Aslan

This system is the primary linux workstation in the office and needs to have the basic apps for a graphic workstation:

• KDE Plasma Desktop
• Mate terminal (Ubuntu app)
• VideoLAN media player (https://videolan.org/vlc/download-redhat.html)
• VMware Horizon Client (for SAIC VDI access)
• Visual Studio Code (vscode - https://code.visualstudio.com/download)
• Calibre library manager (download)
• HPCMP Kerberos Kit (https://centers.hpc.mil)
  • CAC software (CA CoolKey?)
• Kontena Lens (download latest)
• Thunderbird
• Slack
• Synergy (v1)
• NVIDIA drivers (default with kubuntu/nonfree)
• Zoom client
• Firefox
• rclone (for google & dropbox mounts)
• pdsh
• Oracle Java (the real thing) for the Dell Storage manager
• minio client (mc) for gitlab backup -- there is a copy in /work/bin if that will work for the platform.
• Dell Equalogic Group Manager (java webstart - requires iSCSInet interface below and Oracle Java)

Configurations:

• mount /work and /files filesystems
• configure extra network devices
  • StorageNet (10.1.0.8) - use the second ethernet interface
  • iSCSInet (10.2.0.200) - done via VLAN 15 on the StorageNet interface
• set up dropbox/google drive mounts (gdrives script in /work/bin)

Tasks/Applications (in addition to normal housekeeping):

• cron daily:
  • check-all (moved to pro6)
  • Backup GitLab
    • mount storage1:/backup/systems to /backup_systems
    • install the cert for the gitlab instance (since it is self-signed)
