Awesome! Also glad to hear your rate of success can be quantified as a 700% improvement. Amazing! :) Best, Enis On Wed, Mar 28, 2012 at 2:57 PM, Greg Edwards wrote: > Enis, > Thanks, your instructions below worked ok and I have reduced my 700GB to 1 > GB. > No doubt a pile of genome tools don't

Enis, Thanks, your instructions below worked ok and I have reduced my 700GB to 1 GB. No doubt a pile of genome tools don't work now but I don't need them. I see this is described in the Wiki as well, but it was more concise below, thanks. cp -r was fine for copying the remnants of /mnt/galaxyIndice

Just one extra thought on this-- If you leave your instance up all the time it may be worth looking into having a reserved micro instance up as the front end (cheap, or free, with your intro tier) with SGE submission disabled. Then, enable autoscaling(max 1) of m1.large/xlarge instances. -Dann

[galaxy-dev] Reducing costs in Cloud Galaxy

2012-03-18 Thread Greg Edwards
Hi, I've got an implementation of some proteomics tools going well in Galaxy on AWS EC2 under Cloudman. Thanks for the help along the way. I need to drive the costs down a bit. I'm using an m1.large AMI and it's costing about $180 - $200 / month. This is about 55% storage and 45% instance costs.
