UK Oracle Exadata - Maybe

[bob_dvb]

I know of an Exadata that's being decommissioned soon in the West London area.

It looks like it's an X4-2 Eighth rack,
2 'database' nodes of 2x E5-2697 v2, 256GB RAM, 40Gb IB networking, 10Gb Ethernet (optical)
3 'storage servers' with 36 cores, and 18 drives (unclear if they're 1.2TB 10k or 4TB 7,200), 4.8TB of smart flash (whatever Oracleness that is)

Sun/Oracle Infiniband networking at 40Gb/sec

IF I can get hold of it, would anyone be interested? It's unlikely to have any packing material, so collection only. Resisting the urge to get it for myself, I don't need 2.5kW of compute.

if you don't tell how much will you be selling it for, how are we going to know if we're interested or not?

I'd be interested in "Infiniband networking at 40Gb/sec" but it depends at what price.

mellanox sx6036 will do 40Gbe and/or 56GB IB for significantly less than this cluster

The rack looks cool, I have one of those.

The way it’s worded is it being scrapped or actually sold? If the former, I may grab something. If the latter…
