Hello everyone,
Do you think the following way to upgrade gmirror 6.2 - 7.1 is safe
for the average person?
(The server is in a remote data center without physical console access.)
1. Backup
2. Remove one of the two SCSI HDDs from the gmirror
3. Install 7.1 on the removed HDD
4. Instruct
We are getting a new web server -
Singe Dual Core Opteron 1212 w/ 4 GB RAM
It will have -
2 x 250 GB SATA gmirror RAID 1
We will run -
- Apache 2.x
- PHP 5.x
- PostgreSQL 8.x
- Postfix 2.x
We have a couple of questions-
If we are more interested in stability than in features and performance
Thank you all for the consistent advice.

We will be running a web server -
- FreeBSD 8.x
- Apache 2.x
- php 5.x
- PostgreSQL 8.x
- Postfix 2.x
- The server will run nearly 98% of the time below 25% load (no high
performance firewall is needed).
- Access to the server will be done only via ssh w/ key (there will be no
public ftp,
Thank you all for your help.
Two for PF and one for IPFILTER - I'll have to do some math now :)

Does anyone know a place to host FreeBSD in a cloud?
Rackspace offer quite interesting cloud servers via www.mosso.com -
but they claim they run only Linux.
We have had FreeBSD with Rackspace for over 5 years (though they
refuse to officially support it) and I cannot understand if they
Is there a standard way to access, with a scripting language (php, perl,
etc.) the output of -
iostat -x
I am particularly interested in the %b column (HDD utilization).
I am not sure if reading the output and regex-ing the Nth column is the
right approach, or there is a more intelligent

What do you mean by access?
I mean read, sorry for the unclear question.
A simple way to get the output would be(presuming the 8th column has the
data you want):
iostat -x | awk '{ print $8 }'
This could be redirected to a file or processed ins a shell script etc.

Just did some tests and found out the same -
csup freezes when the Free memory ends (the virtual machine has 512 MB RAM).
Is this a known issue, and is there a workaround?
Thank you,

I am trying to build a VMware twin of an existing production server

If 1.6.12 was already installed, I would use portdowngrade.

Hello everyone,
I have been using FreeBSD since 4.x for web related applications (php, Apache,
PostgreSQL, Postfix, Cyrus IMAP, etc.), and while I am not an expert, I feel
quite comfortable.
Lately I find myself in situations where I have I have to take care of legacy

What virtulization system to use? Personnally I use ESXi from vmware
This was a great tip, thank you. I wasn't aware that ESXi is a bare metal and
free.
What OS to use instead of FreeBSD? It depends on what is recommended
for your application, what resources you have available around you,

One caveat is that ESX / ESXi are very picky about their hardware

Yes, I'm aware of that. We have entry level, but ESXi compatible, HP and IBM

Yes, that's what I think, too.
