Bellman

Bellman is a very small Linux server. Currently its primary job is to run Docker containers.

"What's the good of Mercator's North Poles and Equators,
Tropics, Zones, and Meridian Lines?"'
So the Bellman would cry: and the crew would reply
"They are merely conventional signs!"
--Lewis Carroll, The Hunting of the Snark

complete backups (see section below)

8/5/20 There is a partial rsync of Supermicro Bellman on Wenda in ~bwilson/bellman.

Stupid AppArmor complaint

I finally fixed the error that was being logged once per minute endlessly,

[192526.044351] audit: type=1400 audit(1649031318.465:3607): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="/usr/sbin/ntpd" name="/snap/bin/" pid=845699 comm="ntpd" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=0 ouid=0

I put this in /etc/apparmor.d/local/usr.sbin.ntpd

 /snap/bin/ r,

then I did this and checked for errors.. I deleted /etc/apparmor.d/disable/usr.sbin.rsyslogd to eliminate a whine

systemctl reload apparmor.service
systemctl status apparmor.service

Audio notes

For a few months Bellman lived in my structured media panel. Now he and Wenda are back in the lab again where they can be on a UPS.

Bellman is powered on all the time so it should look like this,

Murre line out => line in Bellman line out => Speakers

But there is no line out on Bellman. I have a single headphone jack for an audio connector. So much for that idea.

Streaming audio to speakers connected directly.

1. Test bellman audio.
   1. Output to speakers, set up alsamixer and play a file and see if sound comes out.

• play /usr/share/sounds/sound-icons/violoncello-7.wav

1. 1. Input from microphone array

They say there is one?

In the old Supermicro days, it was possible to route the audio through Bellman via this magic command from https://askubuntu.com/questions/211136/get-the-audio-from-line-in-to-output-to-the-speaker

#manually start the module-loopback
pactl load-module module-loopback

#configure your system to load module-loopback on startup
#this places load-module module-loopback at the end of
#the /etc/pulse/default.pa pulseaudio configuration file.
sudo sh -c ' echo "load-module module-loopback" >>  /etc/pulse/default.pa '

Now sound can pass through. Since Bellman is always running, he gets to be connected directly to the speakers. This command will not work without a display,

pavucontrol

Streaming audio to another sink

How I can route audio from Docker containers to a speaker somewhere else in the house? I want the Pi Zero living in the kitchen needs to accept a stream over WiFi. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=136474

Software

• 2023-11-30 Debian 12 "Bookworm"
• 202? Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS ("focal"), upgraded to 22.04 LTS ("jammy")

apt packages

This is a list of things added after a basic installation of Ubuntu. The goal this time out is to put every service into a Docker container, so packages added is minimal.

autofs
emacs-nox fail2ban mlocate 
net-tools
nfs-common (needed to mount synology volumes locally, notably /green/music)
lm-sensors (use "sensors-detect" to config and "sensors" to read core temperatures)
rsync sudo

Left over from Ubuntu Bellman

pulseaudio pulseaudio-utils avahi-daemon
pavumeter pavucontrol ubuntu-sounds
timeshift

additional software

Not installed from the standard Debian repositories

Conda - Miniconda3 is installed in my home directory.

Docker: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/debian/ Remember to add your account to the docker group.

Disable IPV6

Create this file, then reload sysctl

root@bellman:/etc/sysctl.d# cat 10-disable_ipv6.conf
# 2024-11-24
# Disabling the IPv6
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.wlan0.disable_ipv6 = 1

sysctl --system

Check with ip addr command, look for ipv6 addresses. They should be gone.

Firewall

This is all different under Ubuntu. Hmm.

See https://blog.daknob.net/debian-firewall-docker/ for ideas.

I use my own bash script to load iptables rules. See /usr/local/bin, /etc/network, and /var/lib/vastra.

Email

I gave up on Dockerizing this for now. Ubuntu wisely switched from exim4 to postfix at Jammy.

But Bellman is currently running exim4 so anyways I set it up as a smarthost https://askubuntu.com/questions/167043/how-do-i-configure-exim4-to-send-mail-through-a-password-protected-ssl-smtp-mail using Porkbun. https://kb.porkbun.com/article/146-email-client-configuration-settings

I had to change the exim4 config with dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config followed by update-exim4.conf and systemctl restart exim4

I had to login to porkbun in /etc/exim4/passwd.client

I had to rewrite the sender in /etc/exim4/conf.d/rewrite/00_exim4-config_header like this

Printing

The Brother printer is currently connected to Wenda not Bellman. When it was, I found the Linux drivers for my HL-L2320D printer didn't work, so I set up a raw driver on Bellman and then used the appropriate driver (manually selected) on client computers. It works fine.

Allow remote access

cupsctl --remote-admin --remote-any --share-printers

I also had to edit and add to /etc/cups/cupsd.conf

HostNameLookups on

and then

systemctl restart cups

NFS mounts

The Synology is automounted via the autofs package on /net/wenda/volume1/* I had to uncomment the /net line in /etc/auto.master to enable this.

Backups

Strategy -- back up to one of three USB drives. Keep one offsite, someplace?

borgjs setup

See ~bwilson/Backups/README.md. Output goes to an attached USB drive.

First time out, you must initialize the repository.

fdisk /dev/sdb
mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdb1
mount /dev/sdb1 /media/Backups
borg init -e none /media/Backups

I opt for no encryption when going to an attached hard drive.

See https://github.com/vesparny/borgjs

My system is not smart enough yet to mount the drives itself, so when I swap them out I have to do a mount operation, (first make sure you have the right device.)

mount /dev/sdb1 /media/Backups

I tried putting it in a Docker and gave up. It's installed on Bellman, directly. The docker seemed to run and never terminate, this is disturbing. How can I check the status? I wrote a script for that, run "./check_status.sh". But the script does not need docker.

Recovery

If I can't recover a file from a backup, I need to find a different strategy.

Today I pretend I want just one file, so I do this: list the backups and pick one, mount it, copy.

sudo borg list /media/Backups
sudo borg mount /media/Backups::20240822-125406 /mnt

Don't forget when you are done to unmount.

sudo umount /mnt

Home Assistant backups

2023-1-1 working

Nightly backup of sqlite3 databases and loose files in config directory, to /net/wenda/volume1/Wildsong/Backups/home-assistant/

BBR congestion

See https://www.cyberciti.biz/cloud-computing/increase-your-linux-server-internet-speed-with-tcp-bbr-congestion-control/ for example.

Is kernel ready?

That's that.

Services that run here

• git moved to Synology Wenda (see Running my own git server)
• Brother printer moved to Wenda
• gpsd welll --- not in Astoria, not yet anyway. :-(
• ssh to allow remote access
• fail2ban to cut off break in attempts via ssh

DNS

I tried to get dnsmasq to happily live in a container and failed (it would not come back up on reboots.) So dnsmasq runs on the host.

Network syslog

To allow devices such as [[Granstream GXV3240] phones to spit out logging information, I enable rsyslog from remote hosts: In /etc/rsyslog.conf you must uncomment 2 lines and restart rsyslogd:

# provides UDP syslog reception
module(load="imudp")
input(type="imudp" port="514")

Services in Docker containers

/etc/docker/daemon.json looks like this

History

2023-11 Replaced NVME with a new one and installed Debian 12 (Bookworm).

2022-03-02 Installed Docker from the Docker repo per https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/#install-using-the-repository so I can use buildx now.

2020-12-03 Installed exim4 and configured to use Sendgrid.

2020-12-01 Moved dnsmasq from Docker container to host, it just was not restarting properly when I rebooted and that would take my entire network offline.

2020-10-18 Moved from garage to structured media panel.

2020-08-05 Intel NUC edition hardware arrived. Installed Ubuntu Server 20.04.1 LTS.

2020-07-29 Bellman, Supermicro edition completely went dark. I set up Tern as a temporary replacement and ordered an Intel NUC.

2020-01-20 - started generating errors: NMI: IOCK error (debug interrupt?) for reason 61 on CPU 0. Then it would not restart. I ended up replacing the CR2032 (did not help) and then reseating the connectors. Fixed. This system is getting long in the tooth.

2019-10-04 - fix for networking, applied on Dart too.

update-alternatives --set iptables /usr/sbin/iptables-legacy
update-alternatives --set ip6tables /usr/sbin/ip6tables-legacy

2019-10-03 - Upgraded to Debian Buster (10) and this broke Docker because of the move from iptables to nftables. Must fix ASAP. All Dockers are broken. How dismaying. Repeat after me: "It's only a hobby."

2019-05-09 - Added docker-compose for elasticsearch and per recommendations of ElasticSearch docker docs, changed vm.max_map_count; it was 65530 and I set it: sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

2019-04-26 - Moving NVMe WDC Black drive from Murre to Bellman.

2018-03-20 - Installed 8TB Archive drive, for TimeMachine and Owncloud storage. Moved from 120GB SSD to 750GB Samsung Evo 840. Installed clean copy of Stretch on the SSD.

2017-09-06 - Upgrade to 32GB RAM, yay! I need to do something with all that space. I did move /tmp to RAM; see SSD optimizations. I also removed a lot of dead code including lightdm (how'd that get in there?)

2017-08-25 - Migrated mariabdb and owncloud to Docker

2017-07-25 - Migrated logitech media server to Docker

2017-07-25 - Upgraded to Debian 9 (Stretch)

2016-10-16 - Seeing disk errors in the WDC. It's 6 years old! REPLACE!!! Installed new Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM006 2TB $70 10-26-16 Added a fan in the hard drive section of the case, too.

2016-01-26 - Installed VirtualBox 5.0.14 and Vagrant 1.8.1 (from DEB files, repos are too old) and started migration of services.

2015-12-?? - Moved to hardware formerly used for Vastra2

2015-07-10 - Added lm-sensors and added temperature tracking to Cacti.

2015-07-01 - Replaced APC UPS with Cyberpower. Installed monitoring software.

2015-06-19 - reconnected the MX330 printer and shared it.

2015-06-18 - upgraded to Debian 8 Jessie

2013-12-29 - returned from X-Mas and discovered Bellman won't boot. Snarks about a degraded RAID. Darn.

2013 Mar - Installed Linux Mint 14 so that I could use Makerware with my new Replicator 2

2013 Jan - Seagate Barracuda 2TB Green drive died. ST2000DL003 S/N 5YD77CTE Replaced with a Barracuda 2TB mirror

2011 Dec - Been doing PostGIS experiments so I upgraded the hardware.

2010 Jan - I just started this section but I have had this machine online for at least a couple years now.

2015-06-19 back up

Note this includes /home but not /green.

cd /
tar --one-file-system czvf /mnt/bellman_root.tar.gz .

2013-12-29 Rescue from boot fail

I no longer need a desktop environment on the small server, because I moved my main desktop next to the 3D printer. So I put Debian back on the server again. So I am going to try a Debian rescue image.

Diagnosis

Step 1. Build rescue thumbdrive. Download from http://debian.osuosl.org/ and copy image to thumbdrive

sudo cp debian-live-7.2-amd64-rescue.iso /dev/sdX
sudo sync
sudo eject /dev/sdX

where X is the appropriate drive letter, do NOT use the wrong letter!

Step 2. Boot Bellman with the thumb drive

Step 3. Look around

Using hdparm -i

• sdb Seagate 2TB ST2000DM001-9YN164 S/N Z240BVP5
• sdc Seagate 2TB ST2000DM001-9YN164 S/N Z240A0H1
• sdd rescue drive

Looks like there are 2 RAID's, and md126 is the broken one. It should be the SSD and something else? Time to open the box and see what's in there.

Conclusion - I was planning on doing RAID mirror and never got the second drive installed. I think I might have used it in Stellar instead. Steller's drive failed and needed immediate replacement. Something failed on the SSD and now it's not booting, but this has nothing to do with the hardware from what I can tell. It complains about the RAID missing a drive but that's not new.

2014 Jan 01 rebuild

Do as in the Linux Mint section below

Also note:

PRESERVE MYSQL!!

2013 Mar Linux Mint rebuild

Had to install mdadm and lvm2 but then it recognized the LVM drives All I had to do was mount the RAID on /green.

sudo apt-get install synaptic nfs-kernel-server ssh mysql-server phpmyadmin ntp winbind smartmontools postfix

Re-install dropbox

Re-install squeezeboxserver from Logitech. http://bellman:9000/

Set up cups again

Copy over /etc/exports file

Need AFP support for Apple Timemachine. See Netatalk 3 on Debian

December 2011 upgrade

Bellman had an Intel Little Falls Atom 230 mini-itx main board + 2GB RAM until Dec 2011. Bellman used to be an Athlon desktop system, I recycled the name because I like it.

It has GEN3 PCIe which means this WD Black NVME is about as fast as it will ever get.

Audio

I note that it says it has a microphone array, and that appears to show up in dmesg so I guess it's true? This might mean I need to move the computer up someplace where it can listen to me?

It says it has a DSP too.

Bellman is configured to bring up a management interface on this ethernet interface too. (Optionally there is a separate management interface. This server has 5 ethernet ports, 4 on the motherboard and 1 on the management card.) Since it's a Supermicro possibly it can be pwned at any time by the Chinese. Since I don't use Bellman to control centrifuges or do weapons research I live with it.
