4. TRIUMF Site Report for HEPiX, JLAB, October 9-13, 2006 – Corrie Kost Update since Hepix Spring 2006 Summary of TRIUMF WAN Connections Added 2 additional 1Gb wavelengths for ATLAS Canada Tier2 sites Expect TRIUMF-CERN 10Gb lightpath Nov 1/2006 Brings total to six (6) 1Gb wavelengths & one (1) 10Gb wavelength from TRIUMF to BCnet gigapop (regional area network) Multiple wavelengths are harder to debug! New CWDM: 1550157015901610nm Old CWDM:1500152015401560nm Problem with loss being wavelength sensitive (see OTDR plot below)

9. TRIUMF Site Report for HEPiX, JLAB, October 9-13, 2006 – Corrie Kost AoE - ATA over Ethernet Comments: - ideal for non-critical / low-cost storage - easy to configure (although web interface missing!) - handles Jumbo frames ( ifconfig ethx mtu 9000 up ) - R/W(XFS) ~ 60MB/sec (blockdev --setra 8192 /dev/etherd/eth0.0) (without above – 2.6.11 kernels have setra 256 and achieve ~ 5MB/sec !) http://computing.triumf.ca/documentation/coraid -ethX.Y where Y:slot 0-14 and X:chassis 0-4095 so…max 61,425 disks Current limit: 61425*750GB ~ 44PB for about $45million (before volume discounts & Moore’s law)
