This is on how many nodes?
Yes, it is faster when I reinstall an OS and also virtual media is buggy on storage server.
I always had DDR4 DIMMs on hazi.ro
Server, Dell R630
6 nodes
Telesystem, Bacau
Hmm, I feel robed
Florin, if in need of 10G+ stuff, contact me.
By the way, now you are officially at home with your brand, hazi=house in Hungarian.
Probably you will feel better after yabs(network speed).
Sure but I won’t need anything for a while.
Yeah, I knew about it.
I enjoy looking these machines, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy
It's definitely not hot there.
Then why feel fuzzy? We have two independent servers (HP CL3100 G3 & Dell R630) if we look from bottom to top and above a blade with 4 independent nodes, each with 6 SSDs out of the 24.
Florin, what is the power usage of those 4 blades? at idle as you have them now?
Please man, drop the RJ45
And get some decent power cords, those are...... well not for 300W upwards.
It is starting look good.
use power cords from FS, see in the picture, the will not melt under load.
You can see the difference in diameter of the power cord, those will take 16A at 220V.

Yes very true and PDUs from ATEN (my I'm usage this model) , In the past it has actually happened to us that cables melt because they were put right in front of the server, or extension cords
After change to C13-C14 and professional PDUs this problem fixed
Regards
Well, Calin, any decent Data-center will send you home with those black C13-C14 power cord that you buy for 5 bucks.
RDS-RCS actually checked those before they let us power on all servers.
You can see the black, 5USD ones are so thin compared to Quality stuff.
Picture was taken when we de-commissioned our VNX and a few HP servers, we used standard cables for a few ours until we finished migrating services.
About 450W.
I use RJ45 only on the Dell server that does not have a network card that supports SFP+ and temporarily on one of the 4 nodes until the network card arrives from the UK to replace the faulty one.
Thanks

The cables have a maximum capacity of 2200VA and my PSUs are 300, 550, 750 and 1600VA.
In the future I will also change the type of PDU + the cables used, personally I had no idea that there were other options since I was in DC taking the servers to the colocation with PC power cables like the ones from the URL above.
Florin, those are TRASH!!!!. We usually throw them in the garbage.
You really do not want to cut corners at power cables.
Get some C13-C14 PDU and quality cables, you do not have 300 servers, so the expense is not that much, but you will sleep better at night, trust us.
For the moment I do not consume more than 1.2KWh while using 8 different sockets of the PDU (PDU which has a nominal power of 3.5KWh).
I will take your recommendation into account in the future.
Thank you!
PLease do, I do not wish you to be the next OVHcloud event.
Hey!
We just got our CCTV system:)
can't go cheaper than that
How much means “cheap”?
My training course "How much cheap is cheaper than cheap" is available on udemy.
The dude spend 15k to host 2 servers in his house. Let the man live his dream.
Well said. I support OP with this adventure! I enjoy reading the progress reports too.

Hey!
Late last night, with the help of my brothers, I finished installing the CCTV system.
Need higher quality to identify burglar.
As you see, there is “Medium” on each cam, and that reffers to the stream output quality, on TV the image is very clear in 1920p
Just FYI, from a security standpoint, it's not wise to show what your cameras can (and can't) see. If anyone was going to steal your servers it's because they know they exist from this thread.
Also, invest in some cheap IR flood-lights for night time. If your cameras have night vision, chances are the on-board IR light sucks. A $100 on Amazon and you can get several decent quality outdoor rated IR flood lights and place where needed to make dark areas more visible. Just be aware of where the IR shadows will lay so they're not falling in the frame of another camera, etc.
Hello!
I also thought about the fact that it is a risk to show what the cameras are filming, but at the same time no one guarantees that the cameras will stay in this position and at the same time, let's not forget that 5 people live here permanently, even 6 occasionally.
I have servers of a maximum of 6000 euros that weigh over 100 kg together, they are neither user to steal nor very expensive to capitalize.
Yeah, it ain't worth it even in Romania.
