We now have access to a complete snapshot copy of SqueakSource. I am in the process of retrieving the files to my personal PC (not yet complete, I'm still trying to get a clean copy of one large 15GB file), and I will now need a place to put them on squeak.org.
I need some help to proceed. We need a server with 20 to 30 GB of file space available for the SqueakSource files, and with memory and CPU resources similar to whatever we are currently doing for source.squeak.org.
Can someone help, either by giving me access to an existing server, or by letting me know what is available? I will need a user account (lewis) similar to my current account on build.squeak.org, and I will need sudo privilege to set up an account for squeaksource and to set up the runtime environment.
In addition it would be helpful if I could get enough access to the source.squeak.org server so that I can look at it and figure out how that server is configured. Even better would be if the source.squeak.org server has enough capacity (mainly disk space) to also host squeaksource, in which case we can put both of them on the same server.
I would like to do this as soon as possible (tomorrow perhaps?) so any assistance and pointers will be gratefully received.
I now (finally) have a complete copy of the SqueakSource files sitting on my hard drive here in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Here is what we have:
-rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 16341844652 2013-08-24 04:21 Squeaksource-projects-22-8-2013.tar -rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 5558656 2013-08-23 08:20 Squeak-3.9-8-SqueakSource.app.tar -rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 167474616 2013-08-23 08:19 squeaksource.image -rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 15721301 2013-08-23 08:18 squeaksource.changes -rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 718 2013-08-23 08:18 squeaksource.com -rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 1686 2013-08-23 08:17 Workspace.text -rw-r--r-- 1 lewis users 14542313 2013-08-23 08:17 SqueakV3.sources
After unpacking the files (these are compressed tars), the total disk usage is a bit over 16 GB:
lewis@linux-jh8m:~/squeak/SS/TransitionToSqueakDotOrg/WORK> du -s * 21564 Squeak-3.9-8-SqueakSource.app 15356 squeaksource.changes 4 squeaksource.com 163552 squeaksource.image 14204 SqueakV3.sources 16401280 ss 4 Workspace.text
So a server with 20GB working space is sufficient, and 30GB would provide comfortable headroom.
