Hello,
I have been testing Spacewalk with success.
We are looking to have one Spacewalk Server with two Proxy servers.
We have roughly about 500+ Solaris/RedHat servers we want to monitor and
maintain.
What are typical bottlenecks experienced with Spacewalk/Satellite server?
Most of the (>70%) of the servers are located on our local network.
I assume that it will be one of the following:
1. Oracle Database (RAC 11gR2)
2. Physical Memory
3. CPU
4 Disk I/O
5 Network I/O
We are looking at using a server with a single Intel E5640 (Quad core w/ HT)
2.66 GHz with 6GB of RAM and two 10k RPM SAS drives in a RAID 1 configuration
for the Spacewalk and the 2-3 other proxy servers.
I plan to have 2-3 proxy servers horizontally tiered to a single Spacewalk
server.
Thanks in advance,
-Eric
