Citation: http://www.zimbra.com/forums/announcements/14116-centos-not-supported.html Based upon my experience with Zimbra (and other similar vendors), I'm a big fan of NOT having anything that they don't explicitly support touching the Zimbra box. It helps keep the fingerpointing to a minimum when things end up going wrong; if they can point to the OS as a reason to claim a box is unsupported, they will; compared to the cost of a Zimbra license, the $400 or whatnot for RHEL is inconsequential. -- Corey / KB1JWQ ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

John R Pierce wrote: indeed, and the followup links to... http://www.zimbra.com/forums/announcements/14213-our-centos-users.html which clarifies that the CentOS4 problem in the prior bulletin turned out to be a customer-installed Perl 5.8.8 which caused problems with Scalar::Util and that in fact, stock CentOS 4.5 and 4.6 worked just fine for them. Absolutely-- but you'll note that even though the issue was customer inflicted, their FIRST response was to say CentOS isn't supported! Had the customer been running RHEL, there wouldn't have been a 50 hour delay between CentOS is the problem! and Er, looks like it was an extra package the customer had installed. Works on RHEL, you're running CentOS, while a canard in most cases, is very easy for a support organization to trot out. Of course, your mileage may vary... The real issue is, when running complex multi-faceted software systems, you really can't just update things at random and expect it to all play nicely.

Who uses this type of method for getting help anyway? Aren't the days of Bulletin Board BBS's gone? People who know how to concisely ask a question, mostly. Anyway... I installed ZCS for the first time today. Most things are running except I cannot send or receive mail. I get MTA errors. I assume that it is not running. When I send I get unable to connect to MTA.

One thing to be clear on is that Zimbra changes a LOT on your box; that's why in production I've always run it within its own VM, so it can break anything it likes without affecting anything I care about. I have not done anything with Postfix at allU am sure it is the Fatal Bind message above, do I need to configure Postfix? I thought Zimbra did that on install? Yup. It does.

What about striping the 4 1TB and mirroring that to a 4 x 1tb External drive enclosure? Plan for drives going out but keeping the site operational. Also remember that RAID isn't a backup. RAID 5 is enticing because you get more usable space out of your drives, but you have to be sure you'll only lose one drive at a time and can get a replacement drive in there and sync'ed up before you lose a 2nd one... If the drives were made by the same manufacturer and were bought at about the same time you might easily lose 2 or more, blowing up your array. Right. The problem with 1TB drives (and really, any modern drive with decent capacity) is that you're vulnerable until that array finishes rebuilding-- a process that's taking longer and longer. I'd go with the RAID10 solution that someone previously posited. By the time you outgrow that, you should really plan for a SAN/NAS solution anyway... -- Corey / KB1JWQ ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
