Mounting Brackets/rails For A DAT Drive In A DELL Server

Sep 13, 2007

I look after a Dell PE2800 server, it has a pair of 5.25 bays on the front, the top most of the two contains a Dell PowerVault 100T DAT72 tape backup drive. I have a second identical drive that i now wish to install into the bay beneath in a similar manner.

Problem is this - my colleague tell me that Dell are no longer selling the mounting brackets / rails needed to install the drive. I have had a fruitless look through the internet for a number of weeks now and hope that someone in the forum may be able to suggest a solution to the problem... anybody know a source for the brackets? Is there a parts site somewhere ive missed? Anyone happen to have what im after? Or any alternative suggestions?

High Density Rack/colocation (~10 KW/rack)

Dec 6, 2007

With all the high power servers/blade servers, the 40A (@ 110V) power limit is way too small. I am wondering if there is any colo space targeted for high density application, e.g. with 10 KW/cab limit for 60A @ 208V power drops. Does anybody know of such high density colocation space? East coast is preferred.

Thanks To Rack 911

Sep 27, 2007

I woke up to a complaint by the ISP of spamming for one of our servers. More than 10 000 spams in a shared hosting environment. Found Steven online, thank God! PM him and he went to work looking for the culprit. He spend time monitoring and putting in scripts to catch the culprit and in no time found the faulty script causing the spams.

Really saved me a big headache on how to explain to the ISP. Thanks to the consistent excellent work done by Steven of Rack911.

Those unpatched forums of clients can really be a hassle and a big source of problems.

Private Rack

Mar 12, 2008

Our server count with The Planet only seems to be increasing as of late and I'm now starting to drive myself nuts with bandwidth counts, costs, etc.

My main concern at the moment is our total bandwidth. While we might have a server with a 2500GB limit only use 50% we might have a 1500GB limit use 200%. I understand that any overages are our own fault, etc but there must be a way for us to combine all bandwidth across all servers!

Is it possible for The Planet or any of the other big boys to provide private racks with pooled bandwidth without going colo?

Rack Monitors

Mar 25, 2008

I honestly dont understand why does DELL, HP and others price their 1U TFT monitors at 3 times the cost of the cheapest laptop?

I mean, dont get me wrong, I am all for spending good money to get quality products but I feel very awkward spending 3 times as much for a screen and keyboard when I can get their laptops WITH OS, MEMORY AND HDD for 3 times as less and use it as the 1U TFT monitors.

I can get a powerful server from Dell and HP at that price for crying out loud.

But then again, I might be seriously overlooking something here because what justifies such high price?

Own DNS Server In Rack

Apr 26, 2008

We have about 50 Cpanel servers in our own AS with two upstream providers. On the cpanel servers we use the following IPs in the /etc/resolv.conf:

1. IP of the cpanel server

2. DNS IP of the 1st upstreamprovider

3. DNS IP of the 2nd upstreamprovider

I realized, that the upstreampoviders nameserver are not answering that fast and therefore I was thinking to make my own DNS Server, which I could use additionaly after the IP of the cpanel server.

Is this a good idea or is it not necessary? If it is a good idea, which dns deamon would be recommended? If we build this server, maybe would be also nice if we could offer DNS as a single service. Is there any solution where we could create user accounts where user could manage there own dns zones?

How To Use U320 On A 1U Rack

Apr 20, 2007

I´m having a problem right now. I need to buy a Dual Xeon system, to use 2 Quad Cores, however there are some things I need:

- I already have a SCSI controller (Dell Perc 4 (PCIe))

- I already have HD´s (3x SCSI U320)

- I want to use RAID5

- The chassis must be 1U

... my problem is that I never worked with SCSI U320, just SATA and SAS. I usually buy Tyan racks, more specifically, this one: Tyan Tank GT20 5381

It doesn´t have the option for SCSI U320, however they sell SCSI Backplanes that are compatible with this barebone. My question is:

- How do I connect a standalone card (like the one I have) to the backplane? Is there any SCSI connector on the backplane?

- Since space is a bit of a problem in 1U racks, are there any kind of cables that can do more tight turns inside the case?

40 Amps In A Rack

Jan 2, 2007

What do you guys think about putting 40 Amps into one rack? Our colocation provider wants to whine about it and not allow it. When we're paying them $1000+ a month - I think this is just shoddy. They say it's for heat concerns - but really this just makes me mad. We have fifteen 1U servers in there, and can't get much more on our existing 20 amps.

Rack Shelves In UK

Does anyone have any recommendations where I can get a few cheap (full length) rack shelves in the UK. They don't have to be adjustable but would prefer if they where full ones and not the half ones as I don't think they would take the weight correctly.

Bubble Rack Review

Mar 26, 2009

I was having problems with a host and Ed (one of the owners) helped me out creating a custom package to fit my needs and moving my sites across.

I've posted more than my fair share of tickets and they all get responded to quickly. All the tickets have either been my own problems for example installing scripts or sales questions.

Server speeds are good for me and prices are low.

Rack PDUs At The Co-Lo? Zero U Never Works

Nov 9, 2009

I have had bad experiences with zero-U PDUs (i have only tried the APC ones). They keep getting in the way of equipment when you put them in the back of the cabinet .... I usually end up just having them standing up in the back of the cabinet and zip tie them to something so they dont fall down.

Am I just stupid and using these wrong or do other people have this issue? if you have an extra long server that sits out the back it bumps into the PDU so you got to nestle the PDUs into a corner of the cabinet.

What PDUs is everything using in various co-los? I might go with the 2U rack PDUs but with the need for 2 of them that is 4U wasted (and also since they are not very long you need some long cable runs for all of the equipment to plug into them)..

APC - AP7930 Switched Rack PDU

Mar 29, 2009

Have an issue that I am dealing with, APC support couldn't really help me get anywhere either.

Here is the story:

I am leasing a rack at Equinix in Sunnyvale.

It came with 3 APC Switched rack PDUs.

By the looks of it, they were used by the previous customer.

APC sent me a serial to RJ11 programming cable, and I have been trying to use HyperTerminal, but I get a blank screen when I attempt to connect.

I have tried arp commands, but, again, it looks like the device was previously configured.

I downloaded this: [url] hyper terminal software.

Rack Power Consumption In The UK

Feb 23, 2008

My nearest major city is Manchester, so naturally I'm looking for rackspace in the region.

Unless anyone has better suggestions, I'm thinking of going with NorthernColo. They start at £50/month but jump to £70/month if you draw more than 1A of current.

If my basic physics is anything to go by, 0.5A at our 240V means a maximum server power rating of 120 watts.

...are there any dual-core / 2GB RAM box configurations which consume less than 300W thesedays? My own USB mouse for my laptop consumes 50mA.

Otherwise I'm begining to think of their 0.5A pricing as being a bit of a scam, since the 1A price also pays for 2U worth of space.

Switched Rack PDU AP7921

May 28, 2008

I have a Switched Rack PDU AP7921 in use and it was working now for several months without any problems. But sice yesterday I have a problem with the network connection. I was not able to connect to the PDU anymore, after pressing the reboot button it was working again. But after a few minutes, the problem appeared again.

Is this a common problem of this APC PDUs? Is there a fix, for example a firmware upgrade or is it broken?

Good Place To Get A 1/4 Rack? [UK]

Mar 5, 2008

where about I can get a decent 1/4 rack for a couple server's I'll be using and selling. I was thinking BlueSquare or Savvis. Blue square would be decent, although I don't see a price scheme on there website.

Poundhost, who are in the BSQ have been the most "attractive" to me. The rack is £260/month although It has a few thing's I would need more of and not sure if they offer it.

1) I will need atleast 50 IP Adress's

2) I want 20,000GB transfer on the rack, so each server get's 2000gb.

I was wondering also these question's:

1) Do I have to go to the datacenter personally, or can I send the server's down with a courier?

2) Is there a way on a rack, to limit each server to a set ammount of bandwith?

I'm asking these question's as I've never had a rack before, nor colocation, It's usually been dedicated. I've been looking to get atleast 50% of them quad core server's and hope they would sell like hotcakes.

Not All IPs At Equal Speed On Our Rack

Mar 27, 2007

Where I'm certain that this is a gateway issue, perhaps experience will prevail, where someone having experienced a similar circumstance will have a solution.

We have a box, running CentOS 4.3 (64 bit) that has an 8-block at LayeredTech through ZipServers. Strangely enough, two of the IPs are operating at a reduced speed!

To test the matter, we've posted a file shared across all IPs (/var/www/html/testfile.gz), and when downloading through different IPs, the speeds are different.

For example (fictitious file links):

72.232.186.42/testfile.gz (DL at 350k/sec)
72.232.186.43/testfile.gz (DL at 350k/sec)
72.343.186.44/testfile.gz (DL at 350k/sec)
72.232.186.45/testfile.gz (DL at 70k/sec)
72.232.186.46/testfile.gz (DL at 70k/sec)

Further, this isn't related to Apache, as FTP is affected in the exact same manner. If we FTP into the machine using a same account, but with different IPs as hostnames, the download speeds differ just as the HTTP downloads do.

InterNap Rack Cost

Jan 24, 2007

After running 6 or so dedicated servers purchased thru several different resellers, my company decided to get a rack at the Chicago InterNap DC.

The quote we got was $3,400 per month inclusive of cabinet, Usage based 10/100, and Cross connects.

Have a couple questions.

A) Is that price in the ballpark of where it should be?

and

B) Our quote states Usage based 100mb Ethernet (10MBps Min). Tier2 at $150 month and $1,400 for the 10.00 Mbps Base. Being new to this, I have no idea exactly how much bandwidth we can use before the "usage" fees kick in.

How does this work?

Building Your Perfect Rack...

May 12, 2007

Lets say you're building your 'perfect' rack or cabinet, you've got a single network and power drop from your provider, 20 x mixed 1 and 2u boxes (two interfaces per box), 1u switch and require remote reboot across them all. No other servers to go in the rack at a later date.

What are you gonna buy if budget wasn't an issue? rack/cab/pdu/cbl management/etc/etc.

Basically it's your geek pr0n rack/cab. I'll post mine once I've had a further think.
