What best raid configuration

It depends on how heavily you're going to load the server. RAID5 will give you more disc space with 4 drives than RAID10 will, but RAID10 will give you better performance.

It doesn't really have anything to do with Xibo - it's a general question about the advantages/disadvantages of RAID levels. Xibo mainly does sequential reads - with some random reads.

Thanks for fast reply,

Sir if we dispose 20 xibo client, what are the things or configuration that we really need to avoid really don't to forget?

thanks

I can't answer that question. It depends on what the 20 clients are doing. Are they sending stats? What version of the clients are they? How frequently does the media change? How many users are updating the clients with new media etc etc.

The only way you can answer that question is to setup one client and one server and put real-world sample traffic through them and see how much load your usage causes. From that you can work out what kind of server you need, how much IO performance you need etc.

Alex

Clients doing:
1. playing flash
2. h264 video format

Sendind status:
yes

Client version:
python client ver 1.2.2

media change:
if any media update materials will send 15 day before

no. client updates
20 clients with same media

same telco network.
is there any you can suggest us?

thanks

In that case I can't see that it'll make any difference what RAID configuration you choose.

raid5 configuration sir,

is xibo have a feature in client to delete unused materials, like have already deleted from xibo server?

Thanks Alex Harrington, that solved my question.
