File Server
[edit]Hardware
[edit]- mac mini
- external Promise RAID arrays, configured as extendable disk, so can just add more storage as needed.
- probably located in lab (close to VAX machines)
File server service
[edit]- NFS for calculation macs, hopefully for VMS
- Windows file server for Windows machines, and if necessary for VMS
- ssh server for remote access
- need to test performance of network disk access for calculation machines - will depend on software (i.e. amount of IO compared with other tasks)
Accounts
[edit]- User authentication provided to other computers, but only calculation macs
Subversion
[edit]- subversion repository.
- trac for web access to subversion repository (login required).
XGrid
[edit]- If we find it is useful and easy to set up and maintain.
Backup
[edit]- backup array probably in Steve's office
- dedicated mac mini for backup? or use an existing computer?
Other Comments
[edit]- not to be used as a workstation (maximum stability and reliability for file server)
