As you might have noticed CFD Online has been off-line a few times over the last two weeks. We have suffered several hard-disk failures in our redundant RAID5 disk array. We replaced the broken disks two times, but when the problems occured a third time on the new disks we gave up and instead ordered a brand new server.
CFD Online is now running on this new server. Hopefully the problems will now be history. The disk crashes have caused some data-loss. We apologize about this and you are very welcome to resubmit data that is missing. The new server is a bit faster than our old server. Hopefully this will improve response times for those of you who have very fast network connections. If you are interested in what server we have now, CFD Online is now hosted on a dedicated: HP ProLiant DL380G4 2 x Intel Xeon 3.6 GHz CPUs with 2MB cache and 64-bit capabilities 4 GB (4 x 1024 MB) of 2-way PC2-3200R 400MHz DDR2 RAM memory Ultra320 Smart Array 6i RAID Controller Hot Plug Fully Redundant Fans Hot Plug Redundant Power Supplies Four 73GB 15krpm U320 SCSI disks in a RAID5 array with an online spare disk Two 300GB 10krpm U320 SCSI disks mirrored for backups The server is located in a datacenter in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. Our webhost, who has done a tremendous job to help us over the last weeks, is www.servmatix.com |
