You might try using arpwatch to see whether you can catch the MAC address of the conflicting machine. If you can gain access to the switch, you might be able to track it there as well. Can you prevent your users from changing their IP addresses? Set up dhcp for the user machines?

And if it was really slow, that would be sufficient explanation... If this was the first and only time, that'd be another thing entirely... Yes, it costs more money (mostly in hardware) to make services fault tolerant and with some applications load-tolerance is tricky; but what I'm saying is that Red Hat should be making those sorts of things happen with RHN. Having RHN be slow when there's a major new round of updates would be much less annoying. Also, given that most people already using the "rhnsd" (and possibly also the little rhn applet) and all anybody can do now is hit a placeholder webpage, I'm having trouble seeing how the load is any higher than usual at the moment... It's not like they announced update 3 so that there's a lot of users actively pounding their site trying to get it... I'd point you to the marketing phrases used on http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/ -- but now that seems to be down, too. They're pushing RHEL as an "Enterprise" product, customers are buying it as an "Enterprise" product, and RHN is a key component of RHEL. RHN needs to be more reliable than this. (and I simply don't believe that new updates have anything to do with www.redhat.com being down; I suspect it's related to the two afternoons/evenings of downtime earlier this week) Chilling out is, of course, always a good idea. However, this (over an hour) downtime is putting a kink in at least two projects involving at least two different members of our systems administration group. (We're RHN Proxy customers with a fair number of systems running RHEL and more migrating to RHEL; not people who just happen to be keeping a desktop or two patched) I think Red Hat owes their customers at least some explanations about what's going on. -- Eric Eisenhart Linux/Unix Systems Administrator Office: Schulz 1050A, (707) 664-3099 AIM: ericeisenhart, ICQ: 156218985 Sonoma State University, IT From scott-b.anderson at st.com Thu Sep 2 19:17:20 2004 From: scott-b.anderson at st.com (Scott ANDERSON) Date: Thu, 02 Sep 2004 12:17:20 -0700 Subject: [rhn-users] RHN down; again In-Reply-To: <41376BAA.4020304@beowulf.net> References: <413762C4.1090801@sonoma.edu> <413764F3.5070606@beowulf.net> <1094150410.30160.0.camel@localhost.localdomain> <41376BAA.4020304@beowulf.net> Message-ID: <413771C0.5040604@st.com> I think the downtime was an attempt to prepare for this update.

To quote their site " ...a theoretical 8388608TB file size. Large enough?" You'll have to track down the packages yourself but, from the SGI website... : Does XFS support large files (bigger then 2GB)? Yes, XFS supports files larger then 2GB. The large file support (LFS) is largely dependent on the C library of your computer. Glibc 2.2 and higher has full LFS support. If your C lib does not support it you will get errors that the valued is too large for the defined data type. Userland software needs to be compiled against the LFS compliant C lib in order to work. You will be able to create 2GB+ files on non LFS systems but the tools will not be able to stat them. Distributions based on Glibc 2.2.x and higher will function normally. Note that some userspace programs like tcsh do not correctly behave even if they are compiled against glibc 2.2.x You may need to contact your vendor/developer if this is the case. Here is a snippet of email conversation with Steve Lord on the topic of the maximum filesize of XFS under linux. I would challenge any filesystem running on Linux on an ia32, and using the page cache to get past the practical limit of 16 Tbytes using buffered I/O. At this point you run out of space to address pages in the cache since the core kernel code uses a 32 bit number as the index number of a page in the cache. As for XFS itself, this is a constant definition from the code: #define XFS_MAX_FILE_OFFSET ((long long)((1ULL<<63)-1ULL)) So 2^63 bytes is theoretically possible. All of this is ignoring the current limitation of 2 Tbytes of address space for block devices (including logical volumes). The only way to get a file bigger than this of course is to have large holes in it. And to get past 16 Tbytes you have to used direct I/O. Which would would mean a theoretical 8388608TB file size. Large enough?

I believe the calling convention is comma (',') separated. I believe the reasoning for this is that there is some importance in the order of the activation keys. /me hunts around a little...

It appears that the servers are no longer getting the correct username and group information from the NT 4.0 domain controllers. If I did a smbstatus on previous versions (i.e. 3.0.4-6.3E) the username and group would appear as "Domain+Username Domain+Group". Now we are simply getting "Username nobody" for user and group. This is happening on multiple servers so I know it's not just a individual server problem and nothing has changed in the smb.conf. In addition our main file server does not get automatic updates for this very reason and is running 3.0.4-6.3E and is having no issues at all. If I do a getent passwd, getent group, wbinfo -u, or wbinfo -g the information returned is identical to the information returned for the server running 3.0.4-6.3E, so I don't think it is a winbind setting. On a testing server I have copied the smb.conf file from the working server and have attempted using that, to no avail. I have even attempted rejoining the domain which works, but does not fix this problem. Is anyone else having similar issues? Below is a log of an attempt to log in, as well as the smb.conf of the machine. (Note: Origionally the config used idmap uid and gid, but as the working server had winbind I thought I would try that out, but it did not work.)

I have done this for RedHat 6.2 to RedHat 9 and RedHat EL WS v.2.1 Update 4 with no problem. However, my setup of WS v.3 update 2 seems doesn't work. The behavious is that the packages were installed in alphabetic order. The dependencies of the packages were totally ignored. So a lot of packages failed installation and I ended up getting an unbootable machine because kernel failed to be installed too. The only thing different for WS v.3 is that I created boot CD from isolinux/ directory on the first Easy ISO CD instead of boot floppy. Since I put in extra RPMs into RPMS directory (I have done that for all previous versions of RedHat), so I ran genhdlist on a ES v.3 machine. It finished with no problem. The comps.xml file didn't have section, but I still ran getfullcomps.py to generate package list and put it into comps.xml. (I tried both with and without packages section, and the results were the same.) I also tried to put --resolvedeps at the end of %packages line in ks.cfg file. And it didn't make any difference either. Anyone has any idea what the problem and solution are? Thank you very much for your help!

It's very urgent. > Thanks and regards, > Aboobacker If I understand your situation, you have a bunch of machines with static IP addresses, and one of your users on your network is picking one of the addresses of your server's IP address. You might try using arpwatch to see whether you can catch the MAC address of the conflicting machine. If you can gain access to the switch, you might be able to track it there as well. Can you prevent your users from changing their IP addresses? Set up dhcp for the user machines?

I've included that message below for any potential interest. In recent months I did some more testing and learned a few things about this problem: 1. The problem seems to be somewhat switch dependent. That is, others are running the same hardware and software on a box but with a different switch and not having the problem (e.g. there's at least one Dell switch which, if placed between the 2650 and a another switch eliminates the problem). The switch I'm connected to is a Foundry FastIron 3 with the Ironcore chip set. 2. With the appropriate switch (as above at least - others?) this problem is easy to reproduce. Just do a kickstart (or any build) to Redhat ES 3.0 on the Dell 2650 connected to the Foundry switch, then upgrade to the latest kernel (2.4.21-15.0.4.ELsmp anyway). The initial build works fine. After the upgrade the box will then no longer communicate on the network. I tried a number of work arounds, including turning of auto negotiation (with some help from our networking folks) and trying some other NICs that also used the tg3 driver (an old SysKonnect NIC). None of these were successful. Finally I gave up and took the advice of others and installed an Intel NIC that uses the e1000 driver (Intel PWLA8492MT, "Intel PRO/1000 MT Dual Port Server Adapter). Doing so finally solved my problem. It seems clear there's some sort of interoperability problem involving the broadcom chip set, the tg3 driver, and the Foundry switch. I don't have time to explore this problem further, but I thought I would share with others what I learned from my testing. --Jed http://www.nersc.gov/~jed/ Here's my original message for reference: __________________________________________________________________________________________________ May 25, 2004: I've been running RH ES 3.0 on a Dell 2650 server with for some time with a GigE interface with the Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5701 technology the tg3 driver, most recently with the RH 2.4.21-9.0.1.ELsmp kernel.

According to my expectation is an install from an U3-distribution the same as an install from the origional and run `up2date` and update all packages. If you are up to date according to `up2date`, then there is no need to use U3 images. If you are not up to date, my idea is to find where up2date dumps its rpm-s (see `up2date-configure`, most likely /var/spool/up2date). Either dump all rpm-s from the isos in there or point to your location. And run `up2date`. It does need internet access and it will download header-files but it will find your rpms and hence does not download them. Major advantage is that you can do this live: the machine does not need to go down (except to activate an updated kernel) I don't know what happens if you boot from the disks and select update. I expect it updates all packages... I dont know why there is no update folder. > > Please advise if you have any clue...

I think this is in the used IP range... Both the 10.x.y.z addresses and the 192.168.a.b are so-called private ranges (there is an other one in the B-class, don't know it by head). By default, most routers are configured not to route these addresses, except when direct connected. To solve this, you might need to configure hard-routes. Most easy: use the gateway on the remote network as gatway on the local network and define a static route to that remote gateway. There are many other ways to address this. Best to check your provider for how to configure a router at your side. Good change that you get an other IP address on your internet-side. If you are not allowed to, then your provider is realy cheap on IP addresses, get an other provider.

Because of this routing issue, it makes little sense to use the 192.168 address outside you local network, this address will not be NAT'd and there is no route back to the host using it. raymundo Corn?

So far, no answers to this problem have shown up. So, here goes another attempt at asking if the problem has been encountered and solved in any way. See details of the error below. I'm running RedHat 9 on a dual boot Celeron laptop. I'm not aware of any configuration changes I might have made to cause this to happen. The boot process will appear to be going normally. The "login:" prompt appears. Rather than being followed by the gui coming up, the screen goes blank. After a few seconds, the following error appears: [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* space 131056 wanted 131064 [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* space 131048 wanted 131064 [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup The screen goes black again. After a few seconds, the above lines are reprinted on the screen, and a couple more appear: [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* space 131040wanted 131064 [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* space 131032 wanted 131064 [drm: i830_wait_ring] *ERROR* lockup etc. The lowest number to show up is 131016. After that, the screen goes black and seems to stay that way. I have to do hard boot. At one point, I could log in between screen blankings and do some basic console stuff, but I could not log into a shell from another system on my network, as I can on my Redhat 8 system which has it's own video/system bios problems with a KVM switch). I had been doing regular updates to this system until around September of 03. After that I was off the Internet, and lost my connection to RedHat support. I'd hate to have to reinstall from my boot CD's. I did go to rescue mode once, but I have no idea what files to fix or replace. Please help! ;-) Lars From cbeerse at lycos.nl Mon Sep 13 09:31:15 2004 From: cbeerse at lycos.nl (=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Corn=E9_Beerse?=) Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2004 11:31:15 +0200 Subject: [rhn-users] RPM doesn't work!

On my systems I find it reproducable just by starting 2 (or more) actions on the rpm-database. For example: - start up2date manually and while actually installing the packages - find the system is peeking in the rpm database to see if it needs some update (the rhn-deamon runs by default multiple times per hour) - do an `rpm -q` to find some package is installed. - and wait until you get bored, finish your coffee and like to go home.... Now you have one or more hanging rpm-commands of which one is using an entire processor. If not on a multi-processor machine, the systems gets 'hung'.... Kill the cpu-hungry rpm command and wait some more time to find all others do hang somehow. Now kill them all and find yourself having to rebuild the database. > > I would say.. if the whole world says it's broken.. then it's being > reproduced.. and therefore IS, a bug... ;) My routine does take some carefull timing. I think the root is some deadlock while updating and scanning the rpm database. To realy debug the problem, a multi-processor system is needed. I can recall a message from the RedHat knowledge base that the source of the problem might be related to the used database-engine, in more detail the verion used in the rpm system differs from the one actually used on the sytem, the one used in the rpm system might also be a beta-version... This I found while investigating the problem on a RH9 system. My workaround was to disable the rhn-deamon and to do a weekly up2date, at least avoiding to run rpm more than once.

I will ping our prod-ops guys and see if there was some network issues last night, but as this is the first I heard of anything, I doubt there was an issue on our end.

By doing that you will not have the problem of assigning a different ip address to another machine, you will keep the same cenario as you have with static ip. The advantage you will have is that you can have the range of server-IPs separated from the range of Client-IPs. You can also change gateway, DNS and other information dynamically from a single central point of administration. I think you best bet in the DHCP-server documentation.

This may turn out to be a Sybase issue, so if you think that is the case then please point it out immediately. In either case any solutions are definitely welcome. I've put a line in /etc/fstab as follows: tmpfs /dev/sybase_tempdb tmpfs mode=700,rw,size=3G 0 0 As suggested by this guide : http://www.peppler.org/FAQ/linux.html#q1.19 When we attempt to initialize a sybase device for tempdb the following error is returned.

My question to you is, is there a difference from an application's point of view if a filesystem is tempfs or ext3? My initial guess was that it should be transparent to the application, but now I doubt that or I'm not setting up the temporary filesystem properly. I'm about to create files as the same user being used by the application. Thanks Charith Perera.

No, there is no difference for the app if only the filesystem changes, except for not available capabilities (think writing to a iso-filesystem...). However: if the filesystem is mounted with different options, like your 'mode' setting, it is likely that the app does see it. Hence, try without the 'mode=700' part, better jet: only use the "size=3G" ( or more).

Does anyone know of documentation for the conf file ? I have a X Series IBM machine with 2 qla2200 cards. The main issue is that I have multiple drives on my san and they get added to different cards. For example, 3 san drives qla2200 card 1 sees sdb,sdc, and sdd qla2200 card 2 sees sde, sdf, and sdg. The issue is that if sdb is actually seen to have a partition table which can be mounted, sde gives I/O errors. if sdc gives I/O errors then sdf has a valid table and can be mounted. I need to know how to set the prefered and alternate path for the 2 SAN cards.

But I got the following error message: Invalid Architecture and OS combination (3, i686-redhat-linux).... I knew that someone has encountered the similar cases and more or less found the way to resolve it. But none of them is the same as mine. By right, the version should be "3AS, i686-redhat-linux", somehow the up2date collected wrong info. As the result, my box is registered but with no detail listed and no channels able to be subscribed in the rhn.redhat.com. This has nothing to do with my RHN account and entitlement. My question is, where does "up2date --register" or "rhn_register" collect the info from? My /etc/redhat-release shows "Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update 2)", which is correct as I installed OS from a U2 ISO CD-ROM. My "uname -a" shows "Linux hostname 2.4.21-15.0.4.ELsmp #1 SMP Sat Jul 31 01:25:25 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux", which is supposed to be right, compared with my another testing box which is running fine with the up2date. How can I "cheat" the up2date in this case? Or which system file or parameters to set to right version info? Or is there any way to work around instead of reinstall from scratch?

Try running these two commands: rpm -V redhat-release rpm -qc redhat-release The first will show you what files in redhat-release have changed (any with a "c" are config files), the second will show you a list of all "config" files in redhat-release.

You just did! :) If you modify a config file and you have "Do not upgrade packages when local configuration file has been modified" set (up2date --config), then it will do this. Many folks want to be more selective and careful about upgrading things they have configured themselves. That is why that option is there. -taw > Regards, > Shawn > > -----Original Message----- > From: rhn-users-bounces at redhat.com [mailto:rhn-users-bounces at redhat.com] > On Behalf Of Shawn Protsman > Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 2:51 PM > To: Red Hat Network Users List > Subject: RE: [rhn-users] redhat-release Config modified > > Eric, > > Thank you for the information.

With other hardware (HP/Compaq proliant) and older versions (RH 7.x) I had to be carefull which driver to install for the nic. Check your hardware supplier for which driver to use and optionally supplied drivers. On the other hand, check the nic you use and if/how it is supported. The RH-supplied dirver is not always the best.

But warning... - boot loader : Grub or Lilo, for your first RH-installation you can choose "first sector of the boot-partition", e.g. normally hdb (second hard disk), but the other solution (master boot record : hda) works also. . see also usr/share/doc (grub or lilo) for an eventual uninstallation of RH. . if you have problems with the master boot record (MBR) and the win-boot, you can restore the old MBR typing "FDISK /MBR" under a recent DOS-version. . see also the Howtos (redhat.com). . see also on redhat.com search : dualboot.

With other hardware (HP/Compaq proliant) and older versions (RH 7.x) I had to be carefull which driver to install for the nic. Check your hardware supplier for which driver to use and optionally supplied drivers. On the other hand, check the nic you use and if/how it is supported. The RH-supplied dirver is not always the best.

I've seen this before and it turned out to be several corrupt manpages. It has been a while, but I think I just ran /usr/sbin/makewhatis in verbose mode to find the corrupt files.

And you want to install your OS (Red Hat, Suse) on this disk. RH will give you an option for the disk. And you want Grub to recognize disk 1 (hypothetically, /dev/hda) as the main disk. That's it. Oh, yes. You should be sure to make a bootable floppy for the new Linux, and use it to test grub.

I recently installed a program (Maple). The install did not register the new file type used by this program, so I am trying to add a file type manually. I followed the instruction given under Help. Under Control Center, I clicked on File Types which gave me the list of defined file types and an option to add a new file type. When I click on it, everything is ok until I enter the file type. The help section says there should be an add button. However, the dialog box which is displayed has an area to enter a file type, but no help button (only a remove one). So, I cannot specify a file type. First, is this the correct way to add a file type? Second, has anybody else experienced this, or am I the only one missing an ADD button in this dialog box?

If you are secure in your ability to maintain MySQL and handle updates on your own, I'd suggest going with the latest stable version from MySQL.com, but if you are dependent on RedHat support, stick with version 3.23 that Redhat offers. -gabriel -----Original Message----- From: rhn-users-bounces at redhat.com [mailto:rhn-users-bounces at redhat.com]On Behalf Of Lloyd H.

I was all set to write an email about how you can't add drives to an existing RAID array, then found that it might be possible. However, generally, if you wish to add more space, you either must do one of two things: 1) leave the existing 1TB array alone and create a new storage "thing" (ranging from a lone disk with no RAID, to a new RAID array of some level), 2) destroy the existing RAID5 array, add the new drives, then create a new (and larger) array using the additional disks. It seems that there is a tool called 'raidrecof' that might do the trick. Make backups of your data, and have a look at it. > Is it a good solution ? I would prefer LVM because resizing would be > only but cannot see how to able it with Hardware RAID 5. I would suggest using LVM anyway, and not resize the arrays. You already have one RAID array. Use this as a physical volume (/dev/sda1, or whatever is appropriate) in a volume group (/dev/vg0, for example), and create your logical volumes within that. When it comes time to add more space, create a second RAID array (/dev/sdb), and add it to the existing volume group that you already have. That group can then make use of the new space, either to create additional logical volumes, or increase the size of existing ones. If this is hardware RAID (as opposed to software /dev/md devices), the controller should support multiple arrays. -- Jesse Becker GPG-fingerprint: BD00 7AA4 4483 AFCC 82D0 2720 0083 0931 9A2B 06A2 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Recall that you will have to add a disk of the same size to the array. If your array is made of, say, 200GB disks, and you add a new 250GB disk, 50GB will be unused. Instead of adding incrementally, you just have to add in larger sets of disks, and/or resize things on the fly. -- Jesse Becker GPG-fingerprint: BD00 7AA4 4483 AFCC 82D0 2720 0083 0931 9A2B 06A2 -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Date: Tue, 28 Sep 2004 16:19:00 +0530 Subject: [rhn-users] mmap system call error -- source code listed Message-ID: <4EE0CBA31942E547B99B3D4BFAB3481110807C@mail.esn.co.in> Dear all, I developed a small character device driver. It should work for reading/writing from RAM. I implemented the mmap functionality in this device driver. It is very small program. Even though, I was unable to read the contents from the mapped area. System configuration is: Intel x86 architecture and Red Hat 7.3 with 2.4.18-3 kernel version. The following code contains the driver code, make file and application (read/write) code. -- make install command creates the node under /dev directory based on device major number. -- make uninstall command removes the node from the /dev directory. -- write.c is used to write the contents into the device memory. -- read.c is used to the read the contents from the device memory using read system call. -- read_mmap.c is used to read the contents from the device memory using mmap system call. Here read.c and write.c are working fine where as when I try to read the contents from the device memory using read_mmap.c file I was not getting any thing except NULL, but when I was reading the same device memory using read.c file it works fine. What was the error? Where is the fault? Please any help greatly appreciated.

I have several RPMs for a 3rd party product. I want to distribute that product via my RHN Satellite 3.2 server. I resign the packages on the Satellite server (running AS 21 with rpm 4.04 I believe) using the 'rpm --resign' command. I'm prompted for my gpg pass phrase, and the packages are successfully resigned. rpm --checksig verifies that the packages has a good md5 sum. I then use rhnpush to put the packages into a custom child channel. No problems.... Then, I go to a RHN client system (running AS3 with rpm 4.2) and try to up2date the packages. up2date then responds that the package is corrupt. I have found a few references to problems resigning packages between rpm x.x and y.y, but I have not found thorough summary of the problem. Does anyone have a complete characterization of this issue and what the "proper" solution should be. I'm currently in the process of exporting my gpg keys to a AS 3 host and will attempt resigning the packages there.

The new cards are not recognized at all. Both DLink and SMC claim to support a kernel modul called sk98. When we unpack it, the directions read, essentially: untar it, cd to the directory, and make. That seems easy enough.... The resulting error message is skdim.c In function 'GetCurrentSystemLoad skdim.c:315 'kstat' undeclared Both companies, by the way, claim Linux is unsupported, which they do NOT state in their documentation. Both claim to work in Linux, so this is at the very least extremely dishonest. I don't expect telephone support, but to be able to email with a driver problem seems pretty basic. The SMC specifically is in the Linux HOWTO claiming to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Add an appropriate little script in /etc/profile.d (one for each shell). It's a lot easier to track the changes that you've made to a system (and duplicate them to another).

The original version gave out a different Traceback (which I unfortunately didn't save) so I manually downloaded and installed the latest available up2date version (at least for AS) from here: https://rhn.redhat.com/help/latest-up2date.pxt Along with these packages: rhn_register-2.9.12-1.2.1AS.i386.rpm rhnlib-1.8-6.p15.noarch.rpm pyOpenSSL-0.5.1-7.152.i386.rpm The machine doesn't have Gnome nor X so I thought it would be safe to skip the -gnome packages on that page. Perhaps I was wrong assuming that? I'd rather not have any X/Gnome packages on the box, if I can avoid it..

Apparently we were out of appropriate Channel Entitlements so the machine didn't register to any base channnel when I ran rhn_register. I've now given it a base channel and up2date works as it should. Thanks for your help and sorry for wasting your time ;-) Tero
