Hardware/Server Information
You can find LOCKSS's current server specifications in the LOCKSS install document located here.
Basically, you have two options for setting up a LOCKSS server for ADPNet:
Option 1: Purchase Your Server From A Vendor
Here's what we recommend if you are purchasing a server from a vendor:
- An x86 Intel compatible CPU running at 1GHz or better
- A minimum of 1GB of memory (2GB of memory is recommended)
- A bootable CD or DVD drive
- A SATA disk controller (ideally with support for 6 SATA devices)
- Must support the CentOS v5.4 Linux operating system
- A chassis capable of holding at least 4 2-terabyte hard drives
Option 2: Roll Your Own Server
Recently, Auburn University built its own LOCKSS server as a replacement for an older box that had some hardware failures.
Below is the parts list for Auburn's roll-your-own-server build. Prices are current as of 8/1/11 and are given as a general reference point only; of course they can be expected to change over time and across vendors.
