CentOS 5 Server :: When To Re-boot Server Is Required
Apr 22, 2011
When do you know when to re-boot your server? I have Centos 5.6 As my remote web server running Direct Admin. I have also Centos 5.6 as a local back up server. With a KDE user interface so i can learn the graphical and command line. How ever when i query Yum for updates locally, i can see a nice extra icon next to the updates in KDE saying will require a reboot. But on my remote web server, how would i know if a Reboot would be required?

Right now i have a HP DL 180 Server with 130 Gb Hard Disk & 8 Gb ram after Raiding0+1. i want to configure Domain Controller Server for my office for 200 to 300 Users. what should the partition size must be mentioned in my 130 Gb Hard Disk, is that going to be Sufficient for ME ?
i am bit confused about /Usr /Var /Boot partitions, as i need to manage perfectly in 130 GB
if i go with 4 Gb swap and remaining for " / " is that will be fine ? should i need to specify partition sizes separately for / tmp /var / usr ..

I am in the process of creating a kickstart configuration file for some RedHat 5.5 and Centos 5.5 servers (Production and test respectively).I have googled about a bit but I cannot find a good list of the bare minimum packages required for a command-line system.If anyone knows how I can trim this list down anymore it would be much appreciated. The aim of this kickstart.cfg is to get the system booted to a bare minimum required to install Chef (Server management software). Chef will then setup Apache, Ruby on rails environment etc.
All this server will need to do is, from a static IP, Host a Ruby on rails app, send emails, send data to a server on the web, accept ssh and occasionally and connect to a SMB/CIFS share This list was taken from the anaconda-ks.cfg file after a RedHat install of what I thought was a pretty minimal system onto a VM but I noticed that cups, the avahi daemonsand gam_server are installed and running which I do not believe are needed for a pure web server.I know that these types of questions are hard to answer without a complete knowledge of the operating environment and what "minimum" is in this case ("@core only? but I wanted yum damnit!")
@admin-tools
@base
@core

I have a unique setup on my hands..-local (LAN) dev system built on a via epia m6000 (uses the older via eden-samuel cpu). Latest kernels will not boot due to cpu issue.I'm running CentOS v3.9 for kernel compatibility and have managed to get my basic LAMP setup accomplished via yum but I'd like to run the curnet versions of everything while keeping the older kernel if possible.I'm considering setting up my yum repos to include v4 or v5 and use the yum --exclude kernel option.

I have many documents that indicate many different min requirements for drive memory. Will someone give me an idea for the following...Ubuntu 10.10 server running SSH and Samba what would be the memory requirements, recommended as opposed to min, for partitions as follows:
/ -- root
/home -- as a separate partition
/boot -- as a separate partition (do I really need a separate boot)
swap my RAM is 768mg so 1 gig should be good

I have a problem with vsftpd (latest version available, 2.1.0pre3) SSL. I've configured it to a nonstandard port, 65440, disabled connect_from_port_20 and run it as a normal user, from home directory. I can't use the SSL feature, every time I connect, it only reaches the login process. After logging in, I get the following error (when data transfer would start for LIST command):
522 SSL connection failed; session reuse required
My vsftpd.conf looks like this
Code:
local_enable=NO
write_enable=YES

email_password_file=/home/stringz/vsftpd/logins
# local_umask=022

The client side is a Total Commander 7.02, there hasn't been any problem with its SSL yet and this only occurs when trying to connect to my vsftpd.

Not sure on what is going on here. The server is RAID1 through hardware RAID. It was running an unusual high load so I rebooted it. Now it won't boot up. I am getting these errors after the CentOS boot screen:sda: Current [descriptor]: sense key: Medium ErrorAdd.Sense: Address mark not found for data field
end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 3040555357
device-mapper: raid1: A read failure occurred on a mirror device.
device-mapper: raid1: All sides of mirror have failed.

After i boot I have to run
Then my mail seems to work..
GOAL - to get this to work on boot

I've been having issues with my ubuntu server (10.04 LTS) lately. Every once in a while, anywhere from 3 days to a month or more, the server will just disappear from the network. All manner of trying to reach it from the outside fails, even from the LAN. Since it's headless, this is kind of problematic. After a hard power down or reboot, the server will always come back online, but this is very annoying for a remotely administered server.
What should I look for when trying to determine why the server keeps going offline? I can't tell if there are any other issues like a hard lockup or anything, just that it is not on the network anymore when this happens.

I have a government website hosted in third party hosting. but now they want to setup their own Ubuntu server. Now my Question is -
1. What hardware do I need? like -
A) SERVER
B) KVM Switch etc etc.. really i don't know how many hardware need to setup a server. Please provide me a list.
2. Does the standard Ubuntu Server installation DVD contains all the required software for Linux web hosting ?
The hardware part is very important. What's more hardware need to set up a server.

I'm experiencing some rather severe problems after updating my Centos 5.4 system (Virtual Xen guest). What happens is that when the system boots it complains about missing .so files which prevents about 50% of the services installed from running.
I'm suspecting that it has something to do with selinux for two reasons: 1. The first services to go down complains about the security context of some files, and 2. selinux was kinda the reason I decided to update in the first place as it was disabled when it shouldn't be (enabled in system-config-securitylevel, disabled when running sestatus).
The whole boot-sequence ends with alot of "INIT: Id 'X' respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes"-messages (including all runlevels) before it goes stale, and I can do nothing.
The server in question had undergone very little tinkering from my part, pretty much none at all, the only services installed after installation was apache, mysql and webmin.
Details:
CentOS 5.4 is installed on both the host and guest.
The guest runs on an lvm-partition.
I have two other vm's(also CentOS) running just fine, altough I'm a bit weary of updating them .
Attached are some screenshots of the boot-process.
I hope some one here can share some insight on this problem. It's making me pretty nervous seeing that our whole network is run by CentOS-installations (not that I'm certain that CentOS is the culprit).
