  • naka-enable ba sa inyo ang Auto Reboot the largest Writeback Data Client?

    Lahat yan Boss

    @Metal
    Once na rich kasi ang max Writeback limit, biglang magre-restart ang client pc. Try to reformat your Writeback then, check if ganoon pa rin ang magiging performance rate.

    noong unang nilabas ang features na yan, sinubukan ko. Pero hindi ok para sa akin.

  • @CCBoot users

    Sino po sa inyo ang nakapagcreate na nang Windows 10 image, any feedback po.

    Thank you
  • I just tested out this CCBOOT via vmware, plan ko din try implement sa shop ko. I actually tested the difference between windows 7 and 10 and i find windows 7 boot way much faster.

    The testing i'm doing is to have a usuable system by opening the start menu. How much it would take to boot them. This is just the freshly installed OS without any optimization or software.

    You would see significant read and writeback sa Windows 10 as compare to Windows 7. If you multiply this to the number of clients, this is very significant if walang hardware to back this up.

    I think i just might stick with Windows 7 as i see it, but with proper hardware and optimization sa Windows 10, i think wala naman din problem especially pag cache na yung OS.

  • Anyone be kind enough to share Kung ilang hdd and ssd nyo sa Server. I'm planning it like this.

    1 HDD = OS + image (I'll just use my existing 500gb) maybe 120gb ssd na din?
    2 HDD (raid 0) = game disk 2 x 500gb = 1 TB
    1 ssd = 120gb for writeback
    1 ssd = 120gb for cache.

    not sure if it's enough for a 16 units shop. How do you observed the disk idle state? and how about the ssd size ok na kaya sya for writeback and cache?

  • ^

    500gb hdd = OS + data/image
    500gb hdd = game disk
    120gb ssd = wb
    120gb ssd = cache or image
  • ^ thank you sir!, ilang units nga yan?
  • ^

    safe na safe yan pang 20units.
  • @ryandegreat25

    my existing setup for 20 units
    Total ram capacity: 32gb Kingstone HyperX 8gb*4 dimm DDR3-1600
    Microsoft Windows 7 x64
    Cybercafepro: Timer

    1 SSD AData 240gb: CCBoot server OS
    1 SSD Adata 128GB: Image
    1 SSD Corsair Neutron 120GB: Game cache
    1 SSD Corsair Neutron 120gb: Writeback
    1 WD Caviar Black 1TB hdd: Game disk
    plus additional
    1 WD 1tb hdd: Other applications such as MS Office, Adobe products, JAVA, etc, plus, Shared files over the network.

  • ^ Thank you sir. Medyo overkill lang sa dami ng ssd balak ko sana medyo budget Hehe. anyway I'm considering adding probably 2 to 3 120gb SSD.

    yung image I remember 8gb sa win7 and 11gb sa win10.
    fresh installed lang sila as is. Btw the windows 10 is RTM version Yung unang release. Di kasi supported ng gamit kong vmware yung Anniversary Version.
  • @ryandegreat25

    Super liit ng Win7 mo Sir hah. More on gaming lang ba yong plan mo? I imagine, pano yong flash player, pdf reader, java, at iba pang kailangan ng customer? MS Office? Saan mo ito ilalagay Boss?

    Server kasi ang buhay ng Diskless, nung una, dalawa lang ang SSD ko, after makaipon, inunti-unti ko.
  • ^ ahh ok, ahm yung size is di ko pa alam eh Sir. kasi for testing purposes lang talaga yung ginawa ko sa machine

    yes sir gaming purposes tong current na gamit ko.
    yung current backup image ko sa Shop ngaun i know about 22gb including all the basic tools (MS Office, pdf, Java, etc )

    but traditional setup ako as of now using WINPE image to install sa mga client pc. and medyo mahirap mag maintain lalo na sa Games.

    since newbie pa talaga ko sa ccboot, just trying to understand the pros and cons hehe. I'll probably start looking at all in one server specs, last resort ko na yung dedicated Setup.

  • nag try ako mag skylake ngayon. balak ko kasing mag upgrade ng ibang units. kaso di ko mapa boot yung gigabyte h110m-ds2 ko. nag pnptools, collect and merge, add inf na ako. ginamit ko na rin ang gpxe,gpex0,gpxex,ipxe.. basta lahat ng option dun, ginamit ko na pero di ko pa rin nagawa. ayokong mag update ng ccboot. dami na kasing tao sa ngayon. may way ba na mapa boot ko ito without creating a new image or updating the ccboot server? buti di ko pa nakuha yung ibang unit. papaplitan ko muna uli ng haswell.

    kung gumamit ba ako ng intel lan card na kasama na sa listahan ng nic sa server, ok na ba yun?
  • sino na nag update sa new version? di kasi ako fan ng updates. lalo na pag working naman current version ko. kaso, sabi sa akin ng ccboot, kailangan ko daw i update sa new version ang server at image ko. hays.. wala bang ibang way?
  • ^

    kung hindi talaga kailangan ayaw ko rin mag update!
  • Good morning setting up branch 2. (yung branch 1 naka traditional set up)

    Questions lang po.

    1. Sa server side anong mainam na set up mga drives ko for 20 clients.

    2pcs kingston v400 ssd 120gb
    3pcs 1TB WD blue

    2. Meron po ba tayong reseller ng CCboot locally. (baka meron po kayong coupon code para maka discount).
  • share nyo naman kung ano laman o mga naka install sa image nyo.

    thanks
  • ^

    os, directx at netframe.
  • ^ purely OS lang talaga, ibig sabihin hindi kaylangan ng regular backup dito?

    sa game disk naman tama ba na naka read only lang ito sa client? hindi nila mabubura?

  • ok lang bang magkaiba version ng client at server? sabi kasi ng youngsoft sa akin, i-try ko munang i-update ang client ko at baka sakaling mapa-boot ko ang skylake ko without creating a new image. saka ko na lang daw i-update server ko. balak ko sana, kung mapa-boot ko sa new version ng client, di ko nai-update ang client.
  • Question lang po regarding hardware specs ng client..

    I have 10 PCs on diskless with the following hardware:
    Intel Pentium G3250
    ECS B8H3-M7
    Apotop 4gb DDR3
    Asus GT730

    magdadagdag po ako ng bagong PC ulit 4pcs. pero baka bago ng specs wala kasi ako mahanapan ng same specs from before
    Intel Pentium G3240
    ECS B5H3-M7

    kailangan ko po ba magupdate ng image?? pag ganito na yun setup?
  • depende sir, kung hindi same ng lan driver. pero madali lang naman yan. pnp tool or add inf na lang sa server... sa skylake ako nagkaproblema. hehe. mukhang need ng new image or update ccboot client/server muna bago mapa-boot.

    try mu kung mag boot yung lumang image mu muna, if yes update lang kailangan ng image for proc. if not kailangan gumawa ng bagong image.
  • Guys question, plano ko ipa diskless mga units ko [27 total].

    Eto spare items ko, pwede na po ba ito?

    Procie: i3 4160
    MoBo: Z87 G41
    Ram: 2x8gb Ripjaws DDR3
    HDD: 2 SSD + 1TB Black [will buy]
    VC: GT 730 [4gb] DDR3


    Clients:
    20 units AMD 6400k w/ 4gb Ripjaws
    5 units AMD 4020k w/ 4gb Ram + 1gb VC [mix amd/intel]

    Thanks!
  • pansin ko parang madamin AMD user kesa sa intel,
    sa mga AMD user di pa ba kayo nasiraan ng proce?
  • Nope. Never pa akong nasiraan ng proc kahit intel or amd ung gamit ko. Cpu ang isa sa mga pinakamatibay na part ng pc. Usually mauuna pang masira ang mobo at psu mo bago ang cpu kahit heavily overclocked at ovetvolted pa ang cpu mo kaya mas advisable bumili ng 2nd hand cpu kaysa 2nd hand mobo or psu.
  • mga sir, tanung lang po ang bagal mag load ng games sa client lalo na pag bagong bukas inaabot ng 5-10 mins. anu po kaya problem nun?
    eto po server specs:
    amd a4 3.7 ghz
    msi a78 mobo
    2x 8gb hyperx memory
    1 tera for games
    1 120gb ssd for writeback
    1 120gb ssd for image and os
    1 pcie single port lan
    2 16 ports switch (dlink and tp link)

    22 clients same specs amd a8 (7500 and 7600), 4gb hyperx memory

    hope na matulungan nyo po ako GOd Bless po
  • ^try consider teaming or multi Ports server para hindi bottleneck sa server.
  • @akimo

    post mo nga sir cache settings mo?
    check mo rin gamedisk mo, use hdtune. baka may tama na. tapos punta ka performance, baka nababa idle (%)..
