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)
