2 high-performance computers, running Windows server.

Selection and pricing

Pricing considerations.

Support and Risk management considerations

Remember these are two distinct servers, both running Windows server.

OS maintenance windows

Proposed Download automatically. Install manually (by ChemIT or researcher?)

  • If ChemIT, determine monthly schedule and stick to it so predictable. If ~4hour window of interruption, should be fine if date/ time known well in advance. For both systems.

Security

Network configured to prevent off-campus access, unless using VPN (10-space).

No web, email, etc. access from the systems. (Not a "play" station!)

Systems still able to get updates via the network.

Leave Symantec off, for increased performance.

Robustness

2 drives, mirrored, in each server. Via hard ware RAID (need? want?)

File versioning, local. Would need another drive (need? want?)

  • Can get via saves to off-site file share, such as Petersen's SFS file share.
    • Size and quantity of data expected?

Back ups. (need? want?)

  • No labels
