The CVL is quite messy now due to recent hardware acquisitions. VTLUUG should do the following:

  • Replace Sunway patch cables with our own
  • Mount/put on rails all rackmount servers
  • Cleanup the 3 unrackable towers we use
    • Put underneath the ghetto cluster?
  • Find somewhere to put the giant SGI monitor (won't fit in a rack)
  • Get a more stable way to hold a monitor in rack 1
  • Cable management (rack 1 especially)
  • Clean out unused servers from rack 1
    • Telnoratti has been doing this and recording their specs
    • Figure out who owns these, can possibly cannibalize
  • Move KVM switch to middle of the rack (cables aren't long enough)
  • Inventory spare components, document on wiki
  • Make 10-12U of space at the bottom of rack 1 if possible (PE2900s coming soon)
  • Label all machines
    • Should have hostname, IP, contact (or mail alias), and services running on it
    • Also should have owner if applicable
