Support Condo storage order requests #547

Open matthew-li opened 1 year ago

Users should be able to initiate requests to purchase Condo storage from the portal and receive status updates about their purchased storage.

Start to draft condo storage procurement, which will take sometime to finalize.

  1. PI contacts BRC to express interest in buying in storage. The communications typically start outside the portal, including providing quota, nail down storage size.
  2. Once the PI makes decision, PIs will submit condo purchase request on the portal including what/size to buy, Charstring (BRC) or PID (LBL). I think designated system admins get notified. ( e.g. Gary, Ken, John, Wei....)
  3. Procurement: typically extra storage is also available for purchase.
  4. Installation process, including the status of storage provision.
  5. Ready for usage
