The standard controller that has been recommended in the past is the AOC-SAT2-MV8 - an 8 port with a marvel chipset. There have been several mentions of LSI based controllers on the mailing lists and I''m wondering about them. One obvious difference is that the Marvel contoller is PCI-X and the LSI controllers are PCI-E. Supermicro have several LSI controllers. AOC-USASLP-L8i with the

http://www.kerneltraffic.org/kernel-traffic/kt20031201_243.html --- Relevant section --- Nuno Silva mentioned: The good people at Cambridge made a (very nice) VMM that exploits ring0/1/3 to let one machine run various kernels independently (the kernels need to be ported to the xen arch). Xen itself executes in ring0 and the "guest" operating systems execute in ring1.

I have a 24 x 1TB system being used as an NFS file server. Seagate SAS disks connected via an LSI 9211-8i SAS controller, disk layout 2 x 11 disk RAIDZ2 + 2 spares. I am using 2 x DDR Drive X1s as the ZIL. When we write anything to it, the writes are always very bursty like this: ool 488K 20.0T 0 0 0 0 xpool 488K 20.0T 0 0 0 0 xpool

Chip Clock HT Cache Bus Speed --------------------------------------------------------- 5080 3.7 GHz YES 2MB 1066 MHz 5160 3.0 GHz NO 4MB 1333 MHz Does the .7 GHz and HT worth more then 4MB cache and higher bus speed? The application is VoIP so there is not a lot of IO so I would not think Bus Speed would matter. I am finding mixed information on HT, some say it is great, others say it

Hello, We are going to buy some NFS storage for 6-8 VMs on a single host, but want to expand to a second host. What storage recommendations would you give if you have between 2000 and 5000 USD? How about nexenta? what hardware would you use? any vendor? Experiences with openfiler and opennas? Thanks for the responses. Daniel -- +-=====---------------------------+ |

My first computer was a Mac (SE30) but it was also my last so I am not without appreciation of Apples wonderful aptitude for design. Without starting a flame-fest why do so many ruby and rails developers use a Mac ? It seems to be a commonality within the ruby and RoR community. Especially laptops. The first ruby users group meeting I attended was about 50% Macs (or so it seemed to me - I

Hello, Re: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7-Beta/html/7.3_Release_Notes/bug_fixes_general_updates.html Are there any upcoming plans for turning off the use of legacy interface names in the next official CentOS 7.x AMI? Currently, both the official RHEL 7.3 GA AMI and the latest available official CentOS-7 x86_64 AMI use legacy interface names via either:

This is incredible, Mr Sandeen. You mean USB flash manufacturers (what's their body - the USB Implementer's Forum?) have

I know this list is meant for discussion of compiz specifically, but .... 1) I sometimes see compiz spit out "Could not bind pixmap to texture" messages, even though it _appears_ to be working fine. I randomly guess that this is due to me running out of video memory (iirc I have 64mb of vram). Is that possibly a problem? I think Vista and OS X manually manage video

Hello! Please, help me, I''m totally lost choosing basic budget server for XEN. The variants are Sun (X2200 M2 or Sun X2250 M2) or maybe HP Proliant DL160 G5p. Or maybe some IBM server? Which X2200 configuration will perform better, two Opteron dual-core 22xx or single quad-core 23xx? Which one performing better nowadays, Opteron or Xeon? I know that 2-3 years ago Opteron was the

I am pleased to announce the release of GUK (Project Guest VM Microkernel), which is an enhanced version of Mini-OS that underpins the Guest VM virtual machine. Guest VM is an implementation of the Java platform, written almost completely in Java, running directly on Xen. Although GUK was developed specifically for Guest VM, it can be used stand-alone in a similar way to Mini-OS. The main

I have just bought a powermac G5 to expand my recording studio and cannot open my .exe software! My mac has PPC processor and cannot run most wine things (Crossover, Darwine) or has failed when I have tried. I cannot record until this is done so please HELP THIS POOR LAD IN NEED!

Hi Folks, A recent exchange on the 'octave' list led to the following paper being cited, which I had not met before: What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic, by David Goldberg, originally published in the March, 1991 issue of Computing Surveys. PDF and HTML versions are widely available on the web (see Google), e.g. at

Greets Anyone on the list using newer HP G4 or G5 server hardware like DL36X or DL38X with Centos? Or other HP hardware? Are you running Intel, AMD, or both? Are you using SAS or SATA or a mix? Are you using Centos 3, CentOS 4, or starting migration to CentOS 5 Are things rock solid stable without any issues? I know older Compaq and HP boxen have been rock solid for us for years yet we

Hi All, Now that this thread has accumulated some feedback, I thought I'd try to summarize my thoughts on error handling in LLVM, and why I think this proposal is worth adopting: (1) Failure to check an error *is* a programmatic error, and our error system should reflect this. This makes it easy to spot mistakes in our error handling and correct them. (2) Error returns should describe all

Hi, recently we (oVirt) have started discussing whether the way virt-v2v handles import from OVA files is good. And I would be interested in ideas how it can be improved. It is likely somebody already gave some thought to this problem. TL;DR: Extracting the OVA before import is a problem for large VMs (in sizes of TBs). Can we change something to prevent the extraction and work directly over
