I have installed RHEL5U5 but I've also tested RHEL5U4 and the problem is: Once configured the multipath, I restart the server,and with the command-ll mutipath I can see the LUN presented correctly:
[Code].....
I need to set up 1 disk, the disk is presented to the server on both fibre paths from the SAN. This is the current setup seen:
[Code]..
I have and RHEL5.4 conecceted to an SAN HSV200. When I present a LUN to it, In system-confg-lvm gui appears a device like /dev/mapth/mapth0 (that�s the correct device to multipath) and other like /dev/sda or /dev/dm-N, as uninitialized entities. How could I configure to not display this device (/dev/sda) and prevent human errors?
This is the things I need:
1- I want (if it is posible...) to disappear the part where it says "uninitialized entities"
2- Is It necesary mantain the partitioning done to default (like /dev/mapper/mpath0p1) with device-mapper-multipath (kpartx command)? or Can I delete it without future problems?
This is the actual configuration that I have:
1- /etc/lvm/lvm.conf
Code:
preferred_names = [ "^/dev/mpath/", "^/dev/mapper/mpath", "^/dev/[hs]d" ]
filter = [ "a/dev/mapper/mpath.*/","a/dev/cciss/.*/","r/.*/" ]
2- /etc/multipath.conf
Code:
#blacklist {
# devnode "*"
#}

our oracle(oracle 10G) server got a serious problem, the OS is SLES 9 SP4, two HBA adapters(QLogic 2340) with NetApp FC Storage(FAS3140), we have installed multipath-tools on this server and ensure that physical connection and swith configuration are correct, but we only can see a path

I upgraded a DL580 G4 server from Red Hat 4.4 to 5.2 (2.6.18-92.el5 #1 SMP Tue Apr 29 13:16:15 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux) and now when I run the multipath - l command I only see one path. There are 4 LUNs being presented on each fibre channel, so I should see sda - sdh in /dev, but I only see sda - sdd.

There is a server with two HBA QLA2460, connected via SAN to the SE9980 disk array. RHEL 5.4 (x86_64) is running on the server. In the SAN two zones are set up: HBA1-port1 9980; HBA2 - port2 SE9980. As a result, the server can see:

Question: Why OS sees eight ways instead of two? Why do extra ways have such strange LUN (16384, 32768, etc.)?
after some yum update on my CentOS 5.6 server I noticed this error when the server is booting:
"dm multipath kernel driver not loaded"
After mapping iscsi storage from my netapp and scanning for new devices I run multipath -v2 to create the multipath device handle under /dev/mapping/. This normally takes about 2 seconds or less on every other linux distribution I use. On Stretch it takes a little over 3 minutes. I have tried several different versions of multipath.conf but the result is always the same.
My most recent multipath.conf file is available here : [URL] ....
and the output of multipath -v4 is available here : [URL] ....
I have a linux machine, attached to a fibre channel SAN.
We're in the testing phases and we're attempting to get all of the bugs worked out before this goes live.
If i have my host streaming data to the storage device on the san (or from the device on the san) and simulate a path failure (by shutting down one of the host's ports on the FC switch), multipath does not pick up on another path until about 45 seconds have passed.
I can verify this by watching the statistic graph (which updates once per second) on the storage system.
I see iops running along rather nicely, and then they drop to 0 for 45 seconds, then pick right up to normal again.
This is a RehHat EL 5.5 system, with qlogic HBA's.
Am i being too picky? I'd expect multipath to recover in under 30 seconds, so as to not alarm host applications running on the linux host... 45 seconds seems like a long time to wait for a disk operation to complete.
Any tips on tuning Multipath, or the qlogic card? As it is, i've got the following options in my modprobe.conf.
alias scsi_hostadapter2 qla2xxx
Code:
My multipath.conf looks like:
Code:
i want to remove a path, but is in use.. How can i kill the zombie processes?

I guess i was wrong deleting first the disks that formed the path, but now how could i kill those zombie processes without a reboot?

I am trying to setup multipath with failover policy on openSuSE 11. I have two qla2xxx HBA's installed and they appear to be working. Here is the output of "multipath -l" command
[Code]....
While testing, I pulled one of the two connection to SAN, and the connection failed over to second HBA connection to SAN. When I plug the cable back in, it does not fall back to original connection... It stays in failed state. Also, I noticed that failed disk (sdd disk) comes back as (sdg disk), which is probably why connection does not fall back to original HBA. But, when I run "/sbin/service multipathd restart" sdg disk shows as as enabled in multipath -l...
i have a HP MSA 2312fc SAN with 2 LUNs configured. The first LUN (LUN ID 1) is correctly connected to the system, but when i connect the second LUN (LUN ID 30), i find in the syslog this message: multipathd: 8:64: size 6835937472, expected 5267578112. Discard
Here is the multipath.conf
[Code]....
So I correctly see the two luns, but multipath doesn't create the relative devices. Under /dev/mapper I see: control mpath0 mpath0-part1 mpath0-part1 is the first lun, the one I mounted in a directory under filesystem. I can't find the device for the second lun
How can I set up multipath to two devices properly? I'm sure that I need to do something more then just: /etc/init.d/multipathd start

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Brother MFC-7440N which has Linux drivers, but I can't get useful scans yet. It prints fine, but the only scanning software I've found so far, XSane and a utility just called "Scanner Utility" are both useless.
XSane is no good because it crashes every time I try to scan something.
Scanner Utility has a few problems. Unless I set the paper size to "Legal," it keeps cutting off the bottom few inches of my (US letter-size) document. It's the same, regardless of whether I scan from the auto document feeder, or with the original on the glass. Also the orientation is screwed up. When I select "Portrait," the scan comes out rotated 90 degrees, exactly the opposite of what I'd expect.
I also don't like that there's no way to go back and change the scan settings. If I want to scan another document or at a different resolution, I have to quit Scan Utility and run it again.
Neither utility will scan to a .pdf. XSane gives the option, but like I said, it crashes every time I try to scan something.
Is there a scanning program available for Ubuntu that actually works, & will scan to a .pdf? Brother doesn't supply any scanning software for Linux, just drivers, so I have to find some 3rd-party utility.
Is there an easy scanning program for kubuntu and where do I go to get it? My mom is running it and needs to scan things. She has the all-in-one mentioned in the thread title.

Recently I've been going over a few resources (like Guide to the Secure Configuration of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5) some forum members have provided and I've been using other resources I use for work (like the UNIX STIG requirements). I would like to improve my skill-set on hardening a linux server (for work and personal interest). Is there a specific linux distro I can install that is purposely corrupted/vulnerable where the sole goal is to secure it, and then have the means to scan it to make sure all vulnerabilities are patched and secured?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhy doesn't my laptop's built-in fingerprint scanner work in GNOME? It's fairly common (manufactured by UPEK) and I've tried fprintd and thinkfinger to no avail. The latter seems to be built for USB-attached devices and fails to find any device and the former installs and runs fine, but fails to recognize any fingerprints.
Using either fprintd-enroll or the GNOME "About Me" panel, fprintd will gladly register my fingerprint, but no amount of swiping will get it to actually recognize it afterwards. I try re-installing it every new update, but same results, what's going on?
I would like to set up a email virus scanner. I use Spamssassin and BogoFilter (Spamssassin by default).
I have now installed Clam-AV (KlamAV) for the "normal" files on my system. and see that there is a tab in there for email scanning. When i pick Evolution as my email client it tells me to set up a filter and pipe if into Klammail. I can not find Klammail anywhere. I have even looked for it in the Documentation and all i could see is that i can not run this manually.
I have found links to say that if i am using Spamssassin that this will use CLamAV be default... Im not sure if this is the case or not. of if there is another AV system i should be using to do email virus scanning.
