Over the last quarter, Glasgow has successfully upgraded its Cluster and all associated networking infrastructure to provide a robust and fully resilient service to the EGI. This includes new fibres, switches, and UPS within the cluster and across the university link to JANET. Additional supporting services such air conditioning, and power have been evaluated and, where required, will be replaced in the coming quarter. One major benefit of this work has been the release of older storage equipment for deployment into the Glasgow test Cluster which will allow for dual stack testing of IPv4 and IPv6 on DPM. The test-cluster will also be used to address other areas of interest to EGI. In the coming two quarters we plan to develop, test and deploy an automated Cluster restart system.

Over the last quarter, Glasgow has successfully upgraded its Cluster and all associated networking infrastructure to provide a robust and fully resilient service to the EGI. This includes new fibres, switches, and UPS within the cluster and across the university link to JANET. Additional supporting services such air conditioning, and power have been evaluated and, where required, will be replaced in the coming quarter. One major benefit of this work has been the release of older storage equipment for deployment into the Glasgow test Cluster which will allow for dual stack testing of IPv4 and IPv6 on DPM. The test-cluster will also be used to address other areas of interest to EGI. In the coming two quarters we plan to develop, test and deploy an automated Cluster restart system. Glasgow hope to present this work at the EGI technical Forum this autumn. They have started more active work to support the fledgling NA62 VO.
