HAH. LET has our own маленькая семья :P
Probably I use the most boring method: a, b, c, ... , (never reached so far), x, y, z. :P
Currently I use dragon-themed hostnames (FIRE, ICE, SHADOW, GOLD, NEST, WING, EYE, CLAW, etc...).
For my old hosting company I used dogs breeds (dach for my main webserver since I owned a Dachshund at the time, labrador for my mail server, basset for my slow backup server).
I wondered what the naming theme was for those. Name one "Puff".
LoL, we already have the whole nomenclature setup (even for servers we don't have yet). I wish I had some good names for our network devices but those are just SW, FW, and ROU.
This thread had me look up our document and inspired me to update it. Hopefully my partner will like the proposed changes.
Я не русский ...
@KuJoe how many names do you have planned?
@Whitelabelhosting if the names work then wy change it?
A friend of mine names his servers after nuclear reactors. One is called Borssele, one Tsjernobyl and to more I can't remember.. Quite funny to hear: "Yeah, Tsjernobyl crashed this morning, but its up and running now"
My dns nodes starts with a,e,i,o,u
a > armour (asia), e- europe u - us i and o are ips from cpanel servers it self
my storage nodes x,y,z called zombie (just storage) ,xray (rsync) , york (dbase)
cpanel nodes casino, centro, (may be next cigar, column, cushion)
direct admin node domino
I think we have 12 or so. Pretty much all OpenVZ nodes are location-FIRE###, all Xen PV nodes are location-SHADOW###, all cPanel servers are location-ICE###, and all OpenVZ Backup VPS nodes are location-GOLD###. We also have a bunch of different names for internal servers (web, database, monitoring, VPN, Proxmox host, etc...).
That's a cool naming scheme!
Volcanoes, there's a lot of them. Personal computers are all variations on thud, bang wallop etc.
