What is RAID and Clacification of RAID0,RAID1, RAID5 ,RAID6, RAID10, RAID50, RAID60.

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">What is RAID ?RAID is stand for Redundant Array of Independent Disks. RAID is now used as an umbrella term for computer data storage schemes that can divide and replicate data among multiple hard disk drives. RAID's various designs all involve two key design goals: increased data reliability or increased input/output performance. When multiple physical disks are set up to use RAID technology, they are said to be in a RAID array. This array distributes data across multiple disks, but the array is seen by the computer user and operating system as one single disk. RAID can be set up to serve several different purposes.   <div class="MsoNormal">Using Multiple Hard Drives for Performance and Reliability</div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">or others for RAID </div><div class="MsoNormal">RAID is a solution that was developed originally for the network server market as a means of creating large storage at a lower cost. Essentially, it would take multiple lower cost hard drives and put them together through a controller to provide a single larger capacity drive. This is what RAID stands for: redundant array of inexpensive drives or disks. To achieve this, specialized software and controllers were needed to manage the data being split between the various drives. Eventually the processing power of your standard computer system allowed the features to filter their way into the personal computer market.</div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">Now a RAID storage can be used for three distinct purposes. These include capacity, security and performance. Capacity is a simple one that is typically involved in most every type of RAID setup used. For instance, two hard drives can be linked together as a single drive to the operating system effectively making a virtual drive that is twice the capacity. Performance is another key reason for using a RAID setup on a personal computer. In the same example of two drives being used as a single drive, the controller can split a data chunk into two parts and then put each of those parts on a separate drive. This effectively doubles the performance of writing or reading the data on the storage system. Finally, RAID can be used for data security. This is done by by using some of the space on the drives to essentially clone the data that is written to both drives. Once again, with two drives we can make it so that the data is written to both drives. Thus, if one drive fails, the other still has the data.</div> Typical Apps  RAID 0 Data striping without redundancy . Highest performance No data protection; One drive fails, all data is lost High End Workstations, Data Logging, Real-Time Rendering, Transitory Data  RAID 1 Single Drive Failure Disk mirroring, Very high performance; Very high data protection; Very good on write performance High redundancy cost overhead; Because all data is duplicated, twice the storage capacity is required Operating Systems, Transactional Databases  RAID 5 Single Drive Failure , Block-level data striping with distributed parity Best cost/performance for transaction-oriented networks, Very high performance, very high data protection; Supports multiple simultaneous reads and writes, Can also be optimized for large, sequential requests Write performance is slower than RAID 0 or RAID 1 Data Warehousing, Web, Archiving, Basic File Servers, Disk Backup  RAID 6 2 Drive Failure Same as RAID 5 with x2 Parity distributed across an extra drive Offers Solid Performance with the additional fault tolerance of allowing availability to data if 2 disks in a RAID group to fail. Recommended to use more drives in RAID group to make up for performance and disk utilization hits compared to RAID 5 Must use a minimum of 5 drives with 2 of them used for parity so disk utilization is not as high as RAID 3/5. Performance is slightly lower than RAID 5 High Availability Solutions, Mission Critical Apps, Servers with Large Capacity Requirements  RAID 10 1 Disk Per Mirrored Stripe (not same mirror) Combination of RAID 0 (data striping) and RAID 1 (mirroring) Highest performance, highest data protection (can tolerate multiple drive failures) High redundancy cost overhead; Because all data is duplicated, twice the storage capacity is required; Requires minimum of four drives Databases, Application Servers RAID 50 1 Disk Per Mirrored Stripe Combination of RAID 0 (data striping) and RAID 5 (Single Parity Drive) Highest performance, highest data protection (can tolerate multiple drive failures) High redundancy cost overhead; Because all data is duplicated, twice the storage capacity is required; Requires minimum of four drives Databases, File Servers, Application Servers,  RAID 60 2 Disks Per Mirrored Stripe Combination of RAID 0 (data striping) and RAID 6 (Dual Parity Drives) Highest performance, highest data protection (can tolerate multiple drive failures) High redundancy cost overhead; Because all data is duplicated, twice the storage capacity is required; Requires minimum of four drives Root Extension of  RAID Disk Drive: High Availability Solutions, Mission Critical Apps, Servers with Large Capacity Requirements   <div class="MsoNormal">I've discussed the various pros and cons of each of the levels of RAID that can be used on personal computers but there is another issue that many people don't realize when it comes to creating RAID drive setups. Before a RAID setup can be used, it first must be constructed either by the hardware controller software or within the software of the operating system. This essentially initializes the special formatting required to properly track how the data will be written and read on the drive.</div><div class="MsoNormal"> </div><div class="MsoNormal">This probably doesn't sound like a problem but it is if you even need to change how you want your RAID array configured. For instance, say you are running low on data and want to add an extra drive for either a RAID 0 or RAID 5 array. In most cases, you won't be able to without first reconfiguring the RAID array which will also remove any of the data that was stored in those drives. This means that you have to fully back up your data, add the new drive, reconfigure the drive array format that drive array and then restore your original data back to the drive. That can be an extremely painful process. As a result, make sure you really have the array setup up the way you want to the first time you do it.</div> </div>

What is Mail Server ?

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">The backbone of the mail system is the Mail Transport Agent (MTA). It will handle receiving mail addressed directly to your machine, sending it to the correct users mail box, and sending mail out from the machine. I determined Postfix to be the best choice for my MTA and after some reading found Procmail for sorting mail, SpamBayes for detecting spam, and Fetchmail for grabbing mail from my pop mailboxes . A mail server usually consists of a storage area where where e-mail is stored for local users, a set of user definable rules which determine how the mail server should react to the destination of a specific message, a database of user accounts that the mail server recognizes and will deal with locally, and communications modules which are the components that actually handle the transfer of messages to and from other mail servers and email clients.  <h1>What is a Mail Server?</h1>With the click of a mouse button, you can send an email from one point of the globe to another in a matter of seconds. Most of us take this process for granted, giving little thought to how it actually works. It's easy to understand how standard snail-mail gets from point A to point B - but how does an email message make its way from a sender to a recipient? The answer to that question revolves around something called a mail server. You can learn more about the role that mail serves play in email delivery by reading on below. <h2>What is a Mail Server?</h2>A mail server is the computerized equivalent of your friendly neighborhood mailman. Every email that is sent passes through a series of mail servers along its way to its intended recipient. Although it may seem like a message is sent instantly - zipping from one PC to another in the blink of an eye - the reality is that a complex series of transfers takes place. Without this series of mail servers, you would only be able to send emails to people whose email address domains matched your own - i.e., you could only send messages from one example.com account to another example.com account. <img border="0" src="http://www.hypexr.org/gfx/mail_system_flow_tn.png" /> </div>

<a href="http://www.ipv4-ipv6.blogspot.com"></a><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> What is Proxy Server? A proxy server is a specific type of application server that routes HTTP requests to content servers that perform the work. Proxy servers can be classified according to the role that it plays in a system. This specific proxy server is classified as a reverse proxy server because the main function is to act as the first point of contact, not including the firewall, for client requests into enterprise server. <img alt="Overview of the proxy server" src="http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v7r0/topic/com.ibm.websphere.nd.doc/info/ae/ae/images/proxy_Topology.gif" />     <h4>Fore browser Proxy setup instructions:</h4><h4>You are Configure step by step : </h4><ul><li>Mozilla Firefox: Tools > Options > Advanced > Settings > Manual proxy configuration.</li><li>Google Chrome: Options > Under the hood > Network > Change proxy settings > LAN settings > Use a proxy server > Advanced > HTTP.</li><li>Internet Explorer: Tools > Internet options > Connections > LAN settings > Use a proxy server > Advanced > HTTP.</li><li>Opera: Tools > Preferences > Advanced > Network.</li></ul><h4>Anonymity levels</h4><ul><li>Level 1: No anonymity; remote host knows your IP and knows you are using proxy.</li><li>Level 4: Low anonymity; remote host does not know your IP, but it knows you are using proxy.</li><li>Level 8: Medium anonymity; remote host knows you are using proxy, and thinks it knows your IP, but this is not yours (this is usually a multihomed proxy which shows its inbound interface as REMOTE_ADDR for a target host).</li><li>Level 16: High anonymity; remote host does not know your IP and has no direct proof of proxy usage (proxy-connection family header strings). If such hosts do not send additional header strings it may be considered as high-anonymous. If a high-anonymous proxy supports keep-alive you can consider it to be extremely-anonymous. However, such a host is highly possible to be a honey-pot.</li></ul><h4>Planet Lab / CoDeeN</h4>PlanetLab proxy servers marked with a icon are from the Planetlab CoDeeN (CDN) Project, a network of educational Internet nodes at Princeton University.
