Re: Tips about setting-up intermezzo...

Hi, Josep:
   There is a updated HOWTO link on InterMezzo site's doc section, you can
reference that link for more information.
   To answer your questions:
 - Is there any way to setup intermezzo without backing-up the partition,
re-formatting, mounting the partition as fs type "intermezzo" and dumping
the backup again?? If so, how should it be done??
    You can try use vintermezzo or just try to use loop fs as the base of
intermezzo fs, this will ease your use.  If you want the data on the
partition replicated, then you will have no other choice but to back up it
and copy back after using mkizofs created the partition and starting the
intersync server.
- My other question is about the transport software. Docs I've seen talk
about using ghttpd, but it seems newer releases support apache. Is that
right??
    At the very beginning, only ghttpd is support. At present, the main
httpd server is apache, so it supports apache well.

- Finally, I haven't found much info about config files. There is one
sampleconfigfile coming with intersyng-0.9.5-3, but where should it be
installed??
    What does the config refer to? If you refer to the httpd related config
file, intersync will create the config at the very beginning. If your httpd
is apache 2.0.x ,  then it will be no problem at all. Intersync will start
up happily. You can also modify the config file as you wish, it is under
/var/intermezzo-X/intersync-httpd.conf . The fs related config file will be
located under the mounted position's .intermezzo directory, there will be
one file named config, you can cat the content of the file.

Hi,

I'm just trying out intermezzo as a cluster fs for my HA servers.
The problem for me is that docs are kind of outdated (the ones found at
http://www.inter-mezzo.org) and I guess some mods have been done since
these documents where published.

So far I've compiled and installed intersync-0.9.5-3 with no problems.
I'll be using the intermezzo kernel modules that are already present in
my Trustix 2.0 Linux distro (kernel 2.4.21).

So far, I'm following Linux Planet's article (the one mentioned on
"News" section at the web site) as it seems the most up-to-date piece of
docs I've seen (09/10/2002).

My next step is setting up the server. I already have a separate
partition for Intermezzo, but it's already holding data.

Is there any way to setup intermezzo without backing-up the partition,
re-formatting, mounting the partition as fs type "intermezzo" and
dumping the backup again?? If so, how should it be done??

My other question is about the transport software. Docs I've seen talk
about using ghttpd, but it seems newer releases support apache. Is that
right??

Finally, I haven't found much info about config files. There is one
sampleconfigfile coming with intersyng-0.9.5-3, but where should it be
installed??


Thanks,
