So netmon1001 has the following:

• Dual Intel Xeon E5640
• 64 GB Memory
• 12 disk spindles with hw raid
  • this was simply due to the spare being allocated being an old db system. The disk/storage capacity is well below what the old spare has:

Filesystem             Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1               37G   20G   16G  56% /
udev                    32G  4.0K   32G   1% /dev
tmpfs                  6.3G  608K  6.3G   1% /run
none                   5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
none                    32G     0   32G   0% /run/shm
/dev/mapper/tank-data  1.4T   20G  1.4T   2% /srv

So the spare I want to allocate is dual 1TB SATA, which would be software raid1. The in use space on all the file systems is less than 50GB, so it should be fine.

Proposed spare allocation:
wmf4747 - hw warranty expires on 2019-03-24 - Dual Intel Xeon E5-2640 v3 2.8GHz/8Core - 64GB RAM - Dual 1TB SATA - purchased on T130738

I'm assigning this to @mark for his allocation approval. Once granted, please assign back to me for the initial implementation steps/allocation.

Thanks!

We don't have any spare systems with SSDs, so we would have to order the machine specifically to house them.

Since it seems this spare won't do, I'll go ahead and create a procurement task for quoting out a new system.

Lead time for the replacement is not until June, so an in place upgrade of netmon1001 will be required. Once the system arrives, its setup will be tracked on T159756.
