Hi all, I plan to run a dovecot IMAPS and POPS service on our network. We handle about 3 000 mailboxes. I thought first buying a topnotch server (8 cores and 16 Go RAM) with equalogic iSCSI SAN SAS 15K for storage backend. On second though (and after a comprhensive read of dovecot features), I saw in http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailLocation that index files can be created on a separete local

I'm trying to test out an Equallogic PS5500 with a server running CentOS 4.7 I can create a volume and mount it fine using the standard iscsi-initiator-utils tools. The Equallogic box has 3 Gigabit interfaces and I would like to try to set up things so I can read/write from/to the volume using multiple NICs on the server i.e. get 200+ Mbyte/s access to the volume - I've had some

Hi People Using Open iSCSI I have been able to create and mount multiple iSCSI partitions and have them mount at boot. Now I wanted to setup a situation where one of the visible iSCSI partitions mounts at boot and the other is only available if I manually connect to it. This led me to the following command *iscsiadm -m node -T

When I run rsync -v --exclude-from= -a --delete --numeric-ids -e ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa /bin/ root@sandi:/export/home/scbackup/socnt01//bin/ I immediately get: rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359) rsync -v --exclude-from= -a --delete -e ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa /boot/

Having snapshot technology is great. Who else supports it? Thanks. Scott

Hello, I am trying to pass my LSI SAS 2008 controller to my PV domu (openindiana) and I can not get it working. I have read that xen does not support the loading of option ROM''s in pv domu''s and that this support is being, or will be, added. http://markmail.org/thread/2njw43iaurmvzlys This post is more than a year old now. I am wondering if there is a way to get my LSI SAS

Hello, I have encountered a rather strange issue with memory allocation to the domU. I am trying to run FreeBSD in a HVM, my config file is: [root@xen-srv sandi]# cat /etc/xen/vm/freebsd.cfg builder = "hvm" vcpus = 1 memroy = 2048 disk = [ ''phy:/dev/xen-dom0/freebsd,hda,w'' ] name = "freebsd" #vif = [''bridge=xenbr0,mac=00:16:3e:00:af:d8'']

Hello, I am looking into building a workstation using Xen to host several operating systems. Looking at the pci passthrough requirements of Xen4.1 on the VTdHowTo<http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/VTdHowTo>page, I am a little puzzled with the fact that only Intel Core2Duo (with VT-x), Core2Quad, i7 and Core i5 (vPro Brand) CPU''s are supported while motherboards with the i55x0

Hello, I have a small Xen farm of 8 dom0 servers with 64 virtual machines running para-virtualized and this has been working great. Unfortunately, I''ve hit a limit: my iSCSI hardware supports only 512 concurrent connections and so I''m pretty much at the limit. (Wish I would have seen that problem sooner!) Of course, 87% of those connections are idle-- but necessary because I

Hello, I hope that I am posting the correct list with this question. I have been trying to get VGA passthrough working on my system for some time now without success. I do not have the system with me right now, so I will not be able to provide any logs or error messages right now. I will be able to to do so in a couple of hours. I have a VT-d enabled system (Motherboard and CPU) on which I wish

Hello, I have tried to use the blazer_ser driver to interface with my UPS. nut is not able to detect the UPS. I have not been able to find much info regarding Socomec UPS support in nut. Socomec does publish a description of the serial protocol for these UPS's, which can be found here: http://www.socomec.com/download-jbus-modbus.html(select UPS OTHER for device model, 1-5KVA for device power

Hi everybody, i hope that i'm on the right mailing list. I'm having some trouble with xfs and xen. We are running the newest xenserver version with ha on dell servers and a dell equalogic. I set up a fileserver (debian lenny 2.6.29-xs5.5.0.17) with one ext3 partiton for the os and one xfs partition for the data. Two webserver are using this fileserver with nfs. Now i run the second

Hello, I''d like to be able to create a windows DomU which is to be stored on a NAS (Equallogic) device. I was wondering if anyone has any best practices on how to do this? Is there a way to extend the DomU C drive once you create the initial device, etc? Any suggestions would be great. I have already tried this by just using a phy:/dev/path-to-iscsi-mount- point and it appears to

I''m planning on setting up an NFS server for our ESXi hosts and plan on using a virtualized Solaris or Nexenta host to serve ZFS over NFS. The storage I have available is provided by Equallogic boxes over 10Gbe iSCSI. I am trying to figure out the best way to provide both performance and resiliency given the Equallogic provides the redundancy. Since I am hoping to provide a 2TB

Hi List, Does anyone here use Dell Equallogic IP SAN? If so, do you have any immediate high points / low points you wouldn't mind discussing on- or off-list ? Thanks.

Anyone here using the XCP 1.0 Storage EqualLogic has the dell? In Citrix XenServer Xencerter appears to integration, but in XenCenter not with XCP. I read that the drivers were removed. No way around installing the drivers again? Cordialmente, Lorscheider Santiago +55 85 81559040 Msn: lorscheider_santiago@hotmail.com Visite meu blog: http://lsantiago.spaces.live.com Twitter:

We have a Mirror setup in ZFS that''s 73GB (two internal disks on a sun fire v440). We currently are going to attach this system to an Equallogic Box, and will attach an ISCSCI LUN from the Equallogic box to the v440 of about 200gb. The Equallogic Box is configured as a Hardware Raid 50 (two hot spares for redundancy). My question is what''s the best approach to moving the ZFS

Hi, i have a debian Etch x86_64 with a xen 3.1 on a kernel 2.6.18-xen. I have some DomU with Debian Etch.

Hello Folks, This is the long awaited (like 2 weeks) 0.3.12 release of Mongrel. This release has received heavier testing than previous releases and supports a whole raft of improvements to existing functionality plus some new stuff. For those not clued in, Mongrel is a web server written in (mostly) Ruby. Check the funny dogs and read the docs about it at http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/. The
