about the top speed of Link Aggregation and A STRANGE PROBLEM
Hi ： I use a dell server making Link Aggregation with 6 ports and make it be a FTP server. When I use 2 pc connect the server at the same time. The top speed of the server can be 200MB/S. And in the transmission I cut off one of working ports,the discard connetion will be use another working port , it can't use a free port. So the top speed is down to 100MB/s. And I use 2 pc connect again, It stil use the last port. So I cut it off. Something happens,it will use 2 free ports.And the top speed is up to 200MB/s. What is the matter? And I use 3 pc connect,they use 3 ports. I cut one of them.It will use another working port. Now there are two working ports,3 free ports,1 cut off.When I cut another port, It will use 2 free ports.Now it turn back for using 3 ports, Why ?The LACP protocol's problem? And I have a another question. I make RAID 0 in my server , Why the top speed is 200MB/S ? and how could I do can make 2 server transport with Link Aggregation ? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: Fwd: Some questions about Link Aggregation and Failover
Well that's exactly what I'm trying to show you. Link aggregation will *NOT* allow you to get 200mbs between 2 servers by sending data over the 2 cables. As per the example I pasted below, link aggregation uses a load balancing algorithm to share the traffic across several links. It will *NOT* use *BOTH* links for a single source ip - destination ip pair. On 3/9/12 2:15 AM, bo wang wrote: Hi. Maybe you can't understand me.

I stumbled on this article just just about fell of my chair laughing when I read the last article on future benchmarking tests to perform: research.microsoft.com/pubs/138302/lisa.pdf Considering I have close to a hundred folders or more, and an average of 50,000 emails in each (yes, not good, and I am working on archiving but it won't help _that_ much) with nearly 200,000 in just one! I got a real kick out of the comment that no sane email user would have more than 21,000 emails in a folder - that would make me certifiable :D Oh, and that most email wouldn't be more than a GB or so... mine's edging 6GB already... My security folder averages about 19,000 messages, containing all security reports for the last 30 days (it's a bit over 22,000 today). So, all jokes aside, I contemplated that I would make an ideal test case to the extreme for benchmarking imap servers. Anyone have any suggestions on what to test/how? Anyone have some tools they have created for a similar challenge? I have my own ideas, but if anyone wants me to try something I'd be willing to give it a shot. We have been using courier-imap for at least a decade including at several regional ISPs with 10,000 accounts or so. This has worked very well with minimal problems. During this time we have had to move all e-mail accounts to new servers, and this has been pretty simple. Set up the accounts and $HOME directories on the new machine. Change the DNS to point to it. Then copy all the data from the old box to the new using rsync. This would take a couple of hours with 10,000 accounts. During this time all new mail was processed and available immediately while older messages weren't until the rsync jobs were complete. When we first started building systems for ISPs in 1994, we were using the University of Washington IMAP server, and had a variety of problems as systems grew. Its monolithic file storage required special handling, and I learned about inetd limits on handling large numbers of incoming connections the hard way. I much prefer the Maildir stores as they allow use of standard *nix utilities, find, grep, etc., are hard to corrupt, and have no locking problems with NFS mounts. The courier method of having multiple authentication processes has held up very well over the years under heavy usage.

Re: apache22 + mod_fastcgi
I think you're naming your module incorrectly. First, try just setting the handler in your vhost w/o the ifmodule stuff. If that works, you know where you've gone wrong.

if it would be incorrectly it wouldn't work the first time (default host) virtualhost has a copy from a default host, the only difference is local path to directory, that's all ifmodule is there just in case if for whatever reason module is missing, site can operate in degraded state vs not operate at all and other virtual hosts can work as well otherwise i have to go and comment out alot of lines manually so it's not ifmodule as that proven to work, but in any case i added ifmodule after, line was there before without ifmodule so it didn't work before either.. mbp:~ alexus$ curl -I http://XX.XXX.XX.XXX/php/phpinfo.php HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 10 Mar 2012 01:34:29 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.21 (FreeBSD) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/0.9.8q DAV/2 mod_python/3.3.1 Python/2.7.2 mod_fastcgi/2.4.6 X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.8 Content-Type: text/html mbp:~ alexus$ curl -I http://virtualhost.com/php/phpinfo.php HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 10 Mar 2012 01:34:42 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.21 (FreeBSD) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/0.9.8q DAV/2 mod_python/3.3.1 Python/2.7.2 mod_fastcgi/2.4.6 Last-Modified: Thu, 23 Feb 2012 02:10:09 GMT ETag: 97c8ef-11-4b99824b74240 Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 17 Content-Type: application/x-httpd-php mbp:~ alexus$ On Fri, Mar 9, 2012 at 7:24 PM, Damien Fleuriot m...@my.gd wrote: I think you're naming your module incorrectly.

The way it looks to me, it's something like The first batch will be a bit late; later batches may be more expensive, or may not happen, or maybe they'll just be a little late -- or maybe we'll have enough of a windfall of good fortune to get back on schedule.
