[CentOS] CentOS 7.x Russian certification

2017-08-18 Thread Gorazd
Dear all,

does anyone have any idea where to get a list of all CentOS 7.x versions
that are certified to be used within Russia.
My guess is that organizations, such as FSTEK, TR-CU declares those
versions/distributions of CentOS that are certified to be used with
commercial projects in Russia.

Anyone with some information on this, plase advice, I would be very
grateful.

Regards,
Gorazd

My main desktop is a CentOS 7 installation, and Tracker is a very useful

  I need to use it almost every a few minutes.

Yan, thanks for the point you make.  Could you please provide an example

Great, glad to hear it.  Thanks for following up. ;)



One more issue: while I can now switch between the two western keyboards and 
pinyin in the applications I use, as soon as I move between entry fields the 
keyboard selection resets to the default. Very annoying when you are using a 
second-choice western keyboard in an application and the keyboard selection 
constantly resets as you move between entry fields.

The pinyin setting, on the other hand, remains as chosen which is the expected 
behavior. I use the default Ctrl-Space to activate/deactivate pinyin and right 
Ctrl-right Shift to move between the keyboard settings.

Given the absence of a graphical configuration tool for fcitx in CentOS I am 
not sure where/how I can change the behavior for keyboard selection so that it 
does not change within any given application. Scott, do you know?

Thank you.

Unrelated to the disk space issues, but the systemd-private-*
directories are created by systemd services that have PrivateTmp
turned on.  THose services run with a private /tmp namespace, so they
can't see the rest of the OS's /tmp.

This morning. I sat down, opened my CentOS 7 laptop. It sprung back from
suspension. I needed to check my project plan so I pressed the start key
(some people call it Win key) and typed in "project plan". Tracker
Search instantly listed all documents in my home that have "project
plan" in either file name and content. I pressed down key twice and then
enter to open the file that I wanted to edit.

Five minutes later, I needed to edit a project specification. I pressed
the start key and typed in "MyAwesomeProject specification". Tracker
against listed all matching documents, and what I needed was usually
among the top few choices.

Another five minutes later, my insurer called and asked about some bill.
I need a spreadsheet so I pressed start key and typed in "calc".
LibreOffice Calc was the first choice so I directly pressed Enter to
open it. I always use this method to open any app I need, and I won't
have to touch the mouse.

After this call, I need to schedule a meeting with a partner in London
so I pressed the start key and typed in "london". Tracker showed the
current time and I could press enter to see the weather in London.

That's just what happened this morning.

Although I have to admit that the current GNOME Tracker extension is not
perfect. Sometimes the search results don't show cities. Hope the GNOME
3.22 from RHEL 4.7 could fix this bug and bring more desktop functions.

[CentOS] Problem with softwareraid

2017-08-18 Thread Mr Typo
Hello all,

i have already had a discussion on the software raid mailinglist and i
want to switch to this one :)

I am having a really strange problem with my md0 device running
centos7. after a new start of my server the md0 was gone. now after
trying to find the problem i detected the following:

Booting any installed kernel gives me NO md0 device. (ls /dev/md*
doesnt give anything). a 'cat /proc/partitions show me now
/dev/sd[a-d]1 partition. partprobe and a mdadm assemble gives me "disk
busy"

[root@quad live]# cat mdstat

Warning: parted was unable to re-read the partition table on
/dev/mapper/WDC_WD20EFRX-68AX9N0_WD-WMC301255087 (Device or resource

you made.

mdadm: /dev/sda1 is busy - skipping
mdadm: /dev/sdb1 is busy - skipping
mdadm: /dev/sdc1 is busy - skipping
mdadm: /dev/sdd1 is busy - skipping


booting from a usb stick for rescue my centos everything works. the
md0 device exists and is mounted. (rw).

[root@quad usb-rescue]# cat mount  | grep '/data'
/dev/mapper/data-store on /mnt/sysimage/store type xfs
(rw,noatime,seclabel,attr2,largeio,nobarrier,inode64,logbufs=8,logbsize=256k,sunit=256,swidth=768,noquota)

(rw,noatime,seclabel,attr2,largeio,nobarrier,inode64,logbufs=8,logbsize=256k,sunit=256,swidth=768,noquota)


3rd option: i am booting the installed rescue kernel from disk:
i am getting a md0 device, but its not started. when i stop the md0 i
cant assemble it anymore (disk busy)

[CentOS] Power Fail Protection Update II

2017-08-18 Thread Chris Olson
Many thanks once again to those that responded to my original posting
(and my follow up message) with information about Network UPS Tools,
other Linux-based tools like rtcwake, and commercial UPS products.
We have quite a bit more evaluation and testing work to do before
a power fail protection method is selected.  I hope the discussion
is as beneficial to others as it is to my organization.

Along the way, one of our users pointed out that some of our CentOS 6
desktop/deskside machines actually throttle back power consumption in
different ways than others.  Instead of the yellow/amber LED display
in the center of the power button, they flash green and then go solid
green after the power button is pushed and the system wakes up.  We
have also noted that none of our CentOS 6 systems restart on their
own when power is restored. This is the case whether power is lost
during normal operation or when the systems are in a standby state
when line power is lost.

These two conditions or states (yellow/amber vs flashing green) have
us wondering exactly what standby mode these systems are in and what
settings may have been selected to send them to their standby state. 

Is there some sort of standard that applies to the standby states and
are there BIOS settings or configuration files that control the what,
how, and when standby is directed? 

Thanks to all and best regards.

Re: [CentOS] rsyslog stops logging on service reload?

2017-08-18 Thread John Jasen

The long and the short of the story was that another misconfigured
client on the network was swamping the central logserver right after
logrotate kicked offed.

The best fix was to enable client memory/file queues.

That's plenty strange.  The output of "lsblk" might tell you why those 
devices are busy.

Are you definately using cables rated for sata III?  Have you checked the power 
connections?  Have you checked the power supply voltages durning spin up/later? 
 





Is there tension or major twisting forces on the sata cables?   I've seen this 
cause intermittent problems and was solved by using a longer cable that reduced 
the stress at the connector.





Are the drives getting hot (your' model shouldn't have a heat issue under 
normal conditions).  Are the drives bolted into a system?  Drives can be 
sensitive to vibration and identical, unmounted drives will tend to shake each 
other and can produce rotational torque as well (especially when the same model 
as they'll all have the same resonances in that case).  Either can cause 
problems with keeping the heads over the track reliably.




I'd definately run all the smart test.  start with the conveyance test and then 
the short self test, and possibly the long test.   do check the drive 
temperatures immediately after each test to make sure they aren't getting too 
hot.





I assume you've done an fsck on the file systems?  If not it might be good to 
check.




Are you using the mother boards sata interfaces or an add-on card?  If using a 
card i'd check the firmware version on the card and what the manufacturer is 
offering for updates.




Are the drives still under warranty?  If so try WD tech support.  Also check 
that all the Raid tools are properly installed with their' dependencies met.  
could be other hardware/drivers interfering.  might reset the bios to 
"optimized settings".  Which software raid package are you using?





Other than that I'd possibly suspect a software problem, not familiar with 
software raids myself (haven't used on, know what they are).  Or possibly a 
problem with the drive that is intermitant or complex in how it fails.
