[Opensim-users] Exception

[InuYasha Meiji]

Wow, sorry so long in replying.  It took a while to read all this info, 
then a long few days of personal doctor's visits.  I am better now, but 
WOW!  This is going to be a huge undertaking.  I am a little worried 
about doing all this.  Right now it runs at least.  I can log onto my 
grid, a few friends can also, one all the way from Australia.  I have 
everything except search working.  I didn't bother going to all the 
trouble only because hardly any new viewers seem to suport the old way 
search used to work, and none so far lets you change the viewer from 
defaulting to SL's search web sight.  I might have to try to work out 
something with PHP and my own search web page. But for now, to conserve 
memory and run smoother I want to figure this out.

MY problem is, I don't want to loose any of my current data, builds, 
clothing ect.  I don't wish to be on hypergrid.  I wanted a way to run 
my 56 regions, cut up as 8 regions by 7 north to south.  I guess that 
could be 14 sets of 4 regions?

Reading the 
http://signpostmarv.name/2011/02/10/deploying-opensim-on-windows-server-2008/ 
information I am guessiong the clusters she speaks of is sort of like 
nameing each set of four??  So that ever 4 regions get their own 
directories??  She mentioned setting all these things to blank or 
comment out, and I say whoa, I have it all working, that will kill all 
my hard work getting all those to work properly.

I also already have many of the things she mentions installed and why it 
confuses me a bit.  Does Robust run opensim for you? Because if I want 
multiple instances won't I need more opened ports.  I already have them 
opens for all my regions.  Those that only means I need to open the 
ports I wasn't using before like 8002,8003?  The rest I had to get my 
stand alone going.

You can see why since I have my standalone working reading her blog, 
starting me at scratch would get confusing.

Hate to be a past, I hope you understand why.
Thanks for your time and effort.
InuYasha.

I'm pretty sure it's not available under Windows except if you use CygWin, and would probably not be much useful anyway (you can keep all the OpenSim instances simply running, each one on its cmd.exe shell, all open). On the other hand, and this is just an opinion, going through the pains of installing CygWin on top of a Windows server is a bit overkill these days.

I've tried to look for a Windows replacement to "monit" but couldn't find anything which is as lightweight as "monit" and provides similar functionality, but I'm sure there are other tools allowing you to check for running processes in Windows 7 somehow (there are tons of them for Unix; monit is just very simple and convenient, and easy to configure) and restart them when they reach certain thresholds.

Most of your page is geared to Lynix and MAC, I can convert most of it and know what I am doing. I do want to be more positive on this line:
