@scottalanmiller hi again....i guess the nfs drive is unmount from the server, because no file record on Nas after the 2016/07/28.....nothing changed on settings.....but a few server shutdown for hardware maintenance.....how can i fix it again ?

Try the mount command again. It might mount right up. If the NFS server has restarted, it would disconnect.

Bug found, scheduled for release in 4.15

No, there is nothing like that. The filesystem is just not there. It would warn you, though, so you would know not to be trying to save to something that doesn't exist.

It is not uncommon to only have servers approved to access the storage listed. So many shops will go in and add a server one by one to enable access. If your servers almost never change, this works pretty well and is extremely secure. You can do this in the firewall too, for even more security. But if you are using DevOps and creating and destroying VMs regularly you will want to automate this in some fashion.

Did you not have somewhere to jump off of?

XS/XO/XOA is all great, but seriously the thread count is stupid. The knowledge is lost in all the noise.

@DustinB3403 Thanks for your help! NFS is case sententive, it is mounted now! 😄

Everything outside of the Windows and DOS worlds is case sensitive. SMB, NFS, URLs, file names, passwords, usernames, everything.

Thats what bugs me about Linux ... I hate case sensitive things.

I'm the opposite, I can't stand that DOS can't tell two characters apart and has "close enough" syntax so that people become sloppy and begin to lose the concept of congruency. I remember dealing with a bunch of students and getting them to understand things like "This", "this" and "t h I s" were not congruent was a real problem. Windows teachers users that exact doesn't mean exact, not always.

I think that is why I like cisco's ios software... i don't have to type the full command... just enough to distinguish it from the other commands available.... I see the benefits of case sensitive, it just will take me a bit to get used to using it as I learn Linux.

@scottalanmiller You should also include cloud-init

Damn you NFS-Common!!

That was it.

All working!

Good to hear!

@Dashrender Okay let's retake a clean example: one VM in a SR, with one 4GB VDI:

# lvscan inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/MGT' [4.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e' [4.02 GiB] inherit

After first snapshot:

# lvscan inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/MGT' [4.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-38e2156f-da74-4edb-ac83-56fda54cfe55' [1.75 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e' [4.02 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-f18856a5-039b-4d84-bf6c-a259d0f49a9e' [8.00 MiB] inherit

After second snapshot:

# lvscan inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/MGT' [4.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-38e2156f-da74-4edb-ac83-56fda54cfe55' [1.75 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-f18856a5-039b-4d84-bf6c-a259d0f49a9e' [8.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e' [4.02 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-68408f33-5a69-4b3b-afdd-a2cfabcad9ba' [8.00 MiB] inherit

As you can see, we got a second 8 MiB logical volume, nothing more (base parent and active VDI doesn't change).

Let's remove the latest snapshot:

# lvscan inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/MGT' [4.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-38e2156f-da74-4edb-ac83-56fda54cfe55' [1.75 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-f18856a5-039b-4d84-bf6c-a259d0f49a9e' [8.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e' [4.02 GiB] inherit

It removes the previously created volume, as expected. Now, let's remove the initial snapshot. Durin few seconds, we'll have this:

lvscan inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/MGT' [4.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-38e2156f-da74-4edb-ac83-56fda54cfe55' [1.75 GiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e' [8.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/leaf_770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e_38e2156f-da74-4edb-ac83-56fda54cfe55' [4.00 MiB] inherit

But it will be automatically "garbage collected" when the system will see than the chain doesn't have any snapshot in it (after few seconds in this case):

# lvscan inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/MGT' [4.00 MiB] inherit inactive '/dev/VG_XenStorage-e27c48de-509f-3fec-d627-7f348062ab1a/VHD-770ceeac-e97e-4e05-b9c5-892b97b9d16e' [4.02 GiB] inherit

We are back to the initial situation.

Where DNS != DNS

That was CONFUSING

I knew exactly what @scottalanmiller issue was when I read his post.. I updated my post for clarity.

@Dashrender said:

On the Windows side we have the free version of Unitrends and Veeam for VMs, but I'm not sure of one for bare metal.

Those can become coupled if you share accounts. So it is not a panacea.

I thought that screen looked familiar, lol.

OpenLDAP is what the average Linux shop is going to turn to when looking to implement an "AD like" authentication mechanism when no Windows is involved.

OK.

@John-Nicholson has a lot of info about the red headed stepchild that is SFU.

However, if I can get something for free instead of paying for it, I will not apologize for that.

That's what people I know who are on welfare say....

Some people who are on welfare deserve to be. Many don't but don't tear down those who have a legitimate right to it because of those who don't.

No one deserves to be on it. it's it's only an opportunity for them to get back on their feet. No one is entitled to get free money. You might say they deserve to get a better paying job so they don't need to be on it.

I can see where you're coming from, but the program is there for a purpose. The purpose may be good, but how people abuse the system is not. Again, I'm sure there are plenty of people who have taken advantage of welfare and then been successful at getting back on their feet. Like a kitchen knife, it can be used to make delicious food, or as the weapon of choice of a serial killer. The knife is just a tool. Don't fix the tool, fix how people use it.
