Hi

Yes the CPU is under heavy load, you can run these services - I do. But performance is not high. The VIA CPU is fan-less and that is the attraction.

I'm working on more configurations:)

Installation and Upgrades / Low power consumption Zentyal

« on: January 17, 2011, 07:11:59 pm »

Hi Forum

We at Interlinux Ltd (UK Bronze Partner) have been testing Zentyal on low powered Mini-ITX motherboards. We think this is an excellent way to promote Zentyal for small home offices (home offices are very popular in the UK) and small enterprise.

This is a description of our example gateway server for 1-5 users:

CPU: model name: VIA Esther processor 1000MHz, cache size : 128 KB
Ram: 500MiB
HDD: 2.5 inch 5400rpm 60GiB
Power Supply: 60W
Average CPU time: 0.3-0.5

Zentyal Services:

Network       
Firewall
Antivirus       
DHCP
Backup       
Events
Logs
Mailfilter
Monitor
Users and Groups
Webserver
Mail
Filesharing
Groupware (Zarafa)

Modifications:

/etc/init.d/zarafa-indexer stop
/etc/crontab set daily,weekly and monthly for 03:00hrs

I intend to attach a Current Cost IAM device to monitor power consumption http://currentcost.co.uk
