RE: large fdset for 2.0.37

Hi all, After I patched the 2.0.37 w/ the large filehandle patch, I set max number of open file per process to 2048 and set the max number of process to 2048 also. Then put "echo 8192 > /proc/sys/kernel/file-max" and "echo 32768> /proc/sys/kernel/inode-max" in the rc.local . I started seein

Installing RedHat6 on root raid?

Is there a way to set up a raid configuration during the install and partitioning of the RedHat6 installation program? I already have software raid 5 running under RedHat, but that involved much headache and hair loss. Plus, it leaves me with a small but annoying original boot partition. I wan

Autodectect problems on Redhat 6.0

Hi there.. I wasn't sure who exactly to ask for help after reading the HOWTO, so please let me know if I'm asking the wrong person. :) Anyway, I just did a clean install of RedHat 6.0 on a new server, and attempted a software RAID setup on it. Everything seems to work fine, the /dev/md0, 1 & 2 m

Raid 1 Problem? under 2.2.10

Hi, I am using the raid0145-19990421-2.2.6 patch on a machine that is currently running kernel 2.2.10. I am using raid 1 to mirror our 'mailserver'. There are a couple of issues that I have had. Once I recompiled 2.2.10, and rebooted it would not shut down properly, so I had to reset the machi

Re: Question/Advice...

I have used Netware for a long time and if you are experiencing reliability problems, it is rarely the SW, but most likely the hardware! I supported almost 50 people on a Prosignia 486/66 with 64MB RAM and the system never topped out on resources and had tons of disk storage. Changing the OS on

Is my RAID1 really working??

Here is a situation that has caught my eye... I have a 2.2.5-22 Kernel with RAID1 compiled in, I am not attempting to have a RAID1 root file system and cat /proc/mdstat is: Personalities : [raid1] read_ahead 1024 sectors md0 : active raid1 sdb5[1] sda5[0] 6144704 blocks [2/2] [UU] md1 : active ra
