Apr. 14th, 2008 09:01 amWell, after the configuration work on the switches this weekend, and after plugging in a cable- I'd miscounted which blade NICs had to be connected and completely left the last one unused- all our blades are now happily up and running and usable at speeds that make 'em pretty much indistinguishable from local servers. We'll be working on drawing up a plan to get our other servers moved to Secaucus soon, I don't doubt. For now I'm just going to quietly snicker about the fact that you can tell exactly when I started being the one to name the servers, because our originals had names like FORDLONG and DEV1 and PROD1... and now there's SPOCK and ROMANA and TELETRAAN-1 through TELETRAAN-10. Among others.
No, the names do not particularly reflect the function of the systems in question. On the other hand, they make them recognizable and distinguishable, and I like to think maybe just a little less intimidating, too.
