All seemed ok but after reboot the server refused to start complaining about cgroups (i can't get my hands on any logs though, errors were on screen only apparently).. I managed to get the system back up by selecting sysv in grub but would really like to fix the pb.. Any hints? Thanks in advance.. 1433667213 J * bonbons ~bonbons@2001:a18:22c:ab01:f915:d4e3:1d5b:60ff 1433669534 Q * wicope Remote host closed the connection 1433677611 Q * Aiken Remote host closed the connection 1433677911 Q * sannes Ping timeout: 480 seconds 1433678388 J * fstd_ ~fstd@xdsl-87-78-19-225.netcologne.de 1433678501 J * sannes ~ace@2a02:fe0:c120:9660:224:1dff:fe14:d24 1433678837 Q * fstd Ping timeout: 480 seconds 1433678837 N * fstd_ fstd 1433686490 N * Bertl_zZ Bertl 1433686492 M * Bertl morning folks! 1433686557 M * Bertl JayC: you should capture a bootup log, preferably via a serial or remote (network) console 1433686668 M * Bertl the "upgrade" lists a non Linux-VServer kernel, so that might be your problem, but hard to tell without bootup log 1433686743 M * JayC Bertl: I have no IP KVM and not quite sure how to capture from serial at boot but I'll gladly do the monkey work by hand.. yeah I had spotted the non vserver kernel but that has never had any impact (at least up till now) 1433686789 M * Bertl well, if your system has a serial port, it isn't very hard to get it working 1433686819 M * Bertl usually all you need is to add something like console=ttyS0,115200n8 to your kernel boot commandline 1433686840 M * Bertl (and have e.g. minicom running on the other end of the serial console) 1433686905 M * Bertl http://linux-vserver.org/Documentation 1433686917 M * Bertl scroll down to the bottom, there are two interesting links 1433686935 M * Bertl the null modem cables (to connect two systems via serial line) 1433686946 M * Bertl and the serial console howto with all the gory details 1433686975 M * JayC It should but really have never used serial nor capturing at boot in my entire life... lol.. thanks for the info... will have a look but since the output wasn't that long may be faster to report manually for the moment... be back in a few and will post what I see on pastebin... 1433687029 M * Bertl usually the output is rather lengthy, most systems add "quiet" to the commandline, you want to change that to "debug" 1433687069 M * Bertl the output will typically cover a few hundred lines, so it is non trivial to capture via vga console for example 1433687119 M * Bertl of course, if you're lucky and reach a state where you can actually log-on, you can also grab that info via dmesg 1433687177 M * JayC hmmm... will see what I'm able to do (need to see if I have a serial cable lying around somewhere)... Unfortunately the broken systemd prevents me from logging in and when I switch to sysv there's just nothing in the logs at all 1433687246 M * daniel_hozac your server doesn't have a built-in KVM and serial port? 1433687260 M * daniel_hozac (remotely accessible serial port, that is) 1433687278 M * JayC very old hp G2... not sure it has ILO on it... 1433687295 M * JayC this ain't a provider server it's my home tst network 1433687608 M * JayC i get a bunch of junk about systemd failing to create cgroup /system.slice/vserver mounts or services and finally failing to start Login Service but that's about it... guess I'm going to have to wait till tomorrow as I don't have any serial cable handy... lol 1433687692 M * daniel_hozac you might want to install hponcfg and see if it there is an iLO and configure it. 1433687982 J * JayC_ ~JayC@175.68.7.85.dynamic.wline.res.cust.swisscom.ch 1433687989 M * JayC_ hmm... yeah there seems to be an ILO port at the back... will see what I can come up with... 1433688137 Q * JayC Ping timeout: 480 seconds 1433688240 P * JayC_ Leaving... 1433688256 J * JayC ~JayC@175.68.7.85.dynamic.wline.res.cust.swisscom.ch 1433693032 M * JayC daniel_hozac: well it's gotta be one of those days... The server is soo old DL140-G2 that hponcfg wont install (ERROR: This server is NOT supported!), of course it's a second hand with no support and I don't even have access to the smartstart tools anymore to upgrade any firmware... lol.. Nothing about ILO in the BIOS (tons of junk about nics and console redirection which apparently I'm too stupid to get working pro 1433693032 M * JayC perly) and of course no serial cable handy... erm.. guess I'm stuck with sysv until I get a cable or someone else has the same issue and does a better job at debugging it... 1433693089 M * JayC thanks for pointing me to the right direction (which essentially resumes to drop those pieces of crap I'm running on and get new servers...).. ;p 1433693141 Q * derjohn_mobi Ping timeout: 480 seconds 1433693471 M * Bertl well, usually a serial console is way less hassle than getting an ILO working properly 1433693500 M * Bertl and once it has has been configured, it just works, no firmware upgrade, no resetting stuck ILOs, etc 1433693523 M * Bertl so in any case, new or old hardware, you're way better off if you setup a serial console properly 1433694007 J * wicope ~wicope@0001fd8a.user.oftc.net 1433694203 Q * FireEgl Ping timeout: 480 seconds 1433694314 M * JayC Bertl: That's what i'll be doing tomorrow if I can't get anything running by then... the good news is that everything is working great wwith sysv (it's my home squeezebox server... I'd hate to be musicless for more than a day).. txs again for help and I'll get back to you as soon as I've managed to get the output needed.. 1433694347 M * Bertl no problem! have fun! 1433694740 J * FireEgl FireEgl@2001:470:e0ab:1:ccf0:b62b:b6f7:92fb 1433700320 J * macmaN ~chezburge@145-183-35-213.dyn.estpak.ee 1433704819 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433704820 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433704986 Q * BWare Remote host closed the connection 1433704986 Q * webhat Remote host closed the connection 1433705113 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433705120 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433705913 Q * webhat Remote host closed the connection 1433705913 Q * BWare Remote host closed the connection 1433705934 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433705940 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433705991 Q * webhat Remote host closed the connection 1433705992 Q * BWare Remote host closed the connection 1433706147 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433706147 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433706275 Q * webhat Remote host closed the connection 1433706275 Q * BWare Read error: Connection reset by peer 1433706297 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433706302 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433706555 Q * BWare Remote host closed the connection 1433706555 Q * webhat Read error: Connection reset by peer 1433707498 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433707499 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433708359 Q * webhat Remote host closed the connection 1433708359 Q * BWare Remote host closed the connection 1433708614 Q * wicope Remote host closed the connection 1433709158 J * BWare ~itsme@31.25.99.5 1433709159 J * webhat ~quassel@31.25.99.5 1433710318 J * Aiken ~Aiken@d63f.h.jbmb.net 1433711229 Q * JayC Remote host closed the connection 1433714283 M * Bertl off for a nap ... bbl 1433714292 N * Bertl Bertl_zZ 1433715377 Q * arekm Quit: leaving 1433715397 J * arekm ~arekm@ixion.pld-linux.org 1433720175 Q * bonbons Quit: Leaving 1433721584 J * fstd_ ~fstd@xdsl-87-78-182-166.netcologne.de
