Hello everybody,
I've been asked to forward a request to the Northgrid sites to provide
the figures to fill in a Tier 2 hardware projection survey (I attached
it for completeness). This is a request from the PMB, and we're asked to
fill it in by the end of May.
The figures requested are the total CPU (in HS06) and Disk (in TB) at
your site in April this year, and the next 5 years (so 2016-2021). The
advice for coming to these numbers appears to be "Please fill in the
above based on what you have now and what you will have in the future
based on its estimated lifetime". I assume this means the figures asked
for are without any further refresh from GridPP.
I think the easiest thing to do would be for sites to send me their
figures once they've, err, figured them out and I'll throw them into a
spreadsheet.
Let me know if you want to bounce any queries or questions about this
back to Pete and the GMB. I'm sorry that I never ask you all to do
interesting things!
Have a good weekend all,
Matt
