They need to get some faster nics in those supercomputers! This ain't 2010!
That's for off-net file transfer. Their interconnects are mostly 200 gigabit Infiniband. They donated a lot of their 100 gigabit OPA interconnect hardware to LSSM not long ago. PSC is not living in the past, man. And as far as "support", Cisco, like IBM, will support *anything* regardless of it's EOL status if there's cash involved. I replaced and decommissioned a Catalyst 5000 (not 5500, 5000, circa 1994!) about two years ago that was still under active Cisco support with a 3hr-response contract. -Dave -- Dave McGuire, AK4HZ New Kensington, PA
