Opinions on db operating systems Wanted
I am interested in hearing anyones opinions on what OS they would choose to run a MySQl db and the reasons why, of course. I have a task to build a db server for a project that will be very busy if things work as the creative minds think that it will. I am running a FreeBSD box right now on Athlon MP, but this box will be taken as soon as it is replaced by this machine right now. This machine works fine under current load, but I am not making the decisions. I am just interested in figuring out the best choice now, instead of finding that I could have made a better choice down the road when we are getting pouded with queries.
We are thinking about dual Opteron procs. Is there a better OS to run a 64 bit Mysql Innodb db in anyones experience?
Thanks,
Bob

perldgux
PERLDGUX(1) Perl Programmers Reference Guide PERLDGUX(1)
NAME
perldgux - Perl under DG/UX.
SYNOPSIS
One can read this document in the following formats:
man perldgux
view perl perldgux
explorer perldgux.html
info perldgux
to list some (not all may be available simultaneously), or it may be read as is: as README.dgux.
DESCRIPTION
Perl 5.7/8.x for DG/UX ix86 R4.20MU0x
BUILDING PERL ON DG
/UX
Non-threaded Perl on DG/UX
Just run ./Configure script from the top directory. Then give "make" to compile.
Threaded Perl on DG/UX
If you are using as compiler GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX) an easy solution for configuring perl in your DG/UX machine is to run the command:
./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads -Dusedevel -des
This will automatically accept all the defaults and in particular /usr/local/ as installation directory. Note that GCC-2.95.x rev(DG/UX)
knows the switch -pthread which allows it to link correctly DG/UX's -lthread library.
If you want to change the installation directory or have a standard DG/UX with C compiler GCC-2.7.2.x then you have no choice than to do an
interactive build by issuing the command:
./Configure -Dusethreads -Duseithreads
In particular with GCC-2.7.2.x accept all the defaults and *watch* out for the message:
Any additional ld flags (NOT including libraries)? [ -pthread]
Instead of -pthread put here -lthread. CGCC-2.7.2.x that comes with the DG/UX OS does NOT know the -pthread switch. So your build will fail
if you choose the defaults. After configuration is done correctly give "make" to compile.
Testing Perl on DG/UX
Issuing a "make test" will run all the tests. If the test lib/ftmp-security gives you as a result something like
lib/ftmp-security....File::Temp::_gettemp:
Parent directory (/tmp/) is not safe (sticky bit not set
when world writable?) at lib/ftmp-security.t line 100
don't panic and just set the sticky bit in your /tmp directory by doing the following as root:
cd / chmod +t /tmp (=set the sticky bit to /tmp).
Then rerun the tests. This time all must be OK.
Installing the built perl on DG/UX
Run the command "make install"
