Re: [CentOS] cluster - ip address lost when service stopped

[Fabio Macchi]

Hi Gowrishankar,

this problem seems to be related to cluster, not to bonding: bonding is working 
correctly, anyway I've tryied a test removing bonding, and I experience the 
same problem directly on interface eth0.

This is my cluster.conf



































Many thanks

Fabio

Hi all,



I'm trying to setup a cluster of 2 machines with Centos 5.2 to host a

software versions



rgmanager.i386 2.0.38-2.el5_2.1 installed



cman.i386 2.0.84-2.el5_2.2 installed



Every machine (hp blade server ) has 4 interfaces, bounded in this way:



Eth0, eth1 -> bond0 -> connection for public service ( 10.0.181.x )



Eth2,eth3 -> bond1 -> connection for intra-cluster communication (

192.168.44.x )

Then I've created a new Mail service with these local resources:



- Ip address 10.0.181.3



- Script /etc/rc.d/init.d/MailScanner



- GFS file system on a SAN



Service start, but the problem is that, when I stop the service,

external ip address is removed from bond0.









Hi Fabio,



Could you please attach the following files:



/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond1

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth3

/etc/cluster/cluster.conf



And "external ip address is removed from bond0." - I assume here

external IP is 10.0.181.41, right?

Hi Fabio



First, issue the command:

 $ rpm -qf /sbin/ifup

It will respond with a line of text starting with either "initscripts" or 
"sysconfig," followed by some numbers. This is the package that provides your 
network initialization scripts.

Next, to determine if your installation supports bonding, issue the command:

 $ grep ifenslave /sbin/ifup

If this returns any matches, then your initscripts or sysconfig has support for 
bonding.

Ref: http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Net:Bonding

Try configuring ifcfg-bondX using the contents described in the above link.

Did you look at Ext4 ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext4

"The ext4 filesystem can support volumes with sizes up to 1 exbibyte and 
files with sizes up to 16 TiB"

At least for linux it looks better that ZFS via fuse.

I don't use it. There's a src.rpm, so you can rebuild it. You will need 
gcc for this as well. This tutorial by the same person who built those 
rpms might be of general help with dkim-milter: 
http://www.howtoforge.com/postfix-dkim-with-dkim-milter-centos5.1
You could also contact the rpm builder and ask for an i386 rpm of 2.7.2.

I agree in general with most every opinion. Especially Davide's comment above. 
Very good analogy
Open Solaris may be your best choice.
I would suggest you do pay attention to Solaris itself. It's free (as in beer) 
from Sun & it works.

Here at the JHU libraries we manage about 1/2 PB of online data varying from 
images, audio, scanned documents, etc. in a ZFS instance on some massive 
storage. 
We evaluated all the iterations of ZFS on various OS's. ZFS/fuse was eliminated 
fairly quickly along with BSD.
For the critical stuff we use Solaris on Sun H/W. For general storage it's 
Solaris_x86 on generic x86 H/W.

[CentOS] TimeZone Mystery on a virtual dedicated server

[Ami Mahloof]

Hi,

I have a weird problem woth the time zone on my virtual (goDaddy) dedicated
server

I had to setup the timezone using system-config-date to GMT+7

i am in NY (GMT-5)

when i do GMT-5 i get all the times 2 hours ahead

seems like there's something im missing here

If i add an event to my web app let's say 7:30 - 8:15 , the only way for me
to show it right is GMT+7

can anyone help me figure out what am i missing here???

Odd,

What does the following show?
zdump /etc/localtime

And when you change it to GMT-5?

Also, why not use EST for the system time?

1. They can introduce problems that nobody can deal with in any way.

2. They could be discontinued by nvidia at any time.

3. They add another unnecessary "layer of complexity" to an already complex
system.

There's the first three issues that I can think of -- I'm sure there are more
but that should be enough to get you started.

To make it quite clear: both, top *and* bottom posting are annoying. And 
bottom posting is certainly even more annoying than top posting. The only

[CentOS] yum cannot find bittorent rpm at dag

I am trying to get the x86_64 isos of CentOS-5.2. I wish to use

[CentOS] Source for kernel.

[clemens]

Im brand new to CentOS, so this is probably a question with a simple
answer (if I only knew where to look).

Someone hans pointed me at the centos.plus kernel, which is close to
what I need, but I still have to add a couple of options.

So where do I find either the src for the centos.plus kernel, or a
diff from something like 2.8.18 or 2.6.28.8 ???

With this Ill be able to add my additional options...

Not sure what is causing the problem on your VDS, but wondering
whether or not you have contacted Tech Support at GoDaddy, to see if
they have a solution.

Which options do you need to add?  Try making a request at
bugs.centos.org .  They might be added to the centosplus kernel upon
the next update.

If you really wish to build your own, then refer to this guide:

I'm 386, but that shouldn't be all that different. Is it possible that
bittorrent is only available as a 386 package?

$ yum list installed \*torrent\*
Loaded plugins: allowdowngrade, changelog, downloadonly, fastestmirror,
  : fedorakmod, kernel-module, priorities, tsflags,
versionlock
Installed Packages
bittorrent.noarch  4.4.0-1.el5.rf installed   
bittorrent-gui.noarch  4.4.0-1.el5.rf installed   
libtorrent.i3860.12.0-1.el5.rfinstalled   
rtorrent.i386  0.8.0-1.el5.rf installed

The above makes me think (being essentially ignorant about all this rpm
stuff) that you might need to over-ride your architecture? And I got
then from rpmforge, not Dag's place so I don't know if it's there or
not.

I'm not sure how current that dag repo is. I know that Dag has been
involved in trying to get rpmforge going, some kind of involvement with
other repos, etc.

FWIW, I've this rpmforge setup.

$ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo 
# Name: RPMforge RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise 5 - dag

I only use the rtorrent, which has the DHT feature, so I really can't
offer any more than what I have above.

Just be aware that that version doesn't have the latest "in the wild"
features. When I looked into porting the latest some months back, I
found too many changes need for my experience level (python. gtk2?, ...
and more).

If you don't need all the "glitz", maybe one of the others would do? I
use and like rtorrent, but there's also this stuff

Available Packages
ctorrent.i386   1.3.4-3.dnh2.1.el5.kb  kbs-CentOS-Testi
ktorrent.i386   2.2.1-1.el5.rf rpmforge
libtorrent-devel.i386   0.12.0-1.el5.rfrpmforge
torrentzip.i386 0.2-1.el5.rf   rpmforge

There's others that don't have torrent in the package name, but I can't
recall them ATM. I saw them when I was running rtorrent to share my 5.2
images though.

A browse of the rpmforge site should lead you to alternatives if you
have the interest in them.

[CentOS] Source for Kernel

[clemens]

OK, perhaps I wasnt clear in my previous posting.
I am looking for either a SRPM for the CentOS 5.2 centos.plus kernel,
or more likely, a diff from the kernel at kernel.org.

I was pointed to the wiki, which MENTIONED a Source RPM, but didnt
point to anywhere to find these for CentOS.  All Ive been able to
find are ISO's .

I really dont need a bunch of tools that will complicate the problem,
a simple diff is what Im looking for,- its got to be out there somewhere.

This is what you'll see on a 32-bit machine - the bittorrent package
itself is a no-arch package, which means it doesn't care what the
underlying architecture is (translation: probably a scripting language
- shell, perl, python, etc.).  The 64-bit entries usually show only if
you are actually running a 64 bit machine.  There are also some
switches you can use that show more, but I'm not familiar with them
(DKDC :-).

This is only true if you have both the yum-protectbase and
yum-priorities plugins installed, in which case you should remove the
protectbase plugin - it is recommended that you _not_ run both
together.

Since the Nouveau driver is open source software, you're wrong.

So I answered the question that he asked.

Ultimately, you're better off to use video chipsets with good open source
drivers.  Currently, that means Intel and (recently) ATI.

note that CentOS kernel SRPMs are /not/ the full kernel source, rather, 
they are a bunch of patchfiles and scripts that build the kernel from

I was able to install bittorrent from Dag's repository using the gnome

Yeah, but I'm all for flexibility. I tested and found I could leave both
installed. I tested and found that just disabling protect and setting
priorities worked as I wanted.

So I ignored the "remove it" suggestions that abound and just disabled.
AFAICT, this is equivalent to "remove it" except that I can switch modes
more easily.

That depends upon one's purpose.  If, for example, one wants to use
mythtv, I would use an NVidia card with the closed-source driver.
Primarily because for what I would need mythtv to do, it works *much*
better than both Intel and ATI chipsets/drivers...

you can't, that's why it is called "default". You can add gateways to each of 
your interfaces by adding GATEWAY= to the respective ifcfg file in 
sysconfig/network-scripts.

I have wondered how a load balancing router like the Dlink DI-LB604 works.
This router has two WAN hookups so you can attach two modems to it and it
does some magic to route your outbound connections between the two Internet
connections.

I, too, have two Internet services (one cable and one DSL) and I actually
purchased that Dlink router with the objective of being able to use both of my
connections at the same time, painlessly.  It almost worked, too -- you can read
my experience here:

http://www.linux-archive.org/fedora-user/76381-di-lb604-load-balancing-router.html

I still have that router gathering dust in my basement as it appears the ssh
issue is an insoluble problem.

Since that plan didn't work out, at the moment Isimply have two separate
routers on my network, one for each of my Internet services, and set different
default gateways on the different computers to share the load somewhat that way.

It would be nice to get everything to work more like that Dlink router was
supposed to work, though.

This problem has disappeared, with evidently no action on my part.  It may
have been a transient network issue.  In any case, yum now finds
bittorrent.noarch in the dag repository.

A "simple diff" from the kernel.org version is not so simple as Red Hat 
includes a lot of patches and backported fixes in their kernels before 
CentOS ever sees them.

> note that CentOS kernel SRPMs are /not/ the full kernel source, rather,

They are the full kernel sources + Red Hat patches + CentOS[plus] mods.
For instance kernel-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.centos.plus.src.rpm has 
linux-2.6.18.tar.bz2 (the vanilla kernel.org version) plus 1908 patch 
files (versus 1905 for the standard kernel) plus assorted kernel config 
files.  If I understand correctly the CentOSplus changes involve only 
config options and patches not used by upstream.

If you want to see what CentOSplus has done to the sources as compared 
to the standard CentOS kernel (which should be very close to the RHEL 
kernel), a diff of the installed centosplus kernel SRPM source directory 
with an install of the SRPM from (for instance) 
kernel-2.6.18-92.1.22.el5.src.rpm at

http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/updates/SRPMS/

will show you.

As Akemi said in response to your first post, your best bet might be to 
put in a feature request at http://bugs.centos.org/

ok, but for example when i connect to one of that interface on port 22, my 
server doesn't try to use the second gateway? does it use the 
interface(gateway) on which a connection is started?

Re: [CentOS] 2 internet connections and one for backup

[Michael Holmes]

People, we're meant to be helping out others here. Can we stop arguing?
Vandaman was only trying to make the list more accessible. If you
choose to top post it interferes with the order in which people read
things. I agree with this view completely.

On another note, if you have OT comments to make on things to a
specific person, it is probably best to email it directly to them than
do it over the lists. So far 3 posts in this topic have been about the
problem. That's out of 18, meaning around 80% of this topic is just OT
rants. And in my opinion, most of those are not constructive. Wouldn't
you be annoyed if you had an urgent question and then people ignored
you, choosing to argue instead?

P.S.: If you'd like to shout at me about this, you know my email
address. Don't clog up the list anymore than you have to.

pfsense can do this, sort of:
http://www.pfsense.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=40&Itemid=43

Look for "Outbound Load Balancing"

E.g.: you can use a slow but symmetric line for mail and the other  
line with the large downstream for surfing.
If one line fails, the other takes over completely.

[CentOS] DNS resolver over IPv6

[Robert Moskowitz]

I have a Centos server that is running BIND and has IPv6 global addresses.

I have entered a number of  records into this copy of BIND in a 
local view and zone (tld is htt).

Over IPv4, I have no trouble with nslookup ('nslookup - 127.0.0.1' and 
'nslookup - 192.168.128.55').  I get the  records back.

But if I try to use the IPv6 address of the system I get a time out.  
Both from nslookup and from ping6.

I setup /etc/resolv.conf as shown at: 
http://docsun.cites.uiuc.edu/sun_docs/C/solaris_9/SUNWaadm/SYSADV5/p13.html 
(the only hit I got on configuring resolv.conf for an IPv6 DNS server).

I have turned off both ip6tables and iptables so it is not a firewall issue.

Even 'nslookup - ' does not work.  I seem to recall a problem 
with nslookup supporting udp over IPv6, but ping6 should not have that 
problem.

This is all on the single system running BIND.  I figure i got to get 
that working before worrying about other systems!

[CentOS] system config report

[David Miller]

Long ago when I was an AIX admin we had a script we ran every 6 months
or so and it created what we called the "System Book". It had every
possible configuration option. While acknowledging that on a whole it
was overkill documentation, if we ever had to rebuild the systems we
knew *exactly* how the old one was set up to compare it to if we had
problems.

I'm looking to do something similar for my CentOS boxes. Or better
yet, see if someone has already done something similar. I've poked
around google and sourceforge on and off for a couple of months but
haven't found much. The discussion lately about 'hwinfo' jogged my
memory. Anyone know of something like this? A template, even? An old
project that hasn't been updated but could be brought up to date?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Except for patches unless you want to browse Sun's website regularly to 
download them.

You also get more hardware support on OpenSolaris and support from Sun 
for OpenSolaris but I suppose the latter option is probably better done 
with Solaris 10 + support which includes access to patch management. 
Unless you like the way things are done over here in Linux land which is 
one tool to manage them all and not one tool to install packages and 
another tool to install patches to packages.

[CentOS] Upgrade from 4.7 to 5.2 problem with udev and ssl

[Thomas Dukes]

Hello,

Got cocky and decided to upgrade from from 4.7 to 5.2.  Have a couple
problems I can't figure out.

The first is I cannot access webmin securely.  I had to use
httpd.conf.rpmnew to even get apache to start.  Got it running but now I
seem to have no secure connection to webmin.

Next, I have never seen this before but I don't appear to have problems that
I have found.  Upon startup, I get the following:

You used ::1 then?

So what tool has replaced it?  I have only been using nslookup for some 
14 years...

nslookup - ::1

also had 'connection timeout, no servers could be reached'.

Which would be expected if nslookup does not support IPv6 (particularly 
if it has been deprecated and replaced with something else, what).

I changed /etc/resolv.conf to have:

nameserver ::1

in it, and ping6 -n host.htt. still got 'unknown host'

Argh. I like nslookup in command mode better.

So 'host host.htt. -6' (and without the -6 and with ::1) does not work.

My /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf does have the 'query-source-v6 53;' 
line in it and 'netstat -na|grep 53|more' shows a

udp 0 0 :::53 :::*

line, indicating that NAMED is listening on IPv6, and destination or 
source address.

So what am I missing?

I second the recommendation.  sos/sysreport will collect all kinds of 
stuff, generate a static html page for it, then tar it all up.  Trivial
to wrap a shell script around it to provide the inputs, email it off, 
stash it away, etc, etc.

Plus its the first Python program I ever modified (did I mention that
it is dead simple to extend?).

Have a look at this description of the issues related to multiple network 
connections.  

http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html

For incoming connections, the replies have to go out on the same interface.  
For traffic originating on your lan, you probably don't care and you 
can "load balance".  This article show you how to do that.

Cheers;

Re: [CentOS] 2 internet connections and one for backup

[James Bensley]

I use load balancing on my firewall, it had a spare interface and our
main office is out in the sticks, so I put our second slower
connection on the spare interface and set up load balancing so
technically its always in use; but our main, higher speed line is less
stable (because we couldn't get any further from our exchange and
still get serviced) so if it drops the load balancing goes 100% to the
other line?

Something like that maybe, its not the greatest but it works for now
until we can get a better service ;)
