SAN migration this weekend

December 15, 2006

If you were wondering why there seemed to be a lack of activity: we are migrating to our new SAN this weekend.

To have a relatively stable environment during our migration planning we only converted two fileservers (600GB and 500GB respectively). Although they are the largest fileservers we have and with this conversion all fileservers have now been virtualized the impact on the hosts has been minimal.

Memory usage is now 54% and 50% and CPU usage is 16% and 11% per host. Delivery of our new hosts has been confirmed for next week and since the licenses have all been bought and activated already we can quickly add these servers and carry on with the migrations.
