...d which I am looking for. NFS can be a storage which has it's own pros and cons. There is the option of DRBD but as of now it's limited for two hosts. What options do exist out-there as a solution? The main issues are that the current service is based on Maildir and is on one server with resierfs. The service is composed of one host with 50k users couple disks in raid6. On the same machine we have postfix as mailer. I would like to hear about HA environment that I can use to replicate the boxes. My basic research leaded me to smtp on one host or more and using lmtp to send the messages...

...re mode very similar to when we copy to the main array. Then we tried XFS, which is also journalling, and it too failed, although in a different way. However, when we just do a native copy in Linux from the SCSI drive to the main array, the 32GB file copies fine, so it would seem that neither resierfs in itself nor Samba in itself is choking on the huge files. And yet I see in the archives a recent post from Leroy that he is using resierfs for 30GB files with no problems (although perhaps he doesn't have NT in the picture, I don't know.) So what are the best options at this point? H...

Hi! I was just wondering how Ext3 and Reiserfs compare. When I reinstalled my server (because of a stupid hacker) I took the opportunity to change to ReiserFS. And I have to say it's really much faster than Ext3. I don't have benchmarks, but for example, stuff like "make dep" on the linux kernel is much faster (even though I had enabled write cache when I was using ext3). So

...rect assumption that I can't install CentOS with the CentOSPlus kernel? So I need to split it up: /boot -> 128MB ext3 swap / -> 4 GB ext3 <free space> Then i'll install the OS, upgrade the kernel to the CentOSPlus kernel, install reiserfs-utils, format the free space as resierfs and mount it as /home. This is an older server so I'm trying to suck as much out of it before forcing the company to upgrade. I figure a shiny new 2.6 kernel and reiserfs should buy me some more time. Thoughts? Suggestions? Tips? Thanks, Ajay

I'm in the process of building a home file server and am of course going to use Linux 2.4 (2.4.6 for now...). I'm waffling between resierfs and ext3. I've read the ext3 page and some of the mailing list archives but have a few questions remaining. (I apologize in advance if they are redundant.) Are there any known issues with: - LVM - LVM snapshots (more on that in a sec) - Software RAID 5 - knfsd (including NFS v.3 supp...

hi , our centos os has an ext3 file system. and i cant create any more directories, it gives me a too many links error, even when doing a manual mkdir. is there any workaround for this? without changing it to a different file system like reiserFS? we dont have a reiserfs module in the os so it will have to be installed. and can it be possible to install a reiserFS without having to reformat the

I am looking at ways to harden my asterisk install to prevent computer related issues from happening. I am concerned about about disk write cache. That seems to be a major source of hard drive corruption on power failure. Hard Drive corruption is simply unacceptable for the 99.999% uptime requirements of my Asterisk install that needs to be as reliable as a proprietary PBX. Of course I will be

Hi everyone. I am running Samba 3.2.0-22.1 (as packaged by OpenSUSE in 11.0) on a storage server connected to multiple windows based clients over a gigabit ethernet link. The server is a quad core Intel CPU and is equipped with an Intel e1000 based gigabit ethernet controller and plugged into a common gigabit ethernet switch with the windows clients. I am seeing performance issues on transfers
