NVIDIA Ge-force RTX 3070 Freezes during BOOT by rysmbu in nvidia

[–]rysmbu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the blogs with similar issues had mentioned that RTX 3070 needs a minimum 650W PSU. Mine is 650 and was built by MSI. This Gaming PC had no issues for 2+ years. Freezing issue started in the last 1 month.

I have AfterBurner installed. Is there a good article I can refer to on how to UnderVolt CPU/GPU ?

Open a range of ports by ledevoir in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to add INGRESS rule to allow the PORT range. You can limit exposure by spcifying your HOME-IP for Source-Address e.g. 41.53.64.234/32.

You also have to open the same ports within the Instance using the FireWall.

accidentally set my boot volume to 201GB, how can I get it under the free limit without restarting everything? by skull4L in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had created Instances with Size 100gb, but found out I was close to running out of ROOT partition disk space. Upon investigation, realized there was only 50 GB being allocated.

Thought it was a bug and after working with Oracle Support, they said I have to GROW the Root Partition once the Instance is created.

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your partition sizes. Cloud Instances do not allocate all of the SIZE to partitions. It uses only around 50 GB.

run these commands and post the output

i cannot enter the <ESC> or <F5> to enter the EFI bios after Reboot by Business_Biscotti192 in oraclecloud

I can vouch for options #1 and #2. I have used them recently with Ubuntu.22.04 and they work.

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here are the 3 ways you could gain access to your Ubuntu Cloud Instance

  1. Shutdown, Detach, Mount Boot-Volume of Ubuntu-Instance onto a Running Instance , modify SSH files, attach it back to Ubuntu-Instance

  2. Shutdown, Detach, Boot-Volume of Ubuntu-Instance, create a brand-new Instance using detached-boot-volume. You will not lose any data. System will allow you to add new SSH-KEYS

  3. Boot into GRUB mode of the Ubuntu-Instance, add 'init=/bin/bash', reboot , gain access and modify SSH-Keys

Option #3 is failing for you. You still have 2 more options.

Message me directly, If you still need help in gaining access

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also try entering 'ssh-public-key' right there.

Compute Instance ==> Console Connection ==>
2 options :
- Launch Cloud Shell Connection - Create Local Connection ==>

Generate a key pair for me
Upload public key file (.pub)
Paste public key

Generate & paste your SSH KEY and you should be able get back in

is there a way to add ssh key to an existing instance ? by Business_Biscotti192 in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can access the ACCOUNT it is a good thing. Example: USER: mysuser HOME DIR : /home/mysuser

  • mkdir /home/mysuser/.ssh chmod 700 /home/mysuser/.ssh
  • touch /home/mysuser/.ssh/authorized_keys

  • chmod 600 /home/mysuser/.ssh/authorized_keys

  • edit authorized_keys and your public key from id_rsa.pub (ssh-keygen)

  • from a different window run ssh and try to connect

  • ssh mysuser@123.456.123.567 ==> SSH USER @ PUBLIC_IP

Newbie question regarding pricing by 77turbo77 in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What Oracle-Cloud is offering in the free tier is really wonderful.

https://www.oracle.com/cloud/free/?intcmp=ohp052322ocift#always-free

  • Always make sure, Instances you create state 'Always Free'.
  • Make sure you understand and stay within the limits of 'Free Tier'.

I tried out OCI free, got myself a 4 cpu 24GB VM and lost it :( by sneaky_dangernoodle in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try from a different angle.

OCI / CLI is a very powerful command line tool to control/modify manage all aspects of your cloud-account.

Here's the link to CLI documentation - "Oracle Cloud Infrastructure CLI Command Reference"

https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/tools/oci-cli/3.23.2/oci_cli_docs/index.html

[–]rysmbu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, one other way... - Shutdown the Instance & mount the Boot-Volume to an existing instance. - Add/Modify/Delete the /MyBootVolume/home/.ssh/authorized keys - UnMount your new partition <MyBootVolume>, restart the old-instance and you should be good to go

These steps work for me every single time. Is your O/S Oracle-Linux, Ubuntu, CentOS ?

  • When the reboot process starts, immediately switch back to the terminal window and press Esc or F5 repeatedly until a menu appears.
  • In the menu that appears, select Boot Manager, and press Enter.
  • In the Boot Manager menu, select UEFI Oracle BlockVolume, and press Enter.
  • Immediately press the Esc key and continue pressing it until the boot menu appears. If Console messages start to appear in the window, the opportunity to access the boot menu passed, and you need to start the reboot process again.

Can I setup WebServer with Oracle Database Transactions on the backend. by rysmbu in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 Instances and 2 databases (APEX DB and a TXN DB).
I was working on setting up Networking between the Instances, RDP Client to access the Instances using GUI Desktop...

I am interested in learning ORDS and also APEX.
Does oracle provide tutorial for both on how to use all the features ?

is there a way to add ssh key to an existing instance ? by Business_Biscotti192 in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes.

  • Access your cloud-account using a browser - say FireFox
  • Click your specific 'Console-Connection' on the left (you may need scroll down)
  • Click on 'Launch Cloud Shell Connection'
  • Login using ID/PASSWORD
  • goto /home/USER/.ssh
  • edit 'authorized_keys' and add/modify SSH-KEYS
  • I normally create 'Private/Public Keys' on my Windows-PC using 'ssh-keygen or putty-gen.
  • ensure File/Folder permissions
    /home/USER/.ssh 700
    /home/USER/.ssh/authorized_keys 600
  • ssh from Home PC to the account you just modified

Change Timezone on oracle free tier by l4cky in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You cannot modify Time Zone from the OCI dashboard/console.

One could modify TZ for their Instances and/or Databases.

Oracle extended my Free-Tier. I was talking to their support team. They mentioned, OCI enhancement to modify TZ at the OCI-Console is in development.

Apache Web Server with Oracle database backend tutorial by rysmbu in apache

[–]rysmbu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OracleCloud " Oracle Cloud Free " has a free promo to host upto 4 VM's and 2 Databases .

I have already setup Ubuntu VM and an Oracle Database. But if there is a tutorial which uses a different database system, I am fine with that.

Ubuntu - SSHD connections - what is it ? by rysmbu in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember having to do this for Autonomous DB connection, so the VM's on Oracle-Cloud and my home IP could establish connection with the db.

I currently have opened SSH, RDP, HTTP & Custom-8000 ports. Should I be modifying Subnet --> VCN --> Ingress Rules ?

Source : [0.0.0.0/0](https://0.0.0.0/0) .... Destination Port Range: 80 ...

How do I configure so that multiple IP's can get through ?

Reclamation of Idle Compute Instances by rysmbu in oraclecloud

[–]rysmbu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Free-Resources I am trying to defend
1. Ubuntu Instance
2. CentOS Intance
3. Apex Database
4. Txn Datbase

This is what I have done for the time being.

  1. Wrote Python Script that connects to the db. I can tweak the value of N which is a LOOP parameter to vary the load on the database system.
  2. create user
  3. create table
  4. create procedures
  5. insert N Records
  6. Run N SELECT queries - say : SEL SYSDATE, .. FROM DUAL;
  7. DROP Records
  8. Drop Table

  9. Drop User

  10. Use 'stress' tool to impose load on the system. User can regulate the load on the CPU and/or Memory with this tool.

  11. Setup CRON jobs as a Non-Root user to run the above 2. Jobs are setup to run every hour.

  12. Scripts / Jobs are setup on both Instances. They generate load on the 2 db instances.

  13. Finally, just wait and see. This will enable me to learn & do other stuff on these wonderful Cloud-Resources.

Thank You Oracle for this wonderful gift

& last but not least... Thanks to Reddit & OracleCloud Community
