Re: Raid Implemntation
Hi, As per 'vinum' in the handbook, we cannot do the mirroing for System files. we can do only to Data partition. Other wise we have to do the RAID-5. Any other way we can implement mirroing. If I understand what you are saying - this is not true. You can do mirroring on the systemn slices too. Please post to the list too and not just me. Other people know much more about this than do I. jerry ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Raid Implemntation
HI, We having free BSD 4.8 Server for backup, we are copying and write all in CDs. Is there is any provision for a)implementing disk mirroring in Free BSD server (for both System Datafiles) Yes. Look up 'vinum' in the handbook. b)Is it possible to make any backup NIS server, which will backup the data will come up when Primary server goes down. I think it is a bit more complicated than you state it. Better let someone else answer that. Can you please revert with details. ?? Do you mean 'reply' with details? jerry Thanking you Rathan ___ ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Yes, it's possible to promote a backup NIS server to be the master if the master NIS server goes down. Normally, that level of failover doesn't need to happen: if you have a problem and the master goes down, the clone server stays up read-only while you fix the master. You'd promote the backup/clone NIS server only if you couldn't fix or restore the master... -- -Chuck ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
