[CentOS] multipathd

Our cluster was supplied with two IBM DS3400 RAID arrays connected with fibre channel. Both are old and one is failing so we bought an IBM V3700 to replace it. The V3700 complained that we were using the IBM's RDAC driver (true) and we were advised to change to using Linux multipath. I've done t

Re: [CentOS] UC One-time reboot into alternate kernel?

If you are using GRUB 0.97 (legacy GRUB), then this capability is provided by the "default saved" and "fallback" commands. See sections 4.3.1 and 4.3.2 in the manual: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/legacy/grub.html >-Original Message- >From: centos-boun...@centos.org [mailto:cen

A live DVD or memory stick version of any recent Linux distro will allow you to boot. You can then mount the original disk as, say, /mnt. Go to /mnt/etc and edit the root password to be null or cut-and-paste a known password in. Reboot and set it. >Hie > >I lost my CentOS 7 root password, so I t

Re: [CentOS] UC smartctl: is my disc dying?

I've seen similar cases where a USB drive appears to fail but the SMART reports success. The most recent was a 500 GB disk which had internally a Seagate Barracuda SATA drive. It appeared to work well until I sent it a largish (7GB) tarball. As well as SMART I ran a surface check and exercise, a

We run ganglia on a 35 node cluster (plus a few odds and ends). It seems pretty lightweight. I've just finished installing the latest versions at home on old slow 32-bit kit and it seems again to be very lightweight. You will need to install libconfuse and RRD though, the former comes as a tarba

Re: [CentOS] UC centos 5 with xfs root?

There are 3 issues here: Grub, the kernel and RedHat. 1) Grub won't run in an XFS /boot partition, but will happily run xfs_state1_5 to boot from an XFS root partition. 2) The kernel has supported XFS quite happily since at least 2005, I am looking at an SGI Propack 4 manual of February that year

Use AWK: { print $1, $2, $3, $4, substr($0, index( $0, ">") } Explanation: AWK will split the line up on white space, so printing $1, $2, $3, $4 will give you "27April2012 10:33:44 172.1.2.2 data" single spaced. The substr expression will return the rest of the input line ($0) unchanged from th

Re: [CentOS] UC What happened to 6.1

One exception is those machines behind a firewall that does not allow downloads. The only upgrade path then is to download on another machine and burn DVDs. CR repos are not helpful in such a case! Martin Rushton HPC System Manager, Weapons Technologies Tel: 01959 514777, Mobile: 07939 219057 e
