<6> Im studying for my RHCE Exam this week. Can anyone provide me with Troubleshooting Scenarios similar to exam
<7> hey
<8> indeed
<7> why does RH make a group of the same user by default when useradd, without the -n ?
<8> why not
<8> i think it is
<8> because if you know what your doing you would use groupadd first
<8> then -G on useradd
<7> right
<8> and group 1 is default
<7> so what, it's a caveat in place for people that don't know what they're doing? :)
<8> ow yes
<8> :D
<7> heh
<7> i figured
<7> but it looks like the RH version of useradd, even if -g and -G are specified, will add a group still with the same name of a user being added, unless -n is given
<7> i could be wrong, just looking at their man page
<8> my oops
<8> useradd -g $username -d $base$username -s $SHELL $username
<8> works
<8> -G groupname
<8> not -g
<7> ok so if i have
<7> as example
<7> useradd -g users -G media,games,audio -d /home/stupid -s /bin/bash stupid
<7> will the RH version make or not make a group called stupid and put user stupid in it?
<8> useradd -G cluless,silly -d /home/stupid -s /bin/bash stupid
<8> groupadd first I think
<7> but will it make a group called stupid?
<8> yes
<8> silly eh
<7> yeah
<7> silly. i was just wondering
<8> you could do this
<7> -n has to be used
<8> groupadd cluelss; useradd -G cluless,silly -d /home/stupid -s /bin/bash stupid
<7> well right, ***uming the groups already exist
<7> that you are adding it to, and you specify initial and suplemental groups with -g and -G, it still makes a group equal to the name of the user w/o -n option
<8> night
<7> ok no it won't
<7> useradd -g users -G ignorant,dumb -d /home/stupid -s /bin/bash stupid
<7> doesn't make a group called stupid



<9> anyone here worked with lvextend?
<6> lvextend
<9> LVM
<6> OK whats the issue
<9> I am trying to extend a partition size using lvextend and it tells me that it is failing to suspend
<9> I am using this command: lvextend -L25G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05
<9> anyone experience this?
<6> It should be lvextend -L +25G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05
<9> same error
<9> L25G is making the whole partition 25G and +25G adds 25G
<6> are you tring to extend the LV or create LV
<9> extend
<9> I had a box preinstalled with redhat from Dell and the space allocated in /home is not enough
<9> 4G actually so I want to extend it
<6> what does the vgdisplay say about avai space
<9> same as pvscan right?
<9> 37.94G free
<9> there is about 41G free actually
<6> vgdisplay has 41G free
<9> how do you use vgadispaly
<6> at the command line type vgdisplay VolGroup00
<9> Free PE / Size 1342 / 41.94 GB
<6> I've just ran the command in RHEL4 LVM v2 and it works. What disc are you runing
<9> SCSCI
<6> not disk dirve but version of redhat (linux)
<9> ES4
<6> word for word what is the error message
<9> lvextend -L+25G /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol05
<9> Extending logical volume LogVol05 to 29.00 GB
<9> device-mapper: deps ioctl failed: Invalid argument
<9> _deps: task run failed for (253:1)
<9> Failed to add device (253:1) to dtree
<9> Failed to suspend LogVol05
<6> have you tried to run the command in runlevel 1
<9> nope
<9> you mean in rescue mode?
<6> And a last option is to backup all info on /home and delete LogVol05 and recrate a new LV with the right size
<6> Not rescue mode but init 1
<9> ok I will try init 1
<9> I am remote, do I have to be on console?
<6> Runlevel 1 will require you to be at the box
<9> Bob, failed also in runlevel1
<6> Next best thing would be to create (lvcreate -L 25G LogVol06 VolGroup00)
<6> and mv all you /home files to that dir
<6> or lv
<9> yeah thats what I will do, good thing not a whole lot is on the box since its new
<6> GOOD Thing :D
<9> so in fstab I mount /home on vol6?
<6> yes you'll change the /home in /etc/fstab to /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol06
<6> be sure to make a backup copy of /home
