Just calling on the wisdom of the group to ask what is the currently
preferred Linux distro for running UV?
iirc, if you want a *supported* environment, you want RHEL or SLES.
Bearing in mind CentOS is the same as RHEL, and OpenSUSE is close to
SLES, those would be options. Fedora of course is RedHat, so you're
probably okay there.
But as far as I'm aware, it should run on most distros without problems,
it's just the installer that will give you grief. The two things to
watch out there that I'm aware of are that one of the cpio options has
reversed its meaning - you may have to remove or add an argument, and of
course the rc.d environment varies between distros so you may have to
configure the UV startup stuff manually.
We will be putting low user count development & test environments on it
and ultimately we are trying to emulate as closely as possible our AIX 5.3
production environment. We are currently using Fedora Core 6 32bit but I feel
we should go up to a newer 64 bit platform.
Cheers,
Wol
