It's a Dell server with the following spec:

PE2950 Quad-Core Xeon E5335 2.0GHz, dual
4GB 667MHz memory
3 x 73GB SAS 15000 rpm disk
PERC 5/I Integrated controller card (8 ports, 256MB cache, battery backup) x 6 backplane


Is this ok to run PostgreSQL 8.2.x and Tomcat on? And does anyone know if this PERC controller is supported under
Linux (not heard of it before...)


Regards,

BTJ
