    I work at another clustered file company, Qumulo who also makes these huge systems on Supermicro systems. We're actually kinda competitors with Weka. Can confirm that drive fault protection process they talked about is a really complex process that has scientific whitepapers backing it. When the drive goes down you reprotect the EC stripes for those pages. Then when new drives are added to the cluster you actually want to "rebalance" data so that heavy multistream workloads will hit all the new drives equally.

      You are mixing up gigabit and gigabyte here! 1 gigabyte = 8 gigabit. So the 400GBit connection relates to roughly 50GByte/s transfer rate - which is still REALLY fast though, albeit "only" like 7 times as fast as the fastest consumer NVME drives :)

      Honestly as a big/medium iron IT professional it's kinda cringey. They don't really understand how enterprise gear works.
      *You don't need full surge power for all devices in the rack. Use staggered power-on, or random power-on delay when power is restored.
      *They don't seem to understand how server PS deal with 3 phase vs 240 single phase, that just because the PS is 1100W does not mean the switch USES 1100W, the manufacturer just used their standard light duity 1U PS.
      *Enterprise server fans go full power until the ILO comes online for hardware safety, even if the system is powered off. It keeps the hardware from baking if the ILO crashes and can't manage the fan speed.
      *Copper DAC cables are NOT expensive.
      *Copper DAC cables they are using don't have much if any logic in them. Active cables would, but those are not active cables.
      *Those servers were NOT that loud, this was just standard 1U server noise. Connect power to a rack of Sun/Oracle SPARC servers, that is much louder. I've had DC management call me because my SPARC servers were the loudest in the building and causing comments from the other side of the (100,000 sq.ft.) room.
      Also ZFS resilver times are dependent on data size, not pool size. it was fast to resilver because there was no *data* to resilver.

      I actually respect that he sort of checked his statement because he doesn't want to discourage anyone in his company from reporting injuries. It's fine if he doesn't want to hassle with reporting his own injuries, but preventing a generally negative perception and work culture toward injury reporting is a ethical decision as an employer. The last thing you want is for your employees to think, consciously or not, that they are somehow whiney or weak or being "that guy" if they report issues.

    I remember thinking how cool the DAC connectors looked when I first built and setup our servers and network at work. They previously had CAT 5e everywhere and a combination of 1Gbps and 100Mbps "fast ethernet". For less than the price of 1 server from Dell (that only had SATA SSDs and 1Gbps networking...) I built out a workstation/server that is faster in every conceivable way, has NVMe drives for the SQL database, dual 40Gbps connections, and an "old" network switch (thanks Wendell for the great videos and forum posts!) that has 48 ports @ 10Gbps (rj45) and 4/40Gbps ports. I saw you guys also got your DAC cables from FS, and I gotta say, I was thoroughly impressed at their prices and quality. My deployment has been going strong for over 2.5 years at this point, and it's still the fastest, and most reliable server we've ever had. Put some 10Gbps NICs in all of the engineers workstations, and had their room wired up with CAT6A, and the productivity increase has been phenomenal. Finally got the internet upgraded to 1Gbps symmetrical fiber, and it's made working from home even better. Thanks LTT for really getting me heavily back into tech a few years back. I'm an engineer, but I still do a ton of IT related tasks just because of how much of your content I watch and the curiosity it sparks!

    • @Postman00

      Wow we share a lot of the same tech experiences. I just deployed another storage server about two months ago with two QSFP+ connections to two used enterprise 48-port 10Gbase-T switches that each have 4 QSFP+ ports using DACs from FS (great stuff). The bunch of other storage servers in the rack are connected the same way except for the oldest one that's connected via 4 x 10GBase-T LACP. We also wired the entire office with CAT6A and the infrastructure has served the company exceeding expectations for just over 2 years since we moved in. The difference is that we're a video business and I'm an image technician that does IT related work because I absolutely loved it since I was a kid. 10GBase-T has been very reliable and no one needs to mess around with hard disks and desktop-NASes after ingest anymore.
      The mechanical sliding and clicking of DIMMs, drive sleds, rack rails, and transceivers locking into place never gets old. I'm so glad I get to be hands on with IT even though I ultimately decided to pursue a different career.

      @@robertgarrison1738 most IPMI (or iLo or CIMC) are on if any of the power supplies are plugged in (even when machine is off). Unless both A and B side power supplies have failed, IPMI should be up (in my history with super micro, if you upgrade IPMI to latest firmware, they run fine for years and years). In theory you could remotely cycle the power with an IP PDU, if you really had to. You could also log into your Top-of-Rack out-of-band management switch, where most of your IPMI should be connected, and make sure you are getting MAC/ARP for IP, etc.

I have 5 supermicro servers in my basement, all of which have IPMI ports that I have used for years (9+), most of the time remotely over VPN. I was trying to say, short of a loss of power, or a loss of networking, when upgraded to the latest firmware, they never drop (maybe once on one board, I had to reset the IPMI in the very early days ... that required pulling the whole tray out and getting access to the board.) I can't imagine LTT/LMG would be doing anything different.
      As for the IPMI type, I just logged into the IPMI port I use the most on my server, and it branded SuperMicro, and I see no evidence it was made by anyone but them, it looks like an internal software version called "Redfish". Which from this: www.supermicro.com/en/solutions/management-software/redfish looks like an API. Which VMware vSphere can use for things like DPM.

  • @brianreynolds5373
    @brianreynolds5373 2 года назад +319

    I really hope they installed (off-camera) the small flush-mount screws that supermicro rails need to be fully secured to the sides of the servers. Yes, the rails clip on nicely (9:22) to the server sides via back-to-front force and seem secure . But they'll pull right off the server again with any front-to-back force put along the rail. . . which is likely to happen as you pull the server out of the rack for maintenance. Especially when you're de-racking. This can lead to the server suddenly falling as you pull it out, usually when you hit the stops. Ask me how I know (I didn't rack the servers that taught me this!).

They are tiny and screw in flush with the rails so they don’t interfere with sliding while still making it impossible for the rails to just come “unclipped” from the sides of the server. The concern is that the rails are merely “clipped” and not screwed to the sides. What they are doing at 12:56 is just screwing the front screws in to keep the server from sliding on the rails normally (which can happen inadvertently while plugging things into the back, etc.).

    Hearing about this project on WAN Show is what finally got me to build my own rack and finally get organized with all my various server boxes and random drives that have just been strewn about on floors and tables and in closets and who knows where else. My budget is considerably smaller, my rack is only 15U and I'm using only 9U of it, but as I've been migrating everything, building a proper rack mount NAS, and getting everything nicely organized and cable managed, I've felt like an absolute boss. I even have a proper switch on the thing, it's glorious. So anyway, thanks for finally giving me the kick in the pants that I've needed for a long time now, making me geek out about this thing and making me want to be able to finally geek out about my own modest set-up. I mean heck, I've got rack mounted Raspberry Pis on this thing, overall it's not that fancy. But everything is in one place and clean, and it's already impressed the absolute crap out of my friends and relatives sending them pictures. I should have done this years ago and it's this series of videos that made me do it.
