Server :: What About Git Reps Inside Of Git "file System"?
Oct 22, 2010
I have a file server that all of my windows users have their my documents point to their home folders on the file server which is on a raid controller. I then have an external raid array on the same file server that rsyncs with the home folders nightly. I also backup some etc folders from various other Linux boxes also using rsync and ssh. I then have an external server at another location that rsync's with the external backup raid array for added security. I am replacing tapes as they are unreliable and cumbersome. What i liked about tapes was having a rotation of say 3 or 5 days so files at different iterations could be recovered. I want to mimic this with the above setup.
The root directory of the external array where all the rsyncing is taking place I thought I would turn the entire thing into a git repository and using gitbak + metastore + some cron scripts (to keep metadata) I could then in effect have the same kind of features as multiple tapes in a nice versioned system.Questions...
1. Is this the best way to do this?
2. What about git reps inside of the git "file system"?
3. How much overhead can I expect from having to keep versions of everything?
4. Building off 3 is there a way to remove old revisions for instance only having the last 5 days of changes?

I am kinda stuck while providing solution for the above problem. I have achieved the fail over using keepalived but not sure how can we replicate the data from one server to other seamlessly and have them in sync with each other. My prime requirement for this project is end user should not notice the fail over and replicated copy of data should be available on the secondary as well.

I have a weird performance issue with a centos 5 running a nfs server and a rh8 client. I think the fact that it is rh8 client should be downplayed. It is just that with rh8 client the performance degradation seems more clear. See test details below OS in server is Centos 5 x86_64 kernel 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5
1Gb connection between machines File to test over NFS is a 1GB file. First of all I wanted to measure how the network alone performs while using NFS. So in the server side I run a "cat" command on the 1GB file to /dev/null. Please note that the disk read speed is about 98MBs. At this point the file system has the 1GB file cached in memory. In the client side a "cat" on the same file gives me a speed of about 113MBs. It seems then that the bottleneck in this instance is the network and it is very close to nominal speed. So the network performance is really good. (BTW I know that the server got that file from cache because a vmstat or iostat shows no disk activity.)
The second test is reading from disk with no caching involve. In the server I flushed the 1GB file from the memory. For instance by reading another 5GB file and I repeat the same thing as above in the client (a cat on the 1GB file). Now, the server has to go to disk.(vmstat or iostat shows the disk activity). However the performance, now, is about 20MBs, I was expecting something closer so 90MBs. (since the reading speed in the server in the first test showed 98MBs).
This second test was repeated for ext2, ext3, xfs with no significant differences. A similar test using a RH8 NFS server and client gets me close to 60MBs for a 1GB file not cache by the file system in the serverSince network speeds and disk read speeds are not the bottlenecks ... what or where is the limiting factor then?

I have a custom file, that is created by a X (not known) program. I would like to "try" to read one of the files it creates. Of course one way is to try to open it from c or java and try to see what is inside the file. For that I have to do a few retries with different data types.
Thus I was thinking if there is any program, that can facilitate this checking by reading the file with all the different ways fast.

I've just installed ubuntu 10.04 server on an old box to use as a home server for network storage. I've managed to get wireless working, and now have started to tinker with the base system (it's more of an experimental machine than a critical backup server!). I've installed xorg-core and JWM, and have set it up to function as a basic GUI in case my main box goes down and I need access to these forums. I can start JWM by using
Code: startx, but I need to know how to end the X server from inside the gui, so that I can create a kind of 'exit' button. I know I can end the session by going back to tty1 with ctrl-alt-f1 and using ctrl-c, but is there a way of doing this from inside of the gui? Is it even possible?

I know this is a common problem, but i have a special case that troubles me and i can't find an answer anywhere. The facts are like this: I have a linux router. I have 2 FTP servers. One on port 21, one on port 201 (on the same internal IP). The FTP works great when connecting on both servers from the outside. My problem is when i'm trying to connect to the 201 FTP server from inside the network using the external ip.
I get this:
ftp> ls
200 Port command successful
150 Opening data channel for directory list.
And it stays like this forever.

i am working on some kind of PBX and i have list of telephone numbers inside a file, i have to insert these numbers into the correct command and then telnet to a remote server and execute these commands. i can read the telephone numbers and insert them into the command with no problem, but when i try to insert these commands into the send i face problem. here is the basic code
#!/bin/bash
read msisdn < input
string="ZZZZ:MSISDN=$msisdn;"
[code]....
i can make external loop inside the Bash which read the input file and issue the command and then telnet and execute, but this will make the script connects and disconnects again for each line which cause high load on that server and hardwar problem. i am wondering if there is an option inside the expect interperter which makes the send read directly from a file... somthing like this:
expect "<"
send "input-filename
"
expect "<"
expect eof

I can't get sed to actually change the file, clearly there's something basic not working, can anyone point me in the right direction? I know nothing about scripting. Oh yeah, all the directories have spaces which was why so elaborated.
find . -name "*epub" | while read file; do unzip -o "$file" content.opf && mv content.opf content.opf.bak && sed 's/<dc:language>UND</dc:language>/<dc:language xsi:type="dcterms:RFC4646">EN</dc:language>/' < content.opf.bak > content.opf && zip "$file" content.opf && rm -f content.* ; done

I have a question regarding extending file system. We are using RedHat 4 with update 8.Is it possible to extend an file system with GFS file system type while at the same time the same file system that need to be extended is used as an NFS file system? Is it necessary to stop the nfs daemon before extending the GFS file system? If it is necessary to stop nfs daemon, what can happen if it is not stopped prior extending?
