CentOS conversion and Secure Boot
by ckeader 06 Apr '22

06 Apr '22

Hello, Now that Secure Boot is supported, is there any documentation that describes the specific steps required to convert a CentOS 8 system with Secure Boot to Rocky? Is this even supported? The scenario I'm looking at is a machine running CentOS 8 that uses both SB and NBDE. The naive approach, and I haven't tested this yet, would be to disable SB, do the conversion, then re-enable it. Thanks for any insights.

by Alessandro Baggi 17 Mar '22

Hi list, I'm using RL8.5 on my workstation and I have an old NVIDIA GTX 1050ti. Using nouveau I get bad performances so I install nvidia driver from NVIDIA site. I use dkms from EPEL. Today after the kernel update my system (during boot) gone in emergency mode and running journalctl -xb I found this message: kernel: nvidia: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel Reinstalling NVIDIA driver solve the problem but: 1) This problem is caused by DKMS that does not recompile the driver for the next driver? 2) Something else Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

xfs disk quota problem: soft block quota grace period ignored
by Julie Ashworth 10 Jan '22

10 Jan '22

hi all, I hope somebody can offer some advice on a xfs disk quota problem, where the soft block quota grace period is ignored. I confirmed that the problem affects at least 4 file servers that I mgirated to Rocky. On all servers, xfs disk quotas have worked correctly for over a year with CentOS8.4. Last month, I upgraded the 4 fileservers from CentOS8.4 to CentOS8.5, rebooted, then ran the migrate2rocky.sh script. The migration script reported no errors. This week, I noticed that quotas grace period was ignored. I changed nothing on the servers except upgrading packages/migrating to Rocky. Now when a user's soft block quota is exceeded, write access is denied (even though the user is within the grace period, and below the hard quota). Below is information from one server, but all 4 are similar: ------------------------------------------------------------- # cat /etc/redhat-release Rocky Linux release 8.5 (Green Obsidian) # uname -a Linux fs8.priv 4.18.0-348.7.1.el8_5.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 21 19:02:23 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux # rpm -qa | grep -i quota quota-4.04-14.el8.x86_64 quotatool-1.6.2-13.el8.x86_64 quota-nls-4.04-14.el8.noarch quota-rpc-4.04-14.el8.x86_64 mount filesystem with user quotas and confirm: ---------------------------------------------- # mount -o uquota /dev/vg716f9/lv716f9 /export/716f9 # mount | grep 716f9 /dev/mapper/vg716f9-lv716f9 on /export/716f9 type xfs (rw,relatime,inode64,logbufs=8,logbsize=32k,sunit=256,swidth=3328,usrquota) # xfs_quota -x -c "state -u" /export/716f9 User quota state on /export/716f9 (/dev/mapper/vg716f9-lv716f9) Accounting: ON Enforcement: ON Inode: #515 (42 blocks, 41 extents) Blocks grace time: [14 days] Blocks max warnings: 5 Inodes grace time: [7 days] Inodes max warnings: 5 Realtime Blocks grace time: [7 days] set user 'julie' block soft quota to 5GB and block hard quota to 100GB: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- # xfs_quota -x -c 'limit bsoft=5G bhard=100G julie' /export/716f9 # xfs_quota -x -c 'report -h' /export/716f9 User quota on /export/716f9 (/dev/mapper/vg716f9-lv716f9) Blocks User ID Used Soft Hard Warn/Grace ---------- --------------------------------- julie 4.1G 5G 100G 00 [------] log in as user 'julie' to create a file ------------------------------------------ [julie@fs8 ~]$ touch /export/716f9/julie/a [julie@fs8 ~]$ quota -s Disk quotas for user julie (uid 1353): Filesystem space quota limit grace files quota limit grace /dev/mapper/vg716f9-lv716f9 4240M 5120M 100G 12503 0 0 set user 'julie' block soft quota to 1GB and 100GB hard, and note 14-day grace period: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # xfs_quota -x -c 'limit bsoft=1G bhard=100G julie' /export/716f9 # xfs_quota -x -c 'report -h' /export/716f9 | grep julie User quota on /export/716f9 (/dev/mapper/vg716f9-lv716f9) Blocks User ID Used Soft Hard Warn/Grace ---------- --------------------------------- julie 4.1G 1G 100G 00 [14 days] log in as user 'julie' again confirm quota and try to write file ---------------------------------------------------------------- [julie@fs8 ~]$ quota -s Disk quotas for user julie (uid 1353): Filesystem space quota limit grace files quota limit grace /dev/mapper/vg716f9-lv716f9 4240M* 1024M 100G 13days 12504 0 0 [julie@fs8 ~]$ touch /export/716f9/julie/a touch: cannot touch '/export/716f9/julie/a': Disk quota exceeded Can anybody offer some advice?

tftp can connect to server but not transfer file

Hi folks, for learning purposes of PXE boot environment I started to configure TFTP server: sudo dnf install tftp-server tftp sudo chmod 777 /var/lib/tftpboot sudo systemctl start tftp sudo systemctl enable tftp sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=tftp --permanent sudo firewall-cmd --reload sudo touch /var/lib/tftpboot/file1.txt echo "Hello File 1" | sudo tee /var/lib/tftpboot/file1.txt Now, on the same machine I can retrieve the file: tftp myserver.mydomain.local -m binary -c get file1.txt /dev/stdout Hello File 1 On another machine I can connect to the tftp server but the transfer of the file fails: tftp myserver.mydomain.local -m binary -c get file1.txt /dev/stdout Transfer timed out. And then tftp myserver.mydomain.local tftp> mode binary tftp> trace Packet tracing on. tftp> literal Literal mode on. tftp> status Connected to myserver.mydomain.local. Mode: octet Verbose: off Tracing: on Literal: on Rexmt-interval: 5 seconds, Max-timeout: 25 seconds tftp> verbose Verbose mode on. tftp> get file1.txt getting from myserver.mydomain.local:file1.txt to file1.txt [octet] sent RRQ <file=file1.txt, mode=octet> sent RRQ <file=file1.txt, mode=octet> sent RRQ <file=file1.txt, mode=octet> sent RRQ <file=file1.txt, mode=octet> sent RRQ <file=file1.txt, mode=octet> Transfer timed out. What can I do to further analyse the problem ? Regards, Meikel
