smakovits Posted September 7, 2013 Author Share Posted September 7, 2013 Ok, got my breakout cable. Can Xenserver run off compact flash? Same for Linux with Xen, but I assume not for the later because of read and write of the Linux os. Quote Link to comment
vl1969 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Ebay, 7.50, ordered. I also managed t locate my case http://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/3U/933/SC933T-R760.cfm PSU is triple redundant, 360 x 3, 760 total, so what does that mean for the number of PSUs I need to run at a time? If I can pull 1 or 2 then I obviously cut down the volume greatly. Well judging by the look of it, you will need to do the psu mod to cut down on noise. No if or buts about it. 3 psus huh ....

vl1969 Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Can Xenserver run off compact flash? Yes it can but its not too easy. But still possible. Google the run xenserver from usb Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 4 Quote Link to comment

I think its easier with linux+xen as you can put boot partition on usb and ithers on hdd. But if you have to have regular hdd you might as well run from it.

You do have to actually pop them out as an alarm will sound if its installed but not plugged in. Quote Link to comment
smakovits Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Good to know Steven. Are you running stock psu or did you go with some sort of mod? I concluded I could almost run unraid on its own and nix the vms I use for sick beard and such, but I need somewhere for my firewall still. I can do pci pass through to 2 different vms right? I do it now for my Nic card in esx. So I would need that, but the also my sas cards now too. Quote Link to comment
