[02:56] <michael_> Hey i have been looking for something on how to put a 4 TB GPT parition into RAID 1 with another but have been unable to find anything. Has anyone here had to do RAID one with anything over a 2 TB parition?
[06:08] <ruben23> hi guys i have a ubuntu server with system running already, now i added a volume to be used as strorage is it ok i create this new volume as rpimary partition..? it will not effect the existing system partition..?
[06:09] <frogblue> no
[06:09] <frogblue> how manw primary do u already have?
[06:09] <ruben23> what you mean..?
[06:09] <ruben23> i have one rpimary as existing being used by ubuntu server..
[06:10] <ruben23> i added new one for storage and selcedt primary partition on it..is this ok..?
[06:10] <frogblue> that's the beauty of asking several questions at once then u don't know what the answer is for :)
[06:10] <frogblue> yes
[06:11] <frogblue> are you planning to add more partitions in the future?
[06:11] <ruben23> possible
[06:12] <frogblue> then you might have to reconsider the overall partitioning scheme. gonna explain...
[06:13] <frogblue> you can always add more partitions at anytime. with an msdos label disk, you will be stuck at 3 primary + 1 logical (in which you can put plenty more partitions
[06:14] <frogblue> you can decide to have a GPT label, in which case you can add as many partitions as you want (ther's a limit but i don't know which one but it is irrelevant for most useres
[06:15] <lordievader> Or you jump to LVM, this give you the ability to make partitions on the fly, resize them, destroy them. Whatever you want :)
[06:15] <frogblue> you can decide to use LVM (on top of GPT, msdos) in which case
[06:17] <ruben23> thanks a lot for the info..
[08:05] <lkthomas> hey guys
[08:05] <lkthomas> our auth system is kind of messed up
[08:05] <lkthomas> password keep in LDAP and Kerberos
[08:05] <lkthomas> how do you guys sync between LDAP and Kerberos ?
[08:32] <jdmf> I'm using "debmirror" to create a local mirror of 12.04 and 14.04. I have problems downloading i18n using debmirror --i18n option. I have created a workaround, but I would rather use the debmirror for this. Any ideas?
[09:02] <bdbear> anyone know if userdir suppors webdav, and if so have a link for some documentation on how to implement it.
[09:23] <pds> looking for documentation on how to kickstart ubuntu server 14.04 - kickstart configurator gui or config file itself
[09:27] <frogblue> bdbear, haven't played with that since a long a time but I would say yes but it might need to have the userdir inside the dav folder
[09:29] <frogblue> bdbear, some stuff I gathered a while ago http://pastebin.com/95TzK4FV
[09:30] <frogblue> bdbear, and this I just went thru very quickly http://serverfault.com/questions/291104/apache-and-per-user-webdav-documentroot
[09:30] <bdbear> frogblue: tanks
[09:43] <pds> looking for documentation on how to kickstart ubuntu server 14.04 LTS - kickstart configurator gui or config file itself - working on a 12.04 LTS to do so though
[09:43] <pds> ubuntu 12.04 LTS desktop that is
[09:46] <kas84> hi guys
[09:47] <kas84> I’ve just installed ubuntu server (default install) and I’m stuck at boot
[09:48] <pds> does it give any errors?
[09:48] <kas84> the last line says adding 3604476k swap on /dev/mapper/ubuntu—vg-swap_1. Priority: -1 accorss: 3604476k FS
[09:48] <kas84> but it doesn’t show any errors
[09:49] <kas84> it was a default installation with no network config
[09:49] <lordievader> kas84: Where does /boot reside? In a LVM volume?
[09:50] <kas84> yes
[09:50] <lordievader> kas84: Hmm, that can be problematic. It's easier to put /boot on a separate ext(2) partition.
[09:51] <kas84> aha
[09:51] <kas84> okay, I’ll re-run installation
[10:34] <riply> Hi guys, I have just bought 3 new drives to upgrade an old intel s5000vsa server from RAID1 to RAID5, but ubuntu wasn't picking up the additional HDD. So I turned to the BIOS and it doesn't look like the MB is picking up the 3rd HDD either. I can sway the HDDs in the bays and they pick up all three HDDS, just not at the same time. In fact, it only registeres in 2 bays. So my question is - doesn't anyone have experiance with this damn motherboard haha
[10:37] <milissa> http://adf.ly/pyduc
[11:52] <RoyK> riply: check all cables etc. looks like this board has hwraid support - are you using hwraid or swraid?
[13:13] <see1> hello
[13:13] <see1> is the ubuntu php5-fpm bug fixed in the packed now?
[13:18] <patdk-wk> what ubuntu php5-fpm bug?
[13:19] <see1> packed error
[13:19] <patdk-wk> your not making any sense
[13:19] <patdk-wk> I guess you don't speak english
[13:20] <see1> not the most ..yes
[13:20] <josepht> s/packed/package/g I think
[13:20] <patdk-wk> ya, but package error doesn't really describe a bug
[13:20] <patdk-wk> it's way too generic
[13:54] <riply> RoyK, are you still around?
[13:54] <riply> it does indeed have HWR, but I am wanting to go SWR because I don't have spare controllers, etc.
[13:58] <RoyK> riply: IMHO there are very good reasons for using mdraid (the most used swraid on linux)
[13:59] <RoyK> the flexibility is far better than what i've seen on hwraid systems
[14:04] <rattking> on one of my servers I am having a strange issue. the login screen has the £ symbol in place of the black spaces. I am at a complete loss for where to start looking into this problem. has anybody ever heard of anything like that?
[14:07] <riply> RoyK, I totally agree!
[14:07] <riply> RoyK, now I just need to get this MB to recognise the 3rd harddrive..
[14:09] <rattking> I suppose I could start with the console font.
[14:10] <RoyK> riply: enter raid setup (BIOS thing, normally) and create a raid0 on the third drive
[14:10] <RoyK> riply: most RAID controllers won't show new drives unless they're configured as a member
[14:17] <riply> RoyK, the problem is though that on the SATA page in the BIOS, it only shows the 2 drives :( I will try the raid setup tonight when I am at home and see if it gets picked up on RAOD 0
[14:17] <riply> thanks man :)
[14:19] <RoyK> np
[14:20] <RoyK> riply: then, if you can make linux see it, perhaps create a broken r5 on it, move the data over from the old raid (or use external storage for buffer if the new drive's not large enough) and extend the new raid
[14:26] <riply> RoyK, there is no old data :) These are 3 new HDDs entirely. The old ones are going to be plopped in as another raid1 back-up in the box (there are a few spare bays). I ran the Ubuntu setup last night and it only picked up the 2 HDDs, not all 3. So I figured that it was a BIOS / MB issue? But I have never done anything other than a HWR 0 so this' all quite new and exciting..
[14:27] <riply> RoyK, so I just need to be able to get the Ubuntu Installer to see it and then was going to use the built-in SWR installer? Or is there a better way to do it?
[14:31] <samba35> i have messed dpkg /var/cache/ with rm now i am not able to install any package can you please tell me how do i rebuild dpkg /debconf so i can install any package
[14:36] <samba35> dpkg: error: cannot read info directory: No such file or directory
[14:36] <samba35> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[14:49] <RoyK> riply: then just configure three RAID-0 sets, one on each drive, or use JBOD if the controller supports it. Same result. Ubuntu should see the drives as separate drives if you do this correctly
[14:58] <RoyK> riply: any luck?
[15:16] <smoser> hallyn_, i assume the answer is yes.
[15:17] <smoser> but lxc-device will set permissions on the added device to match the user namespace of the container?
[15:26] <zartoosh> Hi I am trying very hard to create ubuntu iso from trusty with uefi enabled (remaster iso). Could someone please let me know how to do this please? thx
[15:27] <RoyK> zartoosh: afaik the normal iso should support uefi
[15:29] <zartoosh> RoyK: yes but I had to customize it for our use. I needed to add preseed file (no internet access). Any idea how to do it please?
[15:29] <RoyK> no, sorry
[15:30] <RoyK> no internet access on install?
[15:30] <zartoosh> what i mean is that we need to remaster the iso, because of our lab environment
[15:32] <RoyK> ok
[15:32] <RoyK> sorry, can't help there
[15:32] <RoyK> haven't done that in years
[15:44] <caribou> rharper: are you chairing the meeting this week ?
[15:44] <caribou> rharper: just to let you know that I won't be able to be there. Nothing particular on my side
[15:51] <gnuoy> jamespage, is https://code.launchpad.net/~gnuoy/python-ceilometerclient/update-control/+merge/225187 on the right lines ?
[15:53] <gaughen> caribou, it's lutostag this week
[15:53] <jamespage> gnuoy, looking OK - your new friend is going to be "wrap-and-sort -s"
[15:53] <gaughen> unless lutostag bribed rharper to do it for him
[15:54] <jamespage> gnuoy, also watch out for epochs
[15:54] <jamespage>  python-keystoneclient | 1:0.9.0-0ubuntu1 | utopic  | source, all
[15:54] <jamespage> so python-keystoneclient needs to be (>= 1:0.9)
[15:55] <gnuoy> jamespage, wrap-and-sort is defo my new bezzy mate
[15:55] <gnuoy> jamespage, ok, let me fix those things, thanks
[15:57] <jamespage> gnuoy, trying to make another comment on the MP - LP is not being friendly
[15:58] <gnuoy> jamespage, thats me
[15:58] <gnuoy> I yanked the mp
[15:58] <jamespage> ah
[15:58] <gnuoy> sorry about that
[15:58] <jamespage> gnuoy, np - you can always mark then work-in-progress and keep pushing your branch with updates
[15:59] <gnuoy> ah, perfect
[16:00] <caribou> gaughen: ah ok thanks.
[16:00] <caribou> lutostag: just to let you know that I won't be able to be there. Nothing particular on my side
[16:01] <lutostag> caribou: alright, that works; thanks for the heads up
[16:34] <gnuoy> jamespage, where I'm seeing something like "pbr>=0.6,!=0.7,<1.0" and 0.8.2 is in the archive I'm going for (>= 0.8.2). Does that sound sane ?
[16:37] <jamespage> gnuoy, +1
[16:38] <gnuoy> ta
[16:38] <jamespage> gnuoy, I'd probaly drop to 0.8
[16:38] <gnuoy> ok
[17:03] <hallyn_> smoser: you cannot use a device in a user namespace
[17:04] <hallyn_> so i doubt whether lxc-device currently bothers to chown the device to the container root
[17:04] <hallyn_> stgraber: ^ right?
[17:04] <smoser> why can you not use a device in user namespace?
[17:05] <stgraber> hallyn_: I believe lxc-device simply errors out if called against an unprivileged container
[17:05] <hallyn_> kernel won't let you
[17:05] <zoraj> hello there, I'm just setting up Subversion on my server running the latest version, but I can't find where can I start the subversion daemon
[17:05] <smoser> hallyn_, how does the kernel not let you?
[17:06] <zoraj> it says /etc/init.d/svnserve
[17:06] <smoser> if i create the device node inside that container
[17:06] <smoser> ^ as root
[17:06] <zoraj> but there is no file like that on the directory
[17:06] <smoser> and then change ownership and permissions on that such that the root user inside the container owns it
[17:06] <hallyn_> smoser: anything requiring capabilities for device access will require that you have the capability against the init namespace
[17:06] <smoser> shouldn't that work?
[17:07] <hallyn_> if the device itself doesnt' require any capabilities to use it, then yes
[17:07] <smoser> well lxc-device only works for block devices and network devices
[17:08] <smoser> er.. ok it does work for more things . i thought man page said otherwise.
[17:08] <smoser> but i'm only interested in block and net.
[17:09] <hallyn_> hm, net devices should be do-able.
[17:10] <hallyn_> stgraber: ^ if root has created an unprrivileged container it should be able to pass in nic's
[17:10] <hallyn_> smoser: if that doesn't work for you, open a bug pls
[17:12] <smoser> hallyn_, well if it doesn't set permissions to the namespaced permissions its not goign to work.
[17:13] <stgraber> hallyn_: hmm, indeed
[18:14] <zoraj> hi there
[18:15] <zoraj> I've just finished installing subversion on my box, and installing subversion on it, I try to check out my repo using this command svn+ssh://192.168.1.2
[18:15] <zoraj> --username my_user_name
[18:16] <zoraj> it doesn't recognize my password
[18:16] <sarnold> zoraj: it's been a while since I've used svn, but iirc svn+ssh lets you set the username via a ~/.ssh/config entry for that host...
[18:16] <sarnold> zoraj: can you ssh username@192.168.1.2?
[18:17] <sarnold> zoraj: it'd be best to set up key-based authentication instead anyway, but you need to be able to log in somehow in the first place :)
[18:17] <zoraj> sarnold, ssh-ing username@192... works fine
[18:19] <zoraj> is it the same password that I use to connect with ssh ? or there is some svn.conf that I have to edit ?
[18:20] <sarnold> zoraj: iirc the svnserve method might have usernames / passwords in an auth file, but the svn+ssh method just worked if you could log in..
[18:21] <zoraj> I prefer the svn+ssh method
[18:21] <sarnold> yeah, I think I would too :)
[18:22] <sarnold> zoraj: hmm. well, log in to the remote server, tail -f /var/log/auth.log, and then try your svn co command again
[18:25] <zoraj> sarnold, check pass, user unknown
[18:25] <zoraj> authentification failure;
[18:25] <zoraj> Failed password for invalid user zoraj from 192.168.1.12
[18:25] <zoraj> port 62227 ssh2
[18:33] <zoraj> I did a "svn co svn+ssh://zoraj@192.168.1.2@" and it's ok but now it says No repository found
[18:33] <zoraj> how can I tell it that the repo are all in /home/svn
[18:33] <zoraj> ?
[18:38] <lenios> zoraj, svn co svn+ssh://zoraj@192.168.1.2/home/svn
[18:52] <zoraj> lenios, ok thanks, it works now
[18:59] <zoraj> lenios, how do I do that the user check out in svn+ssh://192.168.1.2/project_name ? instead of svn+ssh://192.168.1.2/home/svn/project_name
[18:59] <sarnold> zoraj: cool; you ought to be able to add a "host 192.168.1.2 user zoraj" stanza to your ssh config; check out the ssh_config manpage for details
[19:01] <zoraj> sarnold,hmm.. I'm afraid I understand what you mean
[19:03] <sarnold> zoraj: the ssh client can probably remember your username for you :)
[19:03] <zoraj> sarnold, ah ok
[19:04] <zoraj> if I use "svnadmin create", I dont have to use "svnserve -d" right ?
[19:05] <lenios> zoraj, what are you trying to do?
[19:06] <zoraj> lenios, I want to create all of my repo here /home/svn/
[19:07] <zoraj> so I do this, svnadmin create my_repo1, svnadmin create my_repo2
[19:07] <zoraj> so people can do a check out like this : svn co svn+ssh://192.168.1.2/my_repo1 and so on
[19:08] <zoraj> basic :) nothing special
[19:08] <zoraj> instead of svn+ssh://192.168.1.2/home/svn/my_repo1 ...
[19:15] <lenios> you'll need to use the -r option of svnserve
[19:16] <lenios> you can force it on the ssh access key (see http://coderazzi.net/howto/security/ssh_svn.html for example), or create a wrapper
[19:19] <zoraj> lenios, thanks for the link, it seems to be really helpful,
[19:36] <med_> zul, happy Canada Day, eh?
[19:37] <med_> And soon, like all Canadians, you can chant "U-S-A, U-S-A" to world cup soccer^W futbol.
[21:16] <blaaa_> Any suggestions for a personal file sync server? I don;t really like owncloud, as it it is a bit too bloated. Seafile? Something else?
[21:17] <sarnold> what featureds are you looking for? rsync?
[21:18] <maswan> or something like git-annex-assistant?
[21:24] <blaaa_> It's supposed to have a nice web interface and it should be possible to share files with specific other people. I had been using webdav for my own purposes
[21:24] <blaaa_> but that felt too technical for some other users
[21:24] <blaaa_> pydio might be interesting as well
[23:29] <michael_> hello could anyone give me some small assistance in putting a 4TB GPT partitioned hard drive into RAID 1
[23:29] <michael_> or if i should do something else to get teo 4tb harddrives into raid 1
[23:29] <michael_> two*
[23:39] <sarnold> michael_: I hope this is useful: https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/serverguide/advanced-installation.html
[23:41] <michael_> thanks that looks like it could be what i need. I was googling for something useful yesterday for about an hour and was coming up with nothing. Thanks for the help :)
[23:41] <sarnold> michael_: I can imagine, there's probably thousands of copies of ancient guides for linux 2.2 and so on :)
[23:42] <michael_> yes that was the issue lol
