[Trackback URL for this entry] Sat Jun 03 10:03:37 PST working on the new server:

alh has a saturday class for a few weeks, so I am home working on the new server. It's the first time that I have built a new server out of mostly top-shelf components. It's an SMP system with two dual-core Opteron 265s, and 4 GB of RAM in a NUMA layout. The motherboard is an ASUS K8N-DL and it fits in most normal ATX cases (most NUMA boards don't).

It's a little crazy, but I'm hoping to get Xen running on here so I can offload some of my poorly managed domains to a virtual server. I'm also hoping to run MythTV on this box and use it as a home media server. And as my web, shell, and network router. Kind of a tall order.
