Here is a summary of what needs doing following the chat with Jamie today.
Jamie brought over the KVM switch shown in the attachment and I tested all 16 ports and 7 cables and can confirm that they all work as expected.
TODO
1. Do a rack space budget to get a clear picture of how many front-ends we can fit into the new rack
2. Look into what needs doing and how much effort would be needed to clear rack 1X7 and use that instead of the new rack. The power down on Friday would present a good opportunity to do this work on Monday, so get the info ready before then.
3. Start mounting front-ends, KVM and dolphin network switch
4. Add the BOX rack layout to the CDS upgrade page. |
