...mU's to auto failover between the 2 servers if either goes down (hardware failure / overload / kernel updates / etc). What is the best way to connect a NAS / SAN to these 2 servers for this kind of setup to work flawlessly? The NAS can export iSCSI, NFS, SMB, etc. I'm sure I could even use ATAOE if needed -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

...are with a cluster of Dovecot servers. We clearly need a shared mail store for these servers, but we are not happy with simply using a server running NFS as this becomes a single point of failure. What have other people used? AFAICT our options are: * A shared block device (Fibre Channel, iSCSI, ATAoE etc) running GFS or similar to allow multiple servers to access it concurrently * Two or more NFS units, either with built-in support for replication of FS changes and failover, or with scripts for achieving this functionality I prefer option 1, although it's expensive. What have other peop...

...could be written that would do all the USB discovery and setup, and so on, and then install BIOS-like API support for them, so that the system could end up successfully booting from those devices, even when the real BIOS couldn't do it directly. This would be useful for USB, FireWire, PXE, ATAoE, iSCSI, various other exotic protocols, various older nonstandard devices, and pretty much anything that can be discovered and booted from. It would be something that could start from something as simple as a floppy, and then chain from there to any other device. Would such a thing be possib...

Does anybody know a FreeNAS-like solution, that supports AoE? - Ata over Ethernet? Thank you!

Hi. Here is the short version: If dom0 experiences a short (< 120 second) network outage the guests whose disks are on iSCSI LUNs get (seemingly) unrecoverable IO errors. Is it possible to make Xen more resiliant to such problems? And now the full version: We''re testing Xen on iSCSI LUNs. The hardware/software configuration is: * Dom0 and guest OS: SLES10 x86_64 * iSCSI LUN on

Hi, I''m looking to build a virtualized web hosting server environment accessing files on a hybrid storage SAN. I was looking at using the Sun X-Fire x4540 with the following configuration: - 6 RAID-Z vdevs with one hot spare each (all 500GB 7200RPM SATA drives) - 2 Intel X-25 32GB SSD''s as a mirrored ZIL - 4 Intel X-25 64GB SSD''s as the L2ARC. -
