[SAC] OSGeo7 Sever Config Quote

[Regina Obe]

Alex,

This looks good to me +1.  Really excited to have a new Box in place.

I'm also thinking that with the new box, we could start off-loading osgeo3,4 and allow Lance to upgrade the ganeti on them.
Since we won't have anything mission critical -- after we migrate mission critical stuff to osgeo7, if hardware on osgeo4 fails during upgrade, I assume it wouldn't be a big deal.
As I recall, was it only osgeo4 that had a hardware issue? 

Thanks,
Regina

Subject: [SAC] OSGeo7 Sever Config Quote

Here's the latest quote for us to discuss server configuration for OSGeo7.

The plan based on discussions is to manage KVM virtual machines, lvm drives, with libvirt. At such time that we feel we need to go to something more advanced because we are managing multiple physical machines we could convert to ganeti or openstack (less sure about how to convert to openstack).

The idea was up to 4 virtual machines, each would have someone designated to make sure it was updated, along with use of the unattended upgrades for security patches.

As quoted I've done RAID 5 SSD, and RAID 5 traditional, 3 drives each.
That will give us fast storage and large storage (think downloads and foss4g archives).

I did redundant power to maximize uptime.

RAM is only 64 GB which is up to 16 for each of the Virtual Machines.

Please discuss and ask questions so we can possibly vote this week at the meeting.

Thanks,
Alex
