[sepia] Retiring apama

Hi all, I'm guessing this question is mostly for Sage but maybe others have input. As you should be aware, we are quickly running out of space in the Sepia lab. I have room for the incoming Ceph Foundation hardware but anything beyond that is going to require purchasing new racks (which will take months) or retiring old equipment. Currently, I need to make room for the 6 systems purchased to replace the rex systems that were in the LA office. I'm wondering if there would be any objection to retiring the apama systems. Only one of them is actually doing anything useful -- it has some OSDs in the LRC. It only has 48GB RAM and the 7 OSDs currently running on it take up all of it. https://wiki.sepia.ceph.com/doku.php?id=hardware:apama "But David, why not just get rid of 3 mira instead?" The miras are in racks that only have 1Gb networking. I'd need to throw out 4 *and* buy a 10Gb switch. The apama are in the "infra" rack which already has a 10Gb switch. Thoughts? -- David Galloway Systems Administrator, RDU Ceph Engineering IRC: dgalloway
