Full Discussion: Server Setup
Operating Systems Linux Gentoo Server Setup Post 302234606 by era on Wednesday 10th of September 2008 02:09:52 AM
Old 09-10-2008
A Linux distribution [Wikipedia] is a collection of software built around the Linux kernel, like Slackware, Debian, Gentoo, or Red Hat. They all have different conventions and tools, although Red Hat's package management framework RPM is widely used in other Linux distributions. We assume that you are not simply downloading the latest Linux kernel from kernel.org and deploying it along with your own private, hand-picked compilation of user-space utilities (although I suppose that still happens).

So: these 3,000 Linux hosts, are they already out there, and are they running some sort of package management tool or even a well-known distribution such as Red Hat? Or are you going to install and deploy them from scratch?

Would running the Tomcat server in a virtualization environment (e.g. VMware Player) be an option?

I'm not sure I completely grasp which aspect is the main problem here; getting the servers installed and deployed, or designing a scalable infrastructure? Also the stuff about the IPs and ports, is that an installation-time problem or something which needs to continue to work throughout the servers' existence?

subscription-manager-gui

subscription-manager-gui(8)				       Subscription Manager				       subscription-manager-gui(8)

NAME

       subscription-manager-gui - Launches the UI client of the Subscription Manager.

SYNOPSIS

       subscription-manager-gui [--register]

DESCRIPTION

       subscription-manager-gui  opens	the  local client tool to manage subscriptions and installed products on Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems.
       The same tasks that can be performed by invoking subscription-manager can be performed in the GUI, including  registering  systems  with  a
       subscription management service, applying and removing subscriptions, and viewing the subscription status of installed products.

       The Subscription Manager UI can also be opened by selecting the Red Hat Subscription Manager item from the Applications > System Tools menu
       in RHEL 5.x or the System > Administration menu in RHEL 6.x.

OPTIONS

       --register
	      If a system has not yet been registered, then the GUI registration page can be opened immediately, as the Subscription  Manager  GUI
	      comes up. This is only relevant for unregistered systems; if this is used after a system is registered, the option is ignored.

REFERENCES

       For  procedures	and  tasks that can be performed in the Subscription Manager UI, check the Gnome help files (by pressing <F1>) or refer to
       the RHEL Subscription  Management  Guide  at  <https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Subscription_Management/1.0/html/Sub-
       scription_Management_Guide/index.html>.

ASSOCIATED FILES

	      * /etc/rhsm/rhsm.conf

BUGS

       This  client  is  part of Red Hat Subscription Manager. To file bugs against this client, go to https://bugzilla.redhat.com, and select Red
