Hi Here is what i try. I would like to separate databases use for ISPConfig3 (and webamil, etc) from database create by clients. So, I would like to create two instance of MySQL server with different ports (port 3306 for client instance and port for 23306 for ISPConfig3 instance). Any hint?
Yes, better a second server. But for now, I have only one. The question is more related to have distinct instance to drive ISPConfig related stuff and separate from clients database. If i understand correctly, the second server (or any other server) need mysql for ISPConfig too even if it's a slave. So same problem that clients database are serve on same port that ISPConfig database? If there are a security issue on mysql server, that's will compromise all system no??
If _you_ would like to move some databases to a 2nd instance / server, then you must of course change the configs. I don´t know why you would split the sql-server for ispconfig, webmail, client-databases.
Sorry for dummy question... Is there a risk, say for example, that a client database can crash the server instance ? I'm little paranoiac for sure but I don't like idea that whole server config is on same sql server than others non relate database! Another example, if a database-driven site use too much resource how this impact in the management part ?
Every mysql-user is limited to it´s own databases. There is no security-risk running all databases on the same sql-server.
I read furthermore on double instance... Security is a plus... Maintenance is a minus... My heart is between...
