It depends on what you mean by data currently on boxen. Do you mean things
under /home? If so then that will still be accessible on
geom.math.washington.edu and mod.math.washington.edu for the time being, as
it actually a network filesystem being exported from another machine.

My plan is to mount it as read only for a bit on the new machines, but
after a period of time (probably a couple of months) the storage machine of
the current/old sage cluster will be repurposed as a backup machine, at
which point I'll make a final snapshot of the /home directory on an
external usb drive.


Anything lying on the root and scratch filesystems on boxen will be wiped.
