Re: Boot drive rebuild --- can't get Greyhole to run

It took a while to find the proper log, but I had to run the --replace flag, and that solved the issue.

SOLVED: Boot drive rebuild --- can't get Greyhole to run

Hi all, I had to rebuild my Amahi server due to a hard drive failure on my boot drive. Fortunately, with the exception of the data on that one drive (which should have been copied across other drives), none of the other drives had any issues, and the data seems to be there. The problem is, I can't g...

Amahi Anywhere server will not start

I'm running Amahi 7.1.1 on Fedora 19. I installed Amahi Anywhere from the App Depot, and the service will not start. I've rebooted, tried starting/restarting the service, but nothing. I'm doing this from the HDA web interface.

Do I need to do something from the CLI?

Re: Greyhole not pooling to two drives

Okay, problem solved. Err, not really a problem actually.... The greyhole algorithm that determines where to put data is based on most available drive space. Drives 1 & 3 in my case are smaller drives/partitions. Drive 1 is the bulk of my boot drive, minus the space for boot & such. Drive 3 ...

Re: Greyhole not pooling to two drives

Do the 2 drives have the /gh directory on them?
Yeah, they are.

[root@galactica drive3]# pwd
/var/hda/files/drives/drive3
[root@galactica drive3]# ls
gh lost+found


[root@galactica drive1]# pwd
/var/hda/files/drives/drive1
[root@galactica drive1]# ls
gh lost+found
[root@galactica drive1]#

SOLVED: Greyhole not pooling to two drives

I may be having an issue with Greyhole where it's not pooling to 2 of 7 drives. I'm not sure why it isn't. I have my shares set up for 2 copies of each share, so it should be spreading copies of my files throughout the drives. It seems to be working on 5 of the drives, but the other two have nothing...

Re: New Amahi 7.1 Express Install & Greyhole

Figured it out. Needed to create a 'gh' directory in each /var/hda/fiels/drives/driveX/ location.

Re: New Amahi 7.1 Express Install & Greyhole

Sounds ok. Did you configure number of copies in the /etc/greyhole.conf file? Might run greyhole -f as root user and if there is anything to do, it will do it. As for the UI, still no firm estimate but it is being worked. Hopefully in another few weeks. Bigfoot, Something isn't right. I did a greyh...

Re: New Amahi 7.1 Express Install & Greyhole

Okay, thanks. Greyhole appears to be working, although all I'm getting is 'sleep: Nothing to do... Sleeping.' messages in the logs. I added the drives into the greyhole.conf file, and I added the extra parameters into the shares in the Dashboard per the directions. After each of those extra paramete...

SOLVED: New Amahi 7.1 Express Install & Greyhole

This is a two part question, so please bear with me. I just installed Amahi 7 from the Express DVD and manually installed all my drives. I had been running Amahi 6.2 before, and I had a drive failure, and lost some data. I started fresh, and I formated the drives according the cfdsk directions. I fo...
