Hi, As some of you may know, OSUOSL is moving to a new datacenter.
All "exotic" hosts (POWER etc) will be moved, it should be transparent except for a bit of downtime. However, the three x86 machines (cfarm186, 187, 188) are getting quite old, so OSUOSL is looking at replacing them with newer hardware. We probably won't be able to keep as many machines. Here are two possible options to start the discussion: - option 1: one much bigger machine, bare metal. Which (single) OS makes the most sense? - option 2: several virtual machines. Which (multiple) OS would be useful? What do you think? Here, "big" means dual-socket Intel Xeon Platinum 8280, so 56 cores / 112 threads, with 768 GB RAM.
