eauxnguyen | hi all. Any recommendations for hardware for a small office server with raid 0 or better yet raid 5? Considering hp factory refurb.. | 04:03 |
---|---|---|
mralphabet | something you can get local hardware support for /shrug | 04:16 |
mralphabet | find out what the vendors near you are warranty qualified for | 04:16 |
mralphabet | or if you are doing the hardware support yourself then buy whatever you are comfortable with. | 04:17 |

eauxnguyen | it looks like I can get reasonably priced hp looking at the known good list at ubuntu for the promise raid controller.. | 04:24 |

tr0n102 | Is there a way to raid 1 the MBR across 5 drives using mdadm or raidtools (not not grub-install etc)? | 04:36 |
tr0n102 | Put another way: IS there a way to raid1 the first 512k of your hdd's in linux through mdadm/raidtools??? | 04:36 |
mralphabet | raid 1 is *2 drives* | 04:39 |
mralphabet | 3 drives is not raid 1 | 04:40 |
mralphabet | >3 drives is not raid 1 | 04:40 |
lcdd | why not? | 04:40 |
mralphabet | that's wrong actually | 04:41 |
mralphabet | >2 drives is not raid 1 | 04:41 |
mralphabet | there, fixed it | 04:41 |
mralphabet | lcdd: because raid 1 is a mirror, ie 1 to 1 copy to a second drive, a third drive doesn't fit into that equation | 04:42 |
tr0n102 | *sigh please google that statement mralphabet. http://www.peg.com/techpapers/monographs/raid/raid.html | 04:44 |
tr0n102 | anyways, for simplicities sake, lets just say I have 2 drives | 04:45 |
tr0n102 | how could I do this? | 04:45 |
mralphabet | use mdadm | 04:47 |
mralphabet | One can configure RAID 1 to have more than one duplicate (e.g. "triple mirroring") copy of each disk. | 04:48 |
mralphabet | my bad | 04:48 |
mralphabet | win 15 | 04:49 |
tr0n102 | Everytime a drive dies, I should not have to install grub into the MBR. The MBR is part of the Hard disk, therefore the Raid software should handle it! | 04:50 |
lcdd | you can combine whole disks instead of partitions | 04:54 |
tr0n102 | How can I do that with software raid lcdd!? | 04:54 |
lcdd | but i don't know for sure whether that will affect booting | 04:54 |
tr0n102 | do you have a link? | 04:54 |
lcdd | well, the same way as with partitions, i think | 04:54 |
tr0n102 | a hyperlink to this esoteric and forbidden knowledge? | 04:55 |
lcdd | http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html | 04:55 |
lcdd | i hope it is current | 04:56 |
tr0n102 | any particular section you were referencing? | 04:56 |
mralphabet | it is not current | 04:56 |
tr0n102 | hmmm but that brings up a good point. instead of using a partition as a device, use the whole disk as a device | 04:57 |

ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 09:37 |
jdstrand | kronus_: why not use another computer as your dhcp server, and disable that on the router? Then you can setup MAC addresses with IP addresses. | 09:41 |
jdstrand | kronus_: as for ifconfig not working-- did you remember to setup a default route? | 09:41 |
kronus_ | jdstrand: what is a default route? | 09:46 |
jdstrand | kronus_: it tells the computer where to send packets that it doesn't know how to route. Typical usage would be: | 09:47 |
jdstrand | route add default gw <ip of your router> | 09:47 |
kronus_ | ah | 09:47 |
kronus_ | i will try that | 09:47 |
kronus_ | I think it worked, thanks :D | 09:49 |
jdstrand | kronus_: you should see: | 09:49 |
jdstrand | man route | 09:49 |
jdstrand | man interfaces | 09:49 |
kronus_ | will do | 09:49 |
jdstrand | The second lets you configure these things in the debian/ubuntu way | 09:49 |
jdstrand | they will come up on boot automatically then | 09:49 |
kronus_ | so a dhcp ack would set up both the NIC and the routing, then? | 09:50 |
jdstrand | typically yes | 09:50 |
jdstrand | you are doing it manually, so you need to do both | 09:50 |
kronus_ | ah, route gw sets the gateway | 09:51 |
kronus_ | it makes more sense now | 09:51 |
kronus_ | I would go to #ubuntu to troubleshoot wifi, right? | 09:52 |
jdstrand | yes | 09:53 |
