Home server room

  • An update of my home server rack. I just got in my side panels as well as moved around some of my servers. I'm going to probably sell some of the IBM x335 servers, so that's pretty much the reason for the rearranging. Had to also rewire the whole rack as a result.
    *Update* 4/20/2013
    I have been getting a lot of comments and questions about what I use this for or what I do for a living. So just to give you guys an update, I have recently moved to a different location and have made some changes to my home server room. We currently acquired some space in a data center for most of our production servers that we host on. My home servers are just for server testing and development as well as light weight hosting and proxy serving for some of our clients. So that is pretty much what I do. Testing, development, deploying, hosting and managing servers/networks. I also do some IT consulting for some small businesses and that is what we host, we also host and manage their infrastructure through VDI technologies.
    If you have any other questions feel free to drop me a message and I will do my best to respond quickly or if you want to inquire about some hosting that we could possibly provide for you, I can help you out with that to.
    Thanks for all of your nice comments and likes, I really appreciate it.

    I just LOVE how you got proper ventilation to it!
    A few hours ago I were moving some things in a tiny server room without ANY ventilation except two holes in the door.. Could hardly breathe!

    @PoweredbyCiscoIBM What size of rack screws do you use for the rack. I have a set of IBM x336s to install in a threaded rack but I don't know the exact screw to use when at Home Depot. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I've liked your setup and cable organization since the first video of yours I saw. Looks great.

    Fantastic Job!!!!! I am currently relocating my servers to new cabinets, I am doing the cabling exactly the same as you have done. I have been wiring industrial network and control panels for years, can't stand untidy cabling. My biggest hurdle is a 40 Amp power supply I will need to install.

    excellent setup. I'm jealous. The cabling is very clean. You did a great job.

    Wow, very nice!! I personally love the sound of humming servers, kinda like some guys love the sound of a big block V8, or a Harley Davidson! Knowing you created that complex buch of machines and they are all talking to each other makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, LOL!! Again, great job, it's a masterpiece!

    The tool is you. Ive got an similar center to that.
    I host peoples webpages, Voice servers, mail server, stream server, file servers. And tons of other hosting services.
    Its a additional income ontop of my normal job and also an hobby of mine.
    Just because you are way to technicaly impaired doesnt mean everyone is.

    @derSchweiz 12 лет назад

    No patch panels? Did you terminate the jacks around the house one end with the wall plate female RJ45, and the other end just with a male RJ45 into the switchs? How fast is your upload speed to the internet? Anything less than 10Mbps upload is pretty bad when you have so many servers.

  • @xxkinetikxx
    @xxkinetikxx 14 лет назад

    Stunning setup. Couple of questions. I have a small half rack setup with only 3 servers running and a few switches/routers and the heat is insane. How do you deal with that? Also what do you use all that for at home?

  • @alexrevega

  • @Nothing7869-t4u
    @Nothing7869-t4u 12 лет назад

    oh superb....is it the current cost? and actually i dont have any knowledge of servers, as I am a software developer. I want to host my web application at my place, and the servers that I use is the software that are downloadable at the specific vendors site(you must be knowing). Are these the actual servers which companies use(similar to this, but with huge amount) for their applications?

  • @bradeinarsen
    @bradeinarsen 13 лет назад

    A work of love. That rack setup is cleaner than the one I used to run for my small web company. Is that whole thing for pictures of the family? or do you have substantial upstream bandwidth?

    @decimat777 12 лет назад

    @PoweredbyCiscoIBM lol this server looks almost exactly like the one i built at our IT office but i put HP Proliant dl380's in it instead. Same rack and switches and cabling style. I personally have an HP ProL gl580G3 as my home server but i wonder why you would really have something as much as this. Are any of the OS's virtualized or is there an OS per server. And do you host websites or mail or something.

  • @WimGodden

    If you were rendering or storing video, or backing up your job files, I'd understand, but as it stands, just for testing, you must really be rich, to fire up this much power for no reason.
    But power to you, you did it exemplary.
