Hi, I do get two new Sun Fire X4170 servers with 8 SAS 300GB HDs, 24 GB RAM each.
Right now, we do not have a lot of data in our databases (5 small LAMP servers), which should be consolidated. (The second Sun Fire X4170 will be the Webserver-Sun, the DB-Traffic will have his own gbit switch (Webserver-Sun <-> MySQL-Sun) ) There are more reads than writes. To simplify matters, I'd like to use virtual MySQL-Servers (Master and Slave) on the sun and use one large raid. Also I was thinking, to use one RAID 1 for the virtualisation-system and the other six harddisks for the virtual servers. What RAID would be the better choice? 10 or 01? What do you think?
