This tutorial describes the installation of an ISPConfig 3 multiserver setup with dedicated web, email, database and two DNS servers all managed trough a single ISPConfig 3 control panel. The setup described below uses five servers and can be extended easily to to a higher number of servers by just adding more servers. E.g. if you want to have two mailservers, do the setup steps from chapter 2 on both of these servers. If you want to set up more web servers, then install ISPConfig on all other web servers in expert mode except of the first one. More…

The Apache 1.3.41 bundled with ISPConfig might need a change in the stdio.h file of
your Linux distribution to compile correctly. This change is described in the “Perfect
Server” tutorials and is only needed for newer Linux versions. If you have not modified
the stdio.h file as you installed ISPConfig, then it might be nescessary to do it
before you install the update or the update might fail.

Debian 5.0: No change needed.
CentOS 5.5: No change needed.
Fedora 13, see chapter 16: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-fedora-13-x86_64-ispconfig-2-p5
OpenSuSE 11.x, see chapter 17: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-opensuse-11.2-x86_64-ispconfig-2-p6
Ubuntu 10.4, see chapter 22: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu-10.04-lucid-lynx-ispconfig-2-p7

If you are unsure if your linux version is affected, please take a look into the
ISPConfig 2 “Perfect Server” guide for the Linux distribution you use.

This tutorial describes the installation of a clustered Web, Email, Database and DNS server to be used for redundancy, high availability and load balancing on Debian 5 with the ISPConfig 3 control panel. GlusterFS will be used to mirror the data between the servers and ISPConfig for mirroring the configuration files. I will use a setup of two servers here for demonstration purposes but the setup can scale to a higher number of servers with only minor modifications in the GlusterFS configuration files. read more…
