Re: Ubuntu Server Book Needed?
Hi Mike, I'm the author of the beginning book. Currently working on the second edition (and an advanced book as well, both will be out by Q4 this year). I'm interested in your comments about the virtualization chapter. Would you be willing to provide some more in-depth feedback on that chapter? That could help in making it a chapter that better forfills your needs :-) Thanks, Sander Mike Lane schreef: I would think that there is interest in this. I actually have the first book that you linked too and have found it pretty useful so far. I was actually very disappointed with the section on virtualization though which very briefly covers KVM, Xen and I forget the third one off the top of my head. So I would think that there would be interest in this given Ubuntu's popularity - although personally I would even like to see a server book dedicated to just running virtual machines on Ubuntu server. I know I would buy it (if it was a good in depth book). Mike From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: Ubuntu Server Book Needed? Date: Fri, 11 Jul 2008 13:43:29 -0400 Hello all, Megan with Manning Publications here. I normally do not post general inquiries about books to technical mailing lists, but in this case I was encouraged to do so, so here goes. I'm seeking feedback from the community regarding the interest-level for a book on Ubuntu Server. We've had the book in development for a while now, but the project stalled out several months ago, and we must now determine whether we should push to complete it or not. In the meantime, another publisher has put out a book on the subject, and a second book has been announced for later this year (see links to Amazon listings below). So we are wondering, is our Ubuntu Server book still needed? (See http://www.manning.com/galvin for more info.) If you have any thoughts about whether such a book would be welcomed, please feel free to respond. If you would prefer to keep your opinion on this private, you can write to me directly at meyo [at] manning.com. We would appreciate any input that you are willing to give.

Re: Looking for users of redhat-cluster-suite on Ubuntu
2008/7/11 Etienne Goyer [EMAIL PROTECTED]: We (some colleagues and myself) are currently working on white paper about HA clustering using redhat-cluster-suite on Ubuntu. We would like to hear about different real-world deployments to be able to synthesise a set of best practices. The cookie-cutter Apache/NFS/Samba scenarios At Brightbox we currently use the cluster suite with our virtualised Ubuntu Ruby on Rails service. We only use a bit of it, and essentially we have found it to be more trouble than it is worth. A great number of our availability problems are due to problems with the cluster technology not behaving properly. Essentially the issue is that the cluster suite couples machines closely together - that is its purpose. And like all coupling it creates a system that is brittle in the face of unforeseen problems. So we've taken the view that we're going to eliminate both clustering and NFS from our setup and instead use GlusterFS (http://gluster.org) and database clustering as our shared facilities. The rest of the design is going to be shared nothing as far as is humanly possible. Anybody who has struggled with clustering, NFS and yowled with frustration at stale file handles will find GlusterFS a complete breath of fresh air. There are Ubuntu Hardy packages for GlusterFS here: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-ruby-backports/+archive for anybody who fancies giving it a whirl. -- Neil Wilson -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
Getting Ruby on Rails into Ubuntu Server - properly
I hear (http://ubuntuserver.wordpress.com/2008/07/07/how-to-improve-the-ruby-on-rails-experience-for-next-ubuntu-release/) that Ubuntu Server is looking to improve its Rails experience. As it happens I've been coming at the same problem from the opposite direction. At Brightbox (www.brightbox.co.uk) we do Ruby on Rails with Ubuntu on virtualised servers for a living and we have a few projects on going. - Improve the packaging of Ubuntu Ruby, Rails and supporting infrastructure to make it easier for our customers to select the framework technology they want to use. - Packaging of tools to help development and deployment of Rails applications. - Reworking our virtualisation stack from the current Xen based system to one based upon the 'official' Ubuntu KVM system. As we're free software nuts at Brightbox, we'd like to feed our Rails experience back into Ubuntu Server and hopefully get a bit of a guide from the team as to where we should be going with our virtualisation stack. If that is something of interest, let me know. (I've already put my thoughts on the Rails specification and I have tried to contact the Blueprint/specification owner without success so far. Obviously I'm not 100% au-fait with Ubuntu-server processes). -- Neil Wilson Brightbox -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
Re: Looking for users of redhat-cluster-suite on Ubuntu
Hi Etienne, One year ago I built HA cluster based on heartbeat and ocfs2. The cluster contains two Dell servers and one storage running in a cluster mode and directly connected to the servers via SCSI cables(DAS). The system is powered by SLES 10.2 and it's still in production. The HA cluster contains several resource groups like Apache + VIP, MySQL + VIP, Oracle XE + VIP and our Java based application. The application like Apache, MySQL and Oracle XE use the same storage but they have different per nodes log directory, pid files and some other files like listener.ora. I use OCFS2CDSL to make one file or directory unique per node. I used the Heartbeat GUI application to configure the cluster and now I use it as a cluster management tool. Let me know if you need more details. Sorry for my English. Regards, Alexander Etienne Goyer wrote: Hello all, I guess this list is the best place to ask for such a question.

Procmail and global mail archive.
Greetings, Hopefully someone can help, or can make a suggestion on what I am doing wrong. I am using postfix and procmail (3.22-16ubuntu3) on a Ubuntu(7.10) system to create a global email archive (/var/backup/mail_archive_date/user) of all received email. It is generally working well, except every I've been seeing 'procmail' segfaults in the logs. The sender gets a 'failed to deliver' messages, while the recipient receives no message at all.. (This is not how I would like it work.. failure of my archiving setup shouldn't affect delivery.) I need a fix, and/or a suggestion on how to make it more robust, as it 'feels' like it is message dependant. (I see nothing for days, then a stack of errors.) Ok.. some more information.. The original message received be the sender contained.. Command died with signal 11: /usr/bin/procmail. Command output: procmail: Exceeded LINEBUF I up'ed the LINEBUF setting in the /etc/prcomailrc file (see below) but I'm now seeing segfaults for procmail in the logs. eg. ...
