Blade servers will increase ChemIT's efficiency and effectiveness in running servers, including compute clusters. |
For a blade server, we'll need 1-2 of them. Estimate (5/13) is for $1K at the worst.
Per conversation between Oliver and Michael Hint, 5/14/13 (following power outage blip).
1) Every ChemIT server has an explicit purpose and a replacement budget proportional to need and import.
2) Every ChemIT server is on real hardware, not 755's or 760's.
3) Every ChemIT server has procedures with enough ChemIT staff having knowledge and authoritity to manage emergencies while primary ChemIT person is out.
