ACEP at Work: VDOS Project Logbook – Weekly Update

Work this week has included finished configuration of the NAS storage device to a RAID10 configuration. The four 2TB drives are configured as two sets of mirrored drives (2, 2TBX2TB Pairs) formed into a single array. This configuration will allow for the loss of two drives without the loss of any data.  Due to a shipping error, continued installation of the system has been slightly delayed but with arrival of parts on Friday afternoon, work should resume as normal next week. For more information on this project contact Marc Mueller-Stoffels at mmuellerstoffels@alaska.edu.
