+&gt;<i> Hi folks,
+</I>
+Hi there
+
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> As you know, rabbit.mageia.org was offered to Mageia.Org.
+</I>&gt;<i> This gift is now over and we need to find a way to replace this server
+</I>&gt;<i> ASAP as alpha of Mageia 3 is not so far...ime i
+</I>
+I'm also guilty but still we need a decision very quickly. dedibox offer
+will end in the beginning og august but we need to close it down 3 weeks
+before. Alpha 1 is planned for 4th of september and we need to have
+server ready 2 weeks before. So time is *short*
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> FYI, we had:
+</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> If we keep this, it will cost 60 &#8364; Tax Included per month.
+</I>&gt;<i> So, 720 &#8364; for a year.
+</I>&gt;<i> During Mageia 1 and Mageia 2 release process, Anne et Thomas encountered
+</I>&gt;<i> big troubles like: very very long time to generate ISO and to use the
+</I>&gt;<i> server for live and DVD at the same time.
+</I>
+Indeed. Live cds build was done during night as it takes several hours.
+1 DVD iso took about 20 minutes which seems to be fast but very long
+when you are in the middle of a release and you need short build times
+to test some fixes.
+
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The bad points of the server we had were:
+</I>&gt;<i> - &quot;small&quot; and old CPU as it was a &quot;green&quot; and old server
+</I>&gt;<i> - big IO trouble as HDD are in SATA only
+</I>&gt;<i> The good points were:
+</I>&gt;<i> - 16 GB of RAM
+</I>&gt;<i> - 2x2TB of HDD
+</I>&gt;<i> - HW raid
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I checked Lenovo, HP and Dell to have a server to replace this box.
+</I>&gt;<i> Dell is cheaper than the two others!
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I made a configuration with a Dell PowerEdge R210-II:
+</I>&gt;<i> - CPU: 1 x Intel Xeon E3-1240: 4C/8T, 3,30 GHz, 8M Cache
+</I>&gt;<i> - RAM: 16GB
+</I>&gt;<i> - HDD controller: Dell H200 (hardware raid)
+</I>&gt;<i> - HDD: 2 x 600GB, SAS 6Gbps, 3&quot;5 15k (in RAID 0) Careful: can't add more
+</I>&gt;<i> HDD! If we choose, the backpane for 4HDD, HDD will be 10k instead of
+</I>&gt;<i> 15k... Add adding SSD on our side will break Dell warranty...
+</I>&gt;<i> - iDRAC6 Express (impi)
+</I>&gt;<i> Cost: ~1900 &#8364;*
+</I>&gt;<i> * last time, for sucuk, Dell sent me a 15% of rabate. So I think, I will
+</I>&gt;<i> have 15% once again... So it will make a server for ~1600 &#8364;
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> The only issue I can see is the HDD.
+</I>&gt;<i> For now, on rabbit:

+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> So, the question is: &quot;can you make live/DVD with 'only' 1,2 TB?&quot; :-)
+</I>&gt;<i> WDYT about this proposal?
+</I>
+I guess it's possible we can make copies of old builds in another file
+system stored on non SSD disk.
+
+I'm ok with this proposal :)
