[nos-bbs] 32bit vs. 64bit

[Wm Lewis]

Michael:

 

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 64 bit with Raid-1


I did the server (alternate) install, and then added the GUI for a little more ease of use.

 

I have had some frequent SAMBA panic crashes and restarts. But because it restarts it's not been a problem. 

 

I have reported it to the Ubuntu Launchpad team. Confirmed bug. Looking into a resolution.

 

If you're not running SAMBA for printers and file sharing, may not be a problem for you.

 

If you don't wan't to install the GUI afterwards, you could use WEBMIN for server configurations.

 

In fact, I prefer WEBMIN.

Up until now, we’ve been running 32-bit Ubuntu on our JNOS machines.  I’m building some new machines and I’m wondering if it’s worthwhile to use the 64-bit version instead.
 
Also, I plan to use the alternate install disk to create RAID-1 mirrored disks for protection from a disk failure.  
 
So I’m looking to see if anyone out there is running 64-bit linux with JNOS.
 
Specifically, please let me know if you are using on your JNOS machine:
1)  64-bit Ubuntu 
2)  64-bit something other than Ubuntu
3)  software RAID-1 (32-bit or 64-bit) on Ubuntu
 
Does it work?  Any problems?  Anything to watch out for?
 
Any other general comments on why 32-bit vs. 64-bit or suggestions on 64-bit are welcome. 
 
Thanks much,
Michael
