What do we think they will be hosting? My masscheck server at ENA is
providing about 77% of the current masscheck corpus (we really need
other contributors) and it is an 8 core a 8 GB RAM VM. It really only
needs that much RAM and cores for the masscheck processing.
If they setup a masscheck'er, do we have any idea of their corpus
size? This will greatly determine the specs it needs. A dual-core, 4
GB might be OK if their corpus is small.
I am not familiar with what it takes to run the "trap." What is that
doing exactly? Are you hosting that on PCCC servers today?
Are they going to host an SA mirror too? I can give them bandwidth
estimates once we get the sa-updates rolling again.
I personally would prefer CentOS if we are going to be running it but
I would be OK with Ubuntu if we need to consider consistency with the
sa-vm1.apache.org box.
IPMI would be great so we wouldn't have to bother them if something is
hung and we need to power cycle it.
They are going to give us a physical box.
I'll ask for an 8core/8GB box and ask if it is ok to do trap data,
masscheck and run a mirror.
I do not know if the trap data is usable for masscheck. I think it's
automated and spam only.-
We've never had a power cycle issue and we have access to their normal
support to bounce if ever needed.
I'll ask for current CentOS.
Thanks,
