And then you are in a team where everyone is afraid to un-patch it because well, there is no redundancy anyway so we can't because the service follows the high availability rule and so you have this nagging mess in the corner of your eyes. While sitting at your desk, you look through the window of the server room and can see that... :O One factor of lowered focus...

The easiest way to prevent this type of behavior is to strictly limit access to the network closets and server rooms. The next thing is to make available patch cables of varying length and colors. Predetermine which colors represent things like connections to Wi-Fi, printers, plotters and other peripheral devices. Each end if the patch cable should be labeled with numbers so it's easier trace. Once numbered the cables then are installed in numerical order and by length, use cable ties or velcro ties. This will be tedious but once complete troubleshooting issues will be much easier. Once the job is done your done. Failures can be most likely traced to hardware and not the cable itself.

@husher5142

Even then, pre-fab always looks like this. If you are willing to spend the extra $$ and time, patch on site. And the other thing with doing it onsite, is you do not need all the extra space to hold spare cables of varying lenghts. Just a couple boxes/spindles of 5e or 6e

Nice rooting great job

Just as important as, if not more important than an OCD cabling job like here is documentation of what is plugged into each switch port!

And now we need “1 year after” video too.

I can already feel the data flowing better

Fantastic!

Genial queda muy bien.

Cool. Now let's do it without service interruption (99% of real life cases)

I used to think thame reason cabinets became messy was because of lazy it guys, but ice discovered that this happens over time when on tight deadlines you just end up plugging in cables and leaving them where they lie because at the time you have to get something done that day. And now I realize it's not a simple job dressing the cables since you cant just plug random cables in into random ports since you have things like lag, vlans and smart ports that need to be taken into consideration. Not only that but documentation must be made as well for what goes where. It's simply a problem that you will run into on the job if you work in IT

thanks to virtualization nowadays, just live migrate the VM's to another rack and do 1 rack or a street at a time.

How about moving a server? Seems like the cables are too short to move the server out with the rails for maintenance.

searched for cable managments on small PC, saw this.

Assuming these are G6/7 DL380’s, I recall they have 2x 2-port onboard Network cards. The way you’ve cabled these servers appears to be port 1&2 to a network switch, port 3&4 to another network switch. I’ve experienced onboard card failures on these servers that would leave 1&2 or 3&4 down. If the corresponding network switch was also down, you’ve lost all connection. We used to run 1&3 to a switch, 2&4 to another switch instead.

@farooqishaq6974

5 жыл бұрын

On a DL server if you are aggregating network then 1&2 would become 1 pair of interface and 3&4 would become second pair. If cards are not aggregated then correct wiring for redundancy would be 1&3 and 2&4

So you need to unplug for any hardware change ? Any Cable Management Arms ?

Well it does looks amazing. Try pulling a server out. There isn't much slack in the cables.

Planted, 100%.

The real problem comes when you have to work with only a cable size and the short patch is 10cm, and your shortest cable is 1.5m!

I really want to learn this.

Great Asmr Video.

Do you guys have a coaching on how to organise or is this an ad of your services?

That's pretty and all but what happens when you need to pull out a server? You made the cables so short that the customer would have to disconnect everything first. Why not put cable management arms behind the servers?

Blyatiful

Wow the speed on this network must be so much faster now.

More please 🙏

How are those rapid rails going to work now?

cable management 101, make sure the cable length is appropriate for the run it needs to make cable management 102, if using a longer cable than apprpriate, make sure you have enough room to store the excess cable cable management 103, take time to make the cable run, and secure the cable along the run. so easy to go from that nice cabinet to the rats nest. add a cable here, new run there.. sure 2 cables aren't bad but do that 100 times and boom messy. getting the server up/running is what the customer/boss wants. nobody comes back in later to cleam up.

let see you slide one of those servers out :)

I wish there was a trade school for this kind of stuff

And I have trouble with my stereo cable management

And what was the price for that one server rack to be cleaned up? Parts only.

I've been in IT for 42 years now, but we used to call it communications computer systems back when I started. Your "after" work was the standard back in my military days. Why would someone consider having you un-screw their cabling? Additions, replacements, moves, and troubleshooting! And yes, it can be done without a total outage.

How long did that take to finish

My company has always done racks this way. We do it for serviceability but, it does look neat. Too many tie points and you have to take apart half your shit to re-route a cable though.

Yes, just let me shutdown an entire 42U rack full of mission critical equipment for the whole day. It looks like 14 servers, probably hosting 10 to 20 VMs each, so just shutdown around 200 VMs. I would be looking for a new job in the morning if I did that. If all the cables are exactly the correct length then you end up with a job looking like this. The problem is when you are using standard length cables that increment in length by 500mm (18"). It's also a problem when you need to join two bits of kit and need a 1Mtr cable but you only have 5Mtr ones in stock.

This is the job where being Obsessive compulsive pays off.
