I don't know but I have a similar problem. just slightly larger scale,
I also need to run a big municipal database on one of my servers using
postgres.
I was thinking of
2 Servers, (Large Hard Disks) to store users files and database (they hopfully
won't have that many files)
1 Application server to run the apps on running LTSP (mounting the users files
over NFS)
That way everything that needs regularly backing up is on one set of servers
and the application server can be a semi static image and if its too slow we
can add a second (nearly identical similar machine)
I'm guessing this will work out that the Application server will need lots of
memory, where as the file server will need lots of disk space. But only needs
to be powerful enough to do the database and file handerling leg work.
I don't know wether thats the right way to go.
Is it worth trying to keep static apps aways from the applications on
separate servers with LTSP?
Any Ideas?
