Production?

Scott Doty — 2012-02-10T19:07:36

I know the sense of many folks using Fedora is that it isn't appropriate
for production systems -- but despite this, I've used it in production
servers since FC1, and I'm not displeased with the results.

Does anyone else use Fedora on production servers?

RPMs to make server life easier

Michael R. Davis — 2011-11-13T02:54:53

Fedora Server Folks,
I'm not sure this is the correct forum for this but I think my goals match the Fedora Server SIG goals fairly well.  I've been a member of the list server for a while now but it's not very busy.  Anyway let's get down to business.


My goal is 100% RPM install for applications.  My company is mostly there but there are a few issues that are caused by the distribution that's why I'm here.

Internal yum repo.  We use an internal yum repo so that all of our server don't have to go out to the internet BUT the fedora-release RPM is causing issues.
    1) /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora*.repo files cannot be removed or better yet never installed.
    2) /etc/yum.repos.d is provided by fedora-release instead of filesystem or yum itself.

chrony - It looks like I'm going to like chrony better than ntp BUT.
    1) I'd like a way to specify our internal servers in a /etc/chrony.d/ like configurations instead of editing /etc/chrony.conf

httpd-on, couchdb-on, etc...
    1) doesn't every body need these too?  Why can't this just be part of Fedora?

oracle-instantclient11.2-basic
    1) Can we get the wrapper stuff from spacewalk as part of some Fedora-But repo.

I await your comments.  

Thanks,
Mike

My Introduction & some ideas

Joerg Stephan — 2009-11-19T17:11:26

Hello all,

my Name is Joerg Stephan and work as a Sysadmin at an Research Facility
in Germany. I'am using Linux since RedHat 5.1 after a virus crashed my
"other" OS. Maybe because of my work i'am interested in server systems,
so i thought it could be a good idea to join the ServerSIG.
On IRC you can find me in the #fedora-server channel as johe or johe|
work (depends on where i'am :-).

So had a short conversation with sharkcz (Don i think) and he replaced
the Server_overview side so i could add packages to it. While taking a
look at the side i thought it would be a  nice idea to change the
information on it a bit.

Cause this seems to be a team sport i just made a side 

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Server/ServersOverview_alpha

to have a discussion on this issue. Maybe on this side there could be
spread a bit more information. Installing instructions, known and not
fixed bugs could be refered on this side. 

I'am currently settle up an virtual server at my home, so it should no
problem installing a fedora server and so updating the versions
displayed on the side.

So let the discussion begin :-)

regards

Jörg

pure server packages

Dan Horák — 2009-10-05T15:56:02

Hi,

I am slowly creating a list of server packages (or application) that can
be installed without any interference with desktop libraries or other
stuff. The procedure is simple - run "yum install <foo>" in a minimal
installation and see what happens :-) Theoretical way would be to check
the dependency graphs for packages, but own experience is more
interesting.

URL for the list is

Common groups for web data

I often see problems like in bug#507406 [1] because I run lighttpd on some
servers.  Like the report says, having a separate group for web servers like
'www' or 'www-data' like debian does would go a long way for commonly
installed packages.

How do others feel about this?  Should we shoot for a feature for F13?  What
kind of problems are we going to run into with changing the group in all the
web packages?  What can we do to help people with the upgrade?
