impossible
to execute it when the vserver is running (there, /.. might be unequal
to /). A fix for yum can be found at
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/beta/show_bug.cgi?id=146650#c1
but the upstream author dislikes it. Feel free to request another fix
there ;)
