NICE, I want your server!!! :p

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Ok, I wanted to respond to one thing.

Only 10% free memory is good?:hammer:

I don't think it's the source of "all my problems" since I don't have any problems. Everything is working just fine. BTW I have 256M ram.

The fsck had problems getting memory after allocating the rest of the other 90% of ram for the i-node cache. This happened on the degraded RAID. It managed to use swap space and complete the fsck.

I'll try to "fix" the good raid5 after it is rebuilt and see if this memory "problem" comes back.

As far as I can tell, everything is working just fine. :nod:

One other thing.

I can't find the setting to tell the snap to automatically startup after a power failure. Can someone point me to this. Thanks!

Also, I had a problem shutting down the other night. I got the system light flashing 3 times (indicating shutdown) but I waited 10 minutes, and finally pulled the plug. The web interface was unavailable, and the disk light rarely ever flashed. I'm not worried about it, but it was strange. Has anyone else had this happen?

The power on after power loss should be under Server Settings in the web interface.

As far as the shutdown problem. It's probably one of those one-time things.

Edit: This is a 4000. right? What size drives you sporting again?

4000 with 4 320bg drives ina RAID5

Where under server setting? Specifically does anyone know?

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Give me a 4000 and i'll tell you :D

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Well if it cant auto poweron, I'll probably be selling it. Its useless without it.:confused:

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

I"LL TAKE IT< how much? :) email me

hallis@gmail.com

I'll check my server when i get home in a little bit to see exactly where that option is.

There is NO Auto Start on any Snap OS models, that I'm aware of.

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

You're right David, I had thought he was revering to a setting that dictated what to do after power loss, weather to restart, stay off, or "last status" type of thing. I was sure i saw something like that but I cannot remember where.

In any case. looks like his server is useless to him. I wouldnt mind picking it up from him.

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

There is your 4000 Shane! ;)


Is it just me, or should those errors I saw in there where it did not allocate some sectors not be happening?

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

It's just you

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Doesnt appear like he's really going to sell it. I PM'd him yesterday and asked him to shoot me a price and he didnt reply back.

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Im sure there'd be a hardware mod to do a power always on....

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

similar to jumpering the 2 pins on the ATX motherboard connector to get the PSU to power up by itself.

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Not on the these units. You have to hold the power button it for 5-10 sec to start them up, and the same sequence powers them off. You could make a bracket to hold a solonid valve with a timer. But thats a lot of work.

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

Naaaaa, a simple 555 timer circuit and a relay, SCR, or whatever... Very simple circuit....

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

All of my ups units are sized to carry the equipment for 30-45 minutes. Which should be more than enough time. Even when they do the rolling black outs. I'm more concern on shutting them down cleanly.

Not saying make a simple timer and Solonid to push the button would not work. It's just alot of trouble for simple function.

Re: Rebuild error FSCK fatal error = 8
 

I don't think he's talking about using a solenoid...just a simple timer and a relay to electrically complete the same circuit as pushing the power button would do.

I'm with you on the UPS thing....I have a matrix UPS 5000 in the basement...maybe a little overkill, but I got it for free :) It holds my equipment for hours.

I try to test mine every couple of months so I know if my battereis are getting old. I had to replace them in one of mine last year. It went from 45 min to 5.
