From jean_paul.maas at eursc.org Thu Oct 5 16:38:20 2006 From: jean_paul.maas at eursc.org (MAAS Jean-Paul) Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2006 16:38:20 +0200 Subject: [Udpcast] Problems with SATA Message-ID: Hi there everyone, I am using UDPcast for quite some time with a huge success in our School. However as of today, as I tried to clone my first SATA Disk on an FSC Esprimo, suddenly nothing works as I was used to. On the sender it indicates that I have an ata_piix SCSI ... driver. When I start the transfer, after 2 or 3 second I'll always get an error message on my receiver indicating "Not enough space". This seems quite impossible as I am copying a 40 GByte SATA (even if uncompressed) to a 250 GByte image storage HD which is about 5% used. Does anyone have a clue what my problem could be and how I could solve it. I have 30 machines to deploy in the quickest ossible way.

Is "Not enough space" the actual message, or just a paraphrase? I'm a little bit puzzled, as this doesn't occur one single time in the source code... It's not sure it refers to the disk, it could be something else. In order to find out, I would need the exact message. The complete message for running out of disk space would be "No space left on device". If it says sth else, it could be space in memory, in temporary buffers, or elsewhere... > Does anyone have a clue what my problem could be and how I could solve it.

At least I could not find anything in the documents. We use udpcast together with PXE-boot and sometimes some machines are simply not responding to the sender (why is yet unclear). After manually restarting the machines it is usually the case that the machines to be imaged are responding again and everything is well. Unfortunately it could be the case that there are machines to be imaged which are placed in locked rooms and so it is impossible to restart them manually.

Thanks for developing udpcast. It almost compiles on my mac. But I have to make a few small changes. 1.) the linker doesn't support the -Wl,-warn-common option 2.) what is malloc.h? It isn't needed. 3.) struct ifreq is variable size, so we must use _SIZEOF_ADDR_IFREQ (), not pointer arithemetic 4.) some endian issues Thanks, Devin Bayer -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
