Determine Where Fedora Binaries Are Stored

[carrickr]

All items are stored in Fedora, determine where Fedora writes out these binaries and if it is backed up properly.

It looks (on nufiarepo-p) that Fedora data is stored in /data/fcrepo with the binaries configured to go to: /data/fcrepo/fcrepo.binary.directory

I don't think I see an Isilon mount on nufiarepo. @Toputnal and @d-venckus - are we not storing the original files on Isilon?

If these aren't being stored in isilon, can you investigate and write issues for the transfer @Toputnal and @d-venckus. Also, please verify our current backup schedule, etc.

[d-venckus]

As Karen noted above, all Fedora data is currently stored under /data/fcrepo ($fcrepo_home), which is NOT an Isilon storage location, but rather, local disk. I recall that when we first set up I/R that I asked Steve about why we weren't mounting /data on Isilon; he replied that local storage was sufficient for then (the initial demo and early soft-release), and that we could move it at a later date if warranted. Perhaps that time has arrived?

The daily VEEAM VMWAre daily backup regimen does indeed include the local /data/fcrepo filesystem. However, this has only a 28-day restore window, and is very likely NOT what we want long term as a backup solution. So I'd suggest that when we upgrade Fedora for I/R, that we also rsync local storage to a new Isilon share and mount that as /data evermore. Or is that what you're also trying to say, David, in your not above, with the mention of "transfer". Not quite clear.

If folks agree to creating an Isilon share for Data, I'll create a ticket and add that to the task for the Fedora update.

@d-venckus can you open up an issue to move /data into Isilon storage and document the process. This is a critical priority. Work witth @davidschober on this.
