+Subject: 128 more PC nodes on their way; feedback
+Date: Mon, 06 Aug 2001 03:12:46 MDT
+
+Hi folks,
+We are adding 128 more PCs to expand our hardware resources; their
+configuration is appended.  They have started showing up and will be
+installed over the next few weeks, giving 168 PCs total.
+
+Many or all of the 160 Sharks will be down while this is happening,
+because we have to move them out of the way.  In parallel (!) our
+machine room is being expanded; we expect almost no emulab.net
+downtime due to that.
+
+We've completed a re-engineering of much of the guts of the emulab
+software, enabling many features and flexibility.  In later messages
+or Web page updates we'll announce new software features as they are
+developed, other news, and polls.
+
+Please send any feedback and suggestions to testbed@flux.cs.utah.edu
+or myself, eg on the user interface, docs, software, hardware, desired
+features or hardware, support, whatever.  It is only through
+(typically critical) feedback, especially on the UI and docs, that we
+learn what works and what doesn't.
+
+-------------------
+128 new nodes:
+        850Mhz P3
+        512M ECC memory
+        old reliable BX chipset (like the existing nodes, 100 Mhz bus)
+        40G 7200rpm IDE disk (IBM Deskstar 60gxp)
+        5 Intel Pro/100+ network interfaces
+                2 on board
+                1 on a single Intel card
+                2 on a dual Intel card (with a PCI bridge)
+        No video at all
+        serial console
+
+These are Intel ISP1100s,
+http://www.intel.com/network/products/isp1100.htm, but they come only
+with motherboard, so the URL doesn't tell you everything.
+
+Connecting all these will be 2.7 miles of cable in 923 segments.  I'm
+told that we will then total 4.7 miles of cable in 450 cu ft.  Sounds
+like a big wire wrap.
