Plan

See above work descriptions for detailed steps.

Overview plan:

Pull an old Compute Node (CN) and convert to a new CentOS Head Node ("new HN")
Add new CNs to new HN
Add one old CN's to new HN
After testing, shift production to new HN.
Add the rest of the old CN's to new HN
Convert old HN to CN and add it to new HN
Later; see P41: Migrate to ChemIT Community Head Node
- Add all CN's to ChemIT Community HN
- Convert Collum HN to CN and add to ChemIT Community HN

And possible ways to address them.

Gaussian needs to be recompiled (under new OS).

If so, add A LOT of time and uncertainty. Spools up a whole new, large project, and crack open the PGI compiler.

WebMO needs to be upgraded from 2010 version. Perhaps a good idea to do anyway, if "good reasons" are identified.

If so, $1,000. And time/ process to order and get software, learn of differences, and apply it.

Node 2 turns out to be a dud (fails or is unstable).
