Hi all,
I'm trying to do 2 things with SCSI/RAID both of which are having
problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My system is 2.2.14 with
the 5.1.22 Adaptec AIC-7xxx drivers.
First, I'm trying to get 4 SCSI drives working. Forget RAID, forget
anything complex, I just want
It's bound to get brought up here, so we might as well do it now.
The release certainly seems to indicate a feeling that the current s/w
raid is lacking (I think most if not all of us would dsagree at least
to a large extent), so perhaps the best question(s) are:
1) Is the MPL a problem given

Thanks Bill for your comments
I actually had the entries in fstab right when I tried it. (Sorry for the
manual typos)
I was wondering .. The Compaq Proliant has an internal SCSI Controller
(NCRXX ??). The RedHat install picks this up no problem. AM I better off
using the internal controller

Very good question, sorry I forget it to start out with...
On 1 chanel (the internal one, if it matters), I have just 1 UWSCSI2

Thanks a lot.
I' ll check nbd and pvfs.
In our system there are 350 users 40 PCs+10PCs(servers for various jobs).
One server is NFS and NIS server and the other 40PCs are NIS and NFS
clients. They have 4.3Gb hd but just 2.3GB enough(SuSE), so

Hi,
I had similar problems (actually your messages could be a cut-and-paste of
my old logs) with my box at the beginning. The actual problems was that
the scsi-bus did not fullfill the specifications. Replacing some hardware
(hot-swap boxes) solved it. BTW, all worked well under DOS in the

Hey all... this probably isnt a 100% raid question, but I'm hoping that
someone here has had a similar experience that might be able to help me.

You might need to update a few other packages, like the kernel
packages (I don't know whats going break if I do that), and the
package that contains fdisk (rpm -qf /sbin/fdisk?). You might need
to leave the "old" RH6.0 kernel packages, and get the
In an extreme case, a drive could fail and a new one hot added while the
machine is live. Then reconstruction could occur while the swap area is
active. You might also like a cron job if you _REALLY_ want?

That means, that you can "export" a block device on each of your 40 PCs
(you´ld export your 2GB partition). Then import these nbds on your server.
But do not mount them RW and write to them. There is no locking inbetween
machines, and you can get a whole lot of interesting results if you

A fix, possibly, is to look at using grub instead of lilo. Since it
doesn't write the kernel params into the MBR the way lilo does it may vary
well allow for longer strings passed to the kernel.
