Current state of VPAC clusters

After the weekend power down we are working on bringing back Edda and Wexstan but need to complete the following additional work first:

  • More storage! We are bringing about 12TB of storage online to replace the current allocations.
  • Updated firmware on Edda - this is to help fault detection and address various maintenance issues.
  • Updated Myrinet drivers on Wexstan - this is necessary to migrate its Myrinet connections from Brecca to Edda
  • Migrating to LDAP for user authentication - this is necessary to bring the new electronic system to apply for projects and accounts online

More news as we have it.
