    ubuntu server 12.04, postgresql and hard disk size?

    I will give it a try when I go back to office tomorrow. Upon curiosity, I assume I can't just increase the size of /var/lib. But instead the whole drive which consist or /var /etc /opt ... Is that correct? Thanks.

    ubuntu server 12.04, postgresql and hard disk size?

    Thanks for replying back. As for your reply here If you need to add more storage, you simply add the disk to your vm, create a "pv" on it, add it to the "vg" of whatever the system is installed on and then "extend" the lv. No need to shut down postgres, or reboot or anything. Do you...

    Networking for remote area?

    I will check whether there's any pipe underground. It may have. But again it's kind of a desert to me. So if say I do point to point between office 1 to office 2. In between there's trees and buildings blocking, do I have to place my wifi hardware above of those? Does this matter? Will...

    Networking for remote area?

    sorry, i should have been more clear on this. The location is at Newman, Western Australia. For wifi, it's between blocks within the same compound. It's also between 2 offices buildings - distance 500m - 1km. For fiber, I am not sure it's a good idea. Everything is expensive in Newman...

    Networking for remote area?

    Hi everyone, I need some help here. I need to setup IT infra at a remote location. The internet here is really slow and quite unstable. Since this is a remote area, the internet service provider has very little coverage and it's really expensive here. My scenario:- I have 2 offices in this...

    Share internet bandwidth from HQ to branch?

    i see. but weird, there's this vendor claiming it's possible. basically they are doing this:- datacenter having super huge bandwidth - metro-e, dedicated lines (which they confident to secure really cheap than normal price - probably due to bulk buy, no idea how they did that) then if i want...

    Share internet bandwidth from HQ to branch?

    Hi everyone, Like to check on this possibility. Let's say I have this. HQ - 50MB dedicated line Branch - 10MB DSL line (not dedicated but go through few hops) Now both HQ and Branch are connected via IPSec Site-to-Site VPN. Could I allow Branch to take advantage of the HQ...

    Boost internet speed? is this possible?

    so you mean, if my line is 2MB and by connecting to the above VPN and when I do speed test, it will show 4MB line due to the higher throughput at the endpoint? Is that what you meant?

    Boost internet speed? is this possible?

    Thanks everyone for replying back. If that's how they do it, that's cheating. Is there any way or tools I can use to see whether they are cheating or not? Other than having to press speedtest.net button every time for 1 hour and divide to get the average speed? But how could a WAN...

    Boost internet speed? is this possible?

    To say that tweaking TCP/IP could increase bandwidth to be greater than the total throughput capacity of the circuit is ridiculous >> That was what they claimed :) Example, another claim leased line 2MB (guarantee stability, probably get 1.7MB actual bandwidth, uptime/downtime...

    Boost internet speed? is this possible?

    Hi everyone, Like to check. Let's assume I have 2 internet lines (1 is the main internet and 2nd is the backup, in case the 1st goes down). Both is 2MB line but different service provider. Last week I met a supplier which claimed to invent a technology. Basically you put this box inside your...
