Hi guys,
Is the preconfigured VM ok to work in production? Or is it more advisable
to do a fresh install using the installer?
Is the configuration on a guide anywhere? Is it excessive or pretty easy?
regards
Dudley
Dudley,
Depends on your use case.
The VM works fine in production but you should change the passwords,
tweak the settings to support your deployment (e.g., bigger drives,
more ram), and make sure the hardware backing the VM is sufficiently
sturdy. But if you are going to do all that anyway, then it's probably
the same amount of work to install Aggregate natively and gain full
control of the stack.
Either way you go, you might want to add SSL certs, fail2ban,
logrotate and all that jazz. A good IT shop should be able to do all
this work, but the team at Nafundi is glad to customize a VM or a
fresh machine for you.
So if you are a experienced with VMs or like the portability and
flexibility that a VM offers, then the VM makes sense in production.
If you are comfortable running servers on bare hardware and want full
control, then the installer isn't that much harder.
