It seems to be drbd is not available in ubuntu 10.10 at all. I just installed the drbd8-utils package thinking the kernel module would already be built-in. But I guess not, because here is the error I get:
Code:
# drbdadm syncer r0
Could not stat("/proc/drbd"): No such file or directory
do you need to load the module?
try: modprobe drbd
Command 'drbdsetup 1 syncer --set-defaults --create-device' terminated with exit code 20
drbdadm syncer r0: exited with code 20
I'm trying to build a Fedora 12 cluster to run DHCP on top of two servers using pacemaker and drbd. The pacemaker runs great but i'm having the hardest time getting DRBD installed.
My kernel version is 2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686.PAE First i tried to [root@dhcp-primary drbd]#yum install drbd this doesn't give me everything because apparently the kernel module for DRBD must be built from source. so i unpacked drbd-8.3.6.tar.gz and tried :
[Code]...
I'm not very experienced in compiling from source i'd love to make an rpm for this but after scouring the web and trying different install methods, I am still at a loss.
I'm running RHEL 5.5 on two workstation for test DRBD and I get something that sound strange ...[URL] Quote:Protocol C. Synchronous replication protocol. Local write operations on the primary node are considered completed only after both the local and the remote disk write have been confirmed. As a result, loss of a single node is guaranteed not to lead to any data loss. Data loss is, of course, inevitable even with this replication protocol if both nodes (or their storage subsystems) are irreversibly destroyed at the same time. By far, the most commonly used replication protocol in DRBD setups is protocol C.
I'm gonna set up a HA-cluster with the help of DRBD. I have installed DRBD and it's working on the Primary node, I synced them and formated it to ext3 and mounted it successfully on the Primary.
When I'm gonna mount it on the Secondary node it just tells me that I need to specify a filesystem.. so it looks like is hasn't been synced properly or something but both nodes are up to date.
This is my drbd.conf:
Code: global { usage-count no; } resource dbcluster {
[Code].....
and could mount it without any problems on dbcluster1, but it doesn't work on dbcluster2.. according to the documentation and various howtos I'm suppose to be able to use it, mount it on both nodes etc. unless I've missed something.
Does anyone know if there is something else I need to do to get it running properly on the Secondary?
I've been working at creating a highly available set of host servers for a linux diskless boot cluster.Each host machine is fitted with redundant power supplies and two 1TB drives in a Raid-1 configuration.When I first started this project they each had twin 160GB drives. In my original setup I had both nodes acting as primary systems so that I could mount /dev/drbd0 to my /data directory and see changes immediately.It had worked in the past where I could make a file in /data on the first machine and it would show up in the /data directory on the second machine. One day this had stopped working where if I made a file on the first machine it would display on the second one until I unmounted /data and remounted it to the /dev/drbd0 disk.
This is when I bought the new disks and decided to start from scratch. The weird thing is that if I make a file on the primary and remount on the secondary to see it and then delete it from the secondary and THEN delete it on the primary, the primary throws no error however it goes into read-only mode because it knows that file was already gone.Below is my configuration file, sda8 is an 820GB partition which is used for all of the data I want to replicate, currently populated with ~10GB of data. Sda7 is my metadisk partition which is 500MB large clearly more than needed by drbd.Also you will notice "incon-degr-cmd "halt -f";" is commented out. This is because when I go to actually use it drbd throws an error when reloading the configuration and I'm not sure why that is either
i have problems with my failover machines and cant locate the cause. The last update is quite some time ago.So will it hurt my configuration when I do an yum-update? I have 5 Xen VM on each machine, also they replicate with drbd and heartbeat. Can I just update the dom0 and leave the VM untouched inside?
i have a two node drbd cluster, while drbd1 is primary and drbd2 is slave i should make drbd1 slave and unmount drbd partition and make make drbd2 primary and mount drbd partition to see content on drbd2is it any way to automate it so as drbd1 goes down, drbd1 make itself primary and mount the partition?
I'm trying to configure an ISCSI/DRBD high-availability cluster and I'd like to know what is the best option between OpenAIS and Heartbeat. I've seen they both are included in Centos Repos, yet OpenAIS requires installing 2 addition repos to install Pacemaker (EPEL and Clusterlab repos).
I've set up DRBD on 2 machines, 1 of them is the master, another is the slave.
After each bootup, I need to run the following on the master machine:
Code: drbdadm -- --overwrite-data-of-peer primary all
Do we need to specify which machine should be the primary node every time? Is there any method to make the machine "know" it's itself the primary node?
I am trying to setup HA for mySQL on SLES11sp1 with DRBD and heartbeat. I found the HAE of SLES seems has DRBD and SLES10 also have a older version. But after I installed SLES11 and also one SLES11sp1,both don't have DRBD. I downloaded a DRBD RPM for opensuse,it gave me glic error "need glic.so.64 bit",etc. When I tried to install those GLBIC stuff ,also errors for dependencies again. I tried to use the source
I'm curious if anybody can shed some light for me in this department. We're in a large environment with a Windows DHCP Server. We have been tinkering with LTSP on Edubuntu as thin and fat clients. It works great, but right now we just have 1 server handling the lab, which works fine unless we want to expand, which may be very possible.
These are the instructions I received: Login to your windows server and load the DHCP configuration screen Create a DHCP reservation for the MAC address you obtained Add the configuration options below to enable the machine to boot from the LTSP server 017 Root Path: /opt/ltsp/i386 066 Boot Server Host Name: <ip address> 067 Bootfile Name: ltsp/arch/pxelinux.0 # Specify CPU architecture in place of 'arch', for instance 'i386'

I'm curious, what if I want to have multiple Ubuntu servers on the network that I want to have bootable? For example, let's say I have 3 labs, and 3 servers. Server A to Lab A, Server B to Lab B, and Server C to Lab C. I want all C's computers to boot to C, and B to B, A to A, etc.
1 - How would I add multiple entries on the Windows DHCP Server to allow all 3 (A B C) servers to boot?
2 - How would I be able to isolate the clients so ONLY Lab A clients boot to Server A, etc?
I am looking for a version of vmware that manages 2 severs at the same time and that mirrors them such that if one goes down we can still work on the second and of course it also works as a backup. Also, must work on a ubuntu server I have looked but there are so many version that I don't know which one is the best.
(Mods: If you feel this belongs more in the Games or Wine discussion area, please feel free to move. This question does intersect many areas, so was unsure where to put)
I have a funky server Ubuntu 9.10 Enterprise setup where I have X on all the time (using Xfce4 - not Xbuntu) with latest wine so I can run Windows only based game server executables. One of the applications is a simple dedicated racing game server made by the company I work for that works perfect in wine (unfortunately, the full 3D game client does not, so its a windows only game). The other is more just to test, runs Serious Sam HD dedicated with wine with a steam client active in background since SSHD Ded requires a steam client logged in (just create a dummy account).
Im getting some lag issues with the SSHD on the end-users client side. Unsure if its related to it being a more complex game and using wine to translate slowing it down. Things like tiny warps once in awhile, and the ping of clients kinda jumping around.
Im pretty sure my network settings are ok. Maybe not fully optimized for every bit via ipv4. Still though. This 1U Opteron server is in a ISP with a full 1000 up and down. Ports are locked out that aren't being used. I do have apache going, but its nothing strenuous. The CPU isnt used overly so. Maybe peaks out around 60% under strain, but mostly 20-40%. Memory use is about 550-700megs for SSHD itself. Given, it only has 2 gigs total at this time, but I still usually have near a Gig of memory available at most times.
I admit newbness of linux servers in general. Was reading about other game servers like CS:S requiring a ticked kernel near 1000 to get the least amount of lag. Some even saying they dropped the tickless options of the newer 2.6 kernels on purpose because they produced lag. Was checking on the history of newer Windows Server like 2008 and they still use a ticked OS, though a more optimized version.
So this boils down to should I be running a Ticked OS kernel to run a more complex Windows based dedicated server? I haven't tried thus far, well because I am again a bit of a n00b to all this. That and I'm not sure you have to tell wine or the SS:HD dedicated exe itself to run at a full ticked rate (no option I have seen for a command line function in the SS:HD itself).
I have Webmin installed on an Ubuntu server. I currently have a successful apache server running on port 80, however I want to create a virtual host on port 81. When I try I go to servers->Apache Webserver-> Create Virtual Host I change the port to 81 and the document root to /var/port81www then I click create. How ever when I goto 192.168.1.5:81 (local ip, I know I have to port forward but its not even working local) it does not work.
I handle several hundreds of domains. Mails are handled with google apps (but previously I used to have a full postfix/courrier setup with virtualhosting). Now what I need is to be able to send mail (newsletter etc...) from my web servers, but I don't need to receive mail on these servers.
I got my hands on a couple old servers. An HP tc2021 and a Proliant ML110. Sure they're ancient, but I thought they would make a couple of great Ubuntu Servers for a new "start up" business I'm trying out. Now I've got to decide the best scenario to distribute the load between the two servers. I'm going to make an internal domain and will probably be running the following: Kerberos, Samba, Apache, Postfix, mysql, bind, dhcp, SVN, GCC, and Nagios. So in summary, I'll have the following roles; domain controller, web server, file server, and network monitoring services. how they would handle splitting these services up between two servers?
I am running apache2 and tornado web servers on the same server with one ip address.
The apache2 listens on port 80. Tornado listens on port 8888. I want to redirect requests from a specific ip port 80 to port 8888. I don't have the ability to change the port request on the device. It wants is looking for a web server on port 80.
Any other web server request should go to the apache.
I tried adding the following to /etc/ufw/before.rules
When I run iptables -L it doesn't appear. I have disabled and enabled ufw with no help.
Now that I have more computers I am looking at new solutions to manage the proliferation.My Linux machine has been replaced and its now much more powerful than before but its still a 32-bit processor. No problem as I am not using anything unorthodox outside the LAMP stack with a few PHP add-ons to support graphics.I use SAMBA so I can edit web sites easily with Windows tools.So now given a Windows Server, who should be king server and have everybody on the same page so to speak.
We have 5 servers here. What we are going to setup is not a Web server. We want to combine these servers to parallel calculating. I have searched for some information. May be cloud computing would be our choice. I don't know whether I am right.and if I decide to use the cloud, is Ubuntu server my best choice?Can anyone give me some clue about this?
I own a rather large website/forum devoted to Scuba utilizing vBulletin. The problem is that its become INCREDIBLY slow as of late. I have three Ubuntu web servers under a single Ubuntu load balancer and they draw from a CentOS 5 DB server running MYSQL. Here are my concerns:
-I am thinking that they are all 32 bit rather than 64 bit. -I am thinking that the problem is an IO issue.
I currently have a group of 3 servers connected to a local network. One is a web server, one is a mysql server, the other used for a specific function on my site (calculation of soccer matches!).
Anyway, I have been working on the site a lot lately but it is tedious connecting my USB hard drive to each computer and copying the files. This means I am not backing up as often as I should...
I have a laptop connected to this same network that I use for development so I can SSH into to the computers, is there any software for ubuntu that can take backups of files that I choose on multiple computers? I know I could rsync but is there something with more or an GUI?
Then I can just every 2 days move the most recent backup from my laptop to the USB drive. Then I will have the backup stored in 2 places if things go kaboom somewhere.
I'm running Ubuntu Server 10.04 and have a secure (SSL/TLS) FTP server on it. However, I'd like to use this FTP server to update programs I made using Microsoft Visual Studio. Unfortunately, in Microsoft's infinite wisdom, secure FTP servers cannot be used. Rather than use an insecure FTP server, I want to set up my secure FTP server to be able to access whatever I need to on the machine, and then add an insecure FTP server that only has access to the directory where I put my update files. I am currently using vsftpd as my FTP server. Is there any way that I can set up two FTP servers on this single machine?
I wonder if other people have this problem. sometimes I need to duplicate most or all of a server from one machine to another. part where I most tend to have issues is with recreating the users. Sometimes the UIDs don't match up because of differences between the two systems, which gives funky results, like files owned by the wrong user.
Or, sometimes, I just need to create the same 10 users on x number of machines, and it's tedious to do this 10x times. Plus, then, if you need to change a password or delete a user, you have to do it x times.Any recommendations on how to centralize users/auth?
I'm going to be setting up a couple of servers for some friends. I'd like them to be able to email me some information after they do some maintenance scripts via cron. I got my own server to send email using a tutorial I found but that involved using my personal gmail account. getting email sending working on ubuntu server with minimal fuss and account credential exposure?
Ive been asked by my boss to set up a ubuntu machine that will be used as a syslog server. He wants a GUI as a posed to a CLI. He would also perfer to have it non web based. We already have cati installed but he is not keen on the syslog side of that. Does anyone know of any other syslog programs?
Is it possible to run two servers through one ip address? And I don't mean through apache to run virtual servers. Right now my set up is: Cable modem>router>server.
