View 9 Replies View RelatedI had used DELL 1950 with 300 GB raid disk. Now, I purchased Dell 2950 with 450 GB (6 disk - 3 pairs of raid). I wanted to pull out old 300 GB from 1950 and put it in 2950 (temporarily) to copy all contents to the new system. How do I know which HDDs I need to pull out from 2950 so that I can replace them with 300 GB HDD to mount. I do not know how raid setup (I know unix alone - not raid commands). Is this possible? How to do it?

I installed the latest CentOS 5.5 in my PC. I added some public domain projects on it. Now how can I make another boot-able CentOS iso file with all the new projects I just added? In the other words, I try to create a boot-able CD with the CentOS and all the projects on it.
View 1 Replies View Relatedhow easy it would be to read the contents of a physical disk that was part of a larger logical volume. The disk contains a "Linux LVM" partition that spans its entire size. My problem is that one of my disks died, and I have to send it back for a warranty replacement. However, the disk is dead, and I can't zero it out. I'm just trying to assess how difficult it would be (or at least how likely it would be) for a tech that's checking out the disk to get at the data.

There is a disk 500 gb, it is broken on /boot and on /root and on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2. Whether prompt it is possible to redistribute a disk without loss of data namely it is necessary to make/boot and two equivalent on disk volume.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install CentOS 5.2, and the installation ran out of disk space after running for about 2 hours.I checked the FAQ, and it said 1.2 GB. The disk is 3 GB. The default install was selected, and I think that it checks for sufficient available disk space before installing. Still, it ran for quite a while before announcing that it was out of disk space.The Installation Guide is not very helpful, since there is a blank page where the disk space requirement is supposed to be. I just picked the default installation. A search of the forums on "not enough disk space" did not return much.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am having new hardware and IDE driver for that hardware as drive disk image (it8213_centos53.img). CentOS 5.3 installation is working fine with drive disk image at USB and CentOS 5.3 at DVD. Our application uses CentOS 5.3 and we build a custom kick-start ISO for installations. Using that ISO client is going to install on all hardware boxes.
Note while installing :
a) No network connection is avalible.
b) No USB isavalible.
c) No floppy is avalible.
d) Only single CD-ROM is avalible.
So, is it possible to build single custom kick-start CentOS 5.3 ISO which contains dirve disk image and entire installation will be done using that image. If so please let me know the steps to build it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have seen that is possible to boot from a USB stick and use a USB memory as hard drive.I have a server enable to hold 6 sata drives 3.5", But I want to use the 6 drives and make a Raid-5 setup for backups 5 -1 spare. /boot cannot be on a raid-5 level 0 or 1. But I want to have redundancy for my OS, them I can install Centos on a Raid-1 using 2 disk, which let me only 4 for the raid 5. I will run a backup I want to have a lot of space.
Using 4 disk for raid-5 2 TB I will have 6TB no spare, no spare is not a good option at least I will prefer 1 spare.Well, I was thinking, the server MoBo have USB support, if I open the box I can see the small entrances, If Centos let me installed on a USB memory drive, can I trust a USB memory stick?t night with bacula.
There was a necessity of creation cluster file system on a basis gfs.Prompt how better to mark a disk 500 gb. Means how many better to allocate /root, LVM and so on.Or throw the reference on sensible manual.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create several Centos virtual machines to run Cpanel servers on each. Centos 5 looks good due to bundled Xen. Not sure whether to go for 64 bit version of Centos 5 and run some of the Apps as 32 bit and a few as 64. The h/w is a Dell poweredge R710 with dual 2.26 GHz quad core Xeon procs, 5.86 GT/s 24GB ram memory speed 1067 MHz. Raid with perc 6/i.
I burned the Centos 5 iso onto cd-rw but my lap top and the new dell won't boot from it. I viewed the readme file which seems to suggest burning "boot.iso" on its own but that doesn't work either. A boot menu on the Dell has an option to "Deploy" an O/S. Do I need that or can't I simply boot from cd-rw? I used Nero to burn the cds. I asked Nero if any special box needs to be ticked to write a bootable image and they said no.

We have a centos 5 instance running as a virtual machine on vsphere 4.0, which has a number of virtual disks presented to it. We need to remove these virtual disks from the system without rebooting it, but have had no luck searching VMware's KB or the internet for solutions to the issue. It seems we can strip the disk of all it's partition information, then remove it from the system in VMware, but /var/log/messages still reports scsi errors when running fdisk against the said disk. There is also a folder with the deleted disk's name (e.g. /sys/block/sdp), after the disk has been removed and the host bus has been rescanned. Is it even possible to completely remove disks from linux without a reboot?

When I get to this screen ( shown below) the disc configuration shows two discs "SDA2" and "69774MB". What I am wondering is this confuration ok. I assume the SDA2 is my secondary disk? Why is it using the secondardy disc and not the primary SDA1?

I don't want to rebuild it from scratch if the root drive goes belly up, but I do NOT have a hardware raid controller.

Since updating to C5.7 (64bit) when I go to burn an ISO it is not recognizing the blank disk and I have to use the force option(k3b). In 5.6 it worked fine. This is the same box of disks(and everything else) I was using before the update. The disks seem to burn fine (verify ok). It is just a PITA to have to hit the force button every time.
