I'm trying to mount a western digital external hd to a fedora core server. Does anyone know what I put in the file system line in /etc/fstab? I tried tmpfs but I couldn't see the files i placed there when I moved to a new server. I also tried vfat but that wasn't compatible. It couldn't read ext3 file system. Does anyone know what else I could try?
View 3 Repliesi have a server has problem,
i want to copy the files of the problemed server to another one,
how can i mount the hd of the problemed server to another running server?
my server is centos 5.3
I have 2 servers connected through a private network.. I wanted to remotely mount a folder on one of the servers. However when i do it gives me permission error..
On the server
1. Iptables are stopped
2. Exportfs shows the result fine
3. entry in hosts.allow and /etc/hosts is made
4. NFS is running fine
On the client:
1. NFS shows some error
Quote:

[FAILED]
2. Have done the entry is hosts.allow
3. Stopped iptables
4. when i mount i get this error

mount: trying 10.252.5.34 prog 100005 vers 3 prot udp port 901

I currently have a VPS. I have installed cPanel/WHM + CSF Firewall.
Everything is fine and all the ports are closed except for the ones I need.
I currently have some issues I need to fix, but google isn't helping

Check /tmp is mounted as a filesystemWARNING/tmp should be mounted as a separate filesystem with the noexec,nosuid options set
I tried googling this and there was a cPanel script but I do not have permission to run it. So does anyone mind explaining it to me one step at a time?

You should consider adding ini_set to the disable_functions in the PHP configuration as this setting allows PHP scripts to override global security and performance settings for PHP scripts. Adding ini_set can break PHP scripts and commenting out any use of ini_set in such scripts is advised
I have disabled this in php.ini but I do not know why it still says that I have to fix this

mount /dev/md0 /vol
Code:

Then I unmount /dev/md0
I still see the files at /vol/*. They seem to be on /dev/sda1.
So how do I use the RAID array at /dev/md0 that I tried to mount at /vol?
The problem is that my hd is failed. Hoster setup new server, also installed the secondary drive but not mounted. So need advice how can i get my data off it?

Can we use NFS for backing up cpanel servers ?
We want to know whether is there any advantages or disadvantages of using NFS
to have cPanel backup. Will it cause the server to crash?
Not sure where to start with this one...
My Setup
1 x [VPS1] OpenVZ Based VPS, with cPanel/WHM installed and Webmin. CentOS 4.4
1 x [VPS2] OpenVZ Based VPS, with OpenVPN installed, with Webmin. CentOS 4.4
1 x [VPS3] Xen Based VPS, with Webmin. FC4
All servers are in different remote locations.
What I would like
In each of the VPS's to have a directory called "shared" in the / directory.
It would be great if I could mount "shared" in the other two VPS's and share files securely.
How would I go about setting this up, I would prefer not to use OpenVPN as one of the VPS's has a custom setup of it.
I have a VPS ( Virtuozzo ) with Centos and a server where i only have normal user access ( shared hosting ).
I need to share some files that are on the server with the VPS. Is there a way to mount the shared hosting folder at the VPS having normal user access?
I was wondering if it's possible to install sshfs at a VPS ( i can't modify the kernel ).
This is what I got from the tech support:

A few days ago, when installing TUX, I have mounted the virtual hosting directory to var/www/html/mywebsite.com (that's an empty directory I created in order for TUX to work) via:
mount --bind /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/www/html/ /var/www/html/mywebsite.com/
command.....
After figuring out that TUX has some problems I reverted everything but not this mount --bind command.. What is the reverse command for this, so everything will come back to the point which they were before?

I have tried the cPanel tool to mount, format, etc. My drive however, it has made my server crash after reboots.
I have to enter single user and remove the lines added to fstab so it will boot.
I tried using the tool again and it failed yet again, can I do it manually, and if so how.
I will have to redo the entire partition, so how do I erase everything first?
