Server Area: Clean Up + Organizing Stuff + Migrating Network Gear and Connections Between Racks (It already started.)

*Hello All, *
Today (Saturday) thanks to Marc, Rob, and yours truly the server "cage"
area got some Love. : )
It still needs more love, but with a vacuum and a brush to get the dust out
under the four post rack, and production gear itself.
And not to mention all the wiring that will need to be redone (but this for
part the future).
*AN IDEA IN PROGRESS: *
Migrate all gear and patch panels into the four post rack, so we gain more
space by removing the two posts rack.
*MOVING THINGS IN AND OUT:*
* The three old red servers that were not in used were removed.
* The server that Marc had configure (I forgot what is what the told me he
had configured) got install in the four post rack.
* The 2 HP switches got moved to the 2 post rack to the 4post rack.
* There is old stuff and things we are not going to use. I feel we should
check with Marcus and see if we can add these items to the "pay what you
can" sale event. Rob suggested to have a list and announce the items for
that sale, and also suggested that we put some of that stuff in eBay.
*NEW (USED) GEAR THINGS RUNNING:*
* The 24 and 38 HP switches are running along w the Ruckus wireless
controller, and one of Ruckus Access Points.
* This AP was temporarily set on top of one of the servers and pointing to
the Sudoroom tables, pushing the "Omni Commons" SSID. :)
*COMING TO OMNI EARLY IN THE MORNING:*
I am considering to come to omni about 6:30am (after taking my better half
to work).
*PLAN FOR SUNDAY EARLY MORNING PLAN:*
Since I am going to the there early, and Marc already gave me the Gateway
Server interfaces (LANs) overview, I feel that it would be a good time to
swap their cables to connect to the HP switches, and these to feed the Dell
Switches instead. By doing this I don't perceive anything going south.
*WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?:*
Marc and I talked about it, and we agreed that doing this will allow us to
have a nicer and controlled migration, so we don't have to do that all at
once. This is trivial, now that I know what LANs is each interface at the
Linux server level.
*BTW:*
We started about 11AM something, and ended about 7:40PM. It was a whole day
thing.
Thank you, and please let me know if you have any questions. I will check
email before starting anything tomorrow.

Is routing to/from internet still being done by the same machine? The
server running Ubuntu 14.04, hostname "space". I still had plans to
put in a new lower-power machine for routing - sorry for not getting
to that yet.
10:50 a.m.
Yes. :)

First it was hardware, then it was a halfhearted mix of time and
waiting for Debian 9 to be released. But now that there's an rc it's
just time. Are you hoping it can happen very soon? I mean, I could do
it tomorrow if that would be best, I just didn't think anybody cared
that much :)

What do you have? Right now what we have is just a motherboard wired
to a power supply & hard drive. It would be great if someone could
either provide a case or has something else pre-assembled. Anything
that supports normal linux (not the super-low-mem varieties) and has
multiple ethernet ports is fine.

I could free up one of these pretty quickly, and it does support
off-the-shelf Linux, but the CPU is pretty slow:

Mine has 4GB RAM and a somewhat questionable 16GB Super Talent SSD. I
would probably want to swap out the SSD for something newer and larger
before handing it over. I'd have to dig around and see what other
drives I have available. I'm guessing the router doesn't need a ton of
storage, though, right?
If that's not suitable for some reason (most likely the CPU?), I can
probably find something else.

OK, I'll try to bring it by next week. Does that sound OK? I have a
really hectic work schedule this week. :-/
