/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts]# ./ifup ifcfg-eth0

What is the issue? anyone has any idea? How can I load network driver ?
modprobe -t net is not working.
I've been reading more and more posts about how a quality network card is important. We build all of our servers from new, quality parts but honestly we always rely on the built in NIC on the motherboard (which are brand name motherboards, but nonetheless)
How can a lesser quality NIC effect a server other than total failure of network activity? What signs should we look for and what are quality brands? My first guess is dropped packets or low throughput. I've also heard of people saying that load can go up from a bad NIC - is there any truth to that?
Im running Solaris 10 on x86 (but I think the process will be similiar to Linux since they both use ifconfig, but I may be totally wrong).
I have an onboard 10/100 ethernet port that I'm trying to get working (on a home network with w/ router at 192.168.1.1).
When I do ifconfig -a.. all thats shown is lo0 . Where the ethernet cable is plugged in, the little led light is blinking like it should, so I'm pretty sure its just a software configuration thing.
We must install Dell 1950 With Centos 5 and WHM/Cpanel
How to setting 2 onboard NIC to fail over
The second card have same IP and must start only when the first is down.
any recomendations in kvm cards? its for a generic 2u server.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was building a 1u server a month or so ago to colocate. After screwing up the purchase of the raid card (got a pci 64 or something) its been sitting next to me not doing much. I need to go ahead and find a good raid card and get this colocated,
I have literally spent hours on Newegg, Amazon and Ebay and found nothing that really jumps out at me. When people were helping with the build before, Adaptec was recommended, but the card is now deactivated on newegg so I am looking again.
I am currently using areca Raid card with Centos 5 which allows me to configure Raid 6 with SAS drives. But it is really costing a bomb not to say that the lead time in ordering the card is long. Performance wise is fantastic though. Anyone know of any cheaper alternative to areca that can support Centos 5 and Raid 6 SAS Drives?

In this chassis, I am going to be using an ASUS M2NPV-VM motherboard [url], and I'll be installing a 3ware 8006-2LP RAID card.
I just want to make sure that that RAID card will work with that motherboard, and also I want to verify that the Supermicro CSE-RR1U-X riser card is the correct model for this motherboard and RAID card.
I've got a couple of basic servers built in the supermicro mini 1U (CSE-512L-260B) chassis, but I've never had to deal with riser cards before, so I wanted to make sure everything is compatible and is going to fit correctly before I purchase them.
i have just installed esx server from vmware which as far as i know is a moded version of redhat. i just brought that lan card and put it in. when intsalling the os it seemed to pick it up straight away. and it wanted to use the tulip driver and infact on the driver cd tuplip is given. so i thought it was all well uptill i tried logging in through the browser insterface. it came up with nothing. so i did ifconfig which only showed the lo device. i then did a lsmod tulpis ind it brought up this.
vmnixmod size 3
mousedev
hid
input
usb-uhci
usbcore
but no network drive.
im not very good with linuk so im not sure what the interface is called. i tried ifconfig eth0 up but i dont know how to check if its called eth0 or somehting else. their is no gui just a bash.
i then tried netconfig. it worked fine and i restarted the box. it still dident come up.
so i thought maybe the driver wasent installed after all so i went to the cd and got the file off it and when i typed in make i got

so now im stuck. i have no idea on what to do next.
i know this isent the speciality of thsi frum but you have helped me so many times before i thought i should give you a shot at this.
Thinking of entry-level collocation for a 1u or 2u 1750 or 2850 server (but not a separate hardware firewall at this point) I'm wondering if I should equip it with a DRAC card on a separate switch port ($10 more per month for an extra switch port). However one concern: how secure is a DRAC card? It would seem to allow you to login with a standard username and strong password, but I still fear it could be brute forced since I'm not aware of a brute-force-detection mechanism that would run on the drac card itself.
Is the only way I can use a DRAC card and feel secure about it to also have a box in front of the DRAC card to lock down and monitor access to the DRAC's IP? Or am I worrying over nothing (I'm not very familiar with DRAC cards yet.)
I was wondering if anyone has had luck with 3ware 9650's in a RAID 10 to help bring down iowait?
I currently have a VPS node that see's spikes in iowait and i'd like to bring it down. I've been considering getting a 9650 in a JBOD setup (so then I don't need to reinstall the whole node) with a battery backup to enable the cache.
My two questions are:
- In JBOD, does the write cache enable at all?
- Would the write cache help bring down the iowait much?
Drive wise we have 4 x 500GB drives in a raid10 (soft for now).

There is no raid involved.
When trying to load an ovzkernel it loses support for the 3ware 8006 controller. As suggested on ovzforums, it says to load the new 3dm2 tools. I tried this but when I try to install it, it says it can't find the 3dm2 binary.

On Dell, its very "easy" to find a raid controller, and i have never been worried about this before, but with supermicro im a little confused.

I was looking at Adaptec 3405, ( adaptec.com/en-US/support/raid/sas_raid/SAS-3405/ ) but are not sure if this is the right card for this server. Is this overkill or to small a card for a 4 disk 1u server?
About cabling: On Adaptec's site they state
"Cable: one Mini SAS x4 to (4x) SATA fanout cable w/ sideband (2247000-R), 0.5 meter"
But are this cable the correct one for a server like this with backplane and everything, or should i look for a special cable? if so, anyone know what i need to order?
We've got a couple of Dell SC440's that we use for low end stuff. We need one with RAID-1 so after talking with our Dell rep we ordered a 5iR card and the corresponding SATA cables. The cables are kind of funky in that the drive end of the cable has both the SATA and power connector in one "thing". You then plug the SATA power into the back of this (it piggy backs on). Once you have done all that the cover won't fit back on as the power connectors stick about 1/2" in beyond the case.
Anyone out there have a SC440 with RAID so we can compare notes?

All is fine but the writes are very slow; I supose it's because write cache not enabled.
I have enable it and make some test and there is a lot of difference:

I'm worried about enabling it because if the server goes down I think it can cause disk corruption and loose data and maybe the OS. What do you think about that? Data is a priority!
Disks have this technology: Seagate-exclusive IRAW (Idle Read After Write) enhances data
protection by verifying—during drive idle time—that data in thedrive buffer was properly written.

Is it true that the raid don't get rebuilded? If it is like this I don't know why I'm running raid.
I made a mistake to purchase a new hosting account, and I requested the customer support to refund the money back to the original gift card. But when I use the gift card to purchase other product, it shows no enough credit.
Anyone know how long the refund money could reach the original gift card and then I could purchase other product?
Is it normal for a hosting provider to ask you to fill out a two page form to verify credit card and billing address information which you must fax or e-mail in with a photo copy of your drivers license and credit card? I've never came across this until now and was wondering if something like this was safe? This is for a dedicated server with the RackVibe (JustEdge.net) hosting provider.
