Is there any doc/procedure to set up VNC on SLES 11 to connect from windows clients??

how to ri-rdoc for Ruby on suse

upengan78 — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 21:14:27 GMT

Hello guys,

This is suse SLES 9.2.

I want to get ri working for all users on this system. I used

Code:

gem rdoc --all --ri

to generate documentation and it went on doing it successfully.

Then I tried

Code:

ri Array

It shows following message :

Code:

Nothing known about Array

Therefore I ran "rdoc --ri" as that user and after a long time it generated the documentation and this time "ri Array" did show some result (Same as when you do "man "

but this works only for that user and for other users they always get Nothing known about array.

Is there anyway to generate documentation which would be globally accessible using ri command?

I don't use ruby or gems much, so any help in this matter is really appreciated.

Thanks:b:

lvextend on ext3 resizing

Hi all

IM very curious about one thing
Im currently playing with a test server SLES x64 SP2, and I got to a serious issue which is really sorry for the word pissing me off. :mad:

I created an pv, then vg and finaly some lv's which is fine.

I mounted then and everything worked fine till....

my vg have some free unallocated space so I wanted to try out the offline resizing for ext3 lv.

kernel 2.6.10
e2fsprogs 1.38

used
1. umount /tmp
2. lvexted -L50G /dev/vg00/lvol01
3. e2fsck -f /dev/vg00/lvol01
4. resize2fs /dev/vg00/lvol01
5. mount /dev/vg00/lvol01 /tmp

The actuall problem is that by using df -h /tmp the size of the lv has increased, still the free space wasnt showed correctly as an example

Before

Size Used Aval.
5 GB 4.5 GB 0.5 GB

After resize
55GB 54.5 GB 0.5 GB

TO fix this issue I had simply to reboot the server which isnt very handy

Just for an example I tried the same on my Workstation with Fedora12 BETA!!!

just wow online resizing
lvextend, resize2fs and thats all

I read some articles that from e2fsprogs version 1.39 you are able to resize ext3 online still It cannot be true that I need to reboot the whole linux enteprise class server so the changes can take place.

I also tried the tip with removing the Journaling option still the issue remains the same tune2fs -O ^has_journal and tune2fs -O has_journal

I would be very thankfull for any tips or recommendation

Have a nice day

errors after upgrading from SLES10Sp2 to SLES 11

s_linux — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 18:38:19 GMT

I just upgraded sles 10 sp2 to sles 11. Apache is running on the server. apache needs to contact the backend server which is weblogic. But once I upgrade to sles 11 i cant able to telnet or ping to the backend (weblogic)server. I checked firewall and is disabled. Any ideas. Thanks.
