Suse 10.1 and ZENworks Linux Management compatibility
by Jan Steinkuehler (AC/EDD) 29 Jun '06

29 Jun '06

Hi, With the supplied ZMD tools I was unable to connect to a ZENworks 7 server: host1-eth0:~ # rug sa https://server Waking up ZMD...Done ERROR: Could not add 'https://server': No suitable service types could be found I suppose this happens because Suse 10.1 RC3 isn't listed in https://server/zenworks-registration/ostargets.xml (and not supported at all) As the ZMD tools are now part of the default install of Suse 10.1 I suppose it's planned to support 10.1 in later releases of Zenworks? Can anyone confirm this? -- Jan Steinkuehler Ericsson Research, Corporate Unit Ericsson GmbH, Eurolab EDD/XR/N Ericsson Allee 1 D-52134 Herzogenrath jan.steinkuehler(a)ericsson.com

[opensuse-factory] FSH: mysql & tftp
by Hans Witvliet 27 Jun '06

27 Jun '06

Just came across a message about mysql: <snip> Important: Don't forget to _backup_ your /var/lib/mysql directory before testing! <snip> The warning reminded me that by default, the mysql-data resided under /var/lib/mysql/ Which makes me wonder, according to the FSH, data belonging to servers/services should reside under /srv, just like www, ftp, tftp.... Some releases ago, apache default doc-root moved from /var/.. or /home/www to the place where it should be: /srv Why has this not been done yet for mysql and tftp?

[opensuse-factory] [Bug 169636] eth devices renamed
by Hans Witvliet 27 Jun '06

27 Jun '06

Hi, Doing some more regression tests, I was looking at some "old" problems. What is the purpose of this feature? I mean why should the kernel decide to start renaming eth-devices in the first place? I mean, if you have three (pseudo) ethernet devices, all with UNIQUE-mac address, on what ground is the kernel doing such drastic action... Hans Apr 21 16:02:42 ldap1 kernel: eth0 renamed to eth9 Apr 21 16:02:42 ldap1 kernel: eth1 renamed to eth10 Apr 21 16:02:42 ldap1 kernel: eth2 renamed to eth11 -- pgp-id: 926EBB12 pgp-fingerprint: BE97 1CBF FAC4 236C 4A73 F76E EDFC D032 926E BB12 Registered linux user: 75761 (http://counter.li.org) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] mysql changes -- need testers
by Michal Marek 23 Jun '06

23 Jun '06

Hi, I've updated the mysql package [1] and changed the init script a bit (it uses the new mysql_upgrade command now [2]). I would appreciate if you could test it, esp. the update case. Atm the init script is quite verbose, this will probably change before 10.2. I've created a mysql-5.0.22 package in the buildservice, building for factory, 10.1 and 10.0 [3]. See http://software.opensuse.org/download/home:/michal-m:/mysql/ Important: Don't forget to _backup_ your /var/lib/mysql directory before testing! [1] http://lists.opensuse.org/archive/opensuse-commit/2006-Jun/0744.html [2] http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mysql-upgrade.html [3] You will have problems with mysql-shared on 10.0 as the library is not binary compatible. I suggest manually updating just the mysql (plus mysql-Max if you use it) and mysql-client packages on 10.0. Thanks in advance!

[opensuse-factory] You working style
by jdd 19 Jun '06

19 Jun '06

10.1 I tried to use YOU to install ordinary software. this works without problem. we have now the same menus in YOU than in software install (yast). _but_ * when installing, Yast/you always speaks about "patches" beeing installed in any message/help window, even when no patche are installed but software * it starts with the patches windows. I'm still unable to know if there are new updates only looking at the window. so I must clic on "accept" to know. but after installing all the patches, it closes when the software update module asks to know is one wans to install more, wich is often the case, so one must restart the module and wait again. * if one install a software by YOU, before having installed patches, the patches are not installed in the same session. Usually one can select software by any mean, at the end all the selection is installed. Here it seems that the patches selection and the software selection are separated. all this is minor and probably already known, the reason why I ask here. is this worths filling a bug report? thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

Any one else using HP DL360 or Dl380 ? last week i found out that current (10.1) release had an version (5.33) of smartmontools, which works on dl320. but not on larger iron. I came across a patch : http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-cvs-commits/2006-May/msg00581.html It is intended for tool version 5.36 and deals with the cciss driver. For correct for me (x86_64), so i added a enhancement request #186013 Hans -- pgp-id: 926EBB12 pgp-fingerprint: BE97 1CBF FAC4 236C 4A73 F76E EDFC D032 926E BB12 Registered linux user: 75761 (http://counter.li.org) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-factory] 'Offline' update sources are not refreshed for ZYPP
by Jürgen Mell 18 Jun '06

18 Jun '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have a strange problem here: I have several machines running SUSE 10.1 here so I am rsync-ing the patches from one of the mirror servers to a local directory on my server here. This local directory is set up as an installation source in YaST (type YUM) and 'Update' is set to 'ON'. Now, when fresh patches arrive, they wil not be recognized. Neither restarting the ZMD service nor using 'Refresh' from the software update applet nor rebooting the machines helps. Only if I remove the installation source in YAST and add it back again, the new patches are detected. The same happens, if there are new versions of non-patches available (eg. from Packman). Selecting the package and function 'Update' in YaST does not work, as it still shows only the old version available. Is this intended behaviour or should a file a bug report? All current patches for the packet management system are applied.
