Re: [e-smith-devinfo] Redundant Power Supies
Richard, congratulations on the great purchase! We just built one with the Tyan MB, Dual 1.3's, 3 3Ware 7800's with 24 IBM 75GXP drives, but only 512 ECC DDR registered ram (for now). Also running XFS on the Raid5 arrays.=20 Sorry for the rant, just exciting to put a monster together . . . Anyway, back to your question about redundancy. 1. Power supply redundancy is all hardware. For instance the big MB connector and the drive power connectors don't attach directly to the power supply--they go to a redundant power supply backplane which has the removable power supply boxes in them. The backplane just uses one (I think), but can instantly swith to the other if one fails. This backplane can also flash lights or make a noise when one fails (just depends on the case and backplane, as these are usually sold together). I don't know about finding a redundant backplane and power supplies for that MB (we couldn't when we ordered), but good luck and please let me know if you find any. 2. Ethernet redundancy for that MB would be setup in Linux, but I don't know how. Might want to look at ethernet bonding in linux if you have switches that can do it -- nothing like 200Mbs full-duplex! Good luck, and if you get the chance, please keep me posted on progress (always looking for new ideas).

[e-smith-devinfo] Distinctive ring and Hylafax
Can Hyla fax and the modem it uses be set to use distinctive ring? I assume that the init string that hylafax uses is ATS=0 or 1 which is the auto answer command. Would there (Or is there) be a string for distinctive ring auto answer? Richard Ford.

Re: [e-smith-devinfo] Redundant Power Supies
I'm experienced with HP-UX on HA, my experience told me that a floating IP can be used in such cases. I've built clusters with that. So I guess there should be similar stuff in the Linux cluster software... So you may want to look at there as a start. Kai.

[e-smith-devinfo] Modifying /etc/fstab
I want to add an additional mount to /etc/fstab (for an smb file system to enable me to back up my home e-smith box to my W2K workstation). I noticed that fstab is not included in the template system. I know what I need to do (and in fact have tested it successfully), but am interested in polling this group to see whether there is a consensus around adding local changes such as this to the template system, or simply making them in place. What do all the gurus out there think?
