Fabric Debug Initiation using ibdiagnet (Part 1)

Learn some of these steps from Mellanox Academy Online Training

Step 1: Clear all counters and begin the test execution

ibdiagnet -pc

Wait for a while. Usually, it may take 30 to 60 mins

Check for errors that exceed the allowed threshold

ibdiagnet -ls 25 -lw 4x -P all=1 --pm_pause_time 30
  • Specify the link speed
    -ls <2.5|5|10|14|25|50> 
  • Specify the Link width
    -lw <1x|4x|8x|12x>
  • Check Information provide from all counters and display each one of them crossing threshold of 1
    -P all=1
  • The time between the two samples is set by the –pm_pause_time option

You have to delete all the items in this folder before you can delete the folder” on oneDrive

You may have read the blog posting “Setup of Linux OneDrive on CentOS 7“. If you have multiple subfolders upon subfolders with many items, there may be issues. You have to delete all the items in the sub folders before deleting the final main folder which is tedious.

For more information, do take a look at Microsoft site https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/you-have-to-delete-all-the-items-in-this-folder/58299e1f-aea0-4630-9759-05ae474f1157

Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve

When I was loading my anaconda-2020, I’ve received this error.

conda install -c conda-forge opencv

And I got this error

Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve....

There was this thread from github which was useful and it help a lot! https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/9367

Step 1: To resolve, Create an environment called opencv using

conda create -n opencv

Step 2: Activate it

conda activate opencv

Step 3: Install it again

conda install -c anaconda opencv

(which install opencv 3, but not the most recent 4. In order to create a second environment called opencv4. Use above code to create and activate and do a standard download:

conda install -c conda-forge opencv

Basic GNU Screen Usage on CentOS

Introduction

Screen is a full-screen window manager that multiplexes a physical terminal between several processes, typically interactive shells. In other words, you can start any number of virtual terminals inside the session. The good thing is that processes running inside screen will continue to run even though the SSH session get disconnected.

GNU Screen Site

GNU Screen can be found on http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/screen/

Source Code

You can get the source code from here

Using Screen

Screen can be easily installed on CentOS with just

# yum install screen

Naming a Named Session

You may be running many sessions and it is a good idea to name the session that you are starting.

screen -S your_preferred_screen_name

Listing running Screen Session

[user1@node1 ~]$ screen -ls
There is a screen on:
2109.myScreenA (Detached)
1 Socket in /var/run/screen/S-user1

Reattach to a Screen Session

To connect back to the screen, just type the numeric id of the screen

screen -r 2109

Detaching from a Screen Session

Inside the Virtual Session, you can detach the screen with the command

Ctrl-a + d

[Press ctrl with “a” and “d” together]
If you are already outside the virtual session, you can detach an active session by

screen -d 2109

Customised Screen

If you a looking at how to split Screen using screen. Here is a good visual guide.

To Terminate the Screen Session,

Enter into the Session screen

screen -r 2109
exit
