filesystem sizes urgent
Hi I have two problem
have a application developed on windows .Now I need it to install on Red Hat 4 upgrade 2. 1)The support team is asking that "We need the filesystem sizes to build this system" so what is this filesystem sizes and what would be answer of this quote. 2)I have two directory path on windows a)H:\Data b)\\p.skl.com\john\Home\My Documents\IBM\ wsappdev51 (for websphere instaaltion) Now they are asking that on which path of linux this should be done I have no idea of linux or its directory structure |
1. By "filesystem sizes," I'm guessing they want to know the sizes of your partitions. In Windows, this can be done by going into My Computer, right-clicking each local disk, and then clicking Properties. This will give the total size of the disk or partition (Windows does not distinguish between the two in a user-accessible fashion). I'm guessing your support team wants to know the sizes of each of these.
2. The directory in which most applications will be installed in Linux is /usr/bin. On big multi-user systems, this can also be /usr/local/bin. The difference between the two is that /usr/bin contains most of the general-purpose and system-wide apps, whereas /usr/local/bin contains more specialty apps. It really doesn't matter which, as long as users can access the app in question. Hope this helps :) |
thanxs pda for prompt reply but still better to clear the doubts
1)I have follwoing specification of linux. and I have to deploy only one j2ee application. Now if someone ask you the same question "Thank you for sending the document so promptly,but there are no filesystems with sizes, are you sure you don’t need specific filesystems?We need the filesystem sizes to build this system. Can you get somebody to give you the sizes?" Now I am looking for answer of this question 1 x DL380 2 dual cpu’s (4 cpu’s) 4 GB ram 2 x 73 GB internal disk 2 x 1 gig network cards redhat4linux 2)I have a text file in H:\Audit folder. so in linux where I should keep this file. path for this file is set in properties file |
1) There is no such thing as filesystem size. What they have given you is a vague question. You need to ask more questions so this vague question can be understood.
For any server, I suggest seperating the OS drive and file drive. By seperating, you can make backups easier and you can upgrade the file drive with out effecting the OS drive. Also make sure memory is both ECC and parity (registered) or else the server will have a lot of glitches and crashes. 2) Like what pda_h4x0r have said. You can place the location where the file server will provide its services. For example, you could create two directories under the root directory (/) named samba-data and samba-p.skl.com. Then setup SAMBA to use these directories to serve your clients. |
so i can reply them back that use the whole system for linux installation?

Hi this is the case only.I have war file fully developed on windows onlythat I am going to deploy on linux.
What is this wine I have no idea. |
Wine is a windows emulator. It allows you to run normal windows .exe's in linux. But your j2ee app is java right? In which case you shouldnt need wine.
