twbI just got bit on the arse by a permission change on vmlinuz files (kernels) on my netboot server.00:07
twbJust to rule this out: was there any change in lucid where new kernels are supposed to be (say) r-------- instead of rw-r--r-- ?00:08
twbNever mind, I can demonstrate the problem is not in ubuntu's code00:21
twbWait, no I can't00:22

mrrothhi02:05
mrrothanyone know if thier any type of thing like drobo raidz system for ubuntu or linux02:05
mrroththa tis open source and free02:06
mrrothbut works that ssame way02:06
JanCmrroth: what's drobo "raidz" ?02:07
mrrothdrobo is the nas, that allows you to add disk of diff sizes02:07
mrrothand still hav redunency02:07
mrrothand allow the raid array to grow is size02:07
twbIf by "RAIDZ" you mean ZFS -- no, you can't have a good ZFS on Linux.02:08
JanCit's some sort of RAID 5 it seems02:09
twbI've seen RAIDZ before sold as "ZFS uses RAID5, but fixed to be more gooderer"02:09
JanCbut different02:10
mrrothwhat does drobo call it02:10
mrrothso drobo is bassicalaly zfs02:10
mrroth"http://www.drobo.com/products/drobo-fs.php"02:10
JanCactually, it might be similar to btrfs02:10
twbWell, ZFS *is* similar to btrfs :-)02:11
mrroth"Data Robotics BeyondRAID solves these two critical issues, delivering flexibility without downtime. Built on an advanced storage virtualization platform, BeyondRAID chooses the correct RAID algorithm based on data protection needs at any given moment. Since the technology works at the block level, it can write blocks of data that alternate between data protection methodologies."02:11
mrrothoh02:11
mrrothI wanted to see if I could bulid a ubuntu server that had the same features02:11
twbUbuntu cannot guarantee no downtime02:12
mrrothoh02:12
twbThat's, uh, technically impossible02:12
mrroththat what thier website said02:12
mrroth:(02:12
mrrothit seem illogical02:12
JanCdrobo can't guarantee that either  ;)02:12
twbRIght02:13
mrrothoh02:13
mrrothbut at least the feature to keep adding new disk or replacing smaller disk with a bigger one02:13
mrrothto achive more space02:13
mrroththey offer that, I wonder if it was just some repackage opens ource stuff or maybe there was somethign in the Open source community that did the same02:14
twbI would say: buy two 2TB disks and put them in a system that can take at least three disks.02:14
JanCyou can do that with normal linux software raid, but the smallest disk will decide how much of every disk will be used then...02:14
twbRAID1 them.  At upgrade time, buy two nTB drives and migrate to a new RAID1 of those.02:14
JanCyou can always move from RAID 1 to RAID 502:15
twbThis is a simple, predictable and comprehensible solution.02:15
mrrothoh02:16
mrrothso at upgrade time, just copy data from the mirror, to the nTB biggersize disk02:17
mrroththen remove the two smaller nTB disk02:18
mrrothand mirror the Second nTB biggersize disk02:18
twbmrroth: you add the new disks to the array, wait for the sync to finish, remove the old disks, then tell mdadm to grow to the new disks' size02:19
mrrothoh so I can remove disk from the raid 1 array02:20
JanCthat will allow you to do everything without downtime02:20
mrrothsweet02:20
mrroththat acutally good idea02:20
mrrothand mdadm will expand disk to new disks ize02:20
mrrothsize02:20
mrrothbut I would have to have four bays right twb?02:21
twbTechnically you can do it with only two bays02:21
twbIt's just a little less fiddly if you can put all four disks in at once02:21
mrrothhow do i get to add two more members to the array02:21
mrrothor I remove one smaller disk02:21
mrrothadd the bigger one02:21
twbmrroth: you forcibly degrade the array02:21
mrrothand when it done synching02:21
mrrothoh so you degrade by removing one of the smaller disk from the raid 1 array02:22
mrrothput bigger one, it will synch and have same space as smaller disk02:22
mrroththen remove smaller disk, add second bigger disk02:22
JanCalways make sure you have backups of important stuff when you do such things though  ;)02:22
mrrothrebulid the array02:22
mrrothand then use mdadm02:22
twbJanC: well, the backup is one half of the array you degraded and removed :-)02:23
mrrothIS THIER A  ubuntu based NAS applaince?02:23
mrrothyea because it mirror02:23
mrrothbut always have a offsite backup02:23
mrrothraid is not backup :)02:23
JanCthere are several Debian-based ones02:23
twbmrroth: probably, but Ubuntu itself is a generic OS, not a NAS OS.02:24
mrrothoh thier a debian based one hmm02:24
mrrothoh02:24
mrrothJanC which debian do you recoemnd or I can google Debian  +nas02:24
JanCI think FreeNAS is now Debian-based?02:25
twbmrroth: normally one would roll their own setup on top of Ubuntu or Debian to get a NAS02:25
mrrothoh http://www.debonaras.org/02:25
twbhttp://wiki.debian.org/DebianPureBlends02:25
mrrothfreenas is what I was using02:25
twbA NAS is not a very complicated thing02:25
twbJust install ubuntu-server and then install (say) samba and nfs-kernel-server.02:26
mrrothOH I see02:26
JanCwell, the nice thing about some NAS OS'es is that they automaticly detect additional disks etc.02:26
mrrothbut I would need a frontend webbased management right02:26
mrrothoh they do hmm02:26
mrrothI like drobo but it 600 bucks02:26
mrrothand NO disk02:27
mrroththe NO disk part is fine, but the cost is huge02:27
twbUnless you're handing the system on to idiots, a CLI is the Right Thing.02:27
mrrothtrue that true02:27
mrrothand I can use ubuntu software raid02:27
mrroth:)02:27
mrrothI want three thigns, ssh (sftp), samba , NFS, and a webbased torrnet client, to download linux ISO02:28
mrroth:)02:28
twblinux isos my ass02:29
JanCmost commercial home NAS boxes have torrent clients already  ;)02:29
mrrothoh02:29
JanCeven many home routers have that nowadays, if they have an USB port02:30
mrrothyea but no redunecy :(02:30
mrrothhmm02:30
mrroththanks dude02:30
JanCI have a 4-bay Netgear device which costed about 300-350 EUR without disks IIRC, but I think it was an end of series or something  ;)02:31
twbmrroth: two USB sticks, then :P02:31
jformanmrroth: if you want a file server with backup, try what i do...raid-1 between two disks that export via nfs and samba, and use rdiff-backup to copy that data to a 3rd hard drive on the same machine02:31
mrrothJanC does it allow extra APPS, or is it just for samba02:31
mrrothright now I have three 500 gig disk02:32
JanCit runs some sort of minimal Debian-derivative and there is a toolchain available02:32
twbjforman: not rsnapshot? :P02:32
mrrothone USB encoulser02:32
jformantwb: never heard of it.02:32
JanCit has a SPARC CPU though, so not exactly mainstream02:32
mrrothI would like to mirror both disk, and just use enclouser for backup02:32
twbjforman: it's a perl shim for cron+rsync+cp -al02:33
jformantwb: yeah, thats basically what rdiff-backup is02:33
twbYeah, I thought so.02:35
mrrothJanC is your 4-bay Netgear device fast (throughput)/02:35
twbwho cares02:36
mrrothoh02:36
JanCit's certainly not the fastest, but in general fast enough I guess02:40
mrrothcool02:41

theamazingbeathi is this the channel to be for openssh issues05:13
theamazingbeatanyone?05:15
c0nv1cttheamazingbeat, it is the channel for server issues, just ask05:25
theamazingbeatokay So I have a sshkey dilema05:26
theamazingbeatyou can follow up: #ubuntu-beginners-team05:26
theamazingbeaterr wrong link05:26
theamazingbeatsorry05:26
theamazingbeathttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1659447&page=205:26
theamazingbeatthere you can follow up^05:26
theamazingbeatanyway I have tried basically everything to set this thing up and it simple just wont work out the way I want05:27
c0nv1cttheamazingbeat, you should be able to just copy or append the key to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the server side and it should work05:34
theamazingbeatwell when u use puttyGen doesn't it edit the key and change it05:34
c0nv1ctassuming /etc/ssh/sshd_config allows for RSAAuthentication and PubkeyAuthentication05:35
theamazingbeatbetter question, should i generate a key on my windows machine, or should i take the key already generated on my ubuntu machine05:35
theamazingbeatthey are and PasswordAuthentication is not allowed05:35
twbMy NFSv3 server is using 10% of the CPU just for lockd at the moment.05:36
c0nv1ctit really shouldn't matter, you should be able to import the private key into putty or export the public key to the server05:36
twbThat's a bit excessive; how do I "restart" lockd (it's a kernel thread)?05:36
twb10% of a quad-core Xeon, that is.05:36
c0nv1cti don't use putty that much, i use SecureCRT on the rare occasion i am on a windows box, so i cant help  much with that05:36
theamazingbeatshould i edit the authorized_keys with VIM editor or text editor? or does it not matter05:38
theamazingbeatcuz i hate VIM editor anyway05:39
c0nv1ctlol it shoudlnt matter, and you dont need an editor really05:40
c0nv1ctunless you have more than one key, you can just copy the public key over and rename it to authorized_keys05:41
theamazingbeatokay i have 2 files in my ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.... one named: aithorized_keys.swp and one named .authorized_keys.swo?05:42
theamazingbeatOMG05:43
theamazingbeati fixed05:43
theamazingbeatit05:43
c0nv1ctthose other two look like temporary files from having an editor open to me05:43
theamazingbeatlol for some reason my authorized_keys file got put into my Home folder05:44
theamazingbeatso all i did was move it to the .ssh folder05:44
c0nv1ctlol, there ya go05:44
theamazingbeatand BAM05:44
theamazingbeatdude i have been working this since thursday05:44
theamazingbeatalmost 1 week05:44
theamazingbeatcuz I am brand new to ubuntu05:44
c0nv1ctlol, i've been using rsa key auth for years05:44
c0nv1ctit took me a while the first time too05:44
theamazingbeatwell now i know how to do it05:44
theamazingbeatPersistence pays off05:45
c0nv1ctnow the trick is not to lose the private key ;)05:46
theamazingbeatya ima triple backup that file05:46
theamazingbeatWhile I have you I just have one more question. How do I basically map my laptop (windows box) to my linux so if I am not home I can access both drives via SFTP05:47
theamazingbeatmap my laptop drive*05:48
c0nv1ctbest bet for that would probably be cifs05:49
c0nv1ctjust basic windows file sharing05:49
c0nv1ctthough for a server you should really have the laptop map a drive off the server instaed05:52
theamazingbeatBasically what I want is if both my machines are at home, I go to a remote location, I connect to my linux box, how do i get to see my laptop drive as well at thew same time05:56
c0nv1ctyou can just share a folder in windows like you normally would and map that to a directory in linux05:57
theamazingbeatya how do i do that in linux?05:57
c0nv1ctcheck out both the samba server and client info ubuntu offers05:58
theamazingbeat:P05:58
c0nv1ctdoing a client on the server is a bit more complicated because it is all command line05:58

seniorgregorHello, I am experiencing frequent system crashes with ubuntu-server (8.04, kernel 2.6.24-28-openvz) on many production servers.  The system hangs.  Is there a kernel guru around?  Here is a syslog extract of the bug: http://pastebin.com/P5pmLw2k19:09
gobbehmmh19:10
gobbeare you admin of openvz-environment19:11
gobbeor buying your machines as virtual machines19:11
seniorgregoryes19:11
gobbei would checkout your NFS and openvz-environments CPU usages19:11
seniorgregorit always happens on the same vz guest, always apache httpd.  CPU and NFS usages are high since it is a very busy website, but they are stable..  nothing out of control.19:15
