Recently moved our old 220S to live under an HP DL120 G6… This video shows the PERC4 card and 220S blinkenlights in not the best of moods 
Apologies for the quality, I am not a filmmaker.

My Home Network
After watching many videos on people’s setups I figured I would post my own. Emma and I just moved into a new place with a spare bedroom which we decided to convert into a studio. With new moving costs unfortunately I haven’t been able to expand as much as would have liked, however now that we are all settled, I shall be bringing a steady stream of new equipment into my lair. Update 10/20/10: New video of my servers and core network. www.youtube.com
Garage Datacenter 3
This video shows the completion of the big reordering of the garage datacenter. We moved various servers around so that we could have as even distribution of power usage as possible per rack so as not to over stress the ups’s. We also racked up the servers and moved the racks back into place.
Home Data Center – Quick Vid
A quick little video tour of the home data center. I’ve moved about 30 miles from where I was and moving all of this was no easy task. Just glad to be up out of the basement. I’ve scaled down everything being used quite a bit as you can tell from none of the 1u Dells being powered on. I now use my DL380 G3 as my primary server, DHCP, DNS, RRAS, AD, File, virtual SAN server, storage, backup for remote clients, pretty much everything. The DL380 G2 is my first ESX 3.5 host, currently running four 6 VM’s, the Dell PowerApp 220 being my second ESX 3.5 Host running 3 VM’s, and a soon to be added HP DL360 G3 with 2x Dual core Xeon’s and I will be giving it 8 GB Ram. Once the DL360 comes in it will be deployed as a new ESX host and all of my current VM’s will be transferred to that host. meanwhile retiring my other two ESX host’s. I plan to sell one of them, the Dell PowerApp 220, and keep the DL380 G2 as a spare ESX host should the other go down for any reason. Give me your Comments and Rate the Video!
Data Center Move
Cisco Nexus 5000 and 2000 connected to a Nexus 1000v on 2 Dell 1000m chassis. Upgrade from 1 6509 to a second 6509 with VSS that connects to the Nexus 5000. We moved all production equipment over a weekend. We had everything back online in less than 48 hours. We transformed the worst cabling and cheapest cabinets I have ever encountered into a layout that is one of the cleanest cabling and cabinets that I have ever seen. It was a rare opportunity to move the all our production equipment at the same time. Most companies our size would not have taken such a big risk.
