Interested in Working with the NTG Lab?
-
It has been a month now... Any more info on this moving forward?
If not, what about using the existing NTG Labs for something like this?
-
We are waiting on a few key pieces of hardware to arrive. Once they do we will be moving everything to our Colo.
-
I would be interested in participating!
-
The big new gear is "in the mail." Three huge compute and storage nodes, dual 10GigE fiber switches.
-
Due to arrive a week from tomorrow.

Nice! Is this going to be done with Scale / VMware or are you going to try and cram as much stuff in the colo rack as possible?

Um... both?
Scale gear, going to do physical lab stuff first, then off to the colo with it once that testing is done.
-
By the way, we are not getting a normal Scale cluster. It is, instead, a preview of the upcoming new and more powerful Scale cluster.

Was looking through home lab topics. Curious if there'll be an update here after the crazy holidays have passed
-
Great idea! You'd get me to bite if/when that Solaris RISC system would get put in. Yeah, I couldn't relive my IRIX days, but RISC and UNIX come close enough.

Yes, very soon after they have passed. I've been in transit to Crete for most of the week which is exhausting. I am back online now and will be working with the lab to get some status.

We have "official" word that we are getting a lab sponsor for the datacenter. Just waiting on being able to announce the details and finding out when the system is moving and to which facility it will be going. So excited!!
-
I am very interested. This is exactly what I need.
-
I am also interested

Still pushing to get the datacentre hosting bit worked out.
-
With the lab nearly to California, the ability to start getting people access to it is getting closer. Getting the lab into the datacenter is the first and biggest step to making this available.
