I am considering a setup such as this: - At least dual cpu (possibly with 2 cores each) - 4GB of RAM - 2 disk RAID 1 array for root disk - 4 disk RAID 1+0 array for PGDATA - 2 disk RAID 1 array for pg_xlog Does anyone know a vendor that might be able provide such setup?
I would look at the HP DL 385 or 585. The 385 is going to max a (2) dual core cpus. The 585 is (4) dual core cpus.
For 20k you should be able to go with a bit more then what you have above, specifically in the RAM department.
Joshua D. Drake Any
critique in this design? I'm thinking having a 2 channel RAID controller to seperate the PGDATA, root and pg_xlog. Sincerely, Kenji ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
