Hello everyone, I am currently running Dovecot as a high performance solution to a particular kind of problem. My userbase is small, but it murders email servers. The volume is moderate, but message retention requirements are stringent, to put it nicely. Many users receive a high volume of email traffic, but want to keep every message, and *search* them. This produces mail accounts up to

Hi All, I am trying to determine whether a mail server cluster based on Dovecot will be capable of supporting 500,000+ mailboxes with about 50,000 IMAP and 5000 active POP3 connections. I have looked at the Dovecot clustering suggestions here: http://blog.dovecot.org/2012/02/dovecot-clustering-with-dsync-based.html and some other Dovecot mailing list threads but I am not sure how many

Hi, Today I was trying to start a node using libvirt on ESX (esxi-5.1) hypervisor and I got the following error message: *virsh # define /local/myNode/esxdomain.xml* *Domain testNode defined from /local/myNode/esxdomain.xml* *virsh # start testNode* *error: Failed to start domain testNode* *error: internal error: Could not start domain: GenericVmConfigFault - Cannot open the disk

I always used IET on CentOS but I have a quick server to setup to backup some VM's, then migrate to DAS on another server and the easiest way for me will be to accomplish this via iSCSI vmfs stores. I figured I would just use the ini that ships with CentOS but have never used it against ESX, anyone do this and have experiences they care to share? Should it be trivial or are there any non

Thanks a ton for the reply Matthias. I am little confused here. How to add volume on my esx server using virsh? I did SCP and copied my vmdk image to [datastore1] testNode/cluster.vmdk and also modified my xml file as you suggested. Now when I tried starting the node it gave me an error message saying: "error: Failed to start testNode error: internal error: Could not start domain:

I''m not sure if this is a problem with the iscsitarget or zfs. I''d greatly appreciate it if it gets moved to the proper list. Well I''m just about out of ideas on what might be wrong.. Quick history: I installed OS 2008.05 when it was SNV_86 to try out ZFS with VMWare. Found out that multilun''s were being treated as multipaths so waited till SNV_94 came out to

Hi *, I am currently in the planning stage for a "new and improved" mail system at my university. Right now, everything is on one big backend server but this is causing me increasing amounts of pain, beginning with the time a full backup takes. So naturally, I want to split this big server into smaller ones. To keep things simple, I want to pin a user to a server so I can avoid

I just came back after being out for the evening. Apparently there was a power failure long enough to discharge the UPS completely on my Linux box. After powering back up, I received notice that the / filesystem needed "manual fsck"ing. I booted off CD and attempted to fsck. Unfortunately, everything I've tried has proved futile and I'm _desperate_ for some help. I've

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

Guys! I have one fiber channel IBM storage (10T) and 8 HP Proliant servers with 32G of RAM on each and 1 HP with 4G of RAM. My question is: * How to use the same storage (block device) with all my different virtualization servers simultaneously? I have 2 open source Xen with CentOS 5.4, 2 VMWare ESX, 2 Citrix XenServer, 2 KVM powered by Ubuntu and 1 Debian exporting the IBM storage to a SAN

To Whom It May concern: I found that the following error is caused by adding a scsi disk to install the os, I remove the scsi disk and the error remove but still report 'out of memory': virsh # dumpxml win2003_122 internal error Invalid or not yet handled value '/vmfs/devices/genscsi/mp x.vmhba0:C0:T1:L0' for VMX entry 'scsi0:1.fileName' virsh # list --all Id Name

I''m looking for input on building an HA configuration for ZFS. I''ve read the FAQ and understand that the standard approach is to have a standby system with access to a shared pool that is imported during a failover. The problem is that we use ZFS for a specialized purpose that results in 10''s of thousands of filesystems (mostly snapshots and clones). All versions of

The first patch was previously posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-December/msg00018.html That patch hasn't changed except that I made the ‘input_transport’ variable type-safe. The second patch adds a significant new mode for liberating data from VMware: the ability to copy VMs over SSH directly from ESXi hypervisors. Although this requires enabling SSH access (a

I'm considering upgrading, and am trying to choose a modern motherboard that nevertheless fully works with Centos5/RHEL5. Though I'm partial to AMD processors, and would like to use one in my new configuration, that's not a requirement, if the most appropriate board happens to be intel-compatible. However, given the way ASUS is dumping LInux and crawling more firmly into bed with
