Past email threads, pre-meeting

Skeeve is not only running 32 bit but also an old version of Linux, RedHat Enterprise 3. One idea to consider is installing a VM on Eldor with this version of Linux. Use NAT networking to secure the VM. There is also a question of the compiler. Is the skeeve code compiled with the old PGI compiler? If so, we need to figure out if this is a requirement and how to address it.

Skeeve should simply be scrapped. We have to port 32-bit code to 64-bit platforms. The only issue is to find who will be in charge. May be Dave Schneider could give us advice. I am not sure whether the large v4 CAC cluster is 32-bit or 64 bit. If CAC has anything 32-bit, these can be used to run 32-bit code before it is recompiled for 64-bit platforms.

Oliver, 11/20/12:

Migrating function of Skeeve to Eldore (porting code) and decommissioning Skeeve.  (As wth Eldore, CAC's services may be a solution)
