Quick and Dirty RAID 1 on CentOS 5.2

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

Had this question a couple of times this week so we decided to do a quick screencast. In this setup, there are 3 SCSI drives:

sda = 20GB
sdb = 40GB
sdc = 40GB

The OS will be installed on the sda as / and the 2 40GB drives will be setup as RAID 1 and mounted as /vmware

We’re still playing with the resolution settings on Vimeo, the source video will be available for download soon…

VMWare Server 2.0 BETA

Thursday, November 15th, 2007

We’ve been testing the 2.0 Beta release of the free VMWare server. We’ve been using the 1.x series in both development and production since it was called GSX server and are very impressed with the 2.0 version.

Our favorite feature is the web based administration console. With a firefox plugin, you can now do what the desktop version could do and more.

Here’s a screenshot:

We’re available at support@imapenguin.com if you’re interested in how this version will affect your current VMWare servers or are interested in how virtualization can work for you.
