<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>Starting from top to bottom:<\/p>\n
First one (or better two) is my pfSense cluster (Supermicro X8SIL, Intel X3430, 4GB RAM, 16GB USB drive, quad port NIC). My main firewall. Currently I have 8 seperate networks, I’m hosting some web- and game-servers and this firewalls secures my network. It does basic routing and services like dhcp, dns etc.<\/p>\n
The first HP server (DL 360 G7, 2x QC CPU, 96GB RAM, 4x 600GB HDD) is my 24\/7 ESXi host. It’s running ~10 VMs (Web\/Gameserver, Jump-Server, LibreNMS, Domain Controller, Render-Server).<\/p>\n
The next three (DL160 G6, 2x QC CPU, 32GB RAM) are for virtualization testing (ESXi, xen, xcp-ng, proxmox, kvm). I like to test on real hardware and i configure mostly a cluster with three nodes. This are no productive systems. But i like to build a system that can be used for production just for training and for fun.<\/p>\n
This nodes are followed by my Freenas-Server. The HP Storageworks (6 Core CPU, 32GB RAM) is connected with the disk-shelf below. It is my storage-server for everything. My private data, for iSCSI and NFS shares…<\/p>\n
Next server is used to be my backup fileserver. But I only put this one in my rack when i got it but not more. In the meantime the hardware is actually too old to be used for this purpose.<\/p>\n
The next Dell server was my pfSense before I got my Supermicro Cluster on the top.<\/p>\n
The IBM server (there’s actually two, but a friend borrowed one) are for software-tests and CAD calculations for my brother.<\/p>\n
The older HP Servers used to be some hypervisors but they have been replaced by the other servers. Now they’re collecting dust and are high-tech fillers.<\/p>\n
Then there is my Bladecenter HP c7000. The main reason why I have a Bladecenter is that I wanted to have one. Just to be in my rack. I want to learn how to handle this systems but I’m just searching for some SAN solution to get some production-like tests. More or less for future use.<\/p>\n
What you don’t see are two switches on the back (Cisco Catalyst 3560G Port & Quanta LB4 and i just bought a Quanta LB8 for 10GBE) and a KVM + PDUs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/169"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=169"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/169\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":175,"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/169\/revisions\/175"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
