Web Server Partition
My PHP/MySQL web application will be put in a unix/linux environment, and the guy who is setting up the server is asking me this:
Do you have any partition requirements?
I don't know too much about hardware, how should I answer him? do you have any suggestions?

Raid Disk Partition Errorc :: Warning: Invalid Flag 0x0000 Of Partition Table
I have a disk in raid, but it seems raid is not working correctly. I took it out, and plug into another server without raid. However, fdisk shows error Quote: #fdisk /dev/sdb device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel Building a new DOS disklabel. Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous content won't be recoverable. The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 20023. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Warning: invalid flag 0x0000 of partition table 4 will be corrected by w(rite) Command (m for help): Should I correct the partition table now, or should I put it in another raid for checking?

Input/output Error On /home Partition On A Freebsd Server
I'm getting the feared "input/output error" on /home partition on a freebsd server this server runs RAID-1, dmesg shows: twed0: controller error - device failure (flags = 0x40) g_vfs_done():twed0s1g[READ(offset=36997054464, length=16384)]error = 5 anyone knows what's my best action here? unmount /home and fsck it? or shutdown the server and replace a drive? (but, from this error message, I couldn't guess which drive is it... also, the 3dm raid monitoring didn't find any problem, so maybe it's the controller?)

New Partition
I have migrated one raptor disk to a 4 raptor raid 10 disks. I was threated to being blocked from their helpdesk because they say it is a hardware issue.

Creating A New Partition
The server I got from LayeredTech has two hard drives, obviously they set up the first hard drive with Linux etc. The second hard drive is just there, not showing any partitions in 'fdisk' when I checked, so I assume they just leave it blank in every new server for the owner to deal with however they want. I've been looking up guides to create a new partition for the full size of the hard drive and then mount it. However, it hasn't been very successful. Everytime I created the partition in fdisk, I have to set a size, and then when I mount it, it only says that the drive is ~98MB big. Is there a way to partition the drive to its full capacity? And then mount it somewhere on the system? Or anywhere I can go to to find out easily?

Resizing Partition
I recently ordered a new dedicated machine and for some reason the guys set it up so the /home partition is a massive 250GB, and the / partition is a tiny 20GB. Since that's where all the plesk domains will be storing their files, I'd like to resize things a bit. I'm thinking of making the / partition 200GB and the rest for /home It's a CentOS machine and the filesystems are ext3. How can I do this resizing, and are there any caveats I should be aware of?

How To Partition Drive
im assembling my server now....waiting on the 90degree connectors. It is as follows: SUPERMICRO CSE-512L-260B Black 14" Mini 1U Server Case ASUS M2N-MX SE Plus AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ Brisbane 2.2GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core Processor Dynatron A48G 70mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler - Retail 2gb ddr2 6400 ram Seagate 500gb 7200.11 32mb hdd WD 37gb raptor 10k rpm the wd drive was lying around the house so i figured id add it since i had an extra slot and figured the speed wouldnt hurt. My question is....how should i partition the drives.? I have 500+gb of space on 2 hard drives. I plan on using centos 5.1 and am downloading the iso now.

Raid1 Partition
If this is not in the right forum for this... I'm sorry didnt knew where else it may go. I have to build a new server with RAID 1 and WHM/Cpanel installed (in fact i dont have to, but i need to learn ASAP and my boss gave me an old server for practice). I've seen the installation guide of cpanel but the sizes of the partitions apply to a disk of 80 GB (i think so) so is there any way to calculate the size of the partitions, regardless of disk size? cuz mine are of 250 gb each. I'm trying to install it on centos 5 on text mode, so far i have been able to successfully install the system (with partitions of any size... since is a test doesnt matter) with RAID 1. After that i ran cat /proc/mdstat and in some partitions shows me this Rsync=Delayed I've read in some places that this is not a big issue... but in other places says it is... maybe i did something wrong

Way To Clean Up /boot Partition
I've got Centos 4 and I'm wondering what's the best way to cleanup my /boot partition? Tried to do a yum update tonight and it included kernel, amongst other updates that belonged there so it stopped. I've googled around for commands to run and whatnot, but no go... or I just can't find it... if I had to clean it up I have an idea already about what to do, but I want to ask for advice first to see if there's an easier way. so, how do people here clean up that partition?

Partition Scheme For CPanel
I just received a new server, I have been using always the partition scheme 'x2 ram swap, 1GB /tmp, /boot and /", but im not sure if I should get the new server re-formatted with that scheme (the HD is 250GB, so I will get 2GB /tmp), or stay with the current one: # Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on # /dev/sda5 7.8G 343M 7.1G 5% / # /dev/sda8 198G 1.1G 187G 1% /home # /dev/sda6 996M 39M 906M 5% /tmp # /dev/sda3 7.8G 2.4G 5.0G 32% /usr # /dev/sda2 9.7G 390M 8.9G 5% /var # /dev/sda1 122M 11M 105M 10% /boot # tmpfs 1014M 0 1014M 0% /dev/shm # I dont really see anything better, since I have all the available space in my old scheme. Anyway, which one do you think is better for a cPanel server, or you like to use and the reason?

Optimal Partition Setup
I just purchased a dell poweredge in order to move my website to its own dedicated server. I have a few questions on the best linux partition setup for a webserver. The system has 8 gigs of ram, raid 10 setup with four 15k rpm drives and two quadcore cpu's. The os is CentOS 5.1 The server can have up to 30,000 uniques in a single day and can be somewhat database intensive. Does anyone have a recommend partition setup, besides the default? With 8 gigs of ram, what is the recommend swap? I've seen rules that say anything over 2 gigs of ram, the rule is S = M+2. So that would put me at 10 gigs swap. Is that overkill? Should i make a seperate partition for log files?

Partition Sizes Layout
I have a dell 2950 server with raid 5 + a hotswap. There are 4 73G 15K drives with TWO dual quad process. 4G mem I was reading that the swap space s/b 2X the mem or 8Gigs. The swap drive should be at the outer edge of the drive for speed. Or drive C, but with these fast drives is it really going to matter My layout idea so far is as follows 8 swap 20 OS and programs 20 SQL databases and websites 10 log files 10 downloads and upgrade files.

/home Partition Is Heavily Corrupted
So what I got is a problem that /home partition of the server is heavily corrupted. NOC has already done a FSCK on the disk, but not all the errors were fixed. So they are running another FSCK. Here's what manager suggested Quote: Hence, to save time, we would suggest an OS reload on the server. We may do OS reload on a fresh hard disk and then attach the current disk as secondary. After that we may use a data recovery tool such DDRESCUE to recover data from the corrupted hard drive. Since I am bit nervous now (no backups, as chornobs wasn't been able to run it due corrupted hdd for some time) wondering. How often it fails to recover all the data? I know it's hard to say, but just aprox?

PHP Work With Noexec Partition As Cgi And Others Cant

My httpd.conf includes line like Action application/x-httpd-php5.cgi /cgi-sys/php5.cgi AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5.cgi .php everything works perfectly. However I tried same configuration for python and perl and it did not work. But it worked if I mounted /home without noexec. What makes php so special that it can work with noexec partitons as cgi while others cant? I would really like to know as I would like to run perl and python with noexec partitons. Please dont discuss alternatives to noexec flag. This would be off topic.

Issue Mounting RAID Perc Partition
We had a problem on one of our servers and it was running RAID 1 with two 300GB SAS. When I boot the server I have the following issue, PXE:E61: Media test failure, check cable I searched through all the net but couldnt find a solution that helped me. Now I took one of the HDDs out and installed as slave on another Linux server. One of the HDDs says when I do /sbin/fdisk -l, no partition table for /dev/sdb (something like that) The other HDD have all the partition table, /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdb3 /dev/sdb4 /dev/sdb5 The big partition (probably when I have my data) is under /dev/sdb2, although when I try to mount that partition I get the following error, mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb2 missing codepage or other error In some cases useful is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so Is any command specific for mounting RAID partitions or the HD is gone ? I really need the data that are inside it.

Backup Solutions - Compressing Partition & Transfer
I administer a busy forum and require a best backup solution. (Servers are clustered and running Debian Etch) Currently when backup script packs the whole partition using command: tar cvzf /backup/webroot/webroot-(today's-date).tar.gz /webroot But, this causes huge load on to the server and the whole website becomes unavailable during this time. Since the number of files is huge, it takes around 10-15min for it to finish. Now, I need another software or a way to limit tar's load on to the system so that the website doesn't go down during the backup process. (dd would work as /webroot has it's own partition but I'm not sure on how it the load goes with it and also if it works with cron) Do you know any good solution? Also, right now all backups are on each server separately. To clarify, mysql server's backups are on mysql server and actual files' backups are on web server. As you may have realized, this is very bad as it won't protect me from harddisk failures and hackings. (Hacker can just delete the whole thing and website will be gone forever...) So, to prevent them from happening and also for central management of the backups, I got a server just for backups. Now, I need a way to transfer the backups to it. What software do you recommend to accomplish this? (scp, rsync, ncftp, etc...) Some of you may say R1Soft's CDP is the best but I would like to have that as my last option because I don't want to rely on another company when it comes to backups.

How To Configure Mysql To Hold Your Databases On Another Partition On Hard Drive
I have a server that is running linux with cpanel and I am running out of space on a partition. I was getting this error: Drive Warning: /dev/sda3 (/var) is 83% full I looked in the folder and went to /var/lib/mysql and noticed that I have about 6 databases that are a little over 1 GB each. The sda3 partition only has a capacity for 9.9 GB and I was suggested to configure mysql to hold my databases on another partition that has more space..

Windows Media Server & Web Server
I have a company that wants to stream some live events via Windows Media Encoder/Windows Media Player. I believe the best route is to use a WMS, stream to the WMS, then the CDN would pull from there for events. Can someone help me explain a Windows Media Server versus a web server? Can you host web sites on a WMS? Is WMS just an extension to a regular Windows 2003 server?

Web Hosting On Same Server As Game Server
Does a typical LAMP setup for a high enough traffic site(s) take enough resources to affect the performance of a game server? (we'll say 1million page views per day) I'm speaking of say, 2MB of ram, dual xeon 2.8 type machine, with IDE drives. Nothing too fancy. 1 milion page views per day may be pushing it, so what about say, 200 per day? Just wondering if anyone has a setup like this and how it fairs out at the game server end. I'm thinking of moving my websites over to my game server + add more sites over time, but don't want it to lag the game. I know as a fact bandwidth would not be the issue, I'm thinking more ram/cpu. The game I host (Ultima Online) uses very little bandwidth with even 30+ people online. I use less then 1% of my link capacity at most times. I've seen it spike to 5% and that's most likely when I was downloading data.

Network Web Server And Database Server Together
I am going to setup our new database server (call it beta) in our data center. Previously we only had one server (call it alpha) which was web, email, ftp, dns, and database. Beta is taking over alphas database duties. We have a Sonicwall router/firewall as our main connection access point. I am trying to decicde if we should simply connect alpha and beta together locally via a gigabit crossover cable, or if I should connect beta into our sonicwall router/firewall. Beta does not need to be outside accessible at all. So if I connect beta to the sonicwall I simply would not open any ports. What do you guys think is best for performance and the overall right way to do it.

DB Server And Web Server In Different Data Centers
DHas anyone got experience of having a web server and db server setup where the servers are in different datacenters? Is this a viable solution or would the performance of sites suffer too much due to the added latency? The only other problem I can think of is additional bandwith usage but that's not a major worry. Reason I ask is beacause I've found and excellent deal for a DB server and would like to keep my current server for the front end..

Media Server Or Web Server + NAS
I currently use a Dedicated Server: Quad Core, 8GB Ram, 3TB HDD as a Media server which streams video clips etc... on my websites. But Im moving my sites to a UK colo, I have been advised that its better to have Multiple Web Servers connected to a NAS / Storage Server? As I dont want to have multiple servers doing seperate jobs I want 1 cluster e.g. Web Servers + Load Balancers + Storage + SQL I Purchased a HP StorageWorks NAS 1200s 1TB LINK: [url] Will this do the job? Or should I use this as backup storage and get something else?

How To Setup A WEB Server Which Talks With DB A Server
I have been shooting away a lot of questions on these forums lately, but you guys have been very helpful. Thanks. My problem is this. We are going to get rackspace. Then we are going to purchase two servers. The first (WEB) is a httpd, dns, ftp, smtp, pop3 server. The second (DB) is purely a database server which will run mysql and mssql. The first server (WEB) runs a asp/php applications that need to connect and talk with the database (DB) server. I was thinking of only connection the WEB server to the physical internet through the co-location drop. Then connecting the WEB and DB server directly via a CAT6 cable. Both servers will have gigabit NIC cards. Then in theory in the asp/php applications all I have to do, is point them to the local ip address of the DB server as this should work. Is this a good solution? Will speed be an issue, the delay from talking to the WEB server and talking to the DB server? I was thinking this is more secure, because the WEB server is the only machine physically connected to the internet, the DB server is not. Though, is it true, if hackers compromise the web server, they then would be able to compromise the DB server as well via the WEB server? I am open to suggestions though, and better ways of setting this up.

Remote File Server And Web Server
I own a file hosting site. The site is powered by 2 servers - 1 front end web and database server, and 1 where all the files are stored. I'm facing a problem that uploading and downloading often failed. Connections to mysql would timeout. Has it to do with mysql settings or because the file server is located at a distance from the sql server? (my.cnf on the sql server) [mysqld] skip-locking skip-innodb max_user_connections=6000 max_connections=6000 datadir=/var/lib/mysql socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
