OpenSUSE :: Size Of Share Stays The Same After Reinstall OS And Volume Extension?
Mar 30, 2010
I did hit a issue with volume extension after reinstalling the OS. SLES 11.2-2.6.31.5-0.1
Before the reinstall I had a single fiber volume with 1 logical drive XFS. I did extend the volume with a second fiber storage and the logical drive extension without any issues. After the reinstall OS everything still worked fine. At one point I did have to extend my volume again and also the logical drive in it. The extension went fine, also the logical drive got bigger on the server side.
But the issue is that the share size for the users stayed the same. It has something to do with the xfs files on the server that are getting installed when creating an xfs file system. I can simulate this issue.
is lvresize with --resizefs options re-size the Logical Volume and then re-size the file system? i mean we don't need to use resize2fs?I looked at man pages but it doesn't explain this option.
On a small network i have 3 WinXP computers and i've just installed a two new ones with Win7 pre-installed. As server i'm running OpenSuSE 10.3 and Samba with only one share. As i mount it to WinXP computers all get same volume serial number:
Code:
V:>dir Volume in drive V is AppDrive Volume Serial Number is 8CD5-975C
...and all Win7 computers get a diffrent one:
Code:
V:>dir Volume in drive V is AppDrive Volume Serial Number is A0D3-975C
We use application witch somehow only works when one/same volume serial number on a mounted drive is used.
have a gzip file ABC_000023232.gzipBCD_023232032.gzipI want to split these files into smaller files but keep the extension same because I am using this as a variable in a script
I had to reinstall 10.04 today and after installation I have found the volume level to be very low. I have to move the slider to max to get a normal listening level. It was not like this previously before reinstalling.
I recently installed opensuse 11.2 on my laptop which also had windows vista and windows 7, i created a new partition and the installation went smoothly, after i went to boot back into windows 7 i got a blue screen of death, strangely vista boots perfectly.I could just reinstall windows 7 but its a pain to reinstall all my programs and such
Reproducible with Firefox 3.6.6 (installed from Ubuntu 10.04 repository), on Dell D620, Ubuntu 10.04 Steps to reproduce:
1) start Firefox from command line "firefox -P"
2) create new Firefox profile on NTFS volume (mounted with NTFS-3g)
3) add NoScript extension (through extension manager Get Add-ons), restart Firefox as suggested
4) extension is not added to Firefox In case at step 2) profile is created on Linux volume, at 4) extension is added to firefox.I'm not 100% sure, but I think this bug is related to Firefox 3.6 update (no problems with Firefox 3.5). I did not make proper investigation, but I have feeling same problem applies to Thunderbird 3.1.This issue does not allow to share Firefox/Thunderbird profile on dual boot machine (Ubuntu/WindowsXP).
I am installing Ubuntu server 10.10 onto a machine with a 1 tb Hard drive. I have had a host of other problems installing but that is for another thread. My question here is that it takes so long to format such a big drive, and I have heard and read that LVM starts with a small partition and expands it as more room is needed. So the installer crashed and started over so this time I decided to choose 'Guided - Use entire disk and set up LVM' instead of just 'Guided - Use Entire Disk'. So it is asking me to set the size of the LVM Volume. Am I setting the size of the initial volume? or am I setting the max size the volume can expand to?
I have centos 5 virtual server running on ESXi (vsphere 4.1).i have to increase disk space. I increased the size of the virtual machine in Vcenter.But i allready have 4 primary partitions. when i run fdisk /dev/sda, i get this :
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux /dev/sda2 14 3916 31350847+ 8e Linux LVM /dev/sda3 3917 6527 20972857+ 83 Linux /dev/sda4 6528 13054 52428127+ 83 Linux
My MP3 Player (Zen:Vision:M) has roughly 60 GB of space and yet Ubuntu insists only 3.6 GB is available. I know this is not true because in Windows the correct amount of room is displayed and can be filled up. Because my music collection is stored in my Linux partition I need to solve this issue if I'm going to actually use my MP3 Player. What is also interesting is the fact that the device doesn't show up in Gparted, System Monitor or fdisk.
When I attempt to look at the Zen's contents through Nautilus I get this message:
Error initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error
And when I update through Banshee every song gives an error of:
How big should an LVM volume be to hold a single 32GB file? I thought 33GB would be enough, but apparently not. A volume has run out of space. There are 2 identical volumes holding identical sized files (kvm virtual hard drives in raw format). One (ic030) is showing zero free space and one is showing 97% full. I guess the discrepancy is caused by journalling, directory structure information etc. Possibly also sparseness. How do I calculate the worst-case maximum required LVM volume size? i.e. assuming no sprseness and maximum journal size etc. Here's some info from the file system. (I have removed other volumes form the listings.) The volumes are formatted with ext3.
extend the size of a LVM2 volume group over the remaining free space available on a physical volume. My linux box is a Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 64bit, the 60GB hard disk has 2 win partition for about 19GB, a 1.5GB ext3 boot partition and finally a 36GB LVM partition (/dev/sda4) on which I created a volume group (volgrp) smaller 10GB than the 36GB physical volume (/dev/sda4). What I want now is to extend the size of volume group up to the end of physical volume. I tried to use the "vgextend volgrp /dev/sda4" but system answers me with following output:
me@pc:~> sudo vgextend volgrp /dev/sda4 Physical volume '/dev/sda4' is already in volume group 'volgrp' Unable to add physical volume '/dev/sda4' to volume group 'volgrp'.
Does anyone have any good articles on mounting a Ubuntu volume as an iSCSI share on a windows box? Originally I was just going to use a SAMBA share but it turns out samba has issues with my lan security. So I thought since all I really want to do is create the share on my backup server that an iSCSI device would do. Been using the following article with limited success... [URL]
Have just installed Lexmark s605 printer on wireless network, printer works ok but when i print a document even though it is showing the correct size on 'print preview', the printed output is on the page is tiny and and 90deg rotated, I've tried various drivers from the Lexmark website, and also messing about in printer settings but nothing seems to make any difference.
Hi! I'm an opensuse noob, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to associate .avi files with VLC. In Yast, I've tried to use the custom command setting to start VLC instead of Totem, but a double click on any avi file starts BANSHEE instead of Totem OR VLC. No clue, here. I can't find where to specifically associate a file extension with an application, as opposed to the very high-level settings in Yast.
I trying to read a file with an .odc extension.Using openOffice Calc, However there is a of garbage and irreadable characters, I found out it is a Microsoft office data connection file. Is there a way around it?
I can install the extension MozillaThunderbird Lightning for opensuse 11.3 and Thunderbird v3.1.1. I find on the web for 1-click install is for openSUSE 11.2.
I have no hair any longer on the sides of my head... after trying to deal with this problem. I have installed apache2 on a SuSE 11.3 box, with php5, php-pear, php-gd, etc, and I cannot get php-soap to get recognized. Do I need to see the soap.[URL]..When I run an installation wizard for the web app I am planning to host, and it says that there is no soap installed. When I place soap php-soap php5-soap in the APACHE_MODULES of /etc/sysconfig/apache2 (just to make sure at least one is the right name) and restart apache2 I get error messages that say, soap (or php-soap, or php5-soap) is not installed, so its being ignored. When I run my phpinfo.php script, I see PHP is working, and soap is one of the successful modules (!?).
So, why can't apache see soap? I can find my soap.so within /usr/lib/php5/extensions/soap.so (how would I successfully load that into Apache, when it starts? I have been using yum, so I went to yast, and installed php-soap again. restarted apache, and still no success.
When I try to get to the configuration of my monitor by using KDE Settings -> hardware -> monitor, I receive the msg: "Your X server is running the RandR extension at version 1.2 or greater which doesn't have any configuration yet." and it refuses to go further. What does this mean and where should I configure it? When I use Yast, Sax2 starts normally.

i just downloaded and installed opensuse 11.3 64 bit kde on my laptop.
all my hardware seems to be working fine.
i installed the drivers for my nvidia video card, and 3d is working along with kde's desktop effects.
i installed all my favourite firefox extensions including video downloadhelper downloadhelper - media download firefox extension an extension that can download videos from videos and other video sites.
all of my installed firefox extensions seem to be working except video downloadhelper.
when i try to download videos with it nothing happens.
previously i had opensuse 11.2 gnome 64 bit installed on my laptop, and the video downloadhelper extension worked fine.
i think this problem might have something to do with the way opensuse integrates firefox with kde.
I had an extension i started making and had loaded in Chromium. Well i forgot to unload it and deleted the files for it. Well now Chromium crashes on startup saying it can't find the manifest file for it. How can i remove the entry for that in the extension cookies file?
I didn't delete my old extension and recently mounted it so I could retrieve the data. I was wondering if there was any way I could make it the extension to my current native without deleting any of the data? Or if attaching it as an extension was at all possible at this point.
