Enlarging root filesystem of the VM Server

Hey everyone,
I have a Oracle VM environment up and running in test: 2 servers in a server pool with 5 virtual machines.
Now I want to add a nbew Virtual disk of 100 Gb to I virtual machine, but I get the error that 31 Gb is the max size I can allocate. This is the output from the VM Server:
[root@oralinuxhs008 /]# df -k
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2 128952416 87888528 34407760 72% /
/dev/sda1 101086 45745 50122 48% /boot
tmpfs 277592 0 277592 0% /dev/shm

There are still unallocated disks in the server. Can I enlarge the / like on a regular Linux installation? ANd will I be able to use this additional disk space
for the Virtual disk?
Thanks!
Steven

user2781320,
Pardon my poor math skills in advance, it looks like you only have a 50G root storage repository with 30Gs free. There is no space to add a 100G virtual disk.
Please consider the following two options:
a) provision and configure a new extended repository with a little more than 100G, i.e. 101G and then using Oracle VM Manager create a 100G shared virtual disk. Next, using Oracle VM Manager attach the shared virtual disk to the guest.
Please refer to http://itnewscast.com/chapter-6-oracle-vm-22-san-iscsi-and-nfs-backend-storage-configurations#Adding_an_Extended_NFS_Storage_Repository and http://itnewscast.com/chapter-6-oracle-vm-22-san-iscsi-and-nfs-backend-storage-configurations for details
b) add an extended storage repository, i.e. http://itnewscast.com/chapter-6-oracle-vm-22-san-iscsi-and-nfs-backend-storage-configurations#Adding_an_Extended_NFS_Storage_Repository big enough for all of the virtual machine's disks, i.e. all of the virtual machine's disks in the /OVS/running_pool/<Virtual Machine Name directory> plus the additional 100G virtual disk. Once you have provisioned the new LUN and have configured it on the Oracle VM servers, move the root directory of the virtual machine (/OVS/running_pool/<Virtual Machine Name directory>) to the new extended storage repository. Next, in Oracle VM Manager delete the virtual machine that you just moved from /OVS/running_pool/<Virtual Machine Name directory> to /OVS/UUID/running_pool/<Virtual Machine Name directory> and then import the virtual machine using Oracle VM Manager. Now you can add the 100G virtual disk to the virtual machine using Oracle VM Manager.
Q: Can I enlarge the / like on a regular Linux installation?
A: No, please see http://itnewscast.com/chapter-6-oracle-vm-22-san-iscsi-and-nfs-backend-storage-configurations
Q: And will I be able to use this additional disk space for the Virtual disk?
A: Which additional space?
Respectfully,
Roddy

  • How to archive billing docs in PDF format on the application server?

    Hi,
    I want to archive billing docs in PDF format on the application server.
    Formerly on our SAP system, Archivelink was set up to archive these documents to an HTTP content server. Since we no longer have this server, I want to adapt it to simply output the PDFs to a filesystem on the application server. I have tried to reconfigure the content repository (tcode OAC0) without success.
    Am I on the right track?
    If so, which document area, storage type, etc should I use?

    Hi Slath,
    from DMS point of view you may use the storage category 'DMS_C1_ST' and the content repository 'DMS_C1' as a kind of template. The document area for DMS storage categories has to be maintained as 'DMS'.
    Best regards,
    Christoph

  • Root filesystem won't mount.

    Im getting a file not found/kernel panic error when the kernel tries to mount my root filesystem.
    The partition is being specified correctly on the grub kernel line and I dont believe it is a module issue - this happens for both ext2 and ext3 partitions, but not all - just my arch partition.
    So what else could cause the kernel to not mount it?

  • Mounting a filesystem within the zone root before booting it...

    Hi all,
    I want to mount a filesystem within the zone root before booting it. The mount works (of course...), but when I want to boot the zone (zoneadm -z stat-prod-02 boot), I've got the following error:
    zoneadm: zone 'stat-prod-02': These file-systems are mounted on subdirectories of /zones/stat-prod-02/zone/root:
    zoneadm: zone 'stat-prod-02': /zones/stat-prod-02/zone/root/sas
    zoneadm: zone 'stat-prod-02': call to zoneadmd failed
    So, my question is: is it possible to mount a filesystem within the zone root before booting it ? If yes, what am I missing ?
    Regards,
    Jeff

    I certainly see what he's trying to achieve -- an easy transition for admins who are not experienced with zones.
    If I tell an admin that everything under /zoneroots/foobar/root is part of the server "foobar"'s root directory, that's a pretty easy concept. That admin can go onto the global zone, create a new logical volume and mount it as (for example) /zoneroots/foorbar/root/dba93 (updating the global zone's /etc/vfstab) using all their "regular" skills. Unfortunately this works for the moment, but now the zone is unbootable (unbeknownst to the poor admin...).
    If I tell the same admin they have to create the logical volume like normal, but then they have to go into this unfamiliar "zoneadm" command and start typing in these new commands, they suddenly are a lot less interested in doing the work (meaning it gets push to the "guy who knows zones"). Not only does this place a burden on the person who knows zones best, it slows their adoption because the admin team isn't supportive of them.
    I too don't see why the zone cares that something is mounted as a sub-dir of it's root -- it's not a directory that the zone configuration is going to try and mount (THAT would be a problem and a suitable reason to abort). Tracing into this I see that the "zone_create" system call is returning with "EBUSY" which just seems wrong...

  • Remote and testing server don't see root relative links the same

    My site works fine on my testing server (Apache, MYSQL,
    PHP). I use root relative links in a library
    file (include file) so that it will work with all pages. For the testing server these links look like this:
    /my_sites_root_folder/aaa/bbb/ccc etc.
    If I use these same links on the remote server they won't work. To get hem to work I have to change all these links to the form
    /aaa/bbb/ccc etc.
    When dreamweaver uploads files to the remote server, the site name folder  (my_sites_root_folder) doesn't go along for the ride--just the files in it. So on the remote all the site files are stored in htdocs. On my testing server, the files are stored in htdocs/my_site_root_folder.
    I think it must have something to do with the way I'm setting up the remote and testing servers, but I'm read a hundred pages of instructions without being able to figure it out. I think I'm just seeing something wrong, but I've already spent days on this. Can someone please point me in the right direction?
    I'm using DWCS5. Internet explorer 8, Windows 7.

    Thank you for your prompt response. I'm afraid I'm still totally puzzled here. It sounds like you're very knowledeable about your comments, but I would like to know more. I accept that using the local site root in links would be bad, but I'm not clear WHY. Structuring the links as I have doesn't cause any links to break. I've structured them this way because it's the only way I can find that everything works. But I still do not understand WHY I have to do it. Using different libary include files doesn't seem like a good way to go, though
    You suggest that if I use any root relative links at all, I need to use vitual hosts. I'm not finding any good coverage of what these are, and especially why they are necessary. If this is the case, does that imply that templates (which use root relative links) also will not work on the test server (at least without vitual hosts)? The conclusion I'm coming up with, given your remarks, is "Dreamweaver doesn't work with root relevant links when you're trying to test a site with a test server." Is this right?

  • After upgrading to Solaris 10 "Can't load the root filesystem" on V245

    I have a Sunfire V245 that was running on Solaris 9 (very stable). I upgraded to Solaris 10 (6/06) this morning and everything seemed to go smoothly. After the upgrade the system rebooted, but will not boot. I get the following uptput;

    It seems like the driver for that device does not exist. Since the system installed successfully it means that it S10 did find a disk. I wonder if that was a different disk than the default disk. Please boot to the miniroot and check the disk info.

  • Running the App Server as a user other than root

    We used to use iPlanet Web Server which during installation allowed you to specify which user you wanted to run the Web Server. This was very good for security. How do you do this with the App server ?
    Thanks
    PS We are running it on Solaris 9.

    Application Server 7 expands on the flexibility offered in the web server.
    The most basic means to define app server instances with non-root users is to create an administrative domain (basically, an admin server instance) using the user ID of interest. As you create new application server instances in the admin domain, you can assign the same user ID to the instances.
    (There is an admin domain that is initially configured as part of the app server installation. If you installed the product as root, then the admin server and the initially configured app server instance are owned by root. If you do not want these instances to be owned by root, you should remove this admin domain and create a new one that is owned by a non-root user.)
    For example, with the following command, I've created a new app server config (an administrative domain) containing an admin server owned by user "ckamps":
    root@canteloupe-{}: asadmin create-domain sysuser ckamps adminuser admin adminpassword password adminport 5050 ckamps.domain3
    Created Domain ckamps.domain3 successfully
    root@canteloupe-{}:
    Then I create an app server instance within this admin domain:
    root@canteloupe-{}: asadmin create-instance domain ckamps.domain3 sysuser ckamps --instanceport 80 instance1
    Created Instance instance1 successfully
    Note the use of the "--sysuser" option to specify the user that owns both the admin domain as well as the app server instance.
    You can either use root to define the admin domain and the instances (in which case you need to specify the sysuser option to force a non-root ownership) or you can use a non-root user to define the admin domain and app server instances.  In the latter case, specification of the sysuser is not required.
    Since my instance is defined to listen on a privileged port, I'll need to set the "run as user" in the <instance-dir>/config/init.conf file (similar to magnus.conf in Sun ONE Web Server 6) AND ensure that I start the instance as root. Once the server instance starts up as root, it will automatically switch to the run as user.
    The "User" setting below is the "run as user" specified in the admin console's "Create new instance" wizard.
    <snip of init.conf>
    NetsiteRoot /usr/appserver
    ServerID instance3
    ServerName canteloupe
    PidLog /var/appserver/domains/ckamps.domain3/instance3/logs/pid
    User ckamps
    DNS off
    </snip>
    Alternatively, you can start up the newly defined admin server and create the new app server instance through the admin console.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris

  • I cant access the root share of a windows server after upgrading to mountain lion

    Hi Guys,
    Since upgrading to mountain lion i cant access the shared drives on our windows server. For example in a windows machine if i go to run the type \\server\ i get all the visible shares available. in my previous version i was able to do the same (obviously i would authenticate with my AD account). now when i try to access those same shares i get the message below:
    "The operation cant be completed becuase the original item for "/" cant be found"
    I can however connect to the shares directly for example if i connect to server path \\server\data it works ok.
    I have verified my account details and they are ok - i have also disconnected and reconnected the connection.
    This was working fine before the upgrade. can anyone help??

    well iv just managed to get to 35 gig free (just deleting iphone backups) and im now able to get past the next screen on bootcamp.
    unfortunatly its only allowing me to create a new partition not delete the current.
    this is leading me to think the old ones master partition has become damaged and the hard drive dosent know it exists any more.
    if this is the case (please tell me im wrong though) what options do i have as i dont want to / have the money to buy another hard drive to back everything up to it with.
    thanks again

  • CentOS based linux VM running on Hyper-v : Checking root filesystem fails when kernel switches having old PV(para virtualised driver based on 2.6.32 linux kernel) to new PV(which is equivalent to linux integration component 3.4)

    hi all,
    I am running a CentOS base VM on top of Hyper-V server. I upgraded PV drivers of Hyper-V in linux kernel 2.6.32 in order to support
    Windows Server 2012, then i am hitting below issue on Windows Server 2008 when kernel switches from old PV(which is 2.6.32 based) to new PV(which is equivalent to linux integration component 3.4).i
    am hitting following filesystem check error messages :
    Setting hostname hostname:
    Checking root filesystem
    fsck.ext3/dev/hda2:
    The superblock could not be read or does not describe correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
    filesystem(and not swap or ufs or something else),then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
    e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
    : No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/hda2
    *** An error occurred during the filesystem check.
    *** Dropping you to a shell; the system will reboot
    *** When you leave the shell.
    Also, when I go to the repair filesystem mode. I found out the strange behaviour when i ran those command :
    (Repair filesytem) 1 # mount
    /dev/hda2 on / type ext3 (rw)
    proc on /proc type proc (rw)
    (Repair filesystem) 1# cat /etc/mtab

    I think for all above command there should be /dev/sda2 instead of /dev/hda2.

    Thanks for the hints. Meanwhile, I have done some more background reading on running Arch in VMWare Player. In particular I followed the guidelines in this article. So it turns out that X requires some special configuration when run from within VMWare.
    pacman -S xf86-input-vmmouse xf86-video-vmware xf86-video-vesa svga-dri
    and a vmwgfx module is supposed to be loaded. I installed tha packages and tried to load vmwgfx, but when I do lsmod I just can't see it. Then it was pointed out to me that it might be a kernel mismatch problem. The linux installed on nfsroot is 3.6.2 whereas for some reason uname -a gives me version 3.5.6.
    I've tried to rebuild initramfs with the new kernel using -k switch of mkinicpio, but it didn't help. It still boots into 3.5.6. It as if the initramfs from the client was taking precedence. So then I went back to the previous image of my VM, updated the system, made appropriate changes to mkinitcpio.conf and run mkinitcpio... and it no longer boots. mount: protocol not supported. I will post the details in my other topic.

  • Restore root filesystem problem.

    Dear All,
    when I take backup of root one mounted file system and restart the system
    then Go to failsafe in single user mode and run newfs on root filesystem.
    then go to cd /a
    then i want to restore backup of root on /a
    but showing error
    #ufsrestore ivf /dev/dsk/c0d0s6
    Error: Verify volume and initinlize maps.
    Media blocksize is 126
    Volume is not in DUMP format.
    Please provide solution....

    I have a similar problem and i still have no resolution & here it is:
    "i have a question on the Jet and the configuration is vmware can someone point me to the right direction please:
    nic
    Error Found on S10X_u5w0s_10_x86 vmware prodsau01 solaris server on prodmam3 hardware:

    do you wish to have it mounted read-write on /a? (y,n,?)
    And the disk c1 slice is available but not bootable ?? "
    Any help to debug this issue will be appreciated. I have no support from sun on vmware at this point.

  • Ufsrestore root filesystem from remote tape drive

    If disk is replaced and I want to restore root filesystem, should I be able to access a remote tape drive to do this?
    i.e when I do
    boot cdrom -s, should I be able to access the nework? Or is that not posible with root filesystem installed?

    Well, when you boot a machine into single user mode from a CD or DVD, it will not automatically configure the network, but you can do this by using normal ifconfig commands.
    Before doing the restore you will have to create a new filesystem on the disk by runnings newfs and then mount it as /a or similar .
    You can perform an ufsrestore from a remote machine by specifying the remote machines tape drive as the path to restore from, e.g.:
    ufsrestore if <user>@<remote server>:<tape device>
    for example, to do an interactive restore from a remote tape::
    ufsrestore if admin@remote-server:/dev/rmt/1
    .. one drawback with this is that ufsrestore probably rely on rsh to communicate with the remote server, so you might need to enable rsh and configure a .rhosts file for the user.
    You can probably pipe the tape over ssh as well, with something such as:
    ssh <user>@<remote-server> "dd if=/dev/rmt/1 ibs=1024" | (cd /a ; ufsrestore xf -)
    .7/M.

  • UniPack / root filesystem on E10K running SC3.4 gets full

    Hi !
    The problem is within a domain in my E10K running sun cluster 3.4. I am running a CorDaptix application which is the electricity billing system developed by SPL World Group. This is a web based application.
    My /root filesystem which sits on an internal Unipack disks 18GB on one of my domains gets full. I have moved the /opt and re-created it on an external disk. This has decreased my root filesystem but I can see that its filling up my volume again about 200MBs daily. When I check all my logs and find the files modified within the last days, I cannot find the cause.
    Please, please help

    process accounting should help clear up all the used space on the / partiton for now...
    If you make a new /var partition, I'd wager you'll find a lot less instances of / filling up afterward..
    Process accounting used to be something worthwhile if you didn't have a very busy system, but if you have a big honking database with many connections or a web server taking plenty of hits and doing subsequent system level processing (calling perl scripts and other things like that), you'll fill up the logfile system quickly.
    Teamquest probably does a lot of new processes during it's monitoring and checking of your system health, so that would also contribute to things.
    Bottom line, I agree, make a new /var partition, copy (via some methodology tar, cpio, ufsdump) from the original location to the new, and then edit the /etc/vfstab and put /var to mount on boot, and if you have the opportunity, reboot with the new /var (plus restored /var/sadm area), and you should be in good shape

  • [SOLVED] mkarchiso: ERROR: failed to detect root filesystem

    hi guys!
    i am now trying to build my own live archlinux distribution with archiso and with the command "mkarchiso"
    at the first step in installing the base when it installs linux and execute "mkinitcpio" it shows me this error:

    i continue the process with that error and in the "run" step i did this command

    and the big problem shows when i build the iso file and "dd" it to USB disk, when i choose to boot the live archlinux it tell me
    ERROR: failed to detect root filesystem
    and that you cannot log to tty
    any suggestions?

    First run it, without any modification to learn how it works. Check if works. Modify as you need. Check if works...
    Do not worry about the mkinitcpio error, because such initramfs images should not be used for boot live medium. You can see that profiles uses own mkinitcpio.conf with at least archiso hook
    Running mkarchiso directly is not the right way, at least if you do not know how things works.
