[CELS Sysadmins] Changes in the group
by Stacey, Craig J. 21 Nov '14

21 Nov '14

I am thrilled to announce promotions for Dan and Ti! I've been talking about the CELS systems team overhaul and plans in group meetings, and this is one of the crucial bits to making it happen. I'm going to make an announcement to the divisions when I get back from vacation, but I wanted to let everyone in the group know as soon as possible. Dan is now the Cloud Services Team lead. This is the team responsible for Magellan, and other new and upcoming experimental and research systems. Ti is now the HPC Team Lead for CELS. The HPC Team will handle production systems for the divisions, including clusters, storage, and rolling in production level systems and services that come out of the experimental efforts of the Cloud team or other groups. Nobody's reporting structure is changed right now. After I get back we'll have a group meeting to go over how things will look and then announce it out to the divisions. Congrats, Ti and Dan! -- Craig

I have a dental appointment tomorrow morning first thing. I expect to get in between 10 and 10:30. Starting Saturday, I'm pretty much incommunicado until December 9. In an emergency, my mobile number should work. I won't be checking work mail, but I'll still be keeping an eye on my personal mailbox (stace(a)stace.com) I'll be turning off my slack notifications, so don't count on that raising me. -- Craig _______________________________________________ This is the CELS Sysadmins mailing list.

Dan (probably), do you have the root password for ESG? If so, I think I'm going to need it. _______________________________________________ This is the CELS Sysadmins mailing list.

[CELS Sysadmins] PDU for rack AZ-49 (IGSB)
by Leggett, Torrance I. 19 Nov '14

19 Nov '14

The circuit serving one of the PDUs in rack AZ-49 is reading 37A off a 30A breaker with only about 15A of load from the rack. Rene wants to schedule to have an electrician look at it to determine the problem but that involves shutting the circuit down. There are electricians onsite for the cubicle install that he can have look at it today if we can shut things down. If we need to schedule this further out, that's fine as well, we just need to let Rene know when. The following machines are in that rack and served ONLY from the affected circuit and would go down: marne-1 marne-2 marne-3 marne-4 linksys mgmt switch top of rack The following are in the rack but have dual fed power: kasserine-5 area51 warehouse13 metro-2 Given the track record of failing over circuits, I'd say there's a plausible chance for even some or all of the dual fed machines to go out. So is today acceptable for short notice outage, or do we need to schedule out further. _______________________________________________ This is the CELS Sysadmins mailing list.
