This is to serve as a list of services and responsibilites to be either migrated to ITS or ECoS IT, or decom'd.

This is going to be rather long, and many services listed here will have a long list of requirements.


  • AFS
    • Statistics:
      • 306 user entries in prdb
      • 98 groups in prdb
      • 669 volumes across 17 fileservers and 42 vice partitions
      • ~100TB total vice partition space dedicated to AFS, most in Solaris+ZFS with at least LZJB compression
      • ~30TB disk space used, after compression
    • Stored in afs:
      • Websites (31 vhosts, 8 physical servers), config files, log files, SSL certs, webalizer and associated scripts (not currently enabled, needs to go into cfengine)
      • rancid, cacti, ganglia-web
      • afs-pkg (/afs/bx/pkg and /afs/bx/software)
      • WPKG and Munki xml repos and software packages/installers
      • local YUM repositories, miscellaneous mirrors (ftp.bx.psu.edu/(software|mirrors)
      • Sun Grid Engine with AFS token integration (/afs/bx/service/sge/prod)
      • DNS zone files (config files are in cfengine)
      • cfengine master repo
      • cosign - html files, cgi's, mod_cosign.so
      • Private and public FTP via k5start'd vsftpd
      • Mailman archive files and list config files
      • Rt 3.8.8, built for 64-bit linux and Solaris 10 SPARC (via @sys symlinks)
      • Several 10's of TB of research data (/afs/bx/depot/data/)
      • 214 user home directories, 5.6TB total, average 26GB in size, biggest is 414GB
  • Mail
    • imap.bx.psu.edu: dovecot IMAP, with GSSAPI auth. Works with BX.PSU.EDU and dce.psu.edu
    • Squirrelmail and Horde/IMP for web based access
    • Mail routing, aliases, mailer config, and per-user mail forwarding stored in LDAP
    • Sendmail on Solaris 10 SPARC for incoming MX's, delivery via procmail+Maildir, sendmail process is run under k5start
    • Outgoing via password auth sendmail (smtp.bx.psu.edu)
    • MX and smtp.bx are filtered via milter over IPv6 to amavisd running on wash and zoe
    • Mailman (lists.psu.edu). Some of it is in AFS, so it gets k5start'd
