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...

I'm the Senior Engineer (of 3) in charge of the management of approximately 250 servers in 4 states. They are various hardware and OS flavors. Almost all Windows though. The newest toy is the IBM Blade Center with 7 Dual Xeon blades that I've set up to boot off of our 3TB EMC Clarion SAN. The Blade Center has multiple Fiber paths to multiple fiber switches in the fabric the SAN is on.

I've also got a Quad Processor IBM X440 with 16GB of RAM. It is running VMWare GSX Server and hosting about a dozen virtual servers.

We are currently installing an IBM Robotic Tape Library with 4 drives and room for 75 tapes. (Took shipment yesterday!)

I've got a 15 server Citrix Farm running published apps and published desktops. I built a 120 server Citrix farm while I was contracting. That was fun.

I'll get you guys some pics of the server room. I think you'll like it. Nice Racks of WIndows Servers, Raised flooring. Multiple Air Handlers, IBM Mainframe, EMC Symetrix Storage, EMC SAN, Racks of Cisco Core Switches and Routers, It's definitely geek porn!
