Any way to specify options for scheduled filesystem checks?

Today I ran e2fsck -fD on my netbook's ext4 partitions, and was surprised to see the machine's cumulative boot and login time drop by about ten seconds. Evidently the "rarely necessary" nature of the -D option doesn't mean it shouldn't be done once in a while.
So I'm wondering if there's a way to make e2fscks scheduled by tune2fs use -D. Is it possible to specify the parameters through tune2fs, or some other way? The man page doesn't say; nor does there appear to be anything on it for e2fsck.conf.

This should be possible via the configuration file e2fsck.conf (/etc/e2fsck.conf) - it has an own man page. If you want to change options for your root system I guess you have to create such a config file in your initramfs.
An alternative would be to boot from a live cd.

  • Why different ways to access options for tools?

    Sometimes options for tools are in the Control panel, sometime you  double click on the tool, and sometimes you double click on the Artboard?
    Is there a reason it works this way?  Just trying to understand the logic to make it easier to figure out which way to access options for which tools.
    Thanks!

    Each area you sighted has different options. That's why they are different.
    Items in the Control Bar are generally items you'll adjust per use.
    Items by double-clicking the tool are generally set once per session, or once ever.
    I don't know what you are referring to by "double-clicking the artboard" As far as I'm aware, that only enters or exits Isolation Mode. (And can be turned off in the preferences.)

  • Is there any way to raise alerts for stock outages in inventory

    Is there any way to raise alerts for stock outages in inventory

    You can use the Check Material Shortages attribute in the Org items under Inventory tab. Oracle will trigger shortage alert notifucations for the checked items. This works in the conjuntion with the Shortage Parameters defined at the Inv ORg level (these parameters are nothing but what business wants to consider as a shortage in WIP and OM). You can notify the cmp planner/buyer , assy planner/job creator..

    Hey Rich,
    It is true that you cannot add more than 250 plots to a 2d-axis graph in the REPORT.  One work around is to have the graphs stacked on top of each other and plot 250 to one graph and 250 more to another graph.  I am including a TDR (you have to unzip it) file that has 12 2d-axis stacked on top of each other.  Most of the properties have been made invisible through the graph properties.  You can still see the legends however.  One caveat to this is that you will have issues accessing the different graphs.  You have to do it from a VBScript.  The following line of code worked for me:
    Call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis" + Str(NewAxis))
    Where NewAxis is a variable that defines which graph I want to look at.  You would of course have to loop through the graphs as you add data. 
    Cheers,

  • Any way to set color for value in chart and still filter out values (but retain colors)?

    Is there any way that I can hard code a color into a chart and still filter out values?
    I have 5 divisions, each with a specific color.  I have put them into a stacked column chart and it looks fine.  My issue arises when I try to filter out some of the divisions.  The colors do not stay with the specified divisions.
    Ex.)
      Div 1 = Red
      Div 2 = Green
      Div 3 = Black
    When I filter out Div 1, this is what I see:
    Div 2 = Red
    Div 3 = Green
    I have tried standard delivered filter panel, and check-boxes using CHART_1.setDataSelection( )
    It seems like the color hard coding in the "additional" properties of the chart are not tied to the value, but are determined by sort order.  Any help is greatly appreciated

    Hi,
    There is one Possibility bu not By chart .
    It will look like chart but will use Text box .
    Lets say you have 5 Divisions & 3 Key figures .
    Then You need 5 * 3 = 15 Text box .
    Arrange them in 5 columns and 3 rows type of view .
    now .
    set fix width for all .
    set the height & position by coding
    You need to set this type of code for filter selection also .

  • How to specify alias for local filesystem in JBOSS

    hi,
    I want to specify alias for localfilesystem in JBOSS. I know how to do it in Apache_2.0.52-Openssl_0.9.7e-Win32. In this we can specify alias as,
    Alias /icons/ "C:/Program Files/Apache_2.0.52-Openssl_0.9.7e-Win32/icons/" in httpd.conf and futher we can specify the directory access also. So I want to do the same thing in JBOSS. How to do it.
    Thanks.

    JBoss is an app-server, not an HTTP server. The concept of directories is meaningless, as everything is based on contexts. Any of the HTTP server options will be handled by the Tomcat (Catalina) engine that is part of the JBoss installation. You can configure the Tomcat server by editing the jboss-service.xml file in JBOSS_HOME/deploy/tomcat-5.5.sar (or something like that). If you really need to start mapping/rewriting URLs onto your J2EE application, I'd suggest using Apache as the front-end, and connect the Web-tier to Apache via mod_jk. Then you can use all of Apache's URL rewriting and directory aliasing and specify access on a per-location basis. Some of Apache's functionality may be available to the Catalina engine, but there's no sense in trying to make Tomcat as "capable" as Apache, when a means to connect the two already exists.

  • Mount options for ZFS filesystem on Solaris 10

    Do you know some recomendation
    about mount options for SAP on Oracle
    with data on ZFS filesystem?
    Also recomended block size required.
    We assume that file system with datafiles has 8kb block size
    and offline redologs has default (128kB).
    But what about ONLINE REDOLOGS?
    Best regards
    Andy

    SUN Czech installed new production HW for one Czech customer with ZFS filesystem on data-, redo- and archivelog files.
    Now we have performance problem and currently there is no SAP recomendation
    for ZFS file system.
    The HW which are by benchmark about tvice power has worst responses than
    old hardware.
    a) There is bug in Solaris 10 - ZFS buffers once allocated are not released
        (generally we do not want to use buffering due to prevence of double
         buffering)
    b) ZFS buffers takes about 20GB (32GB total) of memory on DB server
    and we are not able to define huge shared pool and db cache. (it may be possible
    to set special parameter in /etc/system to reduce maximum size of ZFS buffers to e.g. 4GB )
    c) We are looking for proven mount option for ZFS to enable asynchronious/concurent io for database filesystems
    d) There is no proven clear answer for support of ZFS/SOLARIS/Oracle/SAP.
    SAP says It is Oracle problem, Oracle does not certify filesystems from Jan2007
    any more and says ask your OS provider and SUN looks happy, but performance
    goes down and it is not so funny for system with 1TG DB with over 30GB grow
    per month.

  • ACS 5.3 Dashboard - Any way to create Dashboard for all users?

    I'm at the point of setting up admin access for engineers needing to have insight into the operations and status of our ACS 5.3 systems.
    I'm curious if there's any way to create a Dashboard that can be applied to all admin user accounts? (perhaps a custom role?)
    I've been able to customize the dashboard for my own account to show what is most relevant, but am unable to figure out how to apply this layout and setup to all other users.
    Basically, I have a number of folks that need to see this data, but that I can't exactly count on to setup their own dashboards to show the important details.  If there were some way to build a tab/dashboard/portlet, etc (whatver it may be) and have it apply to all users, that would save me TONS of work so that I don't have to login to each person's account and set things up for them.
    For example, I want to have all users see a tab/dashboard that shows the applet "Live Authentications", but with the protocol already configured to display TACACS vs the default which is RADIUS.
    Any thoughts?
    -Chris

    Chris,
    I see you are looking for read-only access to Dashboard. Currently there is no way to force all Admins to use same Dashboard and all admins will have full control of the Dashboard.

  • Is there any way to sync Outlook for Mac with iPhone? I have tried everything but not successful. Apple says it is not possible to sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Is there any way to Sync contacts from Outlook for Mac to iPhone 5? Apple support says that only iTune can only sync contacts from "Contact" which is the default contact of Mac. If one is running Outllok on a Mac machine then it is not possible to sync the contacts with iPhone. It is strange that Apple distributors are promoting and offering machines with promise that Windows users can now run MS Office on Mac machines without any problem. While this is true, it is so strange that one cannot sync the contacts from MacBook Pro to iPhone5. If someone has found a way to sync contacts from Outlook to iPhone 5 please help as it is very frustrating to not be able to sync the contacts. Thanks, Amit.

  • Is there any way to specify the default version of LabVIEW?

    I have a sinking feeling that the answer to this question is "no."  With more than one version installed, is there any way to set the default LabVIEW version for opening a VI? I have both 7.1 and 8 installed, and usually only use 8 to open an example or look at something posted here.  When I do that, it resets all the OS hooks so that the default action for opening a VI is to open it in version 8.  I've even gone so far as to create actions to open files in 7.1 and 8, but it always resets my default action.
    I found this KB article for when version 7 came out, but it's suggestions don't seem to work with 7 and 8.
    Ugh. I hate it when software thinks it knows what I want better than I do.

    Add
    in the LabVIEW.ini file of those versions you do not want to rewrite
    the registry on startup to point to themselves for VI files, the
    following:
    RegisterExtensions=False
    Of course the VersionChooser utility mentioned earlier is even more convinient.
