- Repair LDAP on Gourd (probably caused by net connection).
- Replace failed drive in Gourd - 250gb sata
- Documentation for networking - we have no idea which config files are actually doing anything.
- Take a look at spamassassin - Improve Performance of this if possible.
- Test unknown equipment:
- Power supplies - UPS - Power Strips - Fans - Network cables
- Look into upgrades/patches for all our systems.
- Look into monitorring that is already installed: RAIDs etc.
- Look into Red Hat Enterprise Level 5, the latest version. Update Tomato to RHEL5 and check all services einstein currently provides. Then switch einstein <-> tomato, and then upgrade what was originally einstein. Look into making an einstein, tomato failsafe setup.
