[CentOS] dell: mtpbase: ioc fault state?

2011-10-24 Thread Eero Volotinen
Hi List,

Any ideas what is wrong with controller? It is running latest 5.x
series of centos and driver spills out following warnings at random
times:

mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - IOC is in FAULT state (1600h)!!!
mptbase: ioc0: WARNING - Issuing HardReset from mpt_fault_reset_work!!

[CentOS] HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Controller

2011-10-24 Thread Richard Gliebe
Hello,

I'm trying to install CentOS 6.0 64bit on a HP ProLiant ML110 G7 with a 
HP Smart Array B110i SATA RAID Controller.

One logical drive (RAID 1+0) on the RAID Controller is already build.

CentOS Installation can't find the logical Drive, but it shows me the 
zwo physical drives (sda+sdb). After searching the web, I found 
following hints:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/raid-array-not-detected-new-hp-ml150g6-server-739130/

http://linuximagination.blogspot.com/2011/04/centos-installer-wasnt-detecting-sata.html

OK. Downloaded the file "hpahcisr-1.2.6-7.rhel5.x86_64.dd.gz" and do the 
dd from another Linux workstation.

# dd if=hpahcisr-1.2.6-7.rhel5.x86_64.dd.gz of=/dev/sdb (4Gig USB Stick)

starting the CentOS 6.0 64 bit installation from the DVD

boot: linux dd

After loading the kernel, the installer is asking whether I have 
driverdisk and asked to indicate which drive (sdc)

/dev/sdc is my 4Gig USB Stick.

My problem is now, the step "Driver Disk" is failed:
Failed to mount driver disk.

any hints are very, very welcome.

Thanks in advance
Richard

wild guess says, that isn't really a raid controller, that its a 
fake-raid, such as an Intel Matrix, where the 'raid' is done purely in 
the BIOS and the Windows Driver.

you're better off reconfiguring that for JBOD in the BIOS, and letting 
Linux see the physical disks (which it does, anywayas), and implementing 
mdraid mirroring in Linux natively.

I would expect the file should be un-gzip'ed before being written to the 
USB stick?

I have tried both.

dd if=*.dd.gz and dd if=*.dd of=/dev/sdb

If you insert the stick with the .dd file in another, running Linux 
machine, does it mount it?

If I try this I get a directory with:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root362 Jan 25  2011 fix_driver_order
drwx-- 2 root root  12288 Jan 25  2011 lost+found

well, your controller doesn't support anything else if its what I think 
it is.  the Intel Matrix RAID is done in the device drivers behind the 
OS back, as software mirroring.  The Linux kernel's mdraid drivers can 
do a much better job of this.

yes, I can mount it with -o loop

# mount -o loop /dev/sdb /mnt
# ls -l /mnt

The file name would suggest this driver is for RHEL5 (or CentOS 5),
not CentOS 6.  You would have to see if HP has an updated driver.

[CentOS] using KVM Virbr0 with bonded nics?

2011-10-24 Thread Bob Hoffman
Interested in bonding my 2 on board nics along with my add on card NIC 
for a total of 3.

How would this work with the virtual machines?
My eths/IPs ---> bond0, bond0:1, etc --->  ?   > virbr0,virbr0:1
(each machine to have own IP address, one machine may have some virtual 
sites needing more than one ip,
so multiple ips added to mix..)

add something to the bond0 file, or just leave it alone and mess with 
the virbr0 files?
I heard something about network manager not liking bonding and bridging...
anyone do this kind of thing?

Take a look on the dell lists (this search in Google):

site:lists.us.dell.com IOC is in FAULT state (1600h)!!!

But, that is normally indicative of a drive failing ... though it could
also be a driver issue.

The dell list is probably the best place to get an answer.

[CentOS] panga font failure in CentOS 6

2011-10-24 Thread Boris Epstein
Hello listmates,

Has anybody experienced the following:

[root@localhost ~]# system-config-date
/usr/share/system-config-date/scdMainWindow.py:232: PangoWarning: failed to
choose a font, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc',
script='common'
  self.xml = gtk.glade.XML
("/usr/share/system-config-date/system-config-date.glade",
domain="system-config-date")
/usr/share/system-config-date/timezone_map_gui.py:313: PangoWarning: failed
to choose a font, expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderFc',
script='latin'
  weight=pango.WEIGHT_BOLD)
[root@localhost ~]#

True to the warning, the fonts do come out as unreadable rectangles.

Anybody know why this happens or how to fix it?

Thanks.

Boris.

The situation is resolved.  The laptop was dead and
unrevivable.  Our internal network policies forbide
attaching any recorded media that have been outside the
gateway.  (The laptop was the president's, which is the
only reason it got on-site to begin with, sigh.)

In the end I had to mount the drive in an external usb
housing and plug it into a windows box segregated from the
network.  I discovered in the process that the read only
bit is ignored by windows when it is set for a directory. 
I also discovered that using deltree from the windows cli
leaves ghost folders where the files have been removed but
sub-directories have not.

Eventually I got everything off, the space marked as
clean, and then wiped repetitively over the weekend.
