Our new hardware setup
Posted by Robert Swarthout | Filed under Hardware
After our latest purchase with Dell, all I can say is that Micheal Dell will be able to buy a nice new watch. Currently in the office we have a stack of new machines that are getting close to being fully configured ready for the move to the data center. If anyone is looking for a collocation facility in the Atlanta, Georgia area I would highly recommend Quality Tech. Quality Tech is the former E-Delta Com and have a really cool data center in Suwanee, which will be the home to our new boxes. We ended up with the following combination of servers:
- 7 - Poweredge 860
- 2 - LVS
- Director, Slave configuration with hot failover for high-availability
- 2 - WWW
- 2 - NFS
- Director, Slave configuration using hearbeat
- Replicate Data in real time with DRBD to allow for hot failover
- Will also serve web traffic at half of the ratio compared to the WWW boxes
- 1 - DEV
- 3 - Poweredge 2950
- 2 - DB (MySQL dual master configuration)
- 1 - Backup Master with alot of storage space
- 1 - Poweredge SC430
- data set compilation, mostly sits idle
- 1 - Clone Machine
- Old Backup server, will become backup slave
