Site procurements

Tier 1

AGLT2

• Installed ~ 8000 HEPSPEC06 and ~400TB of disk space. An additional ~1800HS06 in worker nodes is purchased (a full Dell M100e blade chassis), but equipment will not be installed and operating until next quarter because of a lack of IP address space.
• An additional purchase at MSU of storage headnodes and disk shelves (perhaps 5-9 MD1000 w/2TB disks) is still under consideration.

MWT2

• Storage upgrade; MWT2 will likely procure ~700 TB of storage (Systems: (6) Dell R710 + MD1000 shelves with 2 TB drives)

NET2

SWT2

• SWT2_CPB - Purchased 200TB of usable disk space. Installation expected in early December
• UTA_SWT2 - Replacing 16TB DDN/Ibrix based storage with 39TB Xrootd system (3xR610 + 3 MD1000 shelves). Purchased 35 R410 nodes to replace aging equipment. Installation expected in early December.
