CRON Job Timing Out
i have had a problem for some time now, regarding my CRON jobs. I am trying to download a large amount of data from ebay (through their API, totally legal and aboveboard) using php, but my CRONjob times out. I have tried resetting the timeout variable, but then it exceeds the maximum filesize SO, my question: is there any way to have a script run as a CRON job, and wen it is complete, call another script?

Reboot Cron Job
VPS isn't rebooting by itself when it goes down. Anyone has any program/script that monitors heartbeat of the server? Like when it goes down, the program will automatically reboots the system. I know there's such a script out there but I forgot what it called.

Cron Job Email In DA
I've got limited knowledge in scripting so I've come to the interweb for help. Google hasn't answered any of my queries so the trusty WHT is next. I'm trying to create a script cron that will email my clients once per month with space and bandwidth useage reminders. I'd prefer not to have to set up crons in each individual account, but rather email all with tokening including |name| |bandwidth| |space| out of the allowed space & bandwidth according to the clients package.

MySQLDUMP Cron Job
setting up a new cron job. I would like to have MySQLDUMP dump my specified database(s) into a specified folder using date and time stamps in the filename. I've done some searching on this but haven't really came up with a way to do all of this at once, or if I may need to setup a cron job to rename the file after the dump has completed. I may be going about this all wrong to begin with, I'm just looking for a very simple and reliable way to backup my databases. I'm testing this on a Shared Web Host account at this time which does have SSH shell access, but I wasn't sure if this makes a difference.

Cron Job Deleted - Is Their A Log?
We are running cpanel on one of our servers. Several cron jobs were deleted from the cron panel of one acct. I have no idea of the paths to re-enter these jobs. Is their a log file on the server that will show cron job history from previous runs so I can recover the proper paths?

Cron Job And Query String
Is it possible to call a cron job with a query string appended to the file. I have no problem setting up crons in the cron tab..but i'd like the cron to fetch a url that looks something like /home/php/some-file.php?a=1 is this possible directly through the cron job? I guess an alternative is call some php file that uses curl but i was wondering if there 's a direct way.

Cron Job Not Working Properly
I have a slight problem with a cron job I have setup. I wanted to save a copy of iptables every hour to a folder, so I created a script... here it is: Code: varDate=`date +%y%m%d` varTime=`date +%H%M` filename="IPtablesBackup-$varDate-$varTime" iptables-save -c > /etc/IPtablesBackup/$filename and called is Backup-Script.sh Now if I just execute the script will in root ./Backup-Script.sh I get a new file with the correct filename and iptables info is saved ! Great ! So then I thought, how can I setup this automatically every hour. Which leads me on to my problem. I inputted "crontab -e" added this line Code: 59 * * * * /etc/IPtablesBackup/Backup-Script.sh The problem is the script is run, I know because it creates a new file with the correct time and date, however the file is empty? I have set Backup-Script.sh to 777 and owner and group are both root?

Cron Job Not Working, Restart Services
I'm having a bit of trouble with one cron job that doesn't seem to work. I have others scripts that run hourly fine. However this one does not. The script: restart_monitoring.sh Code: #!/bin/bash service iptables stop service iptables start /root/bandwidth_rules.sh /root/portforward_config.sh exit The two scripts at the end just load a lot of iptables rules back in. The cron job should run hourly (59th minute) The cron job entry Code: 59 * * * * /root/restart_monitoring.sh I have restart crond to enable the new job, still doesn't run. The job is to restart iptables, thus flushing all rules that I have running, then reloading them. I have figured out the problem to be with the "service iptables stop/start" command, it doesn't seem to like doing this...?

Any Experiences With Software-Raid 5 Vs Hardware-Raid 5? (e.g. Hetzner EQ9)
I could try the Software-RAID 5 of the EQ9 Server of Hetzner. Does anyone here has experiences, how fast a hardware raid 5 compared against the software-Raid 5 is? The i7-975 should have enough power to compute the redundnacy on the fly, so there would be a minimal impact on performance. But I have no idea. I want to run the server under ubuntu 8.04 LTS x64. On it a vitualisation like VMware the IO-Load could get really high.

Scheduled Consecutive Shell Commands Or As Cron Job
Is it possible to schedule consecutive shell commands to be run at a given time or every certain period (like every hour)? This is important for me as I want to schedule to run certain program and then input the following commands afterwards to do and complete the task, all automatically within the specified schedule. One example would be connecting to an FTP. First you'd need to input the ftp command to run the ftp program, then following that, input another commands consecutively within that session (the ftp program) to do and complete the task. I'm running KDE on CentOs4 btw. Is it even possible to do this on cron jobs?

How To Setup Software RAID-10 On Linux With /boot On RAID-1
I am in a somewhat complicated situation... I wanted to order a custom server with hardware 3Ware RAID controller but after over a month of waiting I was told the HW RAID controller, as well as any other 3Ware controller they tried, does not work with the motherboard used in the server from Fujitsu-Siemens and that they simply got a reply from FS that the controller is not certified to work with their motherboard. So although I'd prefer a HW raid, I am forced to either choose a different webhost or setup a software RAID. The problem is, I haven't done that before and am somewhat moderately...scared I have read a lot of the info about SW RAID on Linux that I could find through Google but there are some questions unanswered still. So I thought that perhaps some of the more knowledgeable WHT members could help me with this problem... The server specs will be: Core2Duo E6600 (2.4Ghz), 2GB RAM, 6-8x* 250GB SATA II HDDs, CentOS 4.4 or SuSe, DirectAdmin * I prefer 8 HDDs (or actually 9) over 6 but I am not sure if their server chassis can hold that many HDDs, I am awaiting answer from them. They don't have any other drives beside the 250GB ones so I am limited to those. The preferred SW RAID setup is to have everything in RAID 10, except for the /boot partition which has to be on RAID-1 or no RAID I believe, plus one drive as hot spare (that would be the 9th drive). I am quite sure they will not do the setup for me but will give me access to KVM over IP and a Linux image preinstalled on the first HDD so that I'll have a functional system that needs to be upgraded to RAID-10. How do I do that? The big problem I see is that LILO or GRUB can't boot from a software RAID-5/10 so I will have to mount the /boot partition elsewhere. It's probably terribly simple...if you have done it before which I have not. I have read some articles on how to setup a RAID-5/10 with mdadm (e.g. [url] ) but they usually do not talk about how to setup the boot partition. Should it be setup as a small sized (100-200MB) RAID-1 partition spread over all of the drives in the otherwise RAID-10 array? What about swap? Should I create a 4-8GB (I plan to upgrade the server RAM to 4GB in near future) RAID-1 swap partition on each of the disks or swap to a file on the main RAID-10 partitions. The second sounds simpler but what about performance? Is swapping to a file on RAID-10 array a bad idea, performance wise? Is it possible to grow a RAID-10 array in a way similar to growing a RAID-5 array with mdadm (using two extra drives instead of one of course)? mdadm doesn't actually even mention RAID-10 despite it does support it without having to create RAID-0 on top of RAID-1 pairs if the support is in kernel, from what I know.

Cron Job That Deletes Backup Files Older Than 5 Days
This is on a RHEL 4 Box. I want to create a cron job that deletes backup files that are older than 5 days. I have created a shell script (/usr/local/src/runjob.sh) that runs successfully from the SSH command line: Code: #pwd /usr/local/src #./runjob.sh Here is the script: Code: #!/bin/sh # # find /usr/local/apache/sites/*/BACKUPS/ -maxdepth 1 -atime +5 -iname 'test*.txt' -exec rm {} ; Script has 777 permissions and is owned by root. I have the following entry in crontab: Code: 10 12 * * * /bin/sh /usr/local/src/runjob.sh >/dev/null 2>&1 As shown in the cron log, the job does run, but it does not delete the files. And there are files older than 5 days in the directory that meet the find criteria.

Create A Cron Job To Clear Your /tmp Folder Automatically?
how I can create a cron job that runs every 10minutes or so to clear my /tmp folder on one of my servers? Reason I ask is, it keeps getting filled up and doesn't delete the fiels in it and stops certain scripts from running. Also, again, I need step by step instructions, such as: 1) what, where the file is I need to place the cron job in 2) what line of code would I put in that file (what does the cron job line look like for every 10min every day) 3) do I need to restart anything, and if so, what command do I run in shell?

Software To Control Cron Jobs?
Is there any software which would control cron jobs? I've a problem with cpu load where some customers are running more than enough of them at the same time. Is there any software which would be able to: If there are more than x crons running at the same time, put others in queue and execute after there are no more than x-1 are running?

Cron Job - "No Input File Specified."
I'm on paid hosting and accessing the cron jobs through a control panel. I have a php script that I'd like to run daily. I've put this script in the folder http://mysite.com/Cron/ . When I navigate to this file directly in my web-browser it runs perfectly and sends me an e-mail. When I try to set up a cron tab to execute it, though I get the following error in the cron output... Quote: Status: 404 X-Powered-By: PHP/4.4.6 Content-type: text/html No input file specified. The command I entered into the control panel was... Quote: php [url] I also tried...

Software Raid
Wondering what peoples thoughts are on software raid 1 setups. This will be for a shared server mostly serving small business websites and will probably not host too many busy sites. I'm looking to save some money on a dedicated server. I've read works just as good for mirroring but you wont see speed improvements as compared to a hardware setup.

Software RAID 1
I am setting up some servers using 2 hard drives and RAID 1 (software). If a hard drive fails, the server will continue to operate, correct? And when I replace the bad drive, it will rebuild the drive to match the good one? I understand the basics of RAID, but this is my first experience actually using it. Also, from what I am reading, it is better to use Software RAID for RAID 1 rather than Hardware (integrated motherboard type, not 3Ware, etc) due to stability? I'm sure hardware RAID 1 via a 3Ware card is definitely better, just not economical fro my application.

Have They Put HW Or Software RAID
I have recently ordered a new server and I asked for two SAS drives on RAID 1. They told me they would install their best RAID card. Well ... I have the server now .. they have put two Cheeta 15K.5 disks, but I have run the unixbench program and the performance is not very good, in fact, much worse than other servers I have with the same disks with other providers. I look at the RAID .... and it says "MegaSR - LSI Logic" .... and I am starting to think they have fitted a software raid controller rather than a proper hardware card. What do you think? Have they ripped me off?

Software RAID 1 Woes.
I have a box colocated in a datacenter, and it seems like one of my drives have failed, but I need to find out what drive I need to ask the datacenter to swap. cat'ing /proc/mdstat provides a very vague answer, but I was hoping someone could give me a better picture. The harddrives are plugged into port 0 and 1 of the supermicro motherboard. [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md0 : active raid1 sdb1[1] sda1[0] 200704 blocks [2/2] [UU] md1 : active raid1 sdb2[1] sda2[2](F) 624928384 blocks [2/1] [_U] unused devices: <none>

Hardware Or Software RAID
Some say a good RAID card like 3Ware is the answer. However the 3Ware 9690 RADI only runs at 300 MHz Others say that with quad and dual quad core systems, so much processing power is available that Linux built in "dmraid" is much faster, especially for RADI 10. Then where does the INTEL Matrix RAID on the motherboard come in? Its software too, but somehow manages to help out the Linux dmraid in some way.

RAID - Software Or Hardware
I want to mirror 2 disks and am wondering if I should go hardware or software. Hardware option seems like such a costly expense at $40/month, while a software raid is the cost of CPU load... Can anyone point out some other advantages or disadvantages of either and provide their suggestion as to which might be better to go with?
