Re: [Zope] Zope Startup Questions II (Son of Zope)

It is more a limitation of the 32 bit chipset rather than a limitation of the filesystem. 64 bit systems don't have this problem and a journaling filesystem won't fix the problem. It was a design choice when the filesystem was designed, disks were small and 64 bit systems were on the horizon. I think thatIntel has done some fancy design work on the Xeons so that that have 36 bit registers that are used for addressing but it is basically a kludge( needs a nonstandard approach for just that platform ). The software kludge is to create an extra layer in the filesystem ( read slower ) design. There are patches round that do fix this problem but the reason why it has not been incorporated into the mainstream kernel is that it is bad (read nonstandard ) design. If you are addressing files of this size I would look very seriously at a 64 bit system simply for performance reasons.

First, you can remove the error by updating your catalog. Second, I *really* want to be able to reproduce this. So... Update your catalog, and reproduce it just once. Once it happens, update the catalog again and keep reproducing it until you have an exact sequence of steps that cause the problem. I'm very interested in finding out that sequence.

Cheap LINUX Zope host?
by tommy_b＠my-deja.com 15 Nov '99

15 Nov '99

Oops, I'm going to use LINUX as the host OS. I've done a bit of research on using SCSI. IWill & Tekram put out SCSI3 cards under $70 (according to http://www.pricewatch.com) Anyone use these guys? However, I'm not sure a cheap/close-out SCSI drive will match the performance-to-value ratio to a new ATA-66. http://www.storagereview.com has lots of drive tests that leads me to this thought. If I was spending more than $1000 for a new system, I'd go SCSI for sure. I need to keep below $700, but SCSI is one of my first planned upgrades. Is SCSI worth me getting a old used system with 64MB of RAM & slapping a SCSI card into it, or should I go for a new (dual) Celeron with 128MB? Has anyone actually done performce tests with Zope & SQL to compare what component has the most impact for a _cheap_ system: CPU, memory, or HD throughput (ATA vs SCSI)?

Not difficult to make login only site. Give anonymous users no access rights (uncheck all checkboxes under Anonymous under Security Tab at your top level.) Put users in acl_users folder at root of your site. Create a new role (MEMBER for example) and give all the users at least that role. Give MEMBER appropriate access rights (view, use database methods ...) All users will now have to login.

I have try various resources to make this but i can't. First of all. need i configure the windows odbc manager to locate my cass.dbf file? (this is in c:\dbfs\) Thank you very much. Rod Za

RE: [Zope] Cheap LINUX Zope host?
by Ian Blenke 15 Nov '99

Using IDE on a dual-proc Linux server is a "bad idea". Use SCSI for any machine you propose to host multiple users on. If you must use IDE, throw some DIMMS in the poor box and rely on cache to speed things up. Also, if you're running a UDMA-66 system, and have a controller (and drive, etc) that can handle it, you can speed things up quite a bit with hdparm: hdparm -u1 -c1 -k1 -m16 -d1 -X66 /dev/hda PLEASE DO NOT TRY THE ABOVE COMMAND BEFORE YOU RTFM. If you loose data, there is nothing I can do to help you. TEST THIS CAREFULLY. TEST THIS FULLY. Don't do this to a production server, PLEASE. This works GREAT on a FIC SD-11 Athlon system (VIA "VP3" 82C59x based Southbridge) after enabling the driver support in the kernel along with a WD 27g UDMA66/7200rpm drive. On an overclocked dual-celery system running two IDE IBM 16Gb drives at home, attempting to tweak my IDE settings with the onboard Intel chipset causes the machine to reliably lock solid EVERY TIME. I have been running Zope on the above dual-celery system for quite some time. Aside from the 2gb file limit, everything has run very smoothly. The biggest noticable changes are when DMA is enabled, and when IRQ unmasking is turned on. YMMV. - Ian C.
