We replace ours in the DC with Y cables. Cleans things up quite a bit and saves some PDU space.

I am going to price shorter cords, or put new ends on them after shortening them
The Dell cords are always super thick and long () We never use them.
yeah its a real PITA
each PDU is on a different circuit so if the UPS tosses one or a breaker toasts the machines will still be up

So are ours, one leg of the Y cable feeds one server, the other leg feeds another.
Not a great pic but you can kinda see whats going on. We do the same for our SAN.

Depending on your PDU's this works, but our PDU's have 2 outlets per circuits for about 8 circuits per PDU so I just use short power cords.
They are lucky they had a raised floor. It most likely saved the day by giving the water a place to go.

Professional routing equipment!
What are they? And actually I've seen Pix 506s and similar turned on their side like that before.
2 Fritzboxes (I bet those americans don't know them
btw...JensS...german?)3 Alice routers (same as above)
the larger ones, I don't know.
"Great" stuff next to those Cisco 10000 and 6509

Haven't been around in awhile (forum got gay), but I thought I'd come post some network porn from the last month.

I just got a boner.
You mean creating a port based vlan with 1-12+25 and 13-24+26 or is there actually a 'mode'? Never heard this terminology with procurve Oo

Wow, if you are selling those where were you last week ?!
If the price is right I might still want to pick one or two up from you, if you intend on selling them...

Nope the 3650's are POE spares for the edge closets that power the security cams. The 20+ 2950's are retired and just collecting dust.
Just bind all the interfaces to a vlan .... you could do any combination of ports you wanted not just a specific block of ports. My switches at work have about 15-20 different vlans configured on each one.
untangle doesn't support vlans
so I have to use both ports 25&26 one per set of ports....
Just have 2 inside interfaces on untagle and plug one into each vlan
He's not talking about Untangle, he's talking about the switch. He's saying you can assign any port to any VLAN, not just putting half on one and half on another VLAN.
What's the first thing you do with ~$4500 in 10GbE optics?
Q1: Do you test all of them in the new switch you got?
A1: No
Q2: Do you check the packing slip to make sure they all arrived?
A2: Hell No
Q3: Do you arrange them on top of a VDX 6720 in the shape of the HardOCP symbol?
A3: YES
It would have been like ~$12K in 10GbE optics if they were actually from Brocade, but we decided to take the plunge with third party optics on this one.
And yes, before anyone asks, my short a$$ had to stand on a ladder to get a proper pic.
