View 2 Replies View RelatedServer :: Reduce RAID5 Partition Sizes / Reduce The Size Of Md1 And Grow Md0?
Feb 14, 2010I have a rack of four 1TB drives all partitioned identically with three primary partitions. On each drive
- the first partition is only 64MB;
- the second is a large 900GB partition and
- the last holds all the remaining space
mdadm has been used to set up
/dev/md0 - RAID1, comprised of /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1
/dev/md1 - RAID5, comprised of /dev/sda2, /dev/sdb2, /dev/sdc2, /dev/sdd2
/dev/md2 - RAID5, comprised of /dev/sda3, /dev/sdb3, /dev/sdc3, /dev/sdd3
OK, so it was a silly mistake to make - but I am now need to increase the size of /dev/md0. My thinking is to reduce the size of md1 so that I can grow md0.
On md1 I have two logical volumes. I've successfully reduced the size of the volume so that I can reduce the size of md1. Now I'm at the nervous stage; I can find little written on the topic of shrinking RAID5 arrays - and even if I do this I'm unsure if I can move partitions around to regain the space I so desire.

Fedora :: How To Reduce Picture File Size
Mar 11, 2010I'm all new to linux. I've got Fedora core 12 - I'm ex windows user. I have these 3 websites to maintain: These are in finnish language. So called pikalaina sites:

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Reduce Avi Video File Size?
Jun 7, 2010I have rendered out less than two minutes of High Definition animation to Avi-Jpeg Format in Blender. Now, I have this 2 GB file. Going at this rate, it's going to take a whole DVD set to play a 15 min movie.
Surely, this file doesn't need 2 GB just for 1:45 min/sec, right? Even at high def? How do I reduce this file size down to like a manageable number, say, 20 miB?
General :: LV Reduced In VG Now / Reduce The FS And Partiton Size Of The PV?
Oct 18, 2010I have a HDD that has 2 partitions. the 2nd partition is the VG and I want to reduce its size. I have reduced the Largest LV in the VG and now have free space in the VG. But, I am clueless on how to proceed to reduce the partiton size so that I can use it for another need.
When done, I expect to have 3 parttions total on the HDD. But first, I could some help in understanding the steps necessary for me to take, to move the free space out of the partition that has the Volume Group. Then, i can use fdisk on that 3rd partition for my needs.
I already know how to expand a Volume group by adding PVs, but, I do NOT know and cannot find how to reduce it to recover the free space in the VG to be used in a new partiton. (Better explained..."I want to reduce the physical partition size that the VG represents.)
General :: Reduce /var Filesystem Size - Impact?
May 10, 2010I need to create a temporary Filesystem and the only way to do it is to reduce /var and create a new filesystem 3GB size
Code:
df -h
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-var
9.7G 1.5G 7.8G 16% /var
my question is according to google search I need to umount the filesystem point in order to reduce its size.... so it means I will require that nobody uses the system? since /var logs a lot information?
I also have the option to reduce /root but I think is more complicated.
so what are the precautions in order to reduce /var/?
General :: LVM2 On F10 - Reduce LVM Size And Remove 2 HDDs?
Oct 15, 2009I have the following HDDs in an LVM2 configuration on an F10 box running Mythtv :-
# pvscan
PV /dev/sda2 VG VolGroup00 lvm2 [297.88 GB / 0 free]
PV /dev/sdd1 VG VolGroup00 lvm2 [931.50 GB / 0 free]
PV /dev/sdb1 VG VolGroup00 lvm2 [298.06 GB / 0 free]
PV /dev/sdc1 VG VolGroup00 lvm2 [931.50 GB / 0 free]
Total: 4 [2.40 TB] / in use: 4 [2.40 TB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ]
The system never uses more than about 250GB of HDD at any one time, so I would like to remove /dev/sdd1 and /dev/sdc1 from the LV and then from the machine and leave /dev/sda and /dev/sdb alone.
Does anyone know that if I use the command "system-config-lvm" to reduce the total LVM size to say 580GB, whether all data is preserved (I don't have any way at this stage to backup up 250GB of data, unless I buy more HDDs and that is the whole point of this exercise anyway - remove the two terrabyte drives to be used as backup disks).
Once I am happy that the data is safe, I will use "pvmove" and "vgreduce" to remove both terrabyte drives.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Reduce Desktop Window Size Within Screen?
Aug 23, 2010Can the size of the Ubuntu desktop window be reduced so that it displays on a monitor or via a data projector with a surrounding black border? If so, how? The tragicomic chain of events which leads to the question is as follows. Community group, short of cash, want to equip lecture room. Pull-down screen is set up permanently on one wall. Contractor sets up old data projector via ceiling mount. Data projector is just too far away from wall, such that image cannot be reduced sufficiently by the data projector to fit on the screen.
Annoyingly the image, as displayed, is only slightly too large - just enough to lose the top and bottom panels, Applications menu, File Menu on full-size windows, Indicator applet, Trash, and restore desktop button. The data projector is hooked up via VGA cable to a recycled PC running Ubuntu 10.04 with proprietary NVidia driver (version 173) for GeForce 8400 GS. I'll give anything to be able to do this on the PC, rather than having to move the projector!

Jan 21, 2009I have been asked to investigate some of our servers that run tripwire 2.3.0 on Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS (Pensacola)
We have the reports emailed to us using cron and twprint -m r -r report -t 4, it has been growing steadily and today it was 9mb It seems the database records go back to before 2004 and are being compared against today's files.
I really need to be informed what needs to be done to tripwire to keep it serviced through cron. I have tried to google this but could not find any information that seemed to answer my questions.
Looking at the following guide url step 6 talks about "Updating the Database after an Integrity Check" using
Code:
# tripwire --update --twrfile /var/lib/tripwire/report/<name>.twr Should I be using this command or should I be re-creating the db every month or so and using the #tripwire -init?

Jun 13, 2011I was just testing specifying limit on file size to a user and have added the following to /etc/security/limits.conf bob soft fsize 100 This basically should have said not to allow bob to create anyfile greater than 100Kb in size.
But the interesting thing is, if bob already has any file which is greater than 100Kb in size, it even doesn't allow to log him into the system both from console and SSH. Also nothing is logged in logs.. How do I configure it so that, bob can login to the system even though he has any file greater than 100Kb (but doesn't allow him to create file which are greater than 100Kb) ??
