As
previously announced, we are in process of migrating our central file storage
system to a new cluster of Network Appliance hardware.
Beginning February 15 (President’s Day), we will be migrating project and cluster
storage spaces to the new hardware. Initial synchronizations will be done over the
next two weeks, so that the final sync and cutover time will be reduced for the larger project spaces.
We are initially proposing the following schedule:
Time Project New mount
Feb 15 6:00-6:30pm /cproj/nlp proj40.eecs:/nlp
Feb 15 6:15-7:00pm /proj/ptolemy proj40.eecs:/ptolemy
Feb 15 6:45-7:30pm /proj/parlab proj40.eecs:/parlab
Feb 15 6:45-7:30pm /proj/radlab proj30.eecs:/proj30/radlab
Feb 15 7:15-8:00pm /proj/efros proj10.eecs:/efros
Feb 15 9:00pm-7:00am /cproj/(others) proj40.eecs:/cproj/(sharename)
Feb 16 8pm-7am /proj/[a-c]* proj10.eecs:/proj10/(sharename)
Feb 17 8pm-7am /proj/[d-q]* proj20.eecs:/proj20/(sharename)
Feb 18 8pm-7am /proj/[r-z]* proj30.eecs:/proj30/(sharename)
Feb 19 8pm-7am Followup/postponed and missed migrations
If migration of your project space needs to be postponed or scheduled for
a specific time, please
let us know at help@eecs. We know that downtime for
some project spaces needs to be minimized, and
we’ll do our best to coordinate another time with you.
As with the home directories, NFS exports will change. Automount maps will be updated at the designated migration start time. Re-mounts of project spaces will be necessary.
CIFS mounts should use the new node hostnames for best performance, with the
usual sharename, e.g. \\\\proj20.eecs\macsww
