JunOS - loging on secondary node of a cluster and copying file between nodes

By -
First at all you have to know that you should be able to login to a secondary node of a J/SRX cluster using OOB( out of band management interface - fxp0 ), but, if this is not possible you can do it from the primary node.

In my case there is a cluster of SRX240H2. You have to login into the cluster and check the status of it:
smocanu@srx240h2# run show chassis cluster status
Cluster ID: 1
Node                  Priority          Status    Preempt  Manual failover

Redundancy group: 0 , Failover count: 1
    node0                   100         primary        no       no
    node1                   1           secondary      no       no

Redundancy group: 1 , Failover count: 2
    node0                   100         secondary      no       no
    node1                   1           primary        no       no

{primary:node0}[edit]
If you would like to login into the secondary node from the primary node, you have to make sure that FAB link(s) is/are up and then you have to run the following command:
smocanu@srx240h2# run request routing-engine login node 1

--- JUNOS 12.1X44-D20.3 built 2013-07-19 03:52:31 UTC
{secondary:node1}
smocanu@srx240h2>
If you need to copy files between nodes, you can do that by using "rcp" command as bellow:
{secondary:node1}
smocanu@srx240h2> start shell
% rcp -T /var/log/kmd node1:/var/tmp
%

You should also be able to do that by using cli file command, but for some reasons this is not working for me:
{secondary:node1}[edit]
smocanu@srx240h2# run file copy /var/log/kmd node0:/var/tmp
ssh: Could not resolve hostname node0: hostname nor servname provided, or not known
lost connection
error: put-file failed

JunOS - mount USB stick

By -
There are times when you have to use a USB stick to copy to or from it files to a Juniper router/switch. Fortunetly it will not be to very frequently, but there will be a time when you will need it. JunOS being a UNIX( FreeBSD ) based OS, you have to identify and mount the device attached. First, you have to check the device name, so you can identify it on /dev: smocanu@j2350> show log messages | match mass May 16 15:25:45  j2350 /kernel: umass0: Kingston DataTraveler SE9, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2 May 16 15:25:46  j2350 /kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 Then you have to verify the partition number, usually it is the first one: smocanu@j2350> start shell % ls -las /dev/da0 /dev/da0 /dev/da0s1 Now you can mount your USB stick: % mkdir /var/tmp/usb % mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /var/tmp/usb Once your USB stick is mounted, you can copy to/from it files, using /var/tmp/usb path. Do not forget that you have to umount the USB storage, before removing it fr

Linux: moving moov atom index to the beginning of the file

By -
If you have a streaming server, in my case nginx, and your webmaster is telling you that the movies are not starting to play until the browser have finished buffering it, most likely there is a problem with your video files. To be more specific, your moov atom index is missing or it is at the end of the file. If you're on case two, where the moov atom index is at the end of the file, you can fix it in a few ways. The first way is using ffmpeg: [root@centos6 ~]# ffmpeg -i movie.mp4 -movflags faststart movie-fixed.mp4 The second one, the preferred  way, is using MP4Box: [root@centos6 ~]# MP4Box -add movie.mp4 -isma movie-index.mp4 If you need to automate this fixing process, you cand use something like this:  [root@centos6 ~]# for m in $(ls *.mp4);do MP4Box -add ${m} -isma ${m%%.*}-fixed.mp4

Linux: Versioning the /etc/ configurations using 'etckeeper'

By -
One of the most important things for an administrator is to keep track of the changes. The preferred  way to do that is to use a configuration management system , like ' cfengine ', ' puppet ', ' chef ', ' ansible ' or you named it. Even so, you should still be able to see what exactly was changed on you system and when. I'm using ' etckeeper '  to do that and I'm thinking that it is very useful. The most important Unix distributions are including this software and you can install it by using your favorite package manager. On CentOS6, you can run: [root@centos6 ~]# yum install etckeeper After installing, at least on CentOS, you have to initialize the repository, by running: [root@centos6 ~]# etckeeper init Initialized empty Git repository in /etc/.git/ The last thing is to commit these changes, that means that you will add the entire /etc directory to the repository: [root@centos6 ~]# etckeeper commit -m "initial com
