<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I would really like to build out a definitive
backup solution for our servers. Right now it's just a few scripts
that back up the earthquake dir(s), apache configs, etc, that copies to
the ehpnas. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">1. I don't like the NAS isn't ssh'able,
we have to rely on standard rsyncs, plus aren't able to build a share due
to PSS.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">2. It would take a good while to restore
from backup due to drive and network limitation of restoring a large (80G+)

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I'm not sure of the specs for the old
ENS1 server, but if possible, I'd still like to use one of our new servers

It's an IBM and is warrantied.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> 2.
It's easy to get support and mainte.nance.</font>

It's easy to get parts for.</font>

I'm familiar with the hardware and know that I can easily manage and maintain.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> 5.
It would be nice to have two monitoring servers that act as failover for
each other.</font>

<br><font size=3>Please let me know if you are aware of any need for web
infrastructure equipment.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>We've talked about ENS upgrades, separating CPU-heavy
web applications from the rest of the web server, and separating the database
server from the webserver, but we haven't settled on any definitive plans
for any of these.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3>Should we have a discussion about any of these again?</font>

<br>
Just in case ANSS get some of the Stimulus money, Bill Leith has asked
me<br>
to do an list of equipment we might need in the next year.<br>
<br>
What would be the need for the Web infrastructure?<br>
<br>
Thanks, Barbara<br>
