QUOTE(ginter @ Feb 18 2003, 07:33 PM) That's nasty Chris. I gotta lift a floor tile to see that kinda mess. My wife sent me that pic; no clue where it came from. It does look a little familiar though. The office suite we're in (actually more like the whole 1st floor of our bldg) used to be a call center for an insurance company or something, back in the early 80's. They had hundreds of mainframe dumb terminals wired up via thick coax all over the friggen place. Huge patch panels and bundles of the crap everywhere -- in the floors, walls, and ceilings. We cut/pulled some of it out, but it's essentially a permanent part of the building now. Fortunately my lashup is very simple...a mere 4 servers, a dozen or so desktops & notebooks, and 4 printers. Switched 100BaseT/Cat5 and a single external T1. Piece O' Cake. Usually. |

Yeah. This is what I used to build out: Later we actually used the cable management trays as we began to ad switches with more ports.
Sorry I could'nt help out over the weekend Andy. My attitude went down the drain with some shit that happened on Thursday afternoon right before the club site went down. Then to have the wife leave for 5 weeks Sunday morning at 7am pretty much iced my weekend of bad attitude. When it rains is pours. I was better off staying away from everybody and staying off the phone. We do need to chat about how this server is configured. It should be raid 5 with striping. That one hard drive should have never brought this site down. We should also chat about your COLO space. I would be more than happy to handle all of your hardware issues (reboots/whatever) if we could move the boxes to a facility around the corner from me (pro-class 24/7 facility) Something to think about. I felt like my hands where tied because I could'nt jump on the problem Thursday evening. I know the SSI server and my mail server need to be in a COLO space... we could share the costs. B |

When it rains it pours... man don't get me started!
Yesterday started out very succesfull. I had a meeting with the Dutch Porsche importer about our 914 club. They've treated us like shit for years, so I've been pulling some strings with the Porsche AG and at the end of the meeting, the dutch importer was pretty much eating out of my hand: "would you like to testdrive the new Cayenne for a day? Would you like a new Boxster so you can write a comparison artlicle in your clubmagazine?" This meeting was to be my "last stand" for our club, before stepping down as a boardmember, so I felt pretty good about my accomplishments after the meeting I was typing an e-mail to report the rest of the board about this, then e-mails from boardmembers start pooring in... As usual they were bitching and moaning about nothing and trying to shovel their shit into my shoes So, I said GO FUCK YOUR SELVES (IMG:style_emoticons/default/finger.gif) I'll get the fuckers back good... Cheers, Jeroen (thanks for lettin' me vent) |

That one hard drive should have never brought this site down. correct, what happend was that when the harddrive died it sent garbage on the SCSI bus, that made the controller freeze up on initialization. that's why it didn't get anywhere. i'm running raid 5, all drives are mirrored. as soon as i got the drive out the controller came back up ...
