[solved] kernel configuration for clarkdale server

Update: I guess since the arch kernel config works there's really nothing to improve.
Hey everyone,
i'm about to compile a kernel for a server with intel clarkdale hardware, intel i3-530.
Up to now i only compiled kernels for my consumer laptop.
1) Is there any option in particular i should pay attention to when compiling a kernel for a server system?
And regarding the i3-530:
2) Should i just pick x86 generic cpu support or something else?
3) Are there any patches right now to improve support for clarkdale?
Thanks,
demian
P.S.: I guess i should choose 2.6.33-rc7 since real clarkdale support is supposed to come with 2.6.33? Usually i just pick the latest stable version.

thanks for your rapid response and i googled about it, but unfortunatelly i dont have a gigLan in the lab but usually all file transfered exceed 5GB of size.
Would the scheduler have a significant impact on performance? The servers are used individually (not sharing load like in a bewoulf cluster)
The disk I/O operations are mostly about writes into the output files (a few number of bytes per write), would reiserfs be superior to ext3 ?
PS.: i'm feeling really stupid for not reading more about the kernel26-lts for it has all the major options i was thinking about.

[solved] Kernel configuration for Heavy Calculations Servers

Hello all,
I've been using Arch on half of the dual xeon workstations of the research lab i work to (these are the only ones under my supervision) and so far they have been continuously hailed for their greater performance compared to the other machines (same configuration) running fedora.
I did some minor tweaks on makepkg.conf (and using sugested compilation flags of the software i use) and on the bios to improve memory latency but i suppose i could squeeze even more juice from those boxes if i choose the right kernel options.
Finally my questions are:
- regarding the kernel, what options could i use to improve performance (i suppose using a home-pc kernel configuration is not the best option)?
- regarding the arch linux, what else can i do?
Usage:
- only to perform molecular modeling calculations (both molecular dynamics and quantum dynamics )
- data transfer using "scp"

Problem in setting up XCM Configuration for Local Server

Hi
I have installed Local J2ee engine on my computer and have deployed E Commerce B2B B2C sca packages.
I am trying to complete the XCM configuration for my Local Engine. For below 4 links, I have done the configuration, creation of JCO, Shop, etc is done and have tested the JCO, the test is successful. JCOs are pointing to ECC 6.0 which is development server and on development server the XCM configuration is working fine.
http://<host>:<port>/b2b/admin/xcm/init.do
http://<host>:<port>/b2c/admin/xcm/init.do
http://<host>:<port>/isauseradm/admin/xcm/init.do
http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/admin/xcm/init.do
But below 2 links are not working and I am getting "Page can not be displayed" error.
http://<host>:<port>/isauseradm/init.do
http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/init.do
I need to created 2 shops in http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/init.do but since the page is not displaying I am not able to proceed and hence when I try to login to b2b b2c application
http://<host>:<port>/b2b/init.do and http://<host>:<port>/b2c/ init.do , I am getting an error
"The shoplist read from buffer is empty",
I think this error can be resolved by creating 2 shops in http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/init.do, but
http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/init.do itself in not displaying.
Please can you help.
Thanks

Hi
I checked the mentioned Patch Levels, everything seems to be fine.
After I did few changes in JCOs and checked the XCM configuration throughly shopadmin URL (http://<host>:<port>/shopadmin/shopadmin/init.do) has started working.
Now I have maintained 2 shops and can see the B2B and B2C web portals fine.
But as soon as I select any material, it is giving error saying error in XCM configuration related to IPC.
could you pleaase help me out with this?
Also, as soon as I click on the B2B Login link, it dumps.
And useradmin URL http://<host>:<port>/isauseradm/useradmin/init.do is still giving "Page can not be displayed",
These problems are related to XCM configuration, but not sure where exactly and which configuration is missing. please can you suggest ? Any XCM configuration related document will also be helpful.

Neha

[SOLVED] Kernel panic for an unknown reason

[Solved] Steps done to solve it:
0. Panic because I couldn't play starcraft2 (this step is sooo important! ;)
1. Updated my mirrorlist.
2. Forced a refresh on the package list from the new mirrorlist. "pacman -Syy"
3. Downgraded the kernel.
4. Deleted the latest kernel package from the pacman cache.
5. Updated the system. (pacman -Syu)
6. Thanked lilsirecho for helping out!
7. Profit
Hi all
I just did a "pacman -Syu" this afternoon and after that I'm getting kernel panics for unknown reasons.
edit: I had kernel 3.0.4 befure syu and I have kernel 3.0.7 now. I tried downgrading wine and the kernel with no success.
It first happened when I tried to run StarCraft2 with wine. I even created a post looking for help because of that.
Later on I tested another game, just in case, and it crashed too.
Looks like a wine problem, right? Or even a graphics driver problem.
That's what I thought too. But then I tried to update with "yaourt -Syu --aur" and in the first package compression it freezed once again. And it does fail everytime I try to update with yaourt during the compression phase.
What do this situations have in common?
My opinion is that they all require a lot of resources. StarCraft 2 puts my PC at 100% almost all the time. The other game is pretty old, but it freezed during an "environment loading" phase, right when the map was loading. The compression phase of yaourt also consumes a lot of resources.
This is my view of this problem, but I could be completely wrong.
What I need is help finding what is the real source of this kernel panics. I don't know where to look for the logs or the error reports when a kernel panic occurs.
I hope someone can help me trace the problem somehow. I think I'm lost
ty in advance.
cheers!

Possibly caused by a mirror download.
Perhaps you need to revert kernel and insure you have the latest mirrorlist and then syu again.
When I saw your response I thought: "Why should that be true? I downgraded the kernel with no success. Doesn't make much sense".
But then I did what you said:
Downgraded the kernel back to 3.0.4.
Moved the latest mirrorlist.pacnew I had to be the mirrorlist in use.
Then did a "pacman -Syyu".
And, miraculously, it works fine now.
How in the world did you know that could be the reason? It would have been the last possibility I would have thought about, no doubt about that
Thank you very much lilsirecho. Your post really helped me.
Not gonna mark this as SOLVED yet. Yesterday I marked my other thread as solved too soon and I regretted my decision.
I will leave a 1week time-frame to be 100% sure that it is fixed, just in case.

[Solved] kernel configuration

Hi. I want to compile a custom kernel for my laptop. I want to build in kernel my required modules and not compile the modules i do not need(to speed up compilation times ).
I want to ask what method did you used(the one who made this) to generate a .config file that is tuned for your computer.(I tried to build into the kernel the modules listed by lsmod and remove the other modules but not all modules listed by lsmod are in the .config, ) I realy do not want to compile unneeded drivers as modules because on my machine it takes a lot of time , more then 2 hours to build a kernel
Thx for you reading ths

Hwdetect, lspci, and some hunting around /sys can also help. Issues about not finding config options for lsmod output may be just due to naming; modinfo and modprobe -l can help with, that but you may need to go down to the individual Makefiles to get the exact config option (easier to just google methinks).
cheers,

Here's a nice script that I just came across. I haven't used it but it's seems like a great way to automagically trim your unused modules from your config: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/18/203

Minimum configuration for osx server?

I am getting a MacBook to add to an all-windows environment and want to use time capsule for backup. in addition, I'd like to run iTunes on a system so I was thinking about hitting eBay for a used mini that would be used for backup and media streaming. What is the minimum specs from a memory and CPU standpoint should I look for? Currently I have a windows server and NAS and have ~20 years of tech experience, but all on the windows, netware and x86 side.

Mac OS X supports up to 10 Users for File Sharing, so if all you need is File Sharing, the complexity of Server is not needed.
If you have another reason for requiring Server, its requirements are similar to Mac OS X of a similar version. Server is an I/O problem, so fast drives are needed, and a little bit more RAM than a "regular" desktop system. In Mavericks, running Server on a Mac used as a regular workstation is NOT recommended.

FPN configured for message server port

Hello,
I would like to configure my Consumer Portal to connect to my Producer on port :8101 (the default message server port of the Producer). However, each time I try with this conifguration FPN breaks and nothing works - can't browse the PCD or see remote roles via Identity Management (when I switch the config back to point to port :50000 in the Producer object on the Consumer it works fine again). I'm not using a SAP web dispatcher between the two portals but Producer portal is indeed listening on port :8101 since I can hit it directly. Is this a limitation of FPN?
My http trace shows an ABORT message when trying to connect with the :8101 configuration.
The 8101 port is necessary to be configured in order to leverage our clustered load balanced environment which has the 8101 message server port listening and redirecting to a cluster of servers.
Patrick

When using Remote Delta Links one can configure the SAP Message Server's RMI-P4 port (3901 by default) for RMI-P4 communication.
For the HTTP load balancing you cannot configure it to point to the HTTP port of SAP Message Server (8101 by default) only the application server's HTTP port on the Central Instance (e.g. 50000) can be used.
But don't bother yourselves with this, because SAP recommends using SAP Webdispatcher for HTTP load balancing in FPN scenario, so don't use SAP Message Server directly for HTTP load balancing in the FPN connection setup!

Services configuration for sql server 2008r2 in a Windows Cluster

Hello,
We have a Windows Server 2008 Cluster with Sql Server 2008r2 installed on node 2; when node 2 fails (we don't still know why, it's a 'bluescreen' long history), the service goes from node2 to node1, but sometimes the services are not automatically activated.
What is the theoretical startup settings for sql services (for the sql and the agent), manual, disabled, automatic... ?
Also, sometimes, the service for the sql server in node2 stops, but we don't know why, and we are not able to see any significant information on the event viewer. How can we trace why Sql Server stopped ?
Thanks !

>What is the theoretical startup settings for sql services
Manual. The cluster will start them.
>How can we trace why Sql Server stopped ?
Look in the SQL Server Log.

[Solved] Kernel params for suspend - overheating(?)

I had long since given up on getting my Lenovo S10-3 to suspend - or should I say resume from suspend.
But with all the kernel updates I figured it might be time to give it another shot. The traditional methods had the traditional failings, but I found a new suggestion on the Lenovo S10 page of the arch wiki to add these three kernel parameters
hpet=disable highres=off nohz=off
I had tried the first previously, but not all three. I gave it a shot with all three and suspend and resume work perfectly.
I quickly noticed a disturbing side effect though. My netbook got notably hotter; I didn't take any sensor data, but I could feel how hot it was getting. The cpu fan remained on high continuously at idle, where without those three kernel parameters the fan almost never has to run.
I removed and replaced the parameters a few times to verify that this was the cause. Every time they were on the kernel line I had the fan/heat problems; everytime they weren't these problems didn't exist, but I couldn't resume from suspend.
Has anyone had similar issues or know of any way to get the suspend/resume benefit of these parameters without the (seemingly dangerous) side effect?
Google has not helped much on learning about these parameters. I found dozens of pages that limit their explanation to saying that "nohz=off" turns off nohz. Well thats f^%#ing helpful *sarcasm*.

Undoubtedly true. But I've seen them on many wiki's and forums for various distros. I have no delusion that it is good advice, but it is a technique that many are using. I'd be surprised if anyone used it if they got results like I did. Right from powering up I had a "WTF is wrong with my computer" reaction.
But that does answer my question. I'll still try the vanilla kernel tomorrow just in case, as I do still have it installed, but for now I'll put suspend back on the back-burner until I have time to look for better solutions. Working on a quick boot time has made suspending a low priority, but as it's the one thing on this machine that isn't working right I'm like a moth to a flame: "must fix irrelevant problem".
Thanks again for the insight.
UPDATE: Using the vanilla kernel makes no difference: the parameters needed for suspend cause a nasty side effect.

Kernel Configuration for Manuel IP Rejection by Iptables

I'm out to use manual iptables since ufw takes a damn 5 secs to load with just basic drop configurations. I'm almost done and stuck at the point of wiki where you block the incoming ssh connections which repeats itself and I guess iptables gives an error as `iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.` after the command of `iptables -A IN_SSH -m recent --name sshbf --rttl --rcheck --hitcount 3 --seconds 10 -j DROP`.
Do I need a kernel parameter or something? What's now?

Reboot was the answer. Sorry.

Windows Server 2012 High Memory Utilization(Three Hyper-V Instance Configure in this Server For Lync)

Hello There,
Issue: High Memory Utilization in Below Scenario. Pl. See the below configuration of Win 12 Server
Pl. see for committed memory bytes . m little bit confused that about committed memory
OS: Windows Server 2012
Memory: Total 24 GB Free:1.3 GB Committed:27.6 GB
App Configure: Three Hyper V Instances Configure For Lync Server 2013
Pls provide me solution on this issue

Virtual memory system. Committed memory is the physical memory for which space has been reserved in the disk paging file. So, you are paging, which is quite common in virtual memory systems.
On a completely different topic. Lync is an application that works best on real cores. Most systems are configured by default to use hyperthreading. Hyperthreading increases the logical processor count on a system and logical processors
are treated equally. Since a hyperthread 'core' (logical processor) performs at a small fraction of a real core (logical processor), if you are running VMs that work best with real cores, it is best to change your BIOS on the Hyper-V host to disable
hyperthreading, sometimes called simultaneous multithreading (SMT).

CSS Load balancing for Exchange Server

Hi,
I have CSS configured in single arm and I have multiple servers configured for load balancing and it is working fine but when I am configuring Exchange server for load balancing I am facing problem and applications and printer/scanners are not able to send the email through the Virtual IP address configured for exchaneg server.
But if we configured the real server IP in the printer/scanners they are able to send the email. While checking the logs on the exchange server, it is showing that request for the email so coming from the Exchange VIP configured in the CSS.
I can telnet on port 25 on the VIP address (192.168.200.237). But unable to send the email through this VIP.
Below is the configuration

I think this is related to single arm modle or some wrong configuration for the NAT.

Updated PKGBUILD for vmware-server-modules 2.0.2

Hi.
I have updated the PKGBUILD for the vmware-server-modules and added patches for kernel 2.6.35 and 2.6.36.
The package is currently marked as an orphan, so I'll have to adopt it do upload the changes, right?
Could someone please take a look at this, and say if it is good enough.
I haven't really made any changes other than adding patches for kernel 2.6.35 and 2.6.36, but since there are some 'not so positive comments' following this package in AUR maybe there is more that should be done?
It works on my x86_64 2.6.36-arch install.

i don'T think that there will ever be a PKGBUILD for VMWare, because it's commercial software... but i posted alot of hints in the "Package Configuration Problems" Forum...
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … highlight=
nearly each posible problem is described there... if u still have problems, post ur errors and anything u got about it there, and i try to help u.....
