<p>2001:468:C80:4321:A288:B4FF:FE8A:761C: </p> <hr /> <div>The CVL is quite messy now due to recent hardware acquisitions. VTLUUG should do the following:<br /> * Replace Sunway patch cables with our own<br /> * Mount/put on rails all rackmount servers<br /> * Cleanup the 3 unrackable towers we use<br /> ** Put underneath the ghetto cluster?<br /> * Find somewhere to put the giant SGI monitor (won't fit in a rack)<br /> * Get a more stable way to hold a monitor in rack 1<br /> * Cable management (rack 1 especially)<br /> * Clean out unused servers from rack 1<br /> ** Telnoratti has been doing this and recording their specs<br /> ** Figure out who owns these, can possibly cannibalize<br /> * Move KVM switch to middle of the rack (cables aren't long enough)<br /> * Inventory spare components, document on wiki<br /> * Make 10-12U of space at the bottom of rack 1 if possible (PE2900s coming soon)<br /> * Label all machines <br /> ** Should have hostname, IP, contact (or mail alias), and services running on it<br /> ** Also should have owner if applicable<br /> <br /> See [[funding]] for a list of things we are seeking for cable management, etc<br /> <br /> [[Category:VTLUUG Projects]]</div>

<p>2001:468:C80:4321:A288:B4FF:FE8A:761C: /* Services needed */</p> <hr /> <div>=== ECE donations ===<br /> VTLUUG inherited several machines in May 2013 from ECE.<br /> * 1 gray Poweredge tower<br /> ** Has at least one Xeon (unknown specs)<br /> ** Unknown memory, probably ECC<br /> ** 2x 1TB HDDs currently, space for at least 2 more<br /> ** Dell PERC (RAID controller)<br /> * 1 black poweredge tower, unknown specs<br /> ** Has at least one Xeon (unknown specs)<br /> ** Unknown memory, probably ECC<br /> ** Has built-in RAID1 controller, holds 2 drives<br /> * 2x PowerEdge 2900s from 2006 (ECE isn't done with these yet)<br /> ** Each has Dual Xeons (either dual or quad core) with virt extensions<br /> ** 16 GB memory<br /> ** 10 HDD bays<br /> ** Dual gigabit NICs<br /> ** To be named cyberdelia and gibson<br /> ** Can run KVM, Xen/XCP, or something else<br /> * We also might be getting a RAID box, another server, and/or extra hard drives by the end of FY2013<br /> <br /> === Spare parts ===<br /> We've recently acquired the following which we can cannibalize/use:<br /> * mutantmonkey's old router (deadish mobo, everything else works)<br /> * The 5U case from ftp3.freebsd.org (missing drive bays)<br /> * SGI monitor with 2x VGA inputs (from telnoratti)<br /> <br /> === Services needed ===<br /> We currently could use:<br /> * A machine to replace wood to host at least acidburn, milton, and blade<br /> ** See [[EL Migration Project]]<br /> ** Milton should provide public_html directories for users<br /> * Another auth server (Kerberos/LDAP slave) with a global v4 (preferably a physical machine)<br /> * Dedicated file server (Kerberized NFSv4? AFS?)<br /> * Stable replacement for mirror.ece.vt.edu (telnoratti is taking it over)<br /> ** Could potentially use filebox2/3 for storage<br /> * Some sort of video conferencing - big blue button, SIP server, etc<br /> * Old services (see [[Project Bringing Sexy Back]]), e.g. gopher, finger, telnet BBS<br /> * Dtella node to mirror DEFCON talks, 29c3 talks, etc<br /> ** Dtella test network to port IPv6<br /> <br /> [[Category:VTLUUG Projects]]</div>
