</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; Hi folks,
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt;
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; As you know, rabbit.mageia.org was offered to Mageia.Org.
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; This gift is now over and we need to find a way to replace this server
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; ASAP as alpha of Mageia 3 is not so far...
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt;
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Do we still have rackspace in Marseille datacenter ?
</I>
For 1U, yes. But, a new mail is comming as the idea is to change ecosse 
at the same time for 1U instead of 2U.

&gt;<i>  &gt; FYI, we had:
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.online.net/serveur-dedie/offre-dedibox-professionnel-dell.xhtml">http://www.online.net/serveur-dedie/offre-dedibox-professionnel-dell.xhtml</A>
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; If we keep this, it will cost 60 &#8364; Tax Included per month.
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; So, 720 &#8364; for a year.
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; During Mageia 1 and Mageia 2 release process, Anne et Thomas encountered
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; big troubles like: very very long time to generate ISO and to use the
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; server for live and DVD at the same time.
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt;
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; The bad points of the server we had were:
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; - &quot;small&quot; and old CPU as it was a &quot;green&quot; and old server
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; - big IO trouble as HDD are in SATA only
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; The good points were:
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; - 16 GB of RAM
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; - 2x2TB of HDD
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; - HW raid
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt;
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; I checked Lenovo, HP and Dell to have a server to replace this box.
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; Dell is cheaper than the two others!
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt;
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; I made a configuration with a Dell PowerEdge R210-II:
</I>&gt;<i>  &gt; - CPU: 1 x Intel Xeon E3-1240: 4C/8T, 3,30 GHz, 8M Cache
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Compressing livecds on rabbit had no problem of maxing out all
</I>&gt;<i> 4C/8T available ...
</I>&gt;<i> (but as theese are almost double the speed of current
</I>&gt;<i>   rabbit ones I guess it can be ok)
</I>
If rabbit is too powerfull, why not using it to rebuild distro once a 
month to check dep and errors...

&gt;<i>  &gt; - RAM: 16GB
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> An other way to speed up builds is to add more ram, and build in tmpfs
</I>
Ok, we can put 24GB but more is very very very expensive.

&gt;<i>  &gt; - HDD controller: Dell H200 (hardware raid)
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> but no cache, and apparently  not capable of doing raid split on same
</I>&gt;<i> disks.
</I>
Ok, I made a new configuration, it's RAID 1 with a H710 with 512MB of cache.

&gt;<i>  [...]
</I>
Thanks for your feedback, let me mail the new proposal. :-)
