I have the following server setup: one Linux-based robust server (containing robust, sql, and initial welcome region), one linux-based region server, and one Windows 7-based region server.
My primary reason for moving from a windows-based windows server to linux-based is for the opportunity to implement an MTA and get the capability of in-world email working. Everything is fine and all are working correctly. I have yet to set up Exim4 yet, getting SQL rebuilt (part of reason to move to linux as well) due to table data messing up. The technical question I have and I cannot seem to find an answer for it (maybe it is too greenhorn to be posted?) is - does the region server monitor and push out the mail or does the linux-base robust server do this? Reason I ask is that I am trying to find the limits of the linux-based region server (as far as how many regions can be put online, given the hardware constraints I currently have) - and I may have just done that. Do to the complexities of what I understand the linux-based computer operating system? I am told that the limits off the virtual swap partition is 2GB. I would prefer to operate my region servers on a windows-based operating system quite simply because the virtual system can be pushed to the limits of the hard drive. I would also entertain a Virtual Machine via software, but I wish to not entertain it at the current time. Can anyone provide a technical answer on all of this information I have provided, and please, when you are responding I would like your real-world experiences and the pro's and con's of what you are recommending, if at all possible. Thanks and looking forward to the techno responses, Randy
