RE: [Vserver] Physical to virtual ?
There is a page on this in the wiki and on the forums of openvz ( openvz is similar to vserver and so the same applies but you need to take care of the differences in commands and data files. ) Basically the procedure is to create a newvserver with the minimum requirement having the same dstribution and IP as your physical server then copy the directories preferable with rsync to the vserver make sure that you do not copy /proc or /dev directories. Then you need to manually edit a few files and remove a few services.

RE: [Vserver] 64bit centos templates?
About the 64 bit issue and performance. When running on AMD always go for 64bit if you can. When running on Intel, older 64bit implementations are sometimes slower in 64bit than in 32bit. That also holds to newer intel processors including core 2 duo but to a lesser extent where in some benchmarkes it was faster and in some it was slower.

Re: [Vserver] Plesk 7
sorry this is a side track how did you update your system via yum, i tried it in virtuozzo and it would not install basic things like GCC with out conflicting with other packages, the rpm package itself inside virtuozo is not the normal version and many things depend a new standard version of rpm. If this is too off topic please send me your experience to [EMAIL PROTECTED] directly. - Original Message - From: Justin Fielding [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 02, 2004 11:36 AM Subject: Re: [Vserver] Plesk 7 I have been working on plesk for two years, yes it has some bad points users love it. Simplifies life. Do you have any idea how your host installed it in a vserver? They didn't. As I said, my virtual server is via Virtuozzo (or whatever they call it) produced by sw-soft. It's not running vserver. The think I dislike most about plesk is the way it stops you from upgrading software (spamassassin would be an example), and if you make a custom change or upgrade, when they release the next patch, you can't install it without destroying and modifications to the system. For example, 7.1.5 is now out, but I can't upgrade without destroying my custom qmail/clamav/spamassassin3 install, so I will just have to stay with 7.1.4 and address security issues by using yum to keep things up to date. As for the 'cheap' server Vs expensive server (but divided). I would rather have two AMD64 PC's, with hardware SATA RAID, lot's of ram, clustered to each other via fiber, than I would have one expensive server. It would still be cheaper, and something freak (such as a motherboard / memory /cpu failure) would still not take it down. I imagine the performance would be pretty much equal unless you were trying to run a hotmail mirror! Still, I'm stuck on a $40 VPS now so it's all speculation.

Do yourself a favor, stay well away from plesk. It may look pretty and
have
a few nice features, but I have it on a VPS and it takes so much control
of
the system, it stops you upgrading certain packages (e.g. mysql), it uses
it's own highly modified packages for some areas of the server etc. Just
save yourself the headache and use something else.
Unfortunaly I had to use plesk as it was part of the VPS package. I could
not find a comparable Vserver host for the same kind of money. I get 15GB
of space, 256MB dedicated ram etc etc for $40. Vserver setups seem to
give
less for more money, some jokers even try and charge $100 for a Vserver
with
5GB of disk space etc, but you can get yourself a dedicated server for
that!
Anyway, just don't use plesk, thats all I can say :)

Re: [Vserver] Reiser4 views/process oriented security proposal
I know this is not the core of this list but could you elaborate on how is hardware bad these days. What kinds of tests do you run to reduce this. I see that you have very very valueable know-how and would really appreciate it :) Avery Pennarun wrote: On Tue, Aug 03, 2004 at 10:11:22AM +1200, Sam Vilain wrote: Reiserfs3 is supposed to be stable , but the last time I had a filesystem gain mysterious unstat()able inodes with it was only months ago, with 2.4.25. For what it's worth, we use reiser3 on every server we sell (several thousand so far) and have never run into reiser random corruption problems except in the case of hardware that later turned out to be definitely faulty. We always run a memory test on every server before it ships, and we return about 25% of motherboards to the manufacturer before shipping because of this :( Some computers do go bad about a year later, eg. because of the exploding capacitor problem that started a couple of years ago. Computers nowadays are *really* badly made. It's hard to believe until you have a large sample size, but it's true. Have fun, Avery P.S. On the other hand, at least you know e2fsck has been well tested. Nobody ever actually runs reiserfsck, which doesn't help its reliability. ___ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver ___ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
[Vserver] SMP and Raid
I have to questions thank you for any answers in advance. How do I compile latest 1.28 for SMP ( dual xeons I am dreaming to get ) Does anyone know of a good SATA raid controller that is known to work with vserver in any RH based distro for the main server? Thank you again. ___ Vserver mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
Re: [Vserver] Vserver and Unreal tournament server
I ran it on another server having the latest vserver 1.27 and it worked.
