Today one of my server crashed. I am an inexperienced admin, looked |
2 |
through log files and determain berkdb is very much likly crashed. |

My administration rule of thumb is "to keep it simple and stupid", so I |
5 |
hate to have all different software with same function all around. I |
6 |
configured the openldap, cryus, postfix, webapplicaton and web analizer |
7 |
all use berkdb, in fact many of them could be configured to use gdbm or |
8 |
mysql, but I hate to add administration difficulty by using different |
9 |
software. |

Now I am thinking perhaps I am wrong. "simple and stupid" maybe makes |
12 |
the system risky. In my case, berkdb crashed (reason not clear yet. Now |
13 |
still working on recover data) and openldap, cyrus .... all about a |
14 |
dozen of software depending on berkdb no longer work. If I seperate |
15 |
them, use different db for different purpose, I am putting eggs in may |
16 |
baskets. |

Just wish to hear your suggestions. Yours |
