Towards Order: Give them the rack!
March 11, 2007 |
Last week we almost got the cabling finished, so this week we’ll finish labeling and rebixing the cables in the electrical room. There’s one stray cable to trace from the kitchenette as well. From there there’s a carpentry job for the Contemporary Service Console (installing some wire trays along the back walls of the closet) and maybe completing the cable structuring at the Sanctuary Console.
While this is going on I hope to get the server and KVM in the kitchenette into the rack and complete the restructuring in there. IF we get this done we’ll have reached a milestone because it will mean that the physical infrastructure for IT has been completed and we can move up the stack to the next level. What’s next? Ensuring that all network devices are cataloged and accounted for in both DHCP and DNS. and we can move forward on implementing VLANs.
Stay tuned for the progress report…
