===== Purpose =====

//remus// functions as the main storage provider for //romulus// and provides a 5.9 TiB array of 12 high IOPS Seagate Cheetah HDDs. Is is connected via Gigabit Ethernet and can this transfer up to 100 MiB per second. For seamless integration into the //romulus// operating system, the storage is connected via an iSCSI initiator ''iqn.2014-2.de.uni-erlangen.oice.n16000pro:iscsi.remus.raid0'' in instant allocation mode.

===== Administration =====

//remus// runs ThecusOS, which provides a web interface on port 80. For security reasons, connections are **only** allowed from //romulus//, which can be easily implemented by an encrypted SSH tunnel. The web interface allows for creation of new and management of existing RAID arrays and iSCSI targets.
