Debian GNU/Linux

When working on Debian, I always try to keep the system consistent. When I modify any thing in the system, I want to keep this modification through any update/upgrade process. So here is my work.

Most of my work is done on IBM Blade HS21 or some System x3550, System x3650 or System x336. The underline storage system is a DS4700.

• Debian and multipath on DS4000, work I've done on IBM DS4700. First published there Bolay's wiki
• Install Xen
• OCFS2, a SAN Filesystem. OCFS2 is a SAN filesystem which allows to access a volume shared between several servers.
• Upgrade from Etch to Lenny with multipath, during my test on OCFS2 I did try Lenny, but upgrade did not happen as smoothly as I thought, so here is some stuff I noticed. But read this document, because my system did not start at all !
• Online resize on SAN DS4700, the complete procedure to resize a drive on a IBM DS4700. This allows to resize without stopping any services, as long as the file system support it (like XFS).
• My Xen Solution. I describe here how I setup my Xen solution.

• Install Samba on Etch, with LDAP.

• Install openLDAP with runtime configuration
• Install phpLdapAdmin

• Install Exim4 on Ecth, with LDAP.
• Configure TLS for exim4
• Useful commands

• Install LDAPDNS

• Debian Tips, some stuff I discover and find usefull
