Hey, we've got Mulgara running in remote mode as described below, using
Mulgara's default #server1 servername. The fedora-rebuild scripts
require Mulgara to be running, but not Fedora. So what I did was create
two /etc/init.d scripts, one to start both and one to just start Mulgara
alone.
I do think the architecture could be further decoupled by allowing
fedora to run while also reindexing the resource index. However, you've
got to block or track all object changes while that the index process
completes, something that seems more likely in the next release, which
promises JTA support. Edwin, do fedora developers have any plans or
thoughts about that?
thanks,
