Re: [CentOS] ext3 filesystems larger than 8TB
I believe Florin Andrei had a typo in his message. No other file system will be as reliable as *XFS*. I've had XFS recover from system failures that Ext3 would/could not recover from. If you want dependability, reliability, and also large file systems, only use XFS. You'll find none better. You should also be using the 64 bit kernels as well, but then, you want that for a whole lot other reasons anyways. -- Brent L. Bates (UNIX Sys. Admin.)

Have you also had emacs write files where vim would not? Have you had qmail deliver where postfix would not? I mean, if you're going to attempt to start a holy war here in the mailing list, why stop at just filesystems :-P I believe XFS has some very good points where ext3 definitely lacks. That said, on RHEL/CentOS with the 4k stack compilation, xfs on x86 systems where you were using an abstraction layer (lvm, software raid, etc) xfs could get angry with you pretty quickly. EXT3 is widely regarded as being more stable than others over the long-term, which is why it's the default for a number of distros.

Makes sense, does NFS support sharing such large volumes? I suppose that will depend on both the server version of NFS and the client, but it's something you need to keep in mind. I think for a large file file system xfs is probably what you want, but you will want to run CentOS 64-bit with the 8k stacks to see it's full robustness and stability. Some people think xfs is good everywhere, but that's simply not true, I always recommend putting the OS on ext3 and then choosing the file system for your application data that best suits the application. Basically you have ext3, jfs, xfs, gfs and ocfs, the last 2 being clustered file systems. ext3 is good because it is widely supported and performs well under mixed work load, jfs is supposedly excellent if you have a lot of small files like a mail/news server, xfs for large files and of course gfs or ocfs for clusters that need simultaneous file system access from multiple nodes (but they are slower due to locking overhead). If you have volumes over 8TB then you really need to use either jfs or xfs depending on the application and if you are using xfs I highly recommend you run 64-bit for stability reasons. -Ross __ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.

[CentOS] SELinux policy module sources
Hi. I'm trying to figure out where the SELinux policy modules shipped with the system live, and how they work. The modules listed by 'semodule -l' are the same as those available in /etc/selinux/targeted/modules/active/modules, but those are not part of any package, and are presumably added and removed to this location as they are added and removed to the kernel. I later found these modules to live in /usr/share/selinux. If I create a policy module of my own, is this the place to put it to make sure that it is loaded when the system boots? Or do I also need to list it somewhere, such in a configuration file? The reason why I ask is because there are a few .pp files in this directory that are not visible in the list of loaded modules, and they are also not available in the /etc/selinux/.../modules directory above. I today tried to figure out what these precompiled policy packages contain, but that isn't exactly obvious. I found .if files in /usr/share/selinux/devel/include/... that correspond to the .pp files in /usr/share/selinux, but nothing else. The .if files only contain definitions, but don't these need to be used somewhere, such as in .te files? And what about the .fc files that the policy generation tool in system-config-selinux creates? Are such files not needed? Lots of questions, but the documentation on this subject isn't exactly stellar. :) Regards Ingemar ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

In the first case, a bug report would probably be appropriate. * Maybe the error actually occurs because of some mislabeled file? Correcting a label is surely better than adding some unnecessary permission. * I might want to develop policy modules for our own software, using new file contexts and new types. In this case, simply adding avc rules with audit2allow would be inappropriate, since the system does not know about my planned policy module. * I'd like to use the source for existing policy modules as inspiration for my own work.

Well I wanted the facts about ReiserFS in the kernel and so I poked and googled some more and the part about the maintenance of reiserfs in the kernel was unfounded hearsay. The real reason it is being phased out in distributions (not the kernel tree) is the questions surrounding it's long term survival without Hans and Namesys to provide support for it. > ext4 is being previewed in Fedora 9 this month, so add one more to > the list. > > I heard the Reiser FS is going to be replaced with the Peterson FS ;-) There is a punch line in there somewhere, but my mind just isn't that sharp today. -Ross __ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.

No doubt! The worse part is I don't believe it was premeditated.

Ahm, it wasn't money that influenced the OJ case, it was, race, coupled with incompetence on the side of the prosecution. Now if Reiser had kept his mouth shut he might have just been acquitted. He had a good attorney, that attorney gave him sound advise and he chose to ignore it anyways. I also believe if he had confessed to what happened he would have received manslaughter, though after the cover up he would have gotten the max sentence plus obstruction of justice and God knows what else, but still less than first degree. -Ross - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: centos@centos.org Sent: Mon May 05 18:41:10 2008 Subject: [CentOS] Way OT Re: OT- Re: ext3 filesystems larger than 8TB on 5-5-2008 3:24 PM John R Pierce spake the following: > Ross S.

[CentOS] Postfix+MySQL - how to create DB
Hi All, I'm toying around with Postfix and MySQL on a CentOS 4 server (no longer using stock postfix and mysql rpms, obviously). I've read several "How-TOs", and it all looks fairly easy to do. The one thing that puzzles me is the table structure for the postfix mysql database: where is everyone getting it? Also, I've noticed that some people create more tables than others. But, this looks like it's just based on which bits of postfix people want to put into the database. I can just copy the SQL people have posted to create the tables I want. I'd much rather know if there is an official source for this, though. So far I haven't found it.
