Description Alec Warner (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2022-03-15 01:20:52 UTC 
Our existing VM hosts are starting to fail and to provide continuity for VM services, we decided to purchase 4 SSDs, shipped immediately to the OSL so we cna rebuild the RAID arrays.

This purchase was an emergency one, as without action it was likely that we would have 4-6 hosts fail and lose significant data, causing problems for operating Gentoo.

We spend about 2 hours shopping online and eventually ordered 4 SSDs.

Council, Trustees:
Could you please vote to retroactively approve this emergency expenditure & reimbursement, as previously mentioned on IRC.

Using antarus's credit card directly was not the ideal option, but the bank triggered a potential fraud issue which would have significantly delayed the transaction.
