Downsizing the Lab<\/h3><\/div>

Today I would like to share my downsizing project. As power gets more expensive (even I have own solar power) and I don’t have the time to play with it a lot I removed everything unneccesary and move on with only production servers.<\/p>\n

On the left side the „before“ situation:<\/p>\n

Unsued Supermicro Server<\/p>\n

DIY main storage Server<\/p>\n

Quanta server as ESXi host<\/p>\n

New Supermicro storage server<\/p>\n

3x older HP DL160G6 as cluster lab<\/p>\n

Fujitsu blade center<\/p>\n

HP storage server<\/p>\n

HP blade center<\/p>\n

Details for „production“ servers are below.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Afterwards<\/p><\/h2><\/div>

My smaller rack now carrries from top to bottom:<\/p>\n

Fujitsu Celsius C620 (E3-1280v2, 32GB, Nvidia Quadro 6000) was used to be my second VM Server for GPU related stuff. But as this does not support SR-IOV and I didn’t get it working for plex I will replace this for a dedicated Nextcloud host.<\/p>\n

Quanta S210-X22RQ (2x E5-2670, 256GB) is my main VM host, currently running ~30 VMs (Nextcloud, 2 Windows Domains, Docker, Gameserver, Plex etc.)<\/p>\n

DIY Storage Server (i3-6100, 32GB, 14x 4TB, 6x 600GB, some SSDs as Cache, reused 2 damages chassis) will be replaced slowly by the next Storage Server.<\/p>\n

Supermicro CSE-847 (2x E5620, 48GB, 4x 14TB, 2x 1TB) used to be new storage server but disks are to expensive right now \ud83d\ude41<\/p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Back:<\/p>\n

Netgear GS752TXS<\/p>\n

some Avocent console server<\/p><\/p>\n<\/div>

Plans for future<\/strong><\/p>\n

move 2,5″ storage to 3,5″ storage and remove old storage server<\/p>\n

maybe HA VM host with central storage<\/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\/181"}],"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=181"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/181\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":225,"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/181\/revisions\/225"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/felixburs.de\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=181"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
