Raj, I agree with the points Alex made. It would be much easier to start small and then work your way up. I recently setup galaxy for our HPC cluster for the entire school of medicine. Its only a few ~month into our setup but we are currently using ~300GB of storage. This is part of our larger cluster storage pool of 600TB. We use the gluster filesystem across 6 storage nodes. We are trying fhgfs and other file systems as well (lustre, ceph, etc). If you have any other questions, feel free to ask. -Adam -- Adam Brenner Computer Science, Undergraduate Student Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences Research Computing Support Office of Information Technology http://www.oit.uci.edu/rcs/ University of California, Irvine www.ics.uci.edu/~aebrenne/ aebrenne@uci.edu On Wed, May 29, 2013 at 10:34 PM, Raj Ayyampalayam <raj76@uga.edu> wrote:
Hello,
I am trying to come up with a number for our local galaxy storage requirements when we go live (This is an installation for research at our university).
I checked out the survey that was done a while back for the GalaxyAdmins. It seems that the bigger installations have allocated about 200TB for their installation.
It would be of great help to me if I can get some feedback on storage used by local galaxy installations. If possible please use the following format:
Total capacity: Used capacity: Storage Technology: Comments:
Thank you all very much. -Raj
