OT: Network Porn, our server room... Options

[CptTripps]

After seeing some responses to other posts her, I gather there are more than a few 'tech types' lurking around here...thought I'd share some pics of our Data-Center.

Main control center...

All run Linux/BSD. We don't have a single Win box anywhere in our datacenters. The security holes, and constant licensing BS...no thanks. (Does anyone have a CLEAR understanding of the Terminal Services licensing???)

This is our primary DC, we have a secondary with another 80-90 old linux servers. All old HP stuff from a buy-out we did. We used these 35 Suns, to replace 250 HP (Compaq) Win2K servers. Moved half to our secondary sight, and sold the rest on eBay.

I'll show you all the pics you want. There is NO WAY anyone is getting through our firewalls....especially by looking at pictures.

I'll post pics of the battery room next time I'm up there...300 wet-cell batteries. Can light the place at full-load for 4 days without doing to Diesel! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Funny, I can plan a multi-million dollar datacenter, build it, load it, and config every machine there...yet I'm scared to drop the engine on my 914 by myself. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)
