Setting Up An NFS Server And Client On Debian Etch
Author: Falko Timme • Tags: debian, storage • Comments: 5Setting Up An NFS Server And Client On Debian Etch This guide explains how to set up an NFS server and an NFS client on Debian Etch. NFS stands for Network File System; through NFS, a client can access (read, write) a remote share on an NFS server as if it was on the local hard disk.

Setting Up A Highly Available NFS Server
Author: Falko Timme • Tags: other, debian, high-availability, storage • Comments: 21Setting Up A Highly Available NFS Server In this tutorial I will describe how to set up a highly available NFS server that can be used as storage solution for other high-availability services like, for example, a cluster of web servers that are being loadbalanced. If you have a web server cluster with two or more nodes that serve the same web site(s), than these nodes must access the same pool of data so that every node serves the same data, no matter if the loadbalancer directs the user to node 1 or node n. This can be achieved with an NFS share on an NFS server that all web server nodes (the NFS clients) can access.

Using ATA Over Ethernet On Debian Etch
Author: rodolphe • Tags: debian, storage • Comments: 2Using ATA Over Ethernet On Debian Etch Imagine you have a machine with all of its disk full and another with unused gigabytes, and you don't want to move the data from one to the other. Why not using the second's disk on the first, you can do it with iSCSI but you can do it with ATA over Ethernet (AoE) too. It's the second method I'll explain in this article. All of this was made with two computers running Debian Etch.

Tags: backup, debian, high-availability, other, storage •
Comments: 10 DRBD 8.3 Third Node Replication With Debian Etch The recent release of DRBD 8.3 now includes The Third Node feature as a freely available component. This document will cover the basics of setting up a third node on a standard Debian Etch installation. At the end of this tutorial you will have a DRBD device that can be utilized as a SAN, an iSCSI target, a file server, or a database server.

Using ATA Over Ethernet (AoE) On Debian Lenny (Initiator And Target)
Author: Falko Timme •
Tags: debian, storage •
Comments: 0 Using ATA Over Ethernet (AoE) On Debian Lenny (Initiator And Target) This guide explains how you can set up an AoE target and an AoE initiator (client), both running Debian Lenny. AoE stands for "ATA over Ethernet" and is a storage area network (SAN) protocol which allows AoE initiators to use storage devices on the (remote) AoE target using normal ethernet cabling. "Remote" in this case means "inside the same LAN" because AoE is not routable outside a LAN (this is a major difference compared to iSCSI). To the AoE initiator, the remote storage looks like a normal, locally-attached hard drive.

The iSCSI protocol is a storage area network (SAN) protocol which allows iSCSI initiators to use storage devices on the (remote) iSCSI target using normal ethernet cabling. To the iSCSI initiator, the remote storage looks like a normal, locally-attached hard drive.

Comments: 11 Xen Live Migration Of An LVM-Based Virtual Machine With iSCSI On Debian Lenny This guide explains how you can do a live migration of an LVM-based virtual machine (domU) from one Xen host to the other. I will use iSCSI to provide shared storage for the virtual machines in this tutorial. Both Xen hosts and the iSCSI target are running on Debian Lenny in this article.

Creating An NFS-Like Standalone Storage Server With GlusterFS On Debian Lenny
Author: Falko Timme •
Tags: debian, storage •
Comments: 1 This tutorial shows how to set up a standalone storage server on Debian Lenny. Instead of NFS, I will use GlusterFS here. The client system will be able to access the storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86-64 servers with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.
