Several months ago my PowerEdge 2850 SLES 9 server response time gradually slows after reboot. Daily the server seems to get slower and gets to the point where I have to reboot to clear the problem. To address this I added addtional 2G of memory, but issue is now worse. I have to reboot daily.
View 1 RepliesI am installing SLES on a new server with raid 05, after I went with the setup it copies all the files until It gets to install grub. It gets me an error message installing grub and it wont let me move forward.

I have installed SLES 10 SP2 but my network card is undetected. Model: Intel(R) 82567V-2 Gigabit Network I have the drivers for linux on my installation cd as:
- e1000-8.0.2.1.tar.gz
- e1000e-0.3.3.3.tar.gz
- igb-1.2.24.tar.gz
How do i install these drivers on linux?
I am running SLES10 SP2 under z/vm in z9 mainframe box. But I believe this is a linux problem instead of hardware architecture or visualization (Because previously it worked).
I was trying to create a new user account for ftp purpose. However I encountered the following error from YAST code...
I am new to linux . i am trying to install SUSE linux 10 SLES. all the steps are clearly installed but. the final step- Hardware configuration step failed.in this final stage system takes more time and restarts.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to convert our backup web server, Dell PowerEdge 2850, from Windows 2003 to Ubuntu.The box had been hosting a couple of web sites for the past 4 years. It was light stuff, PHP/Joomla on Apache 2 and DotNetNuke on IIS. There was also Apache Tomcat on there. Recently, we also added Subversion and TeamCity for version control plus continuous integration. All of the .NET stuff has been moved over to another server that we acquired. Right now I am trying to get Sun Glassfish 3 and Alfresco WCM to run on Windows on the old server, but it is a major pain in the butt. I could use OpenSolaris, except there are a couple things that are easier in Ubuntu. The box must also be able to run FreeNX properly so that my boss, who is a GUI guy, will be able to log in to a desktop. That leaves Ubuntu, since I am somewhat familiar with it.
I was able to get FreeNX, Glassfish and Alfresco (up to a point) to run using a Turnkey Linux image. The problem is the server is proving to be difficult. I tried starting with the desktop 9.1 CD that I downloaded; however, there is massive graphics corruption on the desktop. It'll boot fine to the Gnome desktop, but the system will become really slow and the windows disappear, leaving just a border. Switching to another VT shows blurry, shaky text. I suspect there is an issue with the graphics driver, but I can't even type in any commands to find out what is going on.
I also downloaded 9.04 Server edition and it installed fine with no shaky text. How hard would it be to build on top of that for XWindows and FreeNX to work? Why is the text shaking in the first place?
I have a disturbing problem with my monitor which goes to sleep (or ??) after few minutes if my comp is not used and most of the time I have to restart my comp.I disabled everything in Powersave , but nothing. I did have that problem in previous versions of SUSE, but somehow, I solved that. I cant remember what I did then.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got my new server today (a Dell Poweredge 2850), and I'm trying to install the latest version of Ubuntu on it, however it fails to detect my hard drives. They are in a raid array (raid 1 I believe). I've never worked with a raid array before, and I'm wondering, is there anything special I have to do to install Ubuntu on one?

Not one issue at all. 1374 pkgs install without issue. Take the same disc put it into my dell poweredge 2850 (dual xeon) and the disc fails to verify.
Even if I go ahead and try to install, it will boot and go through the menus. Then on package install at some point it will say one is corrupt and halts the install. Yet ubuntu 9.04 installs just fine on it. So I don't see how it could be the dvd player itself, though not 100% ruled out.
Does anyone know how to list hardware raid status under Redhat 5.4 running on Dell PowerEdge 2850?

SATA 82801GR controller
LSI Logic SAS1068 Fusion-MPT PCI-X
HP 8 Internal Port SAS HBA with RAID
SATA CD-Rom TEAC DV-W28S-RS
INTEL e1000 2 port NIC
It seems no CD-Rom was found by SLES as well as no NIC was found. So I can't start install nor using CD or LAN. I started booting from OES SP2 CD 1. The boot loader started normally, but when I chose Installation it says Could Not Find the SLES 9 Installation CD. Activating Manual Installation.
Here in the manual installation screen I check System Information - Hard Disks and CD-Roms It says No Hard Disks or CD-Rom drives have been detected so far Then
1. I erased the BIOS/HD through RBSU
2. downlaod Driver Diskette for HP U320 SCSI Adapter, SAS HBA with RAID, SCxxXe and SCxxGe series HBA (x86 and AMD32) for SUSE LINUX Enterprise Server 9 (x86)
3. startfed installation again.
Now I can see in the manual installation screen - System Information - Hard Disks and CD-Roms MY RAID 1 ARRAY 278GB, but still NO CD-ROM, NO NICS at ALL. Also I have recently updated all firmware, tried changing CD/DVD-Rom adding ordinary SATA HDD, and the result is the same - no CD, no HDD is seen. So I suppose the linux kernel doesn't support my motherboard SATA channels? Additionally, I tried to install SLES 10 SP3 (OES2) and it was success, all the hardware were detected including CD and NICs How can I add driver prior to installation or install using my array HDD?

To resolve this error, I tried to install Mesa OpenGL libraries (mesa-7.5.2). But its not getting installed even after resolving dependencies such as libdrm, dri2proto, libpthread-stubs.
Are there any rpm distributions available for mesa libraries on Suse?
I ran Karmic until last week, and noticed that it seemed to be getting slower. I was hoping a clean install of Lucid would fix that. it's worse. If I leave my machine running for a few hours, something begins dragging down the performance to a crawl.
System Monitor sometimes won't come up - launches an empty grey window. Other times, System Monitor reports that gnome-system-monitor is consuming 86-96% CPU. This is a dual-core Dell e6500 laptop with 4 Gigs of RAM, it should fly. Any ideas on troubleshooting this?
Attempts to do a mount -t nfs4 servername:/share /mnt hang. Performing an strace of the mount shows that the mount command is attempting to find /sbin/mount.nfs4 The nfs server, client, and util packages are installled. Did ps -ef | grep idmapd; ps -ef | grep gssd to check client side daemons and things look good. Not using gssd right now tho. Just want to get the thing to mount. Firewalls are not running. Doing a showmount -e servername reports the shares as being offered. I can mount it using nfs v3 protocol.

I've got several language multimedia CD-Rom's, made for Windows 95/98/98 SE and 2000, that I'm using by means of my daughter's old PC (Win 98 SE O.S.).

Is it possible that 20% (circa) of 60 memory bank are broken? By the way, memory bank have Lifetime warranty from Kingston. If I reboot again the server affected by this error, the error disappear from messages log file and from OpenManage Web interface.
Is it possible that is a CentOS bug? I had search some relative bugs on Bugzilla but without any results.
how to install a D-Link Access Point on Suse 11.0 or steer me toward documentation that will do that? I configured the device on XP following instruction from this forum and the AP configured perfectly.The AP is plugged directly into the network port on the computer. It *should* function correctly without a router. I tried a restart and Suse has no idea it's there. The computer is currently configured for a wired connection which needs to be changed. The computer itself is going to be used as a small home storage server.

I find the partitioner somewhat hard to use and the answer may be staring me in the face but I can't see it.

What is missing, or is it a permission problem? All the other application icons seem fine.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I've got a Dell Poweredge R410 with SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 installed and my boss wants me to configure it like this:
Eth0 - No IP address (on general tab, activation set to "never")
Eth1 - No IP address (on general tab, activation set to "never")
Eth2 - No IP address (on general tab, activation set to "never")
Eth3 - No IP address (on general tab, activation set to "never")
bond0 - eth0, eth1, eth2, eth3 selected (Activation set to "On boot") No IP Address
bridge0 - bond0 selected (Activation set to "On boot"). IP, subnet and hostname defined.
The DNS and routing has all been set correctly. The problem is when I set the network configuration as above I cannot connect to the network I'm unable to ping the gateway. I only have 1 cable connected and it's plugged into eth0 but apparently this doesn't matter. If I delete the bond and bridge and instead apply the settings to eth0 it connects no problem but my boss wants to use load balancing and states that that setup should work.
if there is available SLES clone out there. Like Red Hat Enterprise Linux = CentOS?
