We have Bonding and Multpathing setup on a HP Proliant 580 system using

If we break the bonding the iscsi multipathing
will work. The disks attach and the multipathing works great. If we have
both configured iscsi multpathing doesn't work. Were not sure
what's going
on. Any solutions? Basically we can't have both configured at the
same
time and thats what we want.,

If you use the same interfaces for both iscsi and regular
network-traffic I would simply use only bonding. If you use dedicated
interfaces for iscsi, multipathing may be more interesting. Can you
describe why you want ot use both at the same time?

Hi Mark,

you can try the "Red Hat Network Satellite" Server or Spacewalk.

Hopefully this is not a faq.
I have a few RH4 servers at my place of work (AS and ES) and I am
struggling with how and when to update them.
Our general ROT is to keep Prod and Test servers at the same patch level.
We only have a few servers with more to come so it is not a massive amount of
servers I am talking about but I still some process setup.
So normally I would run the up2date command to update my Test server one
weekend during our Scheduled Maintenance window and then a month later during
our next maintenance window I would apply the same changes to Prod. However
within that period of time new update or fixes may(will) have been released
which means my Prod server will now be applying newer (and untested in my
environment) fixes.
Secondly the way it is setup now is each server has to download it's
updates over the internet which means each server has to go through the same
process.
I have a pretty brief KB article talking about 'using up2date locally,
disconnected from the network' where I edit the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources
file and create a directory to store locally copied rpms.
I imagine I could use the up2date -d command to just download specific
packages but I don't know if I could download them all that way?
I guess I could download the latest ISO's can run some cmd to unload
the packages into a directory which would get me to a specific update level but
how do I apply updates to it as they come out and how do I point my other
servers to it?
I guess if I did get some configuration working like that then I'd
also have to duplicate that for each version like 32-bit ES and 64-bit AS.

So I'd like to know.
1. How do other people manage this?
2. How to setup a local repository properly so my servers can access that
instead of going to the web.
3. I imagine there are some tools available for larger organizations.

TIA, MJ

Hi all,

I would like to daily logrotate the squid log files at everyday at
00:00(midnight) at some RHEL 5.x systems. I havent used cron things
for a long time so i forgot all about it. Also i have the
logrotate.conf and /etc/logrotate.d/squid file.

i have tried to add a /usr../sbin/rotate -k thing as a cron job but it
seem to be unsuccessfull. Googling makes some mind mixing samples
etc. also using crontab -e command brings an empty file, other than
the one i find crontab.

So is there someone who will shortly explain the cron related files
and usage , also making the squid rotate its daily logs easily. Most
of the resources (including books) makes confusing the minds at these
simple subjects. Couldnt see a step by step guide.

Regards

We have two RedHat 5.3 systems on which we need to install ENVI, a
mapping graphics program.

ENVI needs libXp.so.6 which is included in the old

XFree86-libs-4.3.0-128.EL.x86_64.rpm
XFree86-libs-data-4.3.0-128.EL.x86_64.rpm

packages.

When we install these packages on the RH 5.3 systems, the console on
the systems goes totally blank. On reboot we get a solid blue screen.

We need a work around for the RH system or from ITT for ENVI.

Thank you for any suggestions.

First recommendation would be to contact RH support for their
suggestions on this.

Second thing that comes to mind is that probably the above package is
stepping on the "real" libXp.so.6? You might be able to extract the
RPM to /opt instead and tell your application to look for its libraries
under that hierarchy instead.
