On a list of things to do

I need to stop by Microcenter for a SATA power cable, and maybe a power brick for a USB external laptop drive.

The first item will let me get the 1TB drive in the ESXi server up and running. Plan is to:

  • move the Ubuntu desktop image from the 250GB drive to the 1TB
  • Move the VIMA appliance image from the 250GB drive to the 1TB
  • Install OpenFiler using virtual disks on both of those drives, and then create a backup volume that is rsynced to and then can be streamed to tape/DVD from there.
  • Create iSCSI volumes that can be mounted by each of the systems that support it (PowerBooks and the Ultra5) and use that for filesystem space.
