SunSITE Alberta runs on an Enterprise 450
server with 4 x 300MHz UltraSPARC-II CPU's, 3GB of RAM,
a 7GB 8mm tape drive, a 20GB DDS-4 tape drive, and 96GB of disk spread between the internal bays
and two MultiPacks on 5 controllers.
This disk space contains project space, web content, CVS repositories, part of the
ftp space, and the AFS cache striped over 2 x 9GB disks.
We also have an Enterprise 250
with 2 x 300MHz UltraSPARC-II CPU's, 1GB RAM, and a MultiPack
with 54GB of disk. The E250 is temporarily acting as a database server.
Our AFS server is a Netra T1 AC 200 with a 500MHz UltraSPARC-IIe CPU and 512MB RAM. It has
a dual channel differential SCSI adapter connected to a 436GB D1000 JBOD disk array. This
disk holds our mirror space and most of the projects being worked on at this time.
As usual, it isn't big enough.
The servers
are connected to the University of Alberta's campus backbone via 100Mb/s fast ethernet,
and are connected to a private backdoor network via 100Mb/s fast ethernet to remove the
AFS traffic from the main interface.
The E450 server and 36GB of disk was a donation from Sun Microsystems of Canada Inc., and the E250
and additional equipment was purchased by the participating groups at the University of Alberta.
