Hi,
I'm building a MTA with 6 postfix. (only for sending mail to Internet). Or, in others word: I MUST round robin with 6 ip sources. The round robin is ready, I don't speak about this.
I have only 2 servers. (quadCore Xeon, for RAM: I can choose ) I'm testing 3 OS under a vmware ESXi. I'm testing performance OS too: 1 FreeBSD, 1 OpenBSD, 1 Debian (per server). I'm a FreeBSD user, but my boss don't known BSD OS, so I must "test". But I know the result of the choice (read in my mind !)
What do you think about my technologies choices? Install 2 ESXi, each with 3 FreeBSD? (actually, it works. I set up the same VIP to the as an alias loopback on each host). Or Install 2 FreeBSD, each with 3 jails? (How do I configure VIP?)
Another question: there is no interest with ZFS under ESXI ?
Thanks you.
