I have a cpanel/centos box with dual drives. I mounted the 2nd drive and wondering how I can go about using it as ftp space, even http space. Basically, in a sense using it as if it were a second "primary" drive so to speak.
View 1 RepliesI just got this email today, don't know how to remove unused space in that drive or what to do exacly, please help in advice.
Code:
Drive Warning: /dev/sda2 (/usr) is 81% full
Redundancy or more hard drive space, what is your vote?

------
Drive Warning: /dev/sda8 (/home) is 82% full

Tried disabling notifications in Tweak Settings to no avail.
That apparently only affects end users.
I'm getting these emails for root.
Any way to disable it as it is annoying to receive them daily.
My server is gradually running out of space as my websites expand. I have a spare second drive - is it possible to reconfigure plesk to use this second drive ? I see I can use the plesk config tool - but looking at the documentation it moves all your sites over to the new drive which I don't want to do ?

My document root for directory listings is set and in that folder I have a few other files to configure the formatting and visual effects. These are:
images(folder)
sorttable.js
style.css
index.php
These files make the root directory look very nice. If I navigate in to a subdirectory, all of the formatting and visual effects are lost and the standard text layout is shown. Is there a way I can get ALL subdirectories in the root directory to take on the visual and layout effects from the root directory?
I know it works if I manually copy each of the files to each of the subdirectories which would be fine, but the subdirectories are created dynamically and new ones are added regularly.
1- i did Os Reload with new Hard drive for "home"
2- data "backups" drive lost
3- replaced the old home drive as "/old drive"
4- " /old drive " is now the secondry drive in my server and it has the all sites usres and evry thing
5- what i need , to trasfer, copy this sites from " /old drive " to "home"
but data center said
The /olddrive/home directory contains the contents that were previously in the /home directory. You can copy files from this directory to any other directory on your server.
The command to copy files in the UNIX environment is the "cp" command.
The user directories in /olddrive/home directory contain the web page files for the users. However, simply copying the contents over will not recreate the users or domain entries in DNS/httpd. If you wish these back you will need to recreate them manually or restore them from backups.
Primary drive (centos/cpanel) is corrupt
The server is displaying these errors when I tried to do an FSCK:
Bad inode IO
ext3-fs error (device(8,3)) IO Failure
I am having a new primary installed and old primary set as 2nd drive. I need to recover the cpanel domain accounts from this 2nd drive after I mount it with the method below:
mkdir /backup
mount /dev/sdb1 /backup
However, how do I actually recover these accounts in an automated process via whm? I've done this before with the same matter (corrupt primary drive, mount as 2nd, etc) but cannot exactly remember the proper steps.
I just purchased a brand new 10K 150GB drive. How can I take an exact copy of my current drive and transfer everything over to the new drive? I think I need to create a snapshop, or mirror it somehow.
What software will do this? I was told trueimage, but its very pricy, is there anything else?
I have a dedicated box and I started getting Input/output errors today.
I tried:
# fsck
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
e2fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
/dev/hda2: recovering journal
fsck.ext3: unable to set superblock flags on /dev/hda2
then I tried:
# fsck -a -t ext3 /dev/hda2
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
/dev/hda2: recovering journal
fsck.ext3: unable to set superblock flags on /dev/hda2
My data is backed up, so was going to ask for a reimage, but is this an indication of bad hardware? Should I ask for a replacement drive? Is there anything else I should try on my own before going to the host?
im running out of space on one of my sites but i have more then plenty of data transfer.
Unfortunately my hosting packaged it weird where they provide not enough hd space. Im trying to figure out is there a way where i can use another server or hosting company that can provide space only and use their servers just for space?
i think amazon.com offered this but wasnt sure how exactly this works.
Apache 2.2.25 on windows 32
I have a ProxyPass that looks like
ProxyPass /Share Documents http://partner2/Shared Documents/
But Apache will not start with spaces. I tried
ProxyPass /Shared%20Documents http://partner2/Shared%20Documents/
Apache would start but the passthrough doesn't work. What do I need to do? I have several url's with spaces.
which case is more preferred: a shared web hosting service with unlimited space/bandwidth, or a dedicated one with limited space/bandwidth?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a Win2K3 server which has 2 hard drives. I was considering backup options and I thought that I might try mirroring Drive A ==> Drive B. I would think that, then, if Drive A has a hardware failure, I could simply switch Drive B into the Primary slot (A) and the server would continue to hum along as nothing has happened. This would reduce the downtime, hopefully.
I have 3 questions.
1. Is this idea practical (will it work)?
2. What is a good software program to use fto handle the mirroring?
3. Any considerations, warnings, technical advice in regard to this method?

Now iam useing 320Gig SATA harddrive as my primary hard drive,i dont use 2rd harddrive,iam haveing pure download site,in TOP command 4.5%wa is this bit high? or can i add 2rd harddisk and move some data to there to reduce wa,but my load of the server is fine or any way to reduce wa?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am running a Fedora box with cPanel...
The hard drive has a capacity of 36 gigs and there's currently 18 GIGs of data on it.
When I do "df -h", it indicates that / has 85% of it's capacity in use. When I run "df -hi" it shows that / has 58% of it's inodes in use.
Is there anything I can do to increase /'s capacity? Can I free up some inodes? All that / contains are folders.
Just got this server setup, getting some smart errors. Here's a copy of the trouble ticket I posted to the host, they said "If you read through the documentation for smartd you will find that from the results you pasted, your hard disk passed every test. We can give you another hard disk if you want but we will have to charge you 3 credits for the reinstall of the operating system." I could be wrong, maybe everything's fine, but the fact that there are unreadable sectors reported has me a little worried.

This is a little samba guide from my own experiences of how to map a network drive under windows 2000 to a Linux server. I am not technical expert and this guide is the result from my trail and error.
What's Samba?
Samba allows Linux computers to share files and printers across a network connection. By using its SMB protocol, your Linux box can appear in Windows Network Neighborhood or My Network Places just like any other windows machine. You can share files this way, as well as printers. By using samba on my home network, for example, my Windows machines have access to a printer directly hooked up to my Linux box, and my Linux box has access to a printer directly hooked up to one of my Windows machines. In addition, everyone can access everyone else's shared files. You can see how samba can be very useful if you have a network of both Windows as well as Linux machines.
My OSs
Windows 2000
RHEL 3 (Redhat Enterprise Linus)
My goal
Map a network drive to Linux servers, so that I can access the Linux files under windows 2000.
Installation
Most Linux should have Samba already installed. But if it hasn't install, you can find at in http://rpmfind.net or using up2date command "up2date -i samba". You can also get it at http://www.samba.org
Then you can install it by tying the following Command:
Install:
rpm -i samba.rpm
Upgrade:
rpm -U samba.rpm
Configuration
Samba conf file is located at /etc/samba/smb.conf, allows you to specify which resources on the Linux machine you wish to share and who they can be accessed by.
Samba provide a full version conf if it's fresh install. But most of the times, we don't really need all of these options. So I provide my own conf here, which is rather simple, but it makes things work.
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = LinuxBOX
hosts allow = your_windows_machine_IP
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
[Downloads]
comment = Downloads
path = /path_to_your_sharefolder
browseable = yes
writable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
[homes]
comment = My Home Directory
browseable = yes
writable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
[printers]
path = /var/spool/samba
public = yes
guest ok = yes
printable = yes
browseable = yes
writable = yes
read only = no
Just replace workgroup to your windows workgroup name, your_windows_machine_IP and /path_to_your_sharefolder. If you don't need printers sharing, you don't need to have printer section.
Setup Samba Users
Since we're using user level security, we need to setup samba users. This can be easily done by using Webmin. You can go to Server --> Samba --> Convert Unix users to Samba users, you can just covert all your existing Linux users and set them password under the icon "Edit Samba users and passwords" later.
If you don't use webmin, you can also type the following command:
cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd.sh > /etc/samba/smbpasswd
smbpasswd username
Replace username with each of your user's usernames. You will then be prompted to enter a password for this user account.
Samba Service
Now, it's time to start your samba server:
service smb start
service smb stop
service smb restart
Once the computer is restarted or shutdown, the samba service won't start up again in next boot up. I use webmin to make it startup at boot time.
Windows 2000 Configuration
1. Under windows 2000, you can got to windows explorer --> Tools --> map a network drive
2. select drive letter
3. enter the path (e.g. your_server_ipDownloads)
4. click connect using different user name
5. enter your samba usernaem and password that you just set
6. You can connect to your Linux machine now!
This method work for me. If there is any correction or improvements, please let me know.
I'm a little familiar with Linux, but I need help setting up a second drive that is in the server I'm leasing from Layered Technologies. It's a self-managed server so they won't even TELL me how to do it.
I need to format the drive and mount it as /backup so I can setup WHM/Cpanel to use it for backups.
What commands do I need to type to format the drive with the right kind of partition and mount it as /backup?
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?
