[02:50] <roasted> Has anybody created software raid before? I just did today and my steps didn't complete as I expected. I looked at this guide - http://www.linuxlog.org/?p=144 - and there are screenshots I never saw. Can anybody help?
[02:53] <nandemonai> I have but not for a boot volume.
[02:53] <nandemonai> So different process.
[02:54] <roasted> I didn't set it up for a boot volume
[02:54] <roasted> I have a flash drive I installed the OS on
[02:54] <roasted> and two 500gb drives I configured as software raid
[02:54] <roasted> It never asked me to create an MD device, and it never asked me which kind of array I want (0 1 5 6, etc)
[02:55] <roasted> It just continued through the installation and I thought nothing of it. Then I booted up and realized the array wasn;t mounted. At this point I realized Ubuntu had no idea /dev/md0 existed, since it was never created DESPITE me selecting software raid on each drive.
[02:55] <nandemonai> Hmm I did it the manual way.
[02:55] <roasted> with the alternate CD?
[02:55] <nandemonai> Nope: http://rendai.homeunix.net/nandemonai/2009/09/27/installing-raid0-mirror-ubuntu-server/
[02:55] <roasted> or terminal after installation?
[02:55] <nandemonai> Terminal yeah.
[02:55] <nandemonai> Those are the rough steps I took.
[02:56] <roasted> yeah, I did that too, but then I formatted everything because I wanted to make the altenrate CD method work
[02:56] <roasted> yet it tanked on me again
[02:57] <roasted> I'm just not sure if I missed a step or something. After all, I never selected a mount point, but I think once I selected software raid in the partitioner menu options like file system type and mount point were hidden.
[02:58] <nandemonai> So it hasn't even created /dev/mdX?
[02:58] <nandemonai> To be honest I'm not sure how the installer goes about creating a raid. I assume much the same way as you would manually but haven't tried it myself.
[03:04] <roasted> I used this guide
[03:04] <roasted> http://www.linuxlog.org/?p=144
[03:05] <roasted> See how it has a screenshot for create MD0? I never got that. I also never got to choose what kind of raid I wanted, but I assume that's because I didn't get the other screen first
[03:05] <roasted> perhaps I did something wrong... I was just like, what the?
[03:05] <roasted> I can do the installation process again though and see what's up.
[03:06] <roasted> By the way, if I format each drive individually with gparted and "create a new partition table" would that wipe any trace of them being associated with software raid previously? I want to redo the installation from ground up fresh as if they were brand new drives.
[03:07] <nandemonai> Yeah new partition table will wipe the lot.
[03:07] <roasted> k, sounds good
[03:07] <roasted> appreciate your time nandemonai
[03:08] <roasted> btw, a regular "format" wouldn't??
[03:09] <nandemonai> Depends if you change the drive ID. Not 100% on that but a straight format would probably still have the drive ID as fd.
[03:09] <roasted> but a new partition table is a 100% nuke of that?
[03:09] <nandemonai> Yeah since the ID bit is written to the table ;)
[03:09] <roasted> gotcha ;)
[03:10] <nandemonai> YOu could just format then change the ID from fdisk.
[03:10] <roasted> yeha, but a new partition table hardly takes that long in gparted
[03:10] <nandemonai> True enough.
[03:10] <roasted> I'd rather "sterilize" it and be sure than just wipe it off and hope it's okay.
[03:10] <roasted> Know what I mean?
[03:10] <nandemonai> For sure.
[03:10] <roasted> thanks for your time bro. I gotta get to bed now.
[03:10] <nandemonai> No worries, good luck with it all.
[03:10] <roasted> have a good one
[05:01] <TVision> Hi. How can get operator priveleges in a channel I didn't create, if I'm the owner/administrator of the server? I'm using ircd-hybrid.
[07:07] <diddus> hello everybody
[07:11] <floown> hello
[07:12] <floown> I have a question about sed and substitution chain
[07:13] <floown> I want to remove the http://www. from my urls with this command : sed -e "s/http\:\/\/www\.//g" "my file.txt" now how can I wrote the result in my file.txt ?
[07:16] <jmarsden> sed -e 's%http://www\.%%g' <oldfile.txt >newfile.txt
[07:40] <RudyValencia> How do I configure an FTPd to save files as www-data:www-data with whatever permissions I need to set?
[07:56] <agrundner> got a rkhunter warning messages... says 'hdparm' in file '/etc/init.d/hdparm' - possible Xzibit Rootkit <~ False positive?
[10:20] <greppy> floown: you can also have sed make the changes in place and save your file to "my file.txt.bak" with this:  sed -ibak 's|http://www[.]||g' "my file.txt"
[10:23] <floown> thx greppy, I note this syntax too ;)
[12:25] <uuser123> if i want to remove package with config file which command i should use
[12:33] <greppy> uuser123: apt-get purge PACKAGE_NAME
[12:33] <uuser123> ok ,thanks
[12:33] <greppy> uuser123: which can also be discovered from reading the man page.
[12:34] <uuser123> sorry for that
[12:48] <uuser123> greppy: can u pls tell me i remove all apache2 related stuff and reintall apache2 but now i cant see apache2 installed in /etc/apache2
[12:55] <uuser123> -- /etc/init.d/apache2 restart .: 45: Can't open /etc/apache2/envvars
[13:38] <Rajko> hey guys
[13:47] <RoyK>  
[14:24] <uuser123> Invalid command 'ProxyRequests', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration  ---fail why i should  get this error on start/restart apache2 on ubuntu server
[14:33] <dassouki> interesting how my internet goes from fast mode to slow mode so fast
[15:39] <martin___> how do I enable IPv6 on my Ubuntu Server? I have a gateway and an address from my provider
[15:42] <RoyK> martin___: normally, the router should give you an address
[15:42] <RoyK> otherwise, man interfaces
[15:52] <martin___> RoyK: http://pastebin.com/1C60TD7d <-- there's /etc/network/interfaces and ifconfig
[15:52] <martin___> when I ping6 something I get "network unreachable"
[15:52] <martin___> ipv6.google.com
[15:53] <RoyK> try to traceroute6 it
[15:53] <martin___> didn't go that far
[15:53] <martin___> traceroute to ipv6.l.google.com (2a00:1450:4008:c00::63) from 2a02:40:40:9c::4, 30 hops max, 24 byte packets 1  2a02:40:40:9c::4 (2a02:40:40:9c::4)  3006.55 ms !H  3007.61 ms !H  3009.93 ms !H
[15:53] <martin___> also in ifconfig there's my IPv6 and then some other, what's that?
[15:54] <martin___> the "fe80::b4b4:faff:fec6:9e26/64" one
[15:54] <RoyK> fe80 is for ipv4 compatibility (iirc)
[15:55] <martin___> oh ok
[15:56] <RoyK> can you ping6 the gateway?
[15:57] <martin___> sure - this is what my provider gave me btw http://pastebin.com/xdeRX1Lg
[15:57] <martin___> moment
[15:58] <martin___> no I can't ping it
[16:00] <RoyK> http://paste.ubuntu.com/611451/
[16:01] <martin___> ok well, this is embarassing
[16:02] <RoyK> found it? ;)
[16:02] <martin___> nope
[16:17] <RoyK> if you can't ping the gateway, there is possibly an issue there
[16:17] <RoyK> is it in the arp cache?
[16:17] <martin___> arp cache?
[16:18] <RoyK> arp -an
[16:18] <RoyK> for ipv4 at least
[16:18] <martin___> it's not
[16:18] <RoyK> erm - arp doesn't exist on ipv6 it seems - sorry - my fault
[16:25] <RoyK> martin___: seems there are some ndisc tools around
[16:25] <RoyK> http://www.remlab.net/ndisc6/
[16:31] <martin___> thanks
[17:48] <tdignan> What is the difference between ubuntu server and ubuntu enterprise cloud?
[17:50] <rewt> enterprise cloud is for making a cloud server, while server is for making traditional servers
[17:56] <tdignan> what makes it more suited for the task than the regular ubuntu server distribution?
[17:56] <tdignan> is it stripped down and including support for virtualization rather than lots of different hardware?
[17:58] <tdignan> the thing that scared me the most was the word 'enterprise'... I immediately thought there must be some payment required by me eventually
[18:50] <Guest12672> I need help installing Ubuntu Server 11.04
[18:50] <Guest12672> cannot install Ubuntu server 11.04 keeps asking for a different disk than what was created from donwload
[19:01] <moose_man_1957> I am having a problem trying to install Ubuntu server 11.04
[19:02] <moose_man_1957> it hangs asking me for disc labelled Ubuntu-Server 11.04 _Natty Narwhal_
[19:02] <moose_man_1957> but that is not the disk created from the download
[19:25] <barnode69> hello, can somebody help me with password recovery?
[19:36] <rkhessel> hi all, when I try to transfer large files to/from my server via ftp/cifs, the nic goes down.  restart networking brings it back up
[19:37] <rkhessel> any way to increase the logging level in /var/log/messages to debug?
[19:37] <rkhessel> there doesn't seem to be a peep in there explaining it, and I guess my system isnt using klogd
[20:16] <jmarsden> tdignan: Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud is being officially renamed to Ubuntu Cloud, I think I remember reading that somewhere recently -- clouds are not just for big enterprises any more :)
[20:20] <twotenam> awesam
[20:29] <rewt> but can they still be used on the uss enterprise?
[20:31] <jmarsden> rewt: Try it and let us know :)
[20:54] <moose_man_1957> Help I cannot install ubuntu server I386
[20:56] <moose_man_1957> tried 11.04 and 10.04 basically the same message asking me to insert disc labeled Ubuntu Server (rel} (code name)
[20:56] <moose_man_1957> and all I have are the ISO images that end in I386
[20:57] <guntbert> moose_man_1957: my first guess: did you check that the isos are not corrupted?
[20:57] <moose_man_1957> have tried several different ones, the ISO seem to be fine I think
[20:58] <moose_man_1957> and the error msgs are so similar
[21:02] <guntbert> !md5sum | moose_man_1957
[21:38] <bencc> should I place sudoers in the /etc/sudoers file or under the /etc/sudoerd.d/ folder?
[23:21] <jstad> Anyone know how to get around the /dev/sd[f-p] constraint on ubuntu 10.10/11.04 ami's ?
