Web Server

You are highly encouraged to avoid running anything that's not directly related to your CSC webspace on our web server. We have plenty of general-use machines; please use those instead. You can even edit web pages from any other machine--usually the only reason you'd *need* to be on caffeine is for database access.

caffeine

Caffeine is the Computer Science Club's web server. It serves websites, databases for websites, and a large amount of other services.

Specs

  • currently a virtual machine hosted on ginkgo
    • 12 vCPUs
    • 32GB of RAM

Services

General-Use Servers

These machines can be used for (nearly) anything you like (though be polite and remember that these are shared machines). Recall that when you signed the Machine Usage Agreement, you promised not to use these machines to generate profit (so no bitcoin mining).

Most people use either taurine and clones or (high-fructose-)corn-syrup. hfcs is probably our beefiest machine at the moment, if you are wanting to do some heavy computation. Again, if you have a long-running computationally intensive job, it's good to nice[1] your process, and possibly let syscom know too.

corn-syrup

PowerEdge 2950

Specs

  • 2 × Intel Xeon E5405 (2.00 GHz, 4 cores each)
  • 32 GB RAM
  • eth0 ("Gb0") mac addr 00:24:e8:52:41:27
  • eth1 ("Gb1") mac addr 00:24:e8:52:41:29
  • IPMI mac addr 00:24:e8:52:41:2b
  • 3 × Western-Digital 160GB SATA hard drive (445 GB software RAID0 array)

Notes

  • Use eth0/Gb0 for the mathstudentorgsnet connection
  • has ipmi on corn-syrup-impi.csclub.uwaterloo.ca.

Services

  • Hosts 1 TB /scratch and exports via NFS (sec=krb5)

high-fructose-corn-syrup

High-fructose-corn-syrup (or hfcs) is our more powerful version of corn-syrup. It's been in CSC service since April 2012.

Specs

  • 4x AMD Opteron 6272 (2.4 GHz, 16 cores each)
  • 192 GB RAM
  • Supermicro H8QGi+-F Motherboard Quad 1944-pin Socket (Manual)
  • 500 GB Seagate Barracuda
  • Supermicro Case Rackmount CSE-748TQ-R1400B 4U (Manual)

taurine

Specs

  • 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
  • 8GB RAM
  • 136 GB LVM volume group

Services

  • Virtual machines
  • BitlBee IRC instant messaging gateway (localhost only)
  • ident server to maintain high connection cap to freenode
  • Runs ssh on ports 21,22,53,80,81,443,8000,8080 for user's convenience.

sucrose

sucrose is a taurine clone donated by CSCF.

Specs

potassium-citrate

Potassium-citrate is a dual-processor Alpha machine. It is on extended loan from pbarfuss.

It is temporarily decommissioned pending the reinstallation of a supported operating system (such as OpenBSD).

Specs

  • Alphaserver CS20 (2 833MHz EV68al CPUs)
  • 512MB RAM
  • 36 GB Seagate SCSI hard drive

potassium-nitrate

It is a Sun Fire E2900 from a decommissioned MFCF compute cluster, on loan for an extended period. It has a SPARC architecture and runs OpenBSD, unlike many of our other systems which are x86/x86-64 and Linux/Debian.

It is available for general use. Due to an "interesting" SSH server configuration, Kerberos authentication is required to access this machine. This means that from a CSC machine, run 'kinit -p' to obtain credentials before SSH'ing in. From a non-CSC machine, follow the instructions on running Kerberos locally.

The name is from saltpetre, because sparks.

Specs

  • 24 CPUs
  • 90GB main memory
  • 400GB scratch disk local storage in /scratch-potassium-nitrate

There is a setup guide available for this machine.

See also Sun 2900.

Office Terminals

It's possible to SSH into these machines, but we discourage you from trying to use these machines when you're not sitting in front of them. They are bounced at least every time our login manager, lightdm, throws a tantrum (which is several times a day). These are for use inside our physical office.

  • 2x8GB RAM
  • 1x 64GB SanDisk SDSSDP064G SSD

  • 4 GB RAM
  • nVidia GeForce 8600 GTS
  • Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L Motherboard
  • 1x 64GB SanDisk SDSSDP064G SSD

Speakers

Strombola used to have integrated 5.1 channel sound before we got new speakers and moved audio stuff to nullsleep.

Syscom Only

The following systems may only be accessible to members of the Systems Committee for a variety of reasons; the most common of which being that some of these machines host Kerberos authentication services for the CSC.

aspartame

aspartame is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently is our primary file server, serving as the gateway interface to space on phlogiston. It also used to host the auth1 container, which has been temporarily moved to dextrose. The lxc files are still present and should not be started up, or else the two copies of auth1 will collide.

Specs

  • 2 AMD Opteron 2218 CPUs
  • 10GB RAM

Notes

  • It currently cannot route the 10.0.0.0/8 block to a misconfiguration on the NetApp. This should be fixed at some point.

dextrose

dextrose is a taurine clone donated by CSCF. It currently hosts the mathNEWS server, auth1, mail, rt and munin.

Specs

  • 2 72GB drives in RAID1 (LVM dextrose)
  • 2 1TB drives in RAID1 (LVM dextrose2)

auth1

Container on dextrose.

Services

coffee

Virtual machine running on ginkgo.

Services

cobalamin

Dell PowerEdge 2950 donated to us by FEDS. Located in the Science machine room on the first floor of Physics. Will act as a backup server for many things.

Specs

Services

Notes

  • The network card requires non-free drivers. Be sure to use an installation disc with non-free.
  • We have separate IP ranges for cobalamin and its containers because the machine is located in a different building. They are:
    • VLAN ID 506 (csc-data1): 129.97.18.16/29; gateway 129.97.18.17; mask 255.255.255.240
    • VLAN ID 504 (csc-ipmi): 172.19.5.24/29; gateway 172.19.5.25; mask 255.255.255.248
  • For some reason, the keyboard is shit. Try to avoid having to use it. It's doable, but painful. IPMI works now, and then we don't need to bug about physical access so it's better anyway.

auth2

Container on cobalamin.

Services

MAC Address: c2:c0:00:00:00:a2
