Created page with '__TOC__ = before installation = '''there are no defaults that fit your needs''' - irm is simple to implement but you have to decide what you need BEFORE you start an produc…'

New page

__TOC__

= before installation =
'''there are no defaults that fit your needs''' - irm is simple to implement 
but you have to decide what you need BEFORE you start an productive environment! 
using irm and iRedOS is simple and easy - but there are some points you want to read before you present a "finished server" to a customer...

== before installation of your OS ==
* [[Addition/Disk_alignment |align your disk-partitions before creating filesystems]]
* [[Addition/ext4 |format your /var/vmail partition using ext4]]

== after installation of your prefered OS ==
* [[Addition/NTP |Keep your computer-time in sync]]
== before installing irm ==
== before creating user-accounts ==
* [[Addition/dovecot_zlib_transfer |enable zlib plugin for dovecot's transfer]]
* [[Addition/dovecot_zlib_storage |enable zlib plugin for dovecot's 2.x storage]]
= backups =
== config-files ==
whenever you can :) 
keep a copy of /etc 
slapcat your openldap

== mail-data ==
we are talking about defaults: 
maildir for mail-storage means: rsync might be enough

== mysql-data ==
== ldap-data ==
== recovery ... oops ==
if you really need to read this ... yeah, shi### happens ;)

but you are not alone! 
we will provide you some '''BAD''' practice and hints on what NOT to do! 
if you need to read this - please follow this procedure:

'''Stop reading, take a cup of coffee and come back in 5 minutes'''
