Various software and computer developments are planned. Below I list
the most relevant things.
- Spam: A review will be made of the Anti-spam system and
possible enhancements will be considered.
- Scratch disk file system: Typically the users work with
very large data files and it will be checked if the XFS file-system can
improve the performance of the system when working with such files.
- Common services computer: A new system will be set-up for
the common service (home directories, mail folders, etc).
- Computer rack: Separate fuses should be installed for the
computers in the rack in the service building to avoid the failure of
one taking out the whole system.
- User account backup system: A proper backup system for the
staff user accounts should be defined and implemented.
