1. Report
All tasks done, left to do:
- Insert disks 2x 1 TB WD disks (waiting in our cabinet) into Dell server (missing drive brackets)
- Recable the whole thing? (too many too dense wires at the back)
2. Photos
http://hcoop.net/~rkd/hcoop/imgs-2010-01-05/
3. Software installation
- With USB stick (Debian stable/lenny AMD64)
Have non-free Debian package "firmware-bnx2" on the USB stick to recognize the network card in the server (http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/firmware-bnx2/download)
- Manual network configuration
Hostname: winner from member poll https://members.hcoop.net/portal/poll?id=31. (Note: when asked for the hostname, type just the hostname without domain name)
- IP Address: 69.90.123.75
Partitioning: see SetupNewMachines
3.1. Questions
Does the Dell server come with 6 drawers for disks (where disks can be inserted), or it comes with placeholders only and we need to get the drawers? No, drawers are needed separately
Any way to hook up the new server to our KVM/IPKVM? Do we have enough ports or a way to do this? (I believe yes, because IPKVM has 4 channels and IIRC at least one currently has no signal, meaning it is free?) Yes, server is hooked up to the KVM!
What to do with Krunk? We'd like to get rid of it, but as the network port tends to timeout and shut down from time to time, we can't say it's a reliable system. Do we want to put it up on Ebay or Craigslist anyway, or we just give it to any of our members who wants to pick it up and/or pay for delivery? It's just left there, disconnected and unplugged
