[CentOS] 'yum update' rollback or .. ?

2012-06-22 Thread przemolicc
Hello,

we have several physical servers (CentOS 5.*) with rather critical applications 
where (because of stability)
we don't do regularly 'yum update'. In virtualized environemnts (under Vmware)
we do a snapshot, then 'yum update', reboot and if something is wrong we 
rollback the snapshot.
On physical servers we cannot do that. I have read about rollback option of rpm 
but not sure if
this is reliable solution. What is your best practise regarding "rollbacking" 
'yum update' on
physical servers ?

One solution would be to use lvm snapshots. Create a snapshot of the
root volume (lvcreate -s VolGroup00/LogVol00 -n rootsnapshot -L 10G), do
an update and see if it works. If not, boot into rescue mode and copy
the content from the snapshot back to the original.
Make sure the snapshot gets the same size as the original volume. This
is important if you want to copy back all the data.

Assuming that you have problems due to a particular newly-installed 
package, you can downgrade:

rpm -Uvh --oldpackage package-2.4.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm

or:

yum downgrade package (if it is in the repo)

Since problems are usually introduced by a particular package (and not 
by all), this might be enough in most cases.

Note, however, that dependencies are not resolved automatically with the 
above commands, so they must be handled manually.

Another, more complete solution, of course, would be to have a full 
system backup (regardless whether the system is physical or virtual) and 
in case things go wrong, restore from backup (always a bit risky, I know 
- it makes you feel uneasy). We use mondorescue without problems (see: 
http://www.mondorescue.org/). I have been able to even use the backup to 
restore a KVM guest (using LVM) under VMware (you may see 
http://mondorescue-mailing-list.679749.n3.nabble.com/Mondo-devel-Restore-from-within-a-new-host-without-boot-td2251272.html).

Or - if feasible - you can attempt to virtualize your physical server, 
either using mondorescue or VMware converter (or other commercial tools) 
and be ready to use the virtual machine instead.

I am interested on other solutions too, so your thread is interesting!

[CentOS] SATA errors in log

2012-06-22 Thread Steve Brooks

Hi,

I have a SATA PCIe 6Gbps 4 port controller card made by Startech. The 
kernel (Linux viz1 2.6.32-220.4.1.el6.x86_64) sees it as

  Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE9123

I use it to provide extra SATA ports to a raid system.

The HD's are all "WD2003FYYS" and so run at 3Gbps on the 6Gbps controller.

However I am seeing lots of instances of errors like this

-

Device ID : 9123

I tried to see what drivers were currently being used but the command 
below gave nothing

grep -i 1b4b /lib/modules/*/modules.alias | grep -i 9123

I have changed the card and cables but still get the same errors. I am 
wondering if the el6 kernel is using the correct drivers I checked 
"elrepo" against the "Vendor:Device ID pairing" and it also came up blank.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Steve

Hi Reindl,

I should have mentioned I swapped out the hard-drive and same errors on 
new drive. I checked the SMART attributes of the drive and nothing 
untoward, also executed the

smartctl -long 

test wich came back error free.

dump

Assuming some form of ext[n] filesystem is being used. It has the
advantage that is also works with incremental backups. You can dump the
root file system and perhaps also the /boot filesystem.
Instead of the root filesystem, I dump a snaphost that is created each
evening. The snapshot has a frozen filesystem. So databases (mysql)
should just be consistent. If you want to be 100% sure, stop the
database, make a snapshot and start the database again. This is done
within one second, so hardly any impact on the live server.
Disadvantage of this method is that you still need the have a partition
table if you need to fully restore. And LVM and boot sector need to be
recreated. In case of disaster recovery you need this documented
properly (try it out at least once).
Advantage is that you can have daily system backups automatically created.

[CentOS] Cannot See Login Screen Anymore !!

2012-06-22 Thread Shiv. Nath
Hi CentOS community Friends,

It is CentOS 6.2 x86_64 machine, i have upgraded few packages using "yum 
-y update", after the reboot machine does not show login screen, i have 
allowed enough time to show the screen that are about 2 hours. booting 
process does complete, it just hangs when it is about to show the 
screen. i tried to check by doing ssh for warring/error logs. nothing 
serious was there. but when i did the ssh to the server then i saw the 
following error. Prior to the upgrade machine was just okay.. )

As I said originally, you might want to check out rkhunter. It'll check
your system for rootkits, and once configured - which isn't a big deal,
just a configuration file - will complain when run if something's changed.
You can tell it to look at your web pages.

Another thing to consider (and I really, really don't enjoy suggesting
it), is selinux. Turn it on to at least permissive, and it'll bitch and
moan if something's changed. Turn it to enforcing, and *nothing* will be
allowed to be changed. It is, however, a royal pain to configure, esp.
when you want to be able to allow a directory for users to put pics.

Crap. First question: what make & model are the drives on it? If they're
Caviar Green, you're hosed. WD, and *maybe* Seagate as well, disabled a
certain function you used to be able to set on the lower cost,
consumer-grade models (in '09, I believe), and so when a server controller
is trying to do i/o, and has a problem, in server-grade drives, it gives
up after something like 6 sec, and does error handling, I *think* to other
sectors. The consumer ones, on the other hand, keep trying for 1? 2?
*minutes*; the disabled function allowed a used to tell it to give up in a
shorter time. Meanwhile, a hardware controller will, as I said, have fits.

As mentioned in the original post the drives are all "WD2003FYYS". I am 
convinced it has nothing to do with TLER enabled on the WD drives as we 
run hundreds of them using linux mdadm raid on motherboard SATA 
controllers with no problems in the last eight or so years. This appears 
to be specific to the SATA PCIe 6Gbps 4 port controller card made by 
Startech. There are four other HD's (WD2003FYYS) in the machine running on 
an onboard "Intel Corporation Patsburg 6-Port SATA AHCI Controller" with 
no problems.

I also see those are "enterprise" drives, not consumer grade, which
implies that they ought to work. It still looks to me as though it's
timing out, which I'd think is a function of the RAID card. You might see
if it has any firmware configuration options.

Thanks for the reply, the card is purely JBOD no RAID or other 
configuration available. It simply posts the SATA devices attached to the 
OS. I am wondering if it could be a strange symptom of running SATA3 
drives on this particular SATA6 controller but that is just a stab in the 
dark.

Hi Mark,

Yes that is the very card, the page says the chipset is Marvell 88SE9128 
but "lspci" shows

Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88SE9123 PCIe SATA 6.0 Gb/s controller

It is odd because the kernel reports it as "88SE9123" the web page says it 
is "88SE9128" as does the manual supplied with the card. Now the 
motherboard already has an onboard  Marvell "88SE9128" controller which is 
correctly identified by the kernel and works properly so I know the 
correct divers are in the kernel but the Startech card does not seem to be 
using them.

Given that both Word and OO.o produce such lousy, uselessly cluttered
html, I'm a tad loathe to install another wp... and I really just wanted a
command line conversion tool.

As a side note, I tried quanta about 6 years ago, and that did lousy
things to my html, too (going from edit to display and back, I think it
was, unformatted the *whole* document, left justifying all, even when I
*told* it to leave formatting...), so I'm not wildly crazed with web
editing programs.

Yeah, I noticed that too, and thought it odd.

I looked at the "manual", and the only thing that came to mind was to try
going into the BIOS and making sure that it was set to AHCI rather than,
say, IDE, or whatever.

tripwire and aide were two other examples and even with bacula you can
do this stuff.

All these tools scan the filesystem and store things like checksum,
ownership, size etc. in a database. One important feature in my opinion
is that the database is not stored on the client itself. You don't want
an intruder to get on that data, similar to why one wants a central
logserver.

To no avail do reinvent the wheel, there are plenty of tools for that.

Thanks Mark for the reply , I hadn't thought about the card posting drives 
in the bios, I assumed only the onboard SATA devices would allow you 
change the mode in the motherboard's BIOS. I will have a look on Monday to 
see if anything has appeared in the BIOS. I guess the default mode in a 
SATA6 card would be AHCI but yes worth a check.

Cheers,

Steve

Would love to use SElinux. I searched high and low for any kind of 
manual and there was none.
Most of the information online was for versions that were not on centos 
6, and little info on centos 6.
I am considering going back to it for the virtual hosts, dns servers, 
but for production web servers
I think it will take a long time.
I know that fail2ban will not work properly with it in any case, as per 
their own website.

It seems that to run the webservers selinux wants me to allow a ton of 
privledges to apache, the ftp user, and a bunch of
other things...seems like that defeats the purpose. And a script 
injection will have all those privledges.

I wish I had to time and knowledge to implement it...and add it to my 
handbook, but on a webserver that
is doing mail ins, mail outs, httpd, mysql, php, self made scripts, 
fail2ban, and host of other programs
it seems like it requires an experienced hand at it. Or a book.
Neither of which are available to me.

Who knows, once I figure out the mutli_mysql back up, amanda, then I may 
go for it.

One thing I learned...SElinux in permissive mode only gives a warning 
once for an issue...and never again. Makes it hard
to play with it that way, would prefer a constant error variable to keep 
them coming.

well. We derailed.

No, selinux doesn't give 'extra' privileges to anything.  It adds
extra restrictions based on the context of the processes and the
files/directories besides the ones based on uid/gid.

Yes, it has taken years to get just the standard distributed packages
configured correctly - and that's probably with expert advice
available to the packagers...  You can't just drop it in on top of
stuff that has evolved organically for years.

Some googling took me to: 
http://www.freetechbooks.com/the-selinux-notebook-the-foundations-t785.html

It seems interesting and comprehensive from a quick browsing. And it's 
public domain too.

Yet, I agree that SElinux is a pain. There are other measures to keep 
things under control. Unless you know what you are doing with it, 
selinux is going to produce trouble and only trouble.

That's my experience.

(I don't know if I'll ever find the significant time needed to invest in 
knowing selinux well enough to use it in production.)

What's wrong with that?  You wanted HTML, and *any* browser will 
understand that HTML entity, even Lynx.

If you wanted "HTML I can read like an e-book", I'd say you should be 
converting to Markdown instead.  One path from Word to Markdown would be 
unrtf (https://www.gnu.org/software/unrtf/) to HTML, then HTML to

Look for RHEL's 5 or 6; there's professional documentation.

Not that anything's that wonderful.

There's also the selinux list.

Not true. It will issue an AVC every time something tries to happen. Big
things to know:
   a) ll -Z shows you the selinux context
   b) chcon [-R] -[urt]  
   c) getsebool and setsebool

Hate it. I think it's completely unnecessary. I've done web pages,
including professional and corporate ones, and never needed it. I use
special characters only when there's no other option.

Five centuries of typographers would like to have a word with you.

” and " aren't the same thing.  If the document includes curly 
quotes, the only correct alternative available to the HTML converter is 
to put out Unicode character U+201D.

Now, if your converter were converting straight quotation marks to 
", you might have a point.

> I've done web pages,

IMO, web pages with straight quotation marks are unprofessional. :)

Let the ASCII go, Mark.  Just let it go.  Unicode became usable over a 
decade ago, and became solid in most programs years ago.

You know, thinking about it, I believe I've sold the Unicode on Linux 
stability story short.  It's about a decade since it became solid, so 
"usable" must be considerably farther back; 2000, maybe?  That makes 
sense, since Plan9 switched to UTF-8 in 1999.

I use Perl as my benchmark for Unicode stability.  RHEL 2.1 (March 2002) 
shipped Perl 5.6 (March 2000), which was usable but dodgy in some ways 
w.r.t. Unicode.  RHEL 3 (October 2003) shipped Perl 5.8 (July 2002), 
which fixed almost everything with Unicode handling.  Each Perl since 
then has had Unicode changes, but they've just been small bug fixes and 
updates to track new Unicode specs.  The core mechanisms haven't changed 
since 5.8.

Yes, /etc/fstab contains /dev/md_d0p1 for / partition.

I have been doing some digging in the initramfs and the dracut script.

The initramfs does contain all the md related stuff like drivers, the
devices for md_d0 and the /etc/mdamd.conf.   To the best of my
knowledge these should be sufficient to load /dev/md_d0p1 (/).

I have not had a thorough look at the dracut script though.

I will post whatever relevant information if I find something that I
don't quite understand.

Hardware RAID? Ask the company you bought it from.

Software RAID? If you have two or more disks, yes.
