Use about 4 bottle caps between each of those switches and that Dell R210 for airflow and to help avoid high thermal build up/sharing. The bottle caps work perfectly.

Seeing you use dymo labels on cables is triggering my OCD. I am forever picking them up off the ground after the exhaust heat peels them off when other techs use them. Please invest in a Panduit wrap around labeller (LS8E or newer one if your a mad lad), it will change your life if you label cable frequently. It wraps around and then self laminates over the text with a clear section. You can thank me later. ;-) P.S. great work with the build. Love the video.

The zip ties do concern me a little. I got a rack nut tool and it helps a ton with square hole racks. Rack studs and speed nuts (the ones with the long spring clips in the back) are also good options for load bearing 1u gear. But as long as you have the rail ears far enough under the switches, the zip ties should do great for keeping the switches in place. Not a trick I have seen before.
@DigitalSpaceport
@DigitalSpaceport Жыл бұрын
Yeah I wanted to use the rail and keep the support rigid under the base unit as much as possible. The 6036 and r210ii don't have ears that attach at all properly so they end up relying on the unit under them to support their weight. That's a decent amount of sag they get as a result so I reused a md1000 rail for the base. That rail didn't have proper front drilled spots for any but the base switch. I did drill out for the 6610 but it was a major pita. I should slide it out and nut and screw it in to give better "oops" support mid stack.

To think it all grew out of that first SC846 I got 10 years ago. I mean I had a rack at work in 2012 but bringing things home starts ya on a different path.

I run a small business and do GIS data processing so I have large datasets and need lots of compute. Moving things around taking a day is not uncommon even at these speeds.

if you like improvising, tig welding is 10x faster and 10x stronger than zip ties if you don't polish every tack. less flexible to fudge, but just layout each tray segment, fixture, level, tack, repeat.

I'm not criticizing you because you surely know what you're doing, but wouldn't it be cooler to replicate an actual datacenter setup with Top-of-Rack switches and a dedicated interconnect rack?

Insanely valuable video! Sorry for the noob question, but where is the router? Or is one of these switches acting as a router? I'm taking baby steps in this area so I'm confused when I see such a huge setup. My basic question is how does this rack connect to the internet.. Thank you!
@DigitalSpaceport
@DigitalSpaceport Жыл бұрын
Thanks! I try to add value to existing content out in the tubes. The router is in a seperate closet and is a PFsense box. There is a video coming on that (and a network overview) very soon.

@@DigitalSpaceport Thank you for your response and can't wait to see the new video! Another noob question, is one router enough to cover low latency / high bandwith data for all these devices?

​@@pictzoneI believe you can only really have one router. But I'm also pretty new to all of this. I suppose you could have a internet facing router and then have vlans on managed switches.
@pictzone
@pictzone Жыл бұрын
@@dominick253 Yep, that seems to be the answer. As soon as you introduce another router or a VLAN, you're creating a subnet. But you usually don't need such a setup.

You only have 1 L3 router. Switches (L2) are fine to have multiple. Yes I could run thousands of devices off a simple PFsense box and that video IS SOON I just ran the final 40Gbit cable in the attic.

In the video you asked if the zip ties are upsetting me. Well the answer is hell yes! LMAO I'm not gonna lie it kinda triggered me BIG TIME! Get some cage nuts you wacko! All this money spent on gear and you cant buy cage nuts?!?!
@DigitalSpaceport
@DigitalSpaceport Жыл бұрын
There is a weird reason for things to have gone like this. Let me explain. I have tons of cage nuts, however I dont have rails for any of these switches. I HATE the saggie switch syndrome also but its even worse. I dont have proper ears for a few of these so they have to piggyback on top of the second switch. Solution was to reuse a rail pair from a long gone MD1000. However this presented issues as it has an incredibly drill bit resistant front plate. I broke all the proper sized drill bits I had trying to drill it out. I did get enough for the bottom switch to have the screws thread in properly. and the rails support it very well from the bottom. However I needed a plan B vs buy ears and wait for video, Zip Ties! I knew it was going to trigger folks so decided to turn it into a joke in the video (edits are not linear) However now that they are in there I am not sure I will spend the money on the ears. They really are held in place well.

My electric bill isnt that bad as I have 10c per KWh rate. Usually in the 250-325 range monthly depending on usage. If I need to run a lot of the quad socket servers, it can hit 800 pretty fast. Will be doing a whole video on the home datacenter and modernization things I have going on. Just started getting into AMD EPYC processors and can see them taking a much larger role in my home server setups
