Hello Wouter and *, since August 2011 I run an Experimanental-Cloud with 20 IBM eServe x345 and 40 IBM eServer x335... Enough machines to play with it.
Since 3 weeks I now have my two 400V/32A/3P CEE Wallets for my two
Severracks in my office.

I was thinking on this, but HOW does this work with the config files?
Is thre a Debian HOWTO which descibe this?
If software change and the old config is not more compatibel with the
nw binaries, your system could become instable... and runing a Cluster
or a Cloud with a view dozen, some 100 or 1000 Servers will bring down
our entired system.
Is thee a HOWTO how to solv this?
However, all of my systems have
/dev/sda1 1000 MByte Rescue
/dev/sda2 xxxx MByte swap
/dev/sda3 10000 MByte /tmp
/dev/sda5 2000 MByte /Production_1
/dev/sda6 3000 MByte /Production_1_var_log
/dev/sda7 2000 MByte /Production_2
/dev/sda8 3000 MByte /Production_2_var_log
So, normal I run "Production 1" (mounted as /) and have always a seond
system too bootup. If something goes realy wired, I a boot "Rescue".
Now I can update the Second (not runing) production system without any
hassless

Yeah! If it goes down, you have no network anymore...
Iprefer this fileserver in an heavyly secured environment and sync my
production systems from there if needed.

FullACK
My "rsync" on /usr take only 10-20 seconds per server (the sync server
has 10GE interfaces to the internal switch and the serves are hanging
with there second Eth on this switch)

:-D
In some of my systems I use 4 GByte CF-Cards with an SATA/PATA adapter
because I do not need more Diskspace (my master DNS Server is such case)
