Veritas license management

Fixing “morning inaccessible” bug in modperl
There was a strange problem with our ensembl server that usually the server becomes “inaccessible” in the morning, but when we tested a few times, the server works extremely well during the day. However, it becomes “inaccessible” again tomorrow morning.
Tuning Apache server for Ensembl
One of our web server response “500 internal server error” occasionally. As this server is used for ensembl, which incurs 20-30 background process for each *view (i.e. contigview, geneview), we figured out a few tunable parameters for better performance.
Ensembl mirror inaccessbile under intensive MySQL requests
The background for this issue that our user found local ensembl mirror sometimes inaccessible, but after a few refresh the pages comes out again. I realized the problem was caused by the small default value of max_connections in MySQL server, and the fact the ensembl uses DBI instead of Apache::DBI in the perl.startup script.
In the latest CVS code of ensembl, perl.startup file still uses “DBI” module, soI believe it will have potential performance issues on other mirror sites.
