Can I Run Debian On A HS22 IBM Blade Server
Jul 21, 2009
Im starting my business and where providing web application services. In any case iv been working with IBM to determined what hard ware solution would be best for me. All i wont to know is if Debian linux will run fully properly with The IBM HS22 Blade series. They wont me to use RedHat and Microsoft SQL 2008 witch I'm not a fan of. This is a field where my knowledge kind of hit's the end of the road so if there is any one out there who knows what there talking about pleas in lighten me.

I just ordered a server which has that setup:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Dual Core
8MB RAM
2x750GB RAID 1 HD
Now I wanna run it with DirectAdmin, but obviously DirectAdmin doesn´t support the Debian 64 which is installed but only 32 bit Debian.
Now I wonder wether I could setup a Debian 32 as well on that system and if yes, wether it would give me a deficit in Performance?
Or would you rather go with CentOS 64 which Directadmin supports?

Do the old RLX Blade servers use 'mini' hard drives? I can't find an answer anywhere. I seem to recall that they use smaller 2.5" drives. Is this the case?
And, if so, do they make "good" drives worthy of being in a server in that size? Are they essentially just a laptop drive?

Is it possible to use a APC remote reboot power strip for a server in a blade?
Like for example, say there are 16 servers in a blade, can you remote reboot them individually?
Because blade servers have only like 3-4 redundant power supplies and I am assuming all the 16 servers are powered by the onboard power supplies in the blade enclosure. So...if thats the case, how is it possible to reboot each individual server?

at Dell's Blade Servers?
[url]
I was checking on it and it seems very attractive..
10 servers on a 7u form factor....
power supply is enclosure based instead of server based.. can be redundant or not...
what do you guys think?
I built an entry-level server to check the blade's price..

I've just ordered a dedicated server with Ubuntu server, but they've come back to me to say that they've had trouble installing Ubuntu server on these particular servers.
As an alternative, they're offering to install Debian. My concern is that I come from a windows background and have spent the last month reading and playing with Ubuntu Server in vmware. I'll be running a small handful of sites on the server and will rely on the apt-get and package installer in webmin to get things set up and for administration. I'll dabble in the shell a little, but only when needed.
Should I go with a different host that can offer Ubuntu, or will I be okay with Debian?

I am thinking on using dell blade and storage solutions for my servers.
I am interested in installing FreeBSD in blade servers and storage solutions.
I am thinking on using blade system for load balancing and storage solution for information security/base.
Is it possible to use FreeBSD in blade servers.
My second question would be, is it possible to connect storage solution to freebsd setups as a hdd.
I want to use blade servers as a computing power and storage solution as hdd.
With this way, i believe it will be possible to extend storage and servers easly.

I just purchased a Debian server with a plesk control panel. It is suppose to be online within 24 hours. I have no idea how to set it up because so far I have only used shared hosts.
I need to know the following
1. how do I create the httpdocs/public_html folder
2. is it possible to FTP? If not what can I use for file uploading?
3. How do I setup a MySQl database? Is it possible to do this using plesk control panel? (Shared hosting can do this through plesk)
4. How do I setup my domain name servers? through plesk?

I want to backup a entire folder thats in / not in any other folders.
I've tried this command but I get the error described below..
tar cvpzf opensim.tgz
tar: Cowardly refusing to create an empty archive
Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.
The folder is called opensim. I was logged into SSH with root access and tried the command directly, not going into other folders because well I dont want to, I wanna backup that 1st opensim folder that I can see on the FTP also.

I'm having some trouble finding a VPS host that offers Debian and Plesk. I've searched the forum but nothing's really panned out. I'm currently with Geekstorage but the server has been slow (same problem reported by others).
Anyone have recommendations for Debian + Plesk VPS host?

Install Required software
NX server needs ssh and some libraries to run. These packages are normally not installed during the basic installation process.Use the following comamnd to install
#aptitude libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 ssh
Install Free NX Server in Debian Etch
First you need to download the .deb packages using the follwoing commands
i did the three steps..
Now you need to install .deb packages in the following order this is very important
#dpkg -i nxclient_2.1.0-17_i386.deb
#dpkg -i nxnode_2.1.0-22_i386.deb
#dpkg -i nxserver_2.1.0-22_i386.deb
If you get any errors use the following comamnd to fix
#apt-get -f install
Now you need to make sure ssh and nx servers are running if not start with the following commands
#/etc/init.d/ssh start
#/etc/init.d/nxserver start
--------------------
but the problem is i cannot connect to the nx .
i installed the program on windows but what is the username and password should i use? i tried to use the root but it said that the user root cannot be used.

Linux user trying to install a few packages on a new dedicated Debian server.
Following some tutorials, I installed Apache1.3 & PHP4 using apt-get install and had them up and running no problem.
I then decided to change the versions, so removed them using apt-get remove and deleted the relevant folders from /etc (this was before I knew of the apt-get --purge option).
I then tried to install Apache2 and PHP5, and although it appears to have worked, folders are not created for them in /etc so it doesn't work.
Is there a way of doing a fresh clean install so that the folders are created? I've tried apt-get clean without success.
Alternatively, a way to rollback Debian to it's previous state before I got my grubby little hands on it!
