BlurbsThis is a featured page

Page contains erratic miscellaneous configuration hints and tips for very specific issues that I usually just throw in a .txt file for future reference. The structure is disorganized but, perhaps someone might find something useful.

Time Server Linux Setup
-----------------------------------
1. service ntpd stop
2. Edit /etc/ntp.conf and add the following
server <IP of Time Server>
3. Save the file
4. Run the following 3 times
ntpdate -u <IP of Time Server>
ntpdate -u <IP of Time Server>
ntpdate -u <IP of Time Server>
5. service ntpd start
6. Run the following so it starts automatically
chkconfig --level 3 ntpd on
chkconfig --level 5 ntpd on

Fixes for EL 4 Virts
----------------------------------------------------
1. Add the following to the .vmx file
tools.syncTime = 0
2. Change the default kernel to SMTP
3. Add clock=pmtmr kernel parameter to the SMTP Kernel parameter

Search for strings in files
--------------------------
find /top/directory -type f -exec grep -l 'string I want to find' {} \;


ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Must increase the shared memory to be >= value of MEMORY_Target
Ex. mount -o remount,size=2G /dev/shm

OVM Version Error Workaround
------------------------------------------------
rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*

Reconfigure DB Control for new hostname
--------------------------------------
emca -config dbcontrol db

dcmctl updateconfig -ct opmn
opmnctl reload
