[ILUG] Old NetApp kit available

[Ronan Mullally]

I've got the following sitting in a corner:

  NetApp F760 (taken out of service in November)
  NetApp F720 (used as spare parts for above)
  NetApp F760 motherboard

  2 x DS9 disk shelves with 7 x 36GB BCS disks
  1 x DS9 disk shelf.

I have a selection of 18 and 36GB ZCS disks around that can be used to
populate the latter disk shelf.

The filer heads include a couple of multi-mode gigabit ethernet cards.
They worked fine until they were retired 6 months ago.  I've not tested
them since, other than to scrub the disks a couple of months ago.

If anybody is interested in giving them a good home let me know.  They'd
make a good spares pool for anybody still running kit like this, or a good
testbed for anybody using filers.  If there's a commercial motive then we
can haggle, otherwise I'll settle for a pint (we can haggle over whether
it's Guinness or Midleton).

They'll need to be collected from Drogheda, or at a push I can deliver
them anywhere along the M1 into Dublin city centre.

Note that software and license keys are *not* included.  AFAIK they will
run linux however.

If anybody's looking to start a museum, I've also got a few Ascend
Pipeline routers (1u, 2Mbps WAN port) and an IBM Fibre Channel
Switch (2109 S16 - a rebadged Brocade IIRC).
