I meant the back of the equipment, but you already answered (from the cold room).

Look what my kids bought me for father's day! I love those little rascals, as though they were real.

I decided to use a console instead of IPMI. Takes up less space, as it folds to 1U. It works, perfectly.

Thanks, I added that to my next shopping trip at Amazon! :D  I tried a 1u and 2u shelf, and had the same sag issue.  

 

I use RDP to access my server.  It also has IPMI which is quite nice.  There is a rare occassion that it gets stuck booting and I need to hook up a monitor to see what's going on, but that's maybe once every 6 months.

My rack is 6ft from my TV, so I don't use RDP :D

Nice.

 

I finally found a cheap used rack locally. I will be seeing to a rack setup soon and add to the pics here.

Really? Nooooo... It can't be. It would need to be bigger, surely?

Really like all the server racks on here! Figured I'd share ours even if it's not all that pretty.

A  little update with the Unifi router installed. 

 

Do I need a bigger rack?

Here's my "new" Emby setup migrated from Plex.  There's more on there than just Emby obviously ;).  Pic is about a year old, I've since switched from DAC's to optics on the 10Gb switch.  Maybe I'll take a new udpated pic when my condo renovation is complete in a month.

Its still a work in progress but finally started this weekend. Its still a mess and I need to get the 1u cable management things to clean it up. 

 

Top panel and the amp are whole house audio.

 

Middle panel is living room home theater. it has open slots to upgrade to 7.1 sound and also upgrading to 6 from 4 zones on the house audio.

 

When I can make my unraid server smaller, the 2nd half will have a UPS, network patch panel and my unifi switch.

 

First picture is before and others are now.

You got that tidied up, a bit :D

 

I envy you the fun you're having while upgrading. I've hit the point of diminishing returns. I keep trying to think of ways to improve performance.

@@Spaceboy has just started building his pfSense box.

 

He may well have finished it.
