Current Projects

This is the list we will work from in addition to service requests. Please update specific projects at their own page. You can see our ongoing projects here.

  • Proposal to update our task process: Sysadmin/Task_Process
  • Upgrade CentOS on Pollock and Bronte
  • Graceful shutdown during outage
  • Web logins
  • Reinstall OS's on Lovelace and Hamilton machines
    • Hamilton: installed, can ssh, so can do whatever else we need
    • Lovelace machine: still no Internet
  • shinken: web is back, need to check status
    • open up access to the other machines
  • layout node outside machine room - Eli interested
  • layout: make different node the head node?
  • passwords
  • email to users (automated)
  • check Lovelace DNS file - check what machines we have vs. what's in the DNS file?
  • check backup statuses of machines, see the wiki page on this - also backup.cs.e.e (indiana?)
  • Password auditing script
  • FIFO for requests rather than ad-hoc
  • Accounting for hours logged

From the summer, possible followup

  • 159.28.23.26 is a ghost machine - it responds to ping and purportedly exists, but we are unsure where it is or what it is. - ping -f - Eli looking into it in the context of al-salam
  • Power map additions and updates
  • nbgrader - setup continues
  • indiana config
  • Hadoop on Whedon - Vitalii and Adam (stuck on ?) - talk to Ajit
