ruben-5.0.22 is installed, bug is fixed in 5.0.42, they're at version 5.0.4504:11
sommerruben-: you can file a bug in Launch Pad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/04:13
sommeror you could compile from source in the meantime.04:13
ruben-It's no ubuntu bug04:13
ruben-It's a bug in MySQL04:13
ruben-http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=2736304:14

sorenYou don't have to pay for a *two* raid-controllers, actually. If your raid controller dies, you have to have an identical one if you want to have even a smidgeon of chance of getting your data back.09:51

ivoksZnuffy: you can't :) there is no grub binary in /boot10:14

jdstrandmathiaz: I issued the bug report, which you ack'd.  I then tried follwoing up with infinity, but had a hard time getting hold of him10:14
ivoksZnuffy: i would suggest booting from live cd and then chrooting to real /10:15
jdstrandmathiaz: so basically, nothing :(10:15
Znuffyivoks, I can't, / is on lvm10:15
mathiazjdstrand: ok. I was just going through the Action points of the last meetings.10:15
ivokseh :/10:15

Znuffynow, I wonder if this thing will actually boot o.O10:17
ivoksif you passwd correct root() command in grub, it should10:19
Znuffyivoks, yeah, but I was afraid of lvm doing something wrong, as I have some devices moved around10:21
Znuffyif only I could actually figure out what caused this10:21
Znuffywas working last night, and this morning *boom*10:22
ivoksgrub has nothing to do with lvm10:23
Znuffynevermind lvm10:23
ZnuffyI don't get it why this thing would randomly reboot and lose its mbr10:24
Znuffylast line in /var/log/messages.0 is "fileserver syslogd 1.4.1#20ubuntu4: restart."10:24

cld2I know this is generic but, on my home network I start an rsync and it goes for about 1 min at 75 megs ber second then slowly drops to 4 megs a second and just kinda sits there, some times it will spike back up to 30megs a second. its all wired all on the same switch. thanks.11:07
mralphabetlarge files? small files?11:08
nijabacld2: what about proc activity ?  How many files are you syncing ?11:09
cld2mralphabet: largish files, around 2 gig11:09
cld2nijaba: what do I look at in proc to see this? sorry im the suck at linux internals11:09
nijabacld2: I meant processor11:10
cld2oh, I dont know how to check that either. both boxes have 2ghz single core amd's11:10
cld2im rsyncing over nfs with progress turned on. so I can see that sometimes it can be fast.. and every now and then it will sustain 30-40 megs a second.11:11
nijabaso, can you (a) provide us with the result displayed by rsync when using --stats option11:12
nijabacld2: (b) run top while syncing and look at your load average11:12
cld2top shows 1.9 on the box doing the sync11:13
cld2so the cpu is just over worked.11:13
cld2now its at 2.1511:13
nijabacld2: what options do you have ?11:14
cld2nijaba: I dont understand sorry.11:14
nijabacld2: it could be that comparing changes for unchanged file is taking a lot of local activity11:14
cld2options for what?11:14
nijabacld2: options : what is your rsync command line11:14
cld2oh, i just did rsync --progress *.mpg /new/dir11:14
cld2there are no file in the place these files are being rsycned to.11:15
cld2and scp yeilds about 11/mbs and I figured that was because of the encryption overhead11:16
nijabacld2: can you do an 'ifconfig' and send us the results to see if there are network errors11:17
nijabacld2: encryption is not that much of an overhead if you have a "modern" machine11:17
cld2nijaba: thanks. I would hope 2ghz is modern enought.11:18
cld2on both hosts i have zero errors, dropped, overuns, or collisions11:18
nijabacld2: yep, sounds modern11:18
=== nijaba puzzled
cld2yeah, its very strange. thanks for the troubleshooting help.11:19
nijabacld2: and when you do a cp locally, you never noticed any slowing down ?11:19
cld2what kills me is I made this transfer yesterday in all of about 11 min, getting about 30megs/s the entire time, but had the wrong permissions on the folder. after I fixed that and retried its just been slumping11:20
cld2I cant say, this is a mythtv box. it never seems slow11:20
nijabacld2: in your top, what are the top 3 process in processor usage ?11:21
cld2on the reciving end no, never any cp slowness. thats the backend/file server11:21
