[Dxspider-support] Dxspider-support Digest, Vol 227, Issue 9

[Howard Leadmon]

   Hello Joe,

Hey just wanted to say thanks, and glad to hear the uptime on WB3FFV-2 
has been fantastic, it's a really old dual-core Xeon server, but for 
sure more resources than the node needed.     The new node is on a pair 
of Xeon  E5-2680 CPU's, but again needless to say way more power than 
needed, so it's just one of several VM's I am running on my server.   
All in a commercial data-center over fiber links, the goal was to create 
a 24/7/365 reliable hub, and it's worked well.  I am a believer in 
updates, so as my motd says, I restart at times to make sure updates are 
applied, but that is it..

73's...

When I pulled the trigger I moved off a Pi3B to a Pi4 and tarred the /spider directory, restored it on the new machine, adjusted permissions and it was good to go.  Am considering moving it to a different Pi4 with 8GB of RAM, a 250GB SSD and is running 64 bit Debian 10.
