Just calling on the wisdom of the group to ask what is the currently
preferred Linux distro for running UV?
iirc, if you want a *supported* environment, you want RHEL or SLES.
Bearing in mind CentOS is the same as RHEL, and OpenSUSE is close to
SLES, those would be options. Fedora of course is RedHat, so you're
probably okay there.
But as far as I'm aware, it should run on most distros without
problems, it's just the installer that will give you grief. The two
things to watch out there that I'm aware of are that one of the cpio
options has reversed its meaning - you may have to remove or add an
argument, and of course the rc.d environment varies between distros so
you may have to configure the UV startup stuff manually.
We will be putting low user count development & test environments on it
and ultimately we are trying to emulate as closely as possible our
AIX 5.3
production environment. We are currently using Fedora Core 6 32bit
but I feel
we should go up to a newer 64 bit platform.
Cheers,
Wol
When you convert your data, be aware of the "endian-ness" of the two
platforms. AIX to x86 will require a conversion.
