tux_1234567 | how do i run php under a different user? | 02:14 |
Nafallo | there is something called suphp. that's about as much details I have though | 02:15 |

Slyboots | What my disk usage is like? | 02:22 |
Slyboots | Sort of like Top? but for Disk/Network utilization? | 02:22 |
Nafallo | iotop? | 02:23 |
Slyboots | Is there just a freaking top program for everything? | 02:23 |
Slyboots | Hmm.. | 02:25 |
Slyboots | 30M/sec read | 02:25 |
Slyboots | Which is.. smbf | 02:25 |
Slyboots | Seems slow | 02:25 |
Slyboots | Its hard to know what sort of speed I *should* be expecting though | 02:28 |
Slyboots | I mean.. GigE is about what? 125M/Sec | 02:30 |
Slyboots | A 7200RPM is what.. half that? | 02:31 |
Slyboots | Okay this doesnt really addup | 02:39 |
Slyboots | Hdparm states it can read from the disk at about 75MB/sec | 02:40 |
Slyboots | Its GigE networking | 02:40 |
Slyboots | So whyt does the laptop trasfer files at 20/30M/sec | 02:40 |
pmatulis | Slyboots: compose yourself | 02:43 |
Slyboots | Hm | 02:43 |
Slyboots | Sorry; Im just trying to work out why Im getitng so much (apparent) performance loss on my NAS) | 02:47 |
pmatulis | Slyboots: i've never met anyone who was happy with their i/o | 02:48 |
Slyboots | hehe; But it seems a lot slower than what i should be getting.. 20M/sec over Samba.. | 02:50 |
pmatulis | Slyboots: try some other protocol and compare | 02:51 |
Slyboots | AYe; Been trying to get nfs to work but.. meh.. thats another story | 02:52 |

milligan | Morning. Anyone here experienced with wifi networks? I'm having some problems at home .. I'm getting packet loss to the router, and it's working quite unstable in general. I have a D-Link DIR-615. There are about 15 wifi networks in the area, so I'm suspecting interference, but forcing the channel to the most lone one (1) didn't make any noticable difference. Any suggestions ? | 08:35 |
RoyK | milligan: hardly an ubuntu server question, but have you tried to change channel? | 08:55 |
milligan | "but forcing the channel to the most lone one (1) didn't make any noticable difference" :) | 09:01 |
gobbe | g or n wlan? | 09:03 |
milligan | It's set to run b/g or n | 09:11 |
gobbe | ok | 09:12 |
gobbe | have you tried connection with another computer? | 09:12 |
milligan | not at the moment .. this computer has been working fine before though. | 09:13 |
gobbe | seems to be either broken wlan-router or just bad network coverage due walls etc | 09:13 |
milligan | tried booting this computer as well. | 09:13 |
milligan | the router is about 0,5 meter away from me, with absolutely nothing in between us :) | 09:13 |
milligan | and the router is brand new .. got it for me father in law for xmas | 09:13 |
milligan | perhaps it would help setting it to n only.. ? Or would I maybe render the network useless to older machines then ? | 09:15 |
gobbe | well, can you move your computer more away from router, wlan's signal can be poor if you sit too close to router | 09:15 |
gobbe | well, if you change it to n only it gives you better signal, less noise | 09:15 |
gobbe | and ofcourse, if your old computer doesn't support n, you cannot use it | 09:15 |
milligan | What's CTS mdoe? | 09:17 |
milligan | And are long or short preambles best ? | 09:17 |
milligan | Locked it to channel 1 again and made some tweaking to the encrpytion method .. seems better now | 09:33 |

shaggy2 | thank you and hopefully one last question I need to install geoip is it in the aptitude or do I need to do a wget from a website, I am following a tutorial however I find that apt-get is so much easier and just wondering if it is or not | 14:43 |
qman__ | shaggy2, use apt-cache search | 15:08 |
shaggy2 | hello I am installing geoip on my ubuntu 10.10 server, just got a little confused, the tutorial say's "Add the directory libGeoIP was installed in, i.e. /usr/local/lib (and that is correct) to /etc/ld.so.conf, and exclude ldconfig. my confusion comes from "include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf" is currently in the ld.so.conf and nothing else | 15:47 |
shaggy2 | do I just write include /usr/local/lib or do I add to that /libGeoIP.so and leave include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf in it or remove include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf and input something else to exclude the file | 15:49 |

dob_ | hello guys, i have BIG problems with raid and lvm. I created a raid5 with sda5 sdb5 sdc5. Then i run pvcreate /dev/md2 (my created raid). Then this appears: Wiping software RAID md superblock on After a reboot the system is not able to boot anymore. Then in mdstat there is a new array md2 which has sda sdb sdc as drives. What da hell is going on with it? I am using ubuntu 10.04 | 19:23 |
dob_ | and if it's important: I am using GPT. | 19:24 |
gobbe | did you create raid on running system or in installation? | 19:30 |
dob_ | i tried both | 19:33 |
gobbe | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID | 19:33 |
dob_ | There is no hint about that problem.... | 19:35 |
gobbe | well, did you do it like that document tells you to do? | 19:38 |
dob_ | Yes i created it like that and everything works fine until i execute pvcreate /dev/md2. After that the system thinks the raid is based on physical devices not the sda5 , sdb5 and sdc5 partitions. So after coming up (after pvcreate) the whole system is killed by mdadm, cause all my partitions are overwritten by the sync. | 19:41 |
dob_ | i am using three 2TB WD HDD's. So i also have to use GPT as partition table format. | 19:42 |
dob_ | I often created raid arrays, but never had such strange problems. | 19:42 |
RoyK | what does GPT have to do with MD? | 19:42 |
RoyK | just use the disk devices | 19:43 |
RoyK | no need to partition them | 19:43 |
RoyK | sda,sdb... | 19:45 |
=== squishy is now known as SquishyNotHere | ||
dob_ | I want my system partitions in a raid1 configuration and only my data partitions in raid5 | 19:48 |
RoyK | on the same drives? | 19:48 |
dob_ | yes | 19:48 |
RoyK | bad idea imho | 19:48 |
RoyK | get some old 20GB ATA drives for the root | 19:49 |
RoyK | use new stuff for the data | 19:49 |
RoyK | a couple of usb pen drives will work well for the root | 19:49 |
dob_ | I ony have 4 sata ports 3 for my drives and 1 for DVD. So i can't add another hdd. | 19:49 |
dob_ | okay, i will try with USB. Is the boot time slow with USB? | 19:50 |
RoyK | doesn't matter much - how often do you reboot? | 19:50 |
RoyK | usb pen drives will probaly work as fast as your spinning ones for that use | 19:51 |
RoyK | also, a new sata controller will probably cost you $50 or less :P | 19:52 |
dob_ | but i need the only pci-e slot i have for another card.... | 19:54 |
RoyK | just use a pen drive for the root | 19:54 |
RoyK | or two | 19:55 |
dob_ | Yes, i am currently installing on the pen drive. Hope it will work! Should i add swapspace on the pendrive? | 19:57 |
dob_ | And i will have to do a normal installation no special pen drive stuff or something else, right? | 20:01 |
dob_ | pen drive installation is really slow an i was reading that the boot time is about 60 seconds or more | 20:07 |
dob_ | but i still think it's a big bug that the lvm wipes my md superblock and then the system thinks the array is based on the physical drives | 20:20 |
RoyK | dob_: it doesn't matter much - once the system has booted, everything will be in ram | 20:22 |
gobbe | dob_: well, it works like it should | 20:22 |
* RoyK would recommend something like openindiana and zfs for data storage, though | 20:22 | |
gobbe | yea | 20:22 |
gobbe | zfs is amazing for data storage | 20:23 |
* RoyK has a couple of 100TB systems running on openindiana | 20:23 | |
dob_ | Can i create a raid5 and then place my root on it? Is it possible to boot from a software raid5? | 20:23 |
gobbe | no | 20:23 |
gobbe | it's only possible to boot from raid1 | 20:23 |
gobbe | when using software-raid | 20:23 |
RoyK | http://pastebin.com/p3ids68M | 20:24 |
RoyK | dob_: if this is a storage machine, please consider using something with native zfs - it rocks | 20:25 |
RoyK | if it's a general purpose machine, openindiana and the likes will be harder to manage than ubuntu | 20:26 |
dob_ | nice, but i need linux, cause i want to create a TV-Streaming server for my homenetwork. So i need DVB devices etc. | 20:26 |
RoyK | ic | 20:26 |
RoyK | then perhaps zfs fuse | 20:26 |
RoyK | it's quite bad on write performance, but good on reads | 20:27 |
RoyK | apt-get install zfs-fuse | 20:27 |
dob_ | i worked with opensolaris for a storage system | 20:27 |
RoyK | ok | 20:27 |
dob_ | wasn't there any native implementation? | 20:27 |
dob_ | I heared about that... | 20:27 |
RoyK | there's one in the works, but I guess it takes some months for it to finish | 20:27 |
RoyK | but recent zfs-fuse should be quite good for read performance | 20:28 |
RoyK | albeit a bit low on the writes | 20:28 |
gobbe | RoyK: but it doesn't support all zfs features | 20:28 |
gobbe | like snapshots | 20:29 |
RoyK | huh? I'm quite sure it does | 20:29 |
dob_ | https://github.com/behlendorf/zfs/ | 20:29 |
gobbe | RoyK: at least it didn't support snapshot etc earlier when i tried it | 20:31 |
gobbe | i'm not sure do they have implemented them yet | 20:31 |
gobbe | there's issues with zfs and linux, because zfs's license isn't good enough for linux kernel | 20:31 |
* RoyK checks | 20:31 | |
RoyK | with zfs in userspace, there's no problem | 20:31 |
dob_ | what about btrfs? | 20:32 |
RoyK | not stable | 20:34 |
RoyK | btw, zfs snapshots work with ubuntu 10.10 | 20:34 |
RoyK | just tested | 20:34 |
gobbe | ok | 20:34 |
gobbe | so they have implemented it | 20:34 |
gobbe | great | 20:34 |
gobbe | :) | 20:34 |
RoyK | dob_: using btrfs in production is playing with matches and gazoline | 20:44 |
dob_ | i am not sure what i should do now.... USB pen drive seems to slow for regular boot. BTRFS is unstable, ZFS with fuse looks a bit like a hack, mdadm raid5 does not work with lvm in my configuration. | 20:47 |
dob_ | Can i grow/resize the md2 partition without lvm? | 20:48 |
RoyK | zfs fuse is quite stable | 20:48 |
RoyK | no | 20:48 |
RoyK | don't think so | 20:48 |
RoyK | boot time shouldn't be a problem - how often do you really boot the system? after bootup, most of the stuff is cached in ram | 20:49 |
dob_ | with zfs fuse i can create a raid-Z? | 20:49 |
RoyK | yes | 20:49 |
RoyK | zpool create mypool raidz somedev anotherdev .... | 20:49 |
dob_ | i am booting very often | 20:50 |
RoyK | why? | 20:50 |
dob_ | the system is going to S3 if not used. | 20:50 |
RoyK | the important thing is data access, not boot times | 20:50 |
RoyK | s3? | 20:51 |
dob_ | suspend mode | 20:52 |
dob_ | it's a home server, media, video, streaming system | 20:53 |
RoyK | that doesn't mean it's being rebooted | 20:53 |
dob_ | the system is turned off, everything will be removed from RAM | 20:53 |
RoyK | please try zfs - see how it works | 20:54 |
dob_ | okay, thank u, i will try that!!! | 20:54 |
RoyK | zpool create somepool raidz2 sda sdb sdc | 20:54 |
RoyK | something like that | 20:54 |
RoyK | erm - or raidz | 20:54 |
RoyK | raidz2 is double parity | 20:55 |
dob_ | zpool create somepool raidz2 sda5 sdb5 sdc5 should also work, right? | 20:55 |
dob_ | erm raidz | 20:55 |
RoyK | it should, yes, but aren't you booting on an usb stick? | 20:55 |
dob_ | thinking about creating raid1 on boot and root and use zfs for my data, so i would not need to install on usb ( read performance ) | 20:56 |
dob_ | i will try both solutions.... | 20:57 |
dob_ | thank u! | 20:57 |
RoyK | performance is what you need for data, not system | 20:57 |
RoyK | the system will boot up quite quickly on usb | 20:57 |
RoyK | and using whole drives will help you move the system to something new when that's needed | 20:58 |
RoyK | imho Never mix system and data drives | 20:58 |
dob_ | okay, i will try that. Thanks a lot! | 21:03 |
RoyK | dob_: also, if you find zfs-fuse to be too slow, keeping the data drives alone is still a good thing, even with md or lvm | 21:05 |
_Techie_ | is it possible to take a pre existing drive with data, and add a new drive and JBOD them together and expand the partition to cover the full JBOD? | 21:33 |
_Techie_ | or does this require backing up the data, creating the JBOD and re formatting the drives | 21:33 |
pmatulis | _Techie_: first question, are you using LVM? | 21:57 |
_Techie_ | pmatulis, no | 21:59 |
_Techie_ | i would like to point out that its just an idea at the moment, i dont have an extra drive at the moment, i just want to discuss ways of doing it so i can backup data in advance if need be | 22:00 |
RoyK | _Techie_: with lvm it's possible, not without it | 22:03 |
_Techie_ | also, what are the extents of ext2, how large can a single partition be, and what are the limits on file size? | 22:04 |
gobbe | _Techie_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext2 | 22:07 |
_Techie_ | tyvm gobbe | 22:07 |
RoyK | my little souvenirs from my last trip to iceland http://karlsbakk.net/xray.png | 22:09 |
