When installing from CD-ROM or DVD-ROM on a system with an iBFT-configured network device, Anaconda will not include any iBFT-configured storage devices unless networking is configured. To enable networking for the installation, use the command linux updates=http://[any] at the installation boot prompt. Note that [any] can be replaced with any URL.

If your system requires a static IP configuration, use the command linux updates=http://[any] ip=[IP address] netmask=[netmask] dns=[dns].

If you are copying the contents of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 CD-ROMs (in preparation for a network-based installation, for example) be sure to copy the CD-ROMs for the operating system only. Do not copy the Supplementary CD-ROM, or any of the layered product CD-ROMs, as this will overwrite files necessary for Anaconda's proper operation.

The contents of the Supplementary CD-ROM and other layered product CD-ROMs must be installed after Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.2 is installed.

When installing Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.2 on a fully virtualized guest, do not use the kernel-xen kernel. Using this kernel on fully virtualized guests can cause your system to hang.

If you are using an Installation Number when installing Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.2 on a fully virtualized guest, be sure to deselect the Virtualization package group during the installation. The Virtualization package group option installs the kernel-xen kernel.

ಪ್ಯಾರಾ-ವಾಸ್ತವಪ್ರಾಯವಾದ ಅತಿಥಿಗಳು ಈ ತೊಂದರೆಯಿಂದ ಮುಕ್ತವಾಗಿರುತ್ತವೆ ಎನ್ನುವುದನ್ನು ಗಮನಿಸಿ. ಪ್ಯಾರಾ-ವಾಸ್ತವಪ್ರಾಯವಾದ ಅತಿಥಿಗಳು ಯಾವಾಗಲೂ kernel-xen ಕರ್ನೆಲನ್ನೇ ಬಳಸುತ್ತವೆ.

If you are using the Virtualized kernel when upgrading from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 to 5.2, you must reboot after completing the upgrade. You should then boot the system using the updated Virtualized kernel.

The hypervisors of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 5.2 are not ABI-compatible. If you do not boot the system after upgrading using the updated Virtualized kernel, the upgraded Virtualization RPMs will not match the running kernel.

When upgrading to Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.1 or later from Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 4.6, gcc4 may cause the upgrade to fail. As such, you should manually remove the gcc4 package before upgrading.

The firstboot language plugin has been removed, as this plugin does not properly and completely reconfigure the system when a new language is selected.

The use of Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) during installation is not supported. As such, CHAP should only be enabled after installation.

If your system boots through an iFBT device, configure CHAP in the iFBT BIOS/firmware setup screen. Your CHAP settings will then be used in the next boot.

If your system boots through PXE iSCSI, configure CHAP through iscsiadm. After configuring, use mkinitrd to ensure that your CHAP settings are used in the next boot.

Executing binaries with more than 2GB of debug information no longer fails.

When shutting down a database, all allocated hugepages are now released upon shutdown.

invalidate_mapping_pages() calls no longer cause soft lockups.

A bug that delayed oomkill from launching in a timely fashion (on systems with large memory) is now fixed.

A bug that caused soft lockup warnings when allocating memory on a system with large memory is now fixed.

32-bit NFS clients can now correctly process 64-bit inode numbers.

The kernel now asserts Data Terminal Ready (DTR) signals before printing to serial ports during boot time. DTR assertion is required by some devices. Kernel boot messages are now printed to serial consoles on such devices.

The kernel parameter ide0=noprobe no longer causes a kernel panic.

Added a new kernel parameter: /proc/sys/vm/flush_mmap_pages. This parameter specifies whether or not memory-mapped file pages should be flushed to disk by kupdate while the memory map is active. Valid values for this parameter are 1 (enable memory mapping by kupdate) and 0 (disable memory mapping by kupdate). The default value for this parameter is 1.

To configure this parameter, use echo [1 or 0] /proc/sys/vm/flush_mmap_pages. Setting this parameter to 0 does the following:

If you set /proc/sys/vm/flush_mmap_pages to 0, it is advisable that you use another application to manually sync memory-mapped pages to disk.

Added a new kernel parameter: /proc/sys/kernel/sched_interactivity. This parameter allows you to tune the CPU scheduler's interactivity estimator. The interactivity estimator allows interactive processes to acquire more CPU time without causing CPU starvation in other processes.

To configure this parameter, use echo [interactivity_level] > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_interactivity, where [interactivity_level] can be any of the following:

kprobe now supports kretprobe_blacklist[].

Core dump masking is now supported. This allows a core dump process to skip the shared memory segments of a process when creating a core dump file. This feature also allows you to select whether or not to dump anonymous shared memory for each process.

When a process is dumped, all anonymous memory is written to a core file as long as the size of the core file isn't limited. In some cases, you may want to prevent some memory segments (such as huge shared memory) from being dumped. Conversely, you may also want to save file-backed memory segments into a core file, in addition to individual files.

For these purposes, you can use /proc/[pid]/coredump_filter to specify which memory segments of the [pid] process is dumped. coredump_filter is a bitmask of memory types. If a bitmask is set, memory segments of the corresponding memory type are dumped.

The following memory types are supported:

To set a bitmask for [pid], simply echo the corresponding bitmask to /proc/[pid]/coredump_filter. For example, to prevent a dump of all shared memory segments attached to process 1111, use:

echo 0x1 > /proc/1111/coredump_filter

The default value of coredump_filter is 0x3, which specifies that all anonymous memory segments are dumped. Also, note that regardless of the bitmask status, MMIO pages (such as frame buffers) are never dumped and vDSO pages are always dumped

When a new process is created, the process inherits the bitmask status from its parent. As such, it is recommended that you set up coredump_filter before the program runs. To do so, echo the desired bitmask to /proc/self/coredump_filter before running the program.

audit can now trace and display per-session user activity.

REV UDF file sizes larger than 1GB are now supported.

Lock contention tracing and lockdep are now supported. These features provide in-depth information about spinlocks held in the kernel, which in turn help developers in driver debugging.

The enumeration order of PCI devices has changed on several platforms to have NICs appear in the order they are labeled on the chassis and how the BIOS numbers them. The affected platforms are as follows:

Note that this change affects new installations only. If you prefer the old enumeration order, use the kernel parameter pci=nobfsort.

You can now determine the resource limit (rlimit) of a process. To do so, run cat /proc/[pid]/limits.

The maximum soft lockup timeout is now increased from 60 seconds to 300 seconds for systems that have a large number of CPUs. A soft lockup occurs when a CPU reports a memory starvation while it is unable to access a memory node accessed by other CPUs.

In this release, you can also adjust the trigger limit for soft lockup warnings. To do so, use the following command (as root):

echo [time] > /proc/sys/kernel/softlockup_thresh

Replace [time] with the desired number of seconds before a soft lockup warning should be triggered. By default, this value is set to 10 (seconds).

show_mem() output now includes the total number of pagecache pages.

MSI-X is no longer enabled by default. To enable MSI-X, use the kernel module parameter ql2xenablemsix.

Netapp devices can now complete failback (after a previously-failed path is restored) within a reasonable time with the default dm-multipath configuration.

system-config-kickstart now supports package selection through the Red Hat ಜಾಲಬಂಧ plugin.

kudzu can now properly parse ifcfg-* files that contain quotes around the HWADDR or SUBCHANNELS parameters. In addition, kudzu no longer modifies network configurations on device change if the device's HWADDR is not specified.

Running netstat with the -A inet or -A inet6 option (on a system where sctp was not added to the kernel) no longer terminates abnormally. Note, however, that netstat will display the following warning message when invoked with the -s option:

netstat: no support for `AF INET (sctp)' on this system.

The nohide export option is no longer required on referral exports (i.e. exports that specify a referral server). For more information on bound mounts, refer to man 5 exports.

The priority callouts of dm-multipath are now statically compiled. This fixes a problem that occurs when running dm-multipath on devices containing the root file system, which caused such devices to freeze during fibre-channel path faults.

parted can now understand and correctly print out Xen Virtual Device (XVD) partition labels. This enables paravirtualized guests to now use the parted utility. As such, you no longer need to use parted within dom0 to configure disk partitions on paravirtualized guests.

When upgrading to Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.2 via Red Hat ಜಾಲಬಂಧ, you no longer need to manually import the redhat-beta key prior to upgrading.

It is no longer necessary to use the kernel parameter pci=nommconf for systems that use the AMD 8132 or HT 1000 chipsets.

Note that the system will still restrict such bridges to using the PortIO CF8/CFC mechanism. However, bridges (including those on the same platform) that respond correctly to MMCONFIG cycles will use MMCONFIG, provided that the platform's BIOS correctly supports MMCONFIG.

Previous versions of Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5 on HP BL860c blade systems could hang during the IP information request stage of installation. When this occurred, you were required to reboot and perform the installation with Ethernet autonegotiation disabled.

This issue is now fixed in this update.

Gemalto 64K smart cards now use readers compliant with Chip/Smart Card Interface Devices (CCID). Previously, this smart card used the built-in e-gate reader, which essentially meant that the card and reader were being inserted at the same time. As a result, coolkey did not consistently recognize Gemalto 64K smart cards.

In this update, coolkey now works correctly with Gemalto 64k smart cards.

A bug in the updated /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules file prevents the creation of persistent names for tape devices with numbers higher than 9 in their names. For example, a persistent name will not be created for a tape device with a name of nst12.

To work around this, add an asterisk (*) after each occurrence of the string nst[0-9] in /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules.

Nested paging can only translate 32-bit guest virtual addresses. This is because of a hardware feature that exists only in 32-bit physical address extensions (PAE).

Also, note that on an AMD NPT system used as a PAE host, guests cannot have more than 4GB of memory.

The smartctl tool cannot properly read SMART parameters from SATA devices.

When using dm-multipath, if features "1 queue_if_no_path" is specified in /etc/multipath.conf then any process that issues I/O will hang until one or more paths are restored.

To avoid this, set no_path_retry [N] in /etc/multipath.conf (where [N] is the number of times the system should retry a path). When you do, remove the features "1 queue_if_no_path" option from /etc/multipath.conf as well.

Enabling multiple installed versions of the same kernel module is not supported. In addition to this, a bug in the way kernel module versions are parsed can sometimes result in enabling an older version of the same kernel module.

It is recommended that when you install a newer version of an installed kernel module, you should delete the older one first.

Executing kdump on an IBM Bladecenter QS21 or QS22 configured with NFS root will fail. To avoid this, specify an NFS dump target in /etc/kdump.conf.

IBM T60 laptops will power off completely when suspended and plugged into a docking station. To avoid this, boot the system with the argument acpi_sleep=s3_bios.

IBM ಬ್ಲೇಡ್ ಸೆಂಟರ್ ಗಾಗಿನ QLogic iSCSI ವಿಸ್ತರಣಾ ಕಾರ್ಡ್ ಎತರ್ನೆಟ್ ಹಾಗು iSCSI ಕಾರ್ಯ ಎರಡನ್ನೂ ಒದಗಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಕಾರ್ಡಿನಲ್ಲಿನ ಕೆಲವೊಂದು ಭಾಗವನ್ನು ಎರಡೂ ಹಂಚಿಕೆಗೊಂಡಿವೆ. ಆದರೆ ಈಗಿನ qla3xxx ಹಾಗು qla4xxx ಚಾಲಕಗಳುಎತರ್ನೆಟ್ ಹಾಗು iSCSI ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಪ್ರತ್ಯೇಕವಾಗಿ ಬೆಂಬಲಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಎರಡೂ ಚಾಲಕಗಳು ಎತರ್ನೆಟ್ ಹಾಗು iSCSI ಕಾರ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ಒಂದೇ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಬಳಸುವುದನ್ನು ಬೆಂಬಲಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.

Because of this limitation, successive resets (via consecutive ifdown/ifup commands) may hang the device. To avoid this, allow a 10-second interval after an ifup before issuing an ifdown. Also, allow the same 10-second interval after an ifdown before issuing an ifup. This interval allows ample time to stabilize and re-initialize all functions when an ifup is issued.

Cisco Aironet MPI-350 ವೈರ್-ಲೆಸ್ ಕಾರ್ಡುನ್ನು ಹೊಂದಿದ ಲ್ಯಾಪ್-ಟಾಪ್ ಗಳಿಗೆ ತಂತಿಯುಕ್ತ ಎತರ್ನೆಟ್ ಪೋರ್ಟನ್ನು ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸಿ ಜಾಲಬಂಧ ಆಧರಿತ ಅನುಸ್ಥಾಪನೆಯನ್ನು ಮಾಡುವಾಗ DHCP ವಿಳಾಸವನ್ನು ಪಡೆಯುವ ಯತ್ನದಲ್ಲಿ ಗಣಕ ಸ್ಥಗಿತಗೊಳ್ಳಬಹುದು.

ಇದರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡಲು, ನಿಮ್ಮ ಅನುಸ್ಥಾಪನೆಗೆ ಸ್ಥಳೀಯ ಮಾಧ್ಯಮವನ್ನು ಉಪಯೋಗಿಸಿ. ಬದಲಾಗಿ, ಅನುಸ್ಥಾಪನೆಗೂ ಮೊದಲು ನೀವು ಲ್ಯಾಪ್ಟಾಪಿನ BIOS ನ ವೈರ್ಲೆಸ್ ಕಾರ್ಡನ್ನು ಅಶಕ್ತಗೊಳಿಸಬಹುದು (ಅನುಸ್ಥಾಪನೆ ಮುಗಿದ ನಂತರ ನೀವು ವೈರ್ಲೆಸ್ ಕಾರ್ಡನ್ನು ಪುನಃ ಶಕ್ತಗೊಳಿಸಬಹುದು).

Boot-time logging to /var/log/boot.log is not available in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2.

When using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 on a machine with an nVidia CK804 chipset installed, the following kernel messages may appear:

kernel: assign_interrupt_mode Found MSI capability
kernel: pcie_portdrv_probe->Dev[005d:10de] has invalid IRQ. Check vendor BIOS

ಈ ಸಂದೇಶಗಳು ಕೆಲವೊಂದು PCI-ಪೋರ್ಟುಗಳು IRQಗಳಿಗಾಗಿ ಕೋರುತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಸೂಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ, ಹಾಗೆಯೇ, ಈ ಸಂದೇಶಗಳು ಯಾವುದೇ ಕಾರಣಕ್ಕೂ ಗಣಕದ ಕಾರ್ಯ ನಿರ್ವಹಣೆಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಪ್ರಭಾವ ಬೀರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ.

ನೀವು ಮೂಲವಾಗಿ ಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸಿದಾಗ ತೆಗೆದು ಹಾಕಬಹುದಾದ ಶೇಖರಣಾ ಸಾಧನಗಳು (CDಗಳು ಹಾಗು DVDಗಳು) ಸ್ವಯಂಚಾಲಿತವಾಗಿ ಆರೋಹಿಸಲ್ಪಡುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ಹಾಗಾಗಿ, ನೀವು ಚಿತ್ರಾತ್ಮಕ ಕಡತ ವ್ಯವಸ್ಥಾಪಕವನ್ನು ಬಳಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಸ್ವಹಸ್ತದಿಂದ ಸಾಧನವನ್ನು ಆರೋಹಿಸಬೇಕಾಗುತ್ತದೆ.

ಪರ್ಯಾಯವಾಗಿ, ನೀವು ಈ ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಆಜ್ಞೆಯನ್ನು ಬಳಸಿಕೊಂಡು ಒಂದು ಸಾಧನವನ್ನು /media ಕ್ಕೆ ಆರೋಹಿಸಬಹುದಾಗಿದೆ:

The IBM System z does not provide a traditional Unix-style physical console. As such, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 for the IBM System z does not support the firstboot functionality during initial program load.

To properly initialize setup for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.2 on the IBM System z, run the following commands after installation:

When a LUN is deleted on a configured storage system, the change is not reflected on the host. In such cases, lvm commands will hang indefinitely when dm-multipath is used, as the LUN has now become stale.

ಇದರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡಲು, ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಸಾಧನಗಳನ್ನು ಹಾಗು /etc/lvm/.cacheದಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಸ್ಥಬ್ದ LUN ಗೆ ನಿಶ್ಚಿತವಾದ ಎಲ್ಲಾ mpath ಲಿಂಕ್ ನಮೂದುಗಳನ್ನು ಅಳಿಸಿ ಹಾಕಿ.

ಈ ನಮೂದುಗಳು ಏನೆಂದು ತಿಳಿಯಲು, ಈ ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಆಜ್ಞೆಯನ್ನು ಚಲಾಯಿಸಿ:

ls -l /dev/mpath | grep [stale LUN]

For example, if [stale LUN] is 3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00, the following results may appear:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug  2 10:33 /3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00 -> ../dm-4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug  2 10:33 /3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00p1 -> ../dm-5

ಇದರರ್ಥ 3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00 ಯು ಈ ಎರಡು mpath ಲಿಂಕುಗಳಿಗೆ ಮ್ಯಾಪ್ ಮಾಡಲಾಗಿದೆ: dm-4 ಹಾಗು dm-5.

ಈ ಕೆಳಗಿನ ಸಾಲನ್ನು /etc/lvm/.cache ದಿಂದ ಅಳಿಸಿ ಹಾಕಬೇಕು:

/dev/dm-4 
/dev/dm-5 
/dev/mapper/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00
/dev/mapper/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00p1
/dev/mpath/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00
/dev/mpath/3600d0230003414f30000203a7bc41a00p1

Running the multipath command with the -ll option can cause the command to hang if one of the paths is on a blocking device. Note that the driver does not fail a request after some time if the device does not respond.

This is caused by the cleanup code, which waits until the path checker request either completes or fails. To display the current multipath state without hanging the command, use multipath -l instead.

ಎಲ್ಲಿಯಾದರೂ X ಚಲಾಯಿತವಾಗುತ್ತಿದ್ದು ಮತ್ತು vesa ವಲ್ಲದೆ ಬೇರೆ ಒಂದು ಚಾಲಕವನ್ನು ಬಳಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದರೆ, ಗಣಕವು ಒಂದು kexec/kdump ಕರ್ನಲ್ಲಿಗೆ ಯಶಸ್ವಿಯಾಗಿ ಬೂಟ್ ಆಗದೇ ಇರಬಹುದು. ATI Rage XL ಚಿತ್ರಾತ್ಮಕ ಚಿಪ್ ಸೆಟ್ಟುಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾತ್ರ ಈ ತೊಂದರೆಯು ಕಾಣಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತದೆ.

Upgrading pm-utils from a Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.2 Beta version of pm-utils will fail, resulting in the following error:

error: unpacking of archive failed on file /etc/pm/sleep.d: cpio: rename
                        

To prevent this from occurring, delete the /etc/pm/sleep.d/ directory prior to upgrading. If /etc/pm/sleep.d contains any files, move those files to /etc/pm/hooks/.

Mellanox MT25204 ಗಾಗಿನ ಯಂತ್ರಾಂಶ ಪರೀಕ್ಷೆಯಿಂದ ಅತಿಯಾದ ಲೋಡ್‍ನ ಸಂದರ್ಭಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಒಂದು ಆಂತರಿಕ ದೋಷವು ಕಂಡುಬರುತ್ತದೆ ಎಂಬುದು ತಿಳಿದುಬಂದಿದೆ. ಈ ಯಂತ್ರಾಂಶದಲ್ಲಿನ ib_mthca ಚಾಲಕವು ಒಂದು ಅನಾಹುತಕಾರಿಯಾದ ದೋಷವನ್ನು ವರದಿ ಮಾಡಿದೆ ಎಂದಾದಲ್ಲಿ, ಅದು ಸಾಮಾನ್ಯವಾಗಿ ಬಳಕೆದಾರ ಅನ್ವಯದಿಂದ ಬಾಕಿ ಉಳಿದಿರುವ ಕಾರ್ಯ ಮನವಿಗಳ ಸಂಖ್ಯೆಗೆ ಸಂಬಂಧಿತವಾದ ಸಾಕಷ್ಟಿಲ್ಲದ ಕಂಪ್ಲೀಶನ್ ಕ್ಯೂ ಡೆಪ್ತ್‍ಗೆ ಸಂಬಂಧಿಸಿರುತ್ತದೆ.

Although the driver will reset the hardware and recover from such an event, all existing connections at the time of the error will be lost. This generally results in a segmentation fault in the user application. Further, if opensm is running at the time the error occurs, then you need to manually restart it in order to resume proper operation.

When upgrading from Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 4.6 to Red Hat ಎಂಟರ್ಪ್ರೈಸ್ ಲಿನಕ್ಸ್ 5.1 (or later), a warning error will appear stating that the kernel module mptscsi was not found. To prevent this, edit /etc/modprobe.conf by changing mptscsi to mptscsih before upgrading.
