I currently have 2 Proliant DL360 G1 servers running as my
mailhub
machines. Dual P-III 800Mhz, dual 18GB SCSI drives,
mirrored RAID-1 on
built-in SMART Array controller, 768MB RAM.
They are running 6.1-STABLE, installed as 6.1-RELEASE boxes,
then source
upgraded to STABLE via normal buildworld procedures.
I had to disable ACPI on original install, and keep it off
(there is an
option under the installer where it asks you if you want to
keep it off
for the future), otherwise it would hang immediately upon
trying to boot.
Aside from that, the install went normally, and I've had
zero problems
since. The RAID array works flawlessly, I had a drive blow
out on one
machine, I just hot-swapped it with a new one, it rebuilt on
the fly, and
no on ever noticed anything. No reboot needed, which is the
way it should
work.
The machines are currently running main DNS services, plus
Postfix with
SpamAssassin, and are our primary MX border servers which
handle roughly
30-40k messages per day.
Hope this helps.

Hi!
I have an HP DL 385 Proliant server (2 rack unit). Two
dual-core AMD
Opteron processor, 3 GB of RAM, four 72 GB hotswap SCSI disk
in RAID1
+0.
Works fine with FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE.
