| arrrghhh | hey all. so I've got a new disk and I am trying to migrate everything to a new install... I'm not sure I'll be able to do any sort of 'export' on LVM, is there some way I can import these to the new install? | 01:00 |
|---|---|---|
| blueking | I am on ubuntu 14.04 LTS server version I have noticed that /boot has been constant for 2-3 months this means there are no updates of kernel for a long time ? | 01:12 |
| arrrghhh | blueking: you should probably update to 16.04 now that .1 is out | 01:12 |
| blueking | hmm need to make new install or are it safe to do update with none corruption of setup ? | 01:13 |
| arrrghhh | well nothing is guaranteed | 01:14 |
| blueking | experienced issues with nic names changing after some upgrades :/ | 01:14 |
| blueking | eth0/1 -> em1/2 and so on | 01:15 |
| arrrghhh | I don't know why that would cause issues but ok | 01:15 |
| sarnold | blueking: infact a kernel was released very recently https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux | 01:16 |
| blueking | ok | 01:16 |
| blueking | does there exist tool that makes backup of ALL system drive included partitions ? | 01:17 |
| tarpman | dd(1) ? | 01:18 |
| sarnold | dd can do that | 01:18 |
| blueking | dd ? | 01:18 |
| sarnold | yeah; if you've got a fully-installed hard drive in /dev/sda and you want to clone it to a drive in /dev/sdb you could use dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=128K -- I added the bs 'block size' argument to try to get it to use an IO request size that most drives would be better at | 01:22 |
| blueking | if make image copy to another drive ? | 01:24 |
| blueking | if put ssd on windows computer and make image copy of all disc ? | 01:25 |
| sarnold | dd is wonderful, it can do a lot more than just cloning hard drives :) | 01:25 |
| blueking | well problem are that I have only one ubuntu/linux computer :P | 01:27 |
| blueking | if system gets fucked up in an upgrade.. it's not easy to revert changes ? | 01:28 |
| sarnold | correct, there's currently no good way to revert broken upgrades. Hopefully we'll get that some day. | 01:28 |
| blueking | my GF would be mad at me if I would need to spend lot time to bring router(pc) back online... | 01:28 |
| blueking | need to make backup of all ssd drive on windows | 01:29 |

| aybuke | Hi everyone :) I have one question. I have one HP sl250s Gen 8 server. (on 8 disk and hardware RAID(1+0)). I'm tring install Ubuntu 16.04 on this server. But disk detect part pass directly. I guess Ubuntu cant see 2 logical volume. (Raid card b320i) I tried this solution (http://h20564.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c04439186) bu | 07:17 |
| aybuke | t nothing change. This installation is possible? If it is, do you have any suggestions? | 07:17 |
| Smurphy | You install on a specific set of disks? What I did on my Microserver gen8 was to add a SSD disk for the OS, so the Storage disks are used solely for storage. | 07:19 |
| Smurphy | Then I installed, and could fiddle around with the drivers. | 07:19 |
| Smurphy | I don't like the hardware raid. If something breaks and you don't find a spare controller, your data is gone too ... (Happened to me back in time). | 07:19 |
| aybuke | Smurphy: I understand and thank you :) I use SaS disk and I enabled lisance for Raid. | 07:28 |
| aybuke | Besides, I dont like hw raid but they want this :/. | 07:29 |
| Smurphy | well. Then you will need to get the drivers in first somehow. | 07:34 |
| aybuke | I guess, I found them there link: https://launchpad.net/~hp-iss-team/+archive/ubuntu/hp-storage | 07:35 |

| C4L | Hello, I just wanted to ask one thing.. I had a server on which I had installed Ubuntu 14.04 and then used IPMI to setup Windows Server 2012. I want to reinstall everything, so I took the server into rescue mode. Right now I'm connected to the server via FTP using the rescue mode credentials, but I'm unsure where the location to both C:\ and D:\ are via FTP. Can anybody please help? | 09:00 |
| ikonia | C4L: that will depend on your ftp server and your file system layout | 09:26 |
| C4L | Hey ikonia | 09:29 |
| C4L | I did manage to find that C:\ was infact /dev/sda1 | 09:29 |
| C4L | and D:\ was /dev/sda2 | 09:29 |
| ikonia | no, thats a device file | 09:29 |
| ikonia | not a mount point | 09:29 |
| C4L | Oh | 09:29 |
| ikonia | ftp will not be able to use /dev | 09:29 |
| C4L | Yeah because I tried mounting it, I wasn't able to do so | 09:29 |

| peer-hh | I'm getting "No space left on device" errors while trying to upgrade a remote server. The unsuccessful commend tries to use /tmp for which df -hT shows "overflow tmpfs 1.0M 1.0M 0 100% /tmp" How can I make this partition bigger or otherwise solve this problem? | 17:28 |
| peer-hh | So I can't upgrade any more and the situation is stuck. | 17:45 |
| nacc | peer-hh: did you possibly run out of disk at some point? | 17:46 |
| nacc | peer-hh: actual disk, i mean | 17:46 |
| nacc | peer-hh: iirc, the overflow tmpfs is a safety check for when / is full and you can't run anything to solve it | 17:47 |
| peer-hh | it's only the /tmp thing which is at 0. | 17:47 |
| nacc | peer-hh: not right now, but at anytime recently | 17:47 |
| peer-hh | it happens while making an initramfs | 17:47 |
| nacc | peer-hh: what happens? | 17:47 |
| peer-hh | the errors | 17:48 |
| nacc | peer-hh: you're not answering my question | 17:48 |
| peer-hh | many lines like "cp: failed to extend '/tmp/mkinitramfs_QciUOf//sbin/blkid': No space left on device" and the "apt-get upgrade" thus fails. | 17:48 |
| nacc | peer-hh: has, at anytime recently, your system run out of actual disk space, in particular for / | 17:48 |
| peer-hh | no, as far as I can tell | 17:48 |
| nacc | peer-hh: if you are sure, you should be able to umount the overflow tmpfs on /tmp; or reboot and it should be fine | 17:49 |
| peer-hh | there are 12 G available on / | 17:49 |
| peer-hh | ok, I'll give it a try | 17:49 |
| peer-hh | ok, it looks fine now, after a reboot. upgrades as usual. seems solved. thank you! | 17:51 |

| Onepamopa | DexterF, why not try to install it again | 18:50 |
| Onepamopa | doesn't take that long | 18:50 |
| sarnold | DexterF: which 16.04 did you use? was it labeled something like "16.04 LTS" or more like "ubuntu core 16"? | 18:50 |
| DexterF | sarnold: the mini.iso from u/server dload page actually | 18:51 |

| === freyes__ is now known as freyes | ||
| sarnold | DexterF: yeah. the ubuntu core thing may wind up adding users to a /var/*mumblesomething*/extrausers database instead of the usual /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd database | 18:55 |
| sarnold | DexterF: and it could be that there's something busted on the mini.iso :/ | 18:56 |
| sarnold | DexterF: if you've got the time to retry and investgate, that'd be nice :) but if you don't, maybe the 'usual' server iso would be more likely to succeed | 18:56 |
| === Expanse_ is now known as Expanse | ||
| DexterF | sarnold: aimed at an as-slim-as-possible install, thus was recommended here to try mini.iso. | 18:57 |

| === kees_ is now known as kees | ||

| DexterF | rharper: mmmnope, no such dir here | 19:12 |
| DexterF | sarnold: that's what I did, isn't there | 19:12 |
| rharper | DexterF: yeah, it's not created by default; if you want to use extrausers, something has to create it | 19:12 |
| DexterF | ok, then it should be "classic" | 19:12 |
| DexterF | does the server flavor have a root account? | 19:13 |
| sarnold | no | 19:13 |
| sarnold | you can create one of course but it's not available by default | 19:14 |
| rharper | typically you create a user during install which gets sudo privs for access to root | 19:14 |
| sarnold | rharper: aye, he says that's the bit that's broken | 19:14 |
| rharper | on which iso ? | 19:14 |
| sarnold | mini.iso | 19:15 |
| rharper | that sounds a but fundamental, iso tests for yakkety are passing as are xenial; powersj around ? | 19:15 |
| rharper | sarnold: yakkety? or xenial ? | 19:15 |
| sarnold | rharper: yakkety | 19:15 |
| rharper | k | 19:16 |
| * powersj boots his vm he used with the yakkety mini.iso | 19:16 | |
| DexterF | when you need to debug a machine and you have only acer monitors. (good panels, but take ages to detect modes. no POST messages for you.) | 19:17 |
| powersj | sarnold: I do recall creating a user and sure enough have my local powersj user | 19:17 |
| rharper | sarnold: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/yakkety/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso ? | 19:17 |
| sarnold | DexterF: ^^ is that the mini.iso you used? | 19:17 |
| sarnold | powersj: woot. | 19:17 |
| DexterF | no, xenial | 19:17 |
| rharper | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso | 19:18 |
| sarnold | argh! sorry powersj, rharper :( | 19:18 |
| powersj | no worries, let me give it a try | 19:18 |
| rharper | I wish that link had the SHA sums there ... | 19:18 |
| sarnold | that'd be really surprising, xenial's been out for a while | 19:18 |
| sarnold | rharper: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/SHA256SUMS and http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial/main/installer-amd64/current/images/SHA256SUMS.gpg | 19:19 |
| rharper | sarnold: heh, but not in the same path =) | 19:19 |
| sarnold | yeah, but at least they're there :) | 19:20 |
| rharper | y | 19:20 |
| powersj | hmm this is looking odd. Did not ask me for user creds before installing base system | 19:20 |
| rharper | heh | 19:20 |
| rharper | sounds like the bug | 19:20 |
| powersj | oh there it goes, asked me after base system, then setup time | 19:20 |
| DexterF | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD <- first iso listed on that page | 19:21 |
| DexterF | is the one I used | 19:21 |
| powersj | guess that was loading things, not doing base system | 19:21 |
| powersj | md5 of the one I tried matches that - can confirm created a user | 19:22 |
| DexterF | powersj: well. any way to recover? | 19:22 |
| powersj | That part is the standard 4 screens worth to: full name, user name, password x2 | 19:23 |
| powersj | You could boot a livecd or into recovery mode, mount the disk, and see what is in /home for the username and change the password that way | 19:24 |
| powersj | if there isn't anything critical on the system, I would just reinstall at that point | 19:24 |
| rharper | powersj: where is the iso test report page for the mini.iso ? I didn't see it on the jenkins.ubuntu.com/server | 19:27 |
| DexterF | powersj: the funky thing is there is no line for that use in passwd. I know the name, it's not in passwd/shadow, that's what irritates me most to begin with | 19:27 |
| sarnold | DexterF: did anything get logged? | 19:28 |
| rharper | DexterF: so you have a homedir but nothing in passwd/shadow ? | 19:28 |
| DexterF | rharper: hard to tell about home since I cannot log in, it sits on an md raid. | 19:29 |
| DexterF | sarnold: let me check | 19:29 |
| rharper | then how do you know there's no line in passwd/shadow ? | 19:29 |
| powersj | rharper: mini.iso would fall under the netboot ISO I believe on the ISO tracker here: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/ | 19:29 |
| rharper | other than you can't login? | 19:29 |
| rharper | powersj: ah, ok | 19:30 |
| DexterF | rharper: plucked the disk and hooked it to this computer for examination | 19:30 |
| rharper | it's likely that the useradd failed ; seems unlikely to have created home and populated it while failing to update passwd/shadow | 19:30 |
| DexterF | I have a theory what happened | 19:34 |
| DexterF | said /home md is a raid5, and I had a flaky sata cable on one drive. wait. bad theory. I was up to: during setup one disk fails, /home becomes inaccessible, user creation fails silently. | 19:35 |
| DexterF | but then again one failed disk on raid5 is exactly what md should cover | 19:36 |
| DexterF | unless /home became unresponsive due to disk sync errors | 19:36 |
| Onepamopa | What are the chances 2 " BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request" messages to appear on the monitor but not @ syslog (after reboot)? | 19:36 |
| Onepamopa | I scrolled them up, made a photo then rebooted | 19:37 |
| sarnold | Onepamopa: when things go wrong in the kernel it's quite possible that too much is broken to actually write logs to disk; I'd hope BUGs would still get written, but when paging requests can't be handled, there's something very wrong. | 19:38 |
| Onepamopa | sarnold, this happened on both 16.10 and 16.04.1 | 19:38 |
| Onepamopa | Im surface-checking the disk for errors now... | 19:38 |
| Onepamopa | after that it's time to check the memory too .... | 19:39 |
| Onepamopa | tho, the pc was running freebsd 10 without problems | 19:42 |
