64bit OS for vicibox

Postby ylem » Wed Jul 28, 2010 4:56 pm

Hi, newbie here!

I would like to ask for your opinion on what 64bit OS to install for my DB Server where vicibox servers will be pointing into it. My bet is CentOS but I'm not sure if you have good and bad experiences when dealing with different OS.

Thank you in advance.

We recommend OpenSuSE, they have a 64-bit ISO installer. We have installed many OpenSuSE 64bit DB servers for our larger clients and we strongly recommend OpenSuSE over CentOS.

Here's their project download page:
http://software.opensuse.org/113/en

We just use the ISO from here if we are installing a database-only server.

Then we usually download the latest 5.0.X MySQL binary directly from MySQL:

Thanks a lot for the recommendation, I'll go for OpenSuse 64bit. Do I need to install 64bit MySQL too?

Any suggestion on how to partition or RAID my HDD? I have 16 X 180GB (HDD) and i want a fresh install on that server. We need to upgrade it from 32bit to 64bit OS.

Thanks a lot.

How much RAM do you have in this server?

What kind of RAID card do you have?

What kind of hard drives are these?

You could use the 64-bit version of MySQL, and for your RAID, you should set up a RAID 10 (do NOT use RAID5, 3 or 6 for a database server, it is a very bad idea)

@mflorell

Can i install Mysql 64 bit for my server having like 4-6-8 GB of RAM only for a separate Web/Apache Server..?

-somehow making apache 64 bit also..? Does installing like a 64 bit distro for opensuse or ubuntu server its packages are not 64..?

- if installing 64 bit you do install it on binaries right..? not on package.

-What file should i download here http://mirror.services.wisc.edu/mysql/D ... MySQL-5.0/ --> for mysql 5.0 server..? can you give guide there are so many choices here.

you got docs on mysql 5.0 server install on binaries..?

There is really no advantage to using 64bit MySQL on a system with only 4GB of RAM, in fact it will REDUCE your capacity.

You do not need 64bit apache.
