Afaik 32-bit binaries do run on the 64-bit build and compat libraries exist for most everything. You should evaluate if you really *really* need 32-bit.
Yes, thanks for assuming I don't know what I was talking about when I wrote that we had a hard requirement for 32-bit in this application.
Since you seem to care, we're stuck with 32-bit for this particular server because it needs to use an uncommon PCI card that does have Linux drivers but they only work with 32-bit kernels.
Don't scream: I'm using RedHat 7.3 for related reasons.
Legacy is hard. Next time someone tells you they can't use the latest and greatest for some reason, you might take them at their word.
Worthy note.
Just a shot in the dark....but can't you have a x86_64 NFS server export a fs larger then 16TB, and mount that on your x86 machine for use with your application?
Bgrds, FOG
If a separate server can't be done, can a 64-bit system KVM-host a 32-bit OS to handle just that board and its application?
