Greetings!
I bring you an updated - and shortened - version of the site
storage recommendations document. While it could do with a rewrite
or some more editing, I think it will be good to send it around
now anyway, if for no other reason than to close the action.
Should be available at URL (temporarily!)
http://storage.esc.rl.ac.uk/storage-targets.txt
We need to look at how much extra storage capacity sites need to
provide and how to grid-enable it.
I also want to keep this document relatively short, so I have
cut out some of the text I had received, while of course making
sure that the point was covered anyway. I would still like to
shorten it.
For example, one interesting thing would be if someone would volunteer
to sift through the output of the recent hepix (ideally someone
who attended) and find out if there are useful recommendations
for disk purchasing and operations.
Cheers,
--jens
