</I>>>><i> I think we also need to add more disks on valstar asap,
</I>>>><i> so we can distribute i/o better on it.
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> We discussed with boklm some weeks ago to add:
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> 2 2TB disks in raid1 and move /distrib tree on them.
</I>>>><i> - this will move the heavy rsyncs on separate
</I>>>><i> i/o from svn & bin repo (current distrib tree
</I>>>><i> is 886G, of wich some will be needed when adding
</I>>>><i> more space to /svn and /binrepo)
</I>>>><i> - this will have to be done anyway when we fork mga3
</I>>>><i> tree at the latest, as we are running out of free
</I>>>><i> space on the lvm
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> 1 240GB SSD to stick /var/lib/schedbot and
</I>>>><i> /tmp on.
</I>>>><i> - theese are heavy on i/o for queue management,
</I>>>><i> and rpmlint / rpm unpacking ...
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> This way valstar will behave better even
</I>>>><i> on more busy days.
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> Comments ?
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Looks good for me too.
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> Pricing from France (to ship to Marseille):
</I>>><i> - 2 x 2TB WD RE4 64Mo (WD2003FYYS) = 2 x 195€ = 390€
</I>>><i> - 1 x 256GB SSD Crucial M4 (SSDSC2BW180A3L) = 199€
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Hm, that serial matches an Intel 520 180GB SSD.
</I>
Oops, I swear that I'm not drunk!
It's CT256M4SSD2
>><i> So, with shipment: 597€ (tax included)
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> I checked, there is available ports:
</I>>><i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-sysadm">root at valstar</A> ~]# dmidecode | grep -i sata
</I>>><i> Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT0
</I>>><i> Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT1
</I>>><i> Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT2
</I>>><i> Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT3
</I>>><i> Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT4
</I>>><i> Internal Reference Designator: SATA PORT5
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Yep, and boklm told that there was physical space for 8 disks on that
</I>><i> server, so that is ok too... I guess we need a 2.5 -> 3.5 adapter for
</I>><i> the ssd (unless it already comes with the extra mounting plate)
</I>
8 bays but careful, only 6 ports on the Motherboard:

For the bracket, it's included yes (but we won't use it).
>><i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-sysadm">root at valstar</A> ~]#
</I>>><i> For now, we just use 0 and 1.
</I>>><i> I just hope that [2-5] are not broken like on old ecosse.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Hm, was valstar also a pre-production hw ?
</I>
Yes, valstar is the same HW than jonund.
Both are pre-production Supermicro HW.
