The Buy is being extended but I am unable to extend until Saturday due to Unison windows of submission times. For that reason, extending until Monday will not suffice and I can not extend until the end of the day due to staffing of the approval flow.
Question Submitted:
question is what are the current processors and disk drive sizes in the systems
Response Received:
The processors must be Intel Xeon Gen3 processors and the SSDs must be read-intensive or better for the capacity drives and mixed-use or better for the cache drives. The specific processor model, memory DIMM size and number and SSD capacities and node qty’s are up to the offeror but must meet the cluster requirements with enough extra storage & memory resources to be able to grow to the 100% level. For example, if the commitment level is 50%, the cluster resources provided must be 2X the stated requirement. If the commitment level is 60%, the cluster resources provided must be 1.67X the stated requirement. Additionally, the table below provides the minimum total cluster CPU resources required: Schedule GHz 31 1331.2 32 1331.2 33 873.6 34 1331.2 35 1331.2 36 2662.4 37 464 38 384 39 3827.2
