-Things that should be achieved.
-====== Details ======
-===== Date =====
-Some weekend other than that of the 21st, or there will be no seth, as he is going home for the weekend.
-===== People =====
-....
-kev will deliver the server to the JCMB at some point on the weekend (so make sure it's a weekend
-that kev is free).
-====== Install New Server ======
-  *  Partition and install OS
-    * //Partition sizes?//
-    * //Filesystem?//  Increasing the amount of inodes (i.e., files) for partitions holding mail might be a good idea.  The current mail partition is nearly out of inodes.  Assuming we continue using ext3, turn on the dir_index option so that large directories (hopefully including maildirs) will be faster.
-  *  Configure
-    *  [[ldap]] :(  (Possibly not needed; the current fileserver doesn't bother)
-    *  [[nfs_service|NFS]]
-  *  Copy data off [[dalek]]
-    * //Shutdown everything first or let it break?// (ps, A)
-    * //Pull disk, or network copy?// (ps, A again)
-      * //Probably the best solution would be to use rsync -a to copy files with both systems running in parallel. Following that, a second rsync to deal with differences from when the first rsync started. Finally, take dalek's [[nfs_service|NFS mounts]] offline and rsync again. The new system should now be ready to put in place.//
-  *  Change [[nfs_service|NFS mounts]] on all the systems, or just call the new machine [[dalek]] as well.
-Are the [[nfs_service|NFS mounts]] by [[dns_service|IP, hostname, or cname]]? check me plzkthx
-  *  iirc if stuff is in by hostname, it's also in /etc/hosts. Some stuff might be using [[dns_service#Configuration|192.* addresses]] though. Sweet sweet [[vlan]] confusion/slacking. --Bung 15:58, 18 January 2006 (GMT)
-====== Move bigger disks to davros ======
-  *  blah
-  *  lol
-  *  etc
-====== Let kev have his wicked way with [[brigadier]] ======
-We can even get a [[xen]] page :)
-====== Book some rooms! ======
-This is rather important. If tardis doesn't get regular meetings/tutorials on the go,
-no new students will join the project. Everyone currently active in tardis is reaching
-their final years of university. Ex users and admins can help out by running tutorial
-sessions, providing rooms are booked.
-====== Moar things! ======
