SCSI Controler Adaptec 7899 - Driver- Linux
Mar 29, 2007
I have got a server with the following specs:
Dual Xeon 2.4 Ghz
6 Gb DDR ECC REG
1 HD 147 Gb 15K
On the board, there is an SCSI adapter which is an Adaptec 7899.
This configuration is working perfectly under Windows 2003. However, as per customer request, I have to install CentOS, RedHat or Fedora. Even Debian is OK.
However, during the install, the OS find NO hard drives and the installation is aborted.
I googled some time and it looks that there is 1 million people looking for a solution on how to install Linux on a machine with an AIC-7899.
The installer loads a driver AIC-7XXX but didn't find the device anyway.

I am having quite a challenge getting openvz to work on centos 5 with a adaptec RAID card.
The driver likes the plain jane kernel..but then...
Configuration [OpenVZ (2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1)]
***NOTICE: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.1.14.el5.028stab045.1 is not a kernel. Skipping.
There is also another issue not being able to disable Selinux.
I have tried the normal routes and even attempted disabling it in rc.sysinit..still...this "security framework" is able to load it..and cause problems.
Openvz and SeLinux don't get along..even a little bit.
So..those are the two probably seperate issues...that prevent the poor server from booting.

Within 2 servers below, what is faster than:
Server 1:
Primary hard driver: 73GB SCSI 10k (for system, database...)
Secondary hard driver: 160GB SATA (for /home/ directory)
Server 2: 2 x 160GB SATA RAID 1

Has anyone used this card?
If so, is it a decent card? Perform OK?
I know absolutely nothing about RAID cards.. trying to learn some here. I know 3ware cards have a command line, does this card? What about other adaptecs?

I've got a bunch of machines running Adaptec 2015S cards in raid-1. I cannot seem to get it to work I get the same error on every command I seem to run for example
raidutil -L all
Engine connect failed: Open
They all run CentOS with kernels such as
2.6.15.1 #1 SMP PREEMPT (They are not public facing so don't bother discussing how old the kernel is)
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
So does anyone have any suggestions on this? I've tried everything from what I can find and continue to receive this error.

Of the three raid card brands, which do you think is best and why?
I'm currently looking for a card that can do both SAS and SATA, and have four internal ports.

Which is the best platform when going with the tun/tap tunneling. Is it better to use Xen or Virutozzo for using the Tun/ tap feature.
My customer is trying to setup something like this on his vps.
I was wondering what would be the best solution either xen, virutuozzo or hypervm.
He is trying to setup something like this on his vps:
" i am asking for a vps with two nics enabled...a set of 8 ips assigned to the second nic to send, receive and pass traffic as a vpn server."

I'm having problem with my IPB forum which runs on MySQL database (hosted on linux Fedora).
Our website was unavalable for a short time, and when it came back on-line, we found we cannot create new topics/add replies, in short, we cannot add new records to ibf_posts table. However, editing existing posts works, sending private messages works, so database seems mostly OK, apart from posting. Whenever we try to post/add new topic, we get IPS Driver Error. We have tried restarting MySQL several times, but it didn't solve the problem.
Looking at the error log, we notice the following lines (but we're unsure is it about this problem):
Quote:
[Sat Nov 01 19:32:06 2008] [error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting
[Sat Nov 01 19:39:25 2008] [error] mod_fcgid: fcgid process manager died, restarting the server
[Sat Nov 01 19:39:36 2008] [warn] child process 2281 still did not exit, sending a SIGTERM
and then several hundreds lines like this:
Quote:
[Sat Nov 01 20:21:53 2008] [warn] child process 26643 still did not exit, sending a SIGTERM
...
[Sat Nov 01 20:21:56 2008] [error] child process 26643 still did not exit, sending a SIGKILL
...
[Sat Nov 01 20:21:57 2008] [error] could not make child process 26643 exit, attempting to continue anyway
...
It seems really strange that forum and database seem absolutely OK, that editing and private messages work (and Admin CP seems fine) but that it throws IPS Driver error on new posts only?

i know the subject may been talked a lot of time,
but i think those thread are too old,
and by the time pass and technology growth,
it may take difference,too.
in my feeling,i like seaget,
but some people tell me WD may be better,
if possible,could you tell me your choose or experience?
for possible,it can include the series type,
for example,WD 500G WD5000AACS...etc.

When paying for my server, I prefer to pay with PayPal. Is it normal when I want to pay with PayPal (if they except this), the hosting company also wants my CC number and CVV2 code. What's the use then of paying with PayPal.
I don't mind to identify myself with copies of driver licences, but CC is different story.

According to the documentation, Hyper-V VMs cannot boot from SCSI drives and requires an IDE drive for each virtualization. I'm new to Windows (Server 2008) and Hyper-V and planning out some hardware.
Does anyone know if it is possible to:
Set up the the server with 2 SATA Drives (Raid 1), along with 8 x Ultra320 SCSI Drives (Raid 5 or 6).
Load the OS and set up all Virtual slices on the SATA drives, so that that virtual boot sectors are on the IDE drives, but the main bulk of the clients allotted space on the SCSIs? Is there issue with that and if so, how do you manage that?

about SSD vs SCSI vs SATA HDDs?
I heard that SSD are slow in writing, but fast in reading.
is this true?
80GB Intel X25-M SSD is the model i am looking at.
Is this HDD recommended on servers? will this perform better then SCSI or SATA RAID10?
how this works, tell me more about writing
eading speeds (on SSD) etc.

currently my home comp is using a WD 7200 rpm drive, im thinking of upgrading it to raid 0 10k rpm drives, here are the drives newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16822116006 and this is the raid card, newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16816118050 and then i was looking into cables for a scsi drive but i know nothing about them, my friend showed me these cables he found provantage.com/cables-go-09476~7CBTE01N.htm but it says there scsi3 now does this matter? what is scsi 3 and can it be used for these raid cards and hdd, the cables i was lookin at newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16812193019 are 30 bucks each, now do i need to buy 2 of these for my raid 0 or what? any suggestions on what are the best scsi cables for me and best transfer rate? links would be great too.

I currently have a Dell Poweredge 2650 from a few years back, it is running...
2x Xeon 2.4ghz 512K
3GB DDR266 RAM
1x73GB SCSI
Back in the day this system cost $2000, now it's not worth close to that.
So my plans were to dump this bad boy as an SQL server, seeing it has the SCSI backplane and 3GB of RAM, and SQL usually doesn't need as much CPU as a web server.
Now my question, would it be better to use this server or would it be better to build a cheap Core 2 Duo with a RAID0 array with a few SATA drives?
Before you start going off on RAID0, it doesn't matter to me because I am using clustering/failover so data will not be lost and no downtime will be received if the array fails.
Basically what I want to know, is it worth it to keep this server and build upon it or would it be better to sell this server and look into spending an extra few hundred to build a new system with SATA RAID.
I'm going by price/performance rather than reliability as I am using failover to let you know once again .

I am looking for something like this:
[url]
To work on an HP ProLiant DL360/380. All I know is they are SCSI U320 drive bays, or that is the type of drive they take. Can anyone provide any insight on what may work? We are trying to get a more cost effective way to get more storage into a server. The largest SCSI drive I can find is 300GB for $200. You can get 2TB drives for that much these days.

Is there a way that I can check if the host provider installed the correct hardware for my server?
I had 3x Seagate 73GB 15k RPM SCSI so I wonder if there is a way to confirm that make sure they gave me the 15k but not 10k?

I'm going to use it for a massive SQL database driven site.
Was wondering if SA-SCSI 10K RPM is far away better than Raptor SATA 10K if combined with quad core processor and 8GB RAM?
