Purpose

This document highlights our steps in building a very simple low end Webserver.

Hardware

We chose Dell for our build. Just a few key configuration items:

  • PowerEdge R250 Server
  • Intel Xeon E-2378G 2.8GHz, 16M Cache, 8C/16T, Turbo (80W), 3200 MT/s
  • PERC H755 Adapter, Low Profile
  • 4 3.5" 22 TB SATA drives
  • 128 GIG RAM
  • Broadcom 5719 Quad Port 1GbE BASE-T Adapter
  • Enterprise Drac

Installing Debian

Please refer to installing Debian articles.

Post install

  • Make sure sshd is running and proper space is showing for your drives.
# systemctl status sshd.service 
 ssh.service - OpenBSD Secure Shell server
# df -h | grep sda
/dev/sda2        60T  1.8G   57T   1% /
/dev/sda1       512M  5.9M  506M   2% /boot/efi

Now, you can close the lid and slide back your KVM and go to your workstation for the rest of the configuration, unless you were doing all this from iDRAC to start with. In that case, you can close the console and ssh into your server.

Get colors in .bashrc for root

Edit /root/.bashrc and un-comment two lines.

export LS_OPTIONS='--color=auto'
alias ls='ls $LS_OPTIONS'
