Sean got the remaining Xserves configured to run independently from the master node of the cluster they belonged to and installed OS X 10.11 (El Capitan).

The new computer names are Ostrich (formerly node004) and Emu (formerly node002).

He enabled remote screen sharing and remote access for them.

Sean also installed a working hard drive on Roadrunner and got that back up and running.

I went through this morning and configured the computers with some other changes (some for my user account, others for the entire computer):

• Renamed computers to reflect just the corresponding bird name (hostnames had been labeled as “bird name’s Xserve”)

• Created srlab user accounts

• Changed srlab user accounts to Standard instead of Administrative

• Created steven user account

• Turned on Firewalls

• Granted remote login access to all users (instead of just Administrators)

• Installed Docker Toolbox

• Changed power settings to start automatically after power failure

• Added computer name to login screen via Terminal:

sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.ap\ple.loginwindow LoginwindowText "TEXT GOES HERE"

• Changed computer HostName via Terminal so that Terminal displays computer name:

sudo scutil --set HostName "TEXT GOES HERE"

• Installed Mac Homebrew (I don’t know if installation of Homebrew is “global” – i.e. installs for all users)

• Used Mac Homebrew to install wget

• Used Mac Homebrew to install tmux
