 So we are here today. We have gathered here today for our dearly departed server Processor just processor. Yeah, I came in server angry not working doesn't turn on good news There's two processors, but now there's one and Gonna give a shout out to the folks the server monkey They were actually very helpful because we bought a warranty and the nice thing about the warranty is they overnight parts to you if you need them to so Overnight part has arrived servers back over here But you know as if I'm wasn't busy enough doing everything else this got take a little time out of your day for this good news Is all that you know boring disaster recovery planning things that I do of backing everything up religiously And off having another server to dump it all to and having a server to dump it all to We move everything over the other servers everything's running on backup server Well, we replace CPU in this server and so that's the project. We're doing today But it's just want to give a shout out to server monkey first on there now I had the shirt on yesterday. I know he had a server monkey shirt. He was singing her praises. You know He had their shirt on sport and swag The good news is this is a server we installed I think in October of last year October. Yeah, this is the dell R7 10 I blew the fans out, but they're really clean. I mean this thing is Pretty spotless. We try to keep the area clean. Yeah, so our area clean cleanliness is proven by the server You know, we don't have it in a perfectly sealed room, but it works pretty well Interesting though one nice thing about these Dell when you go into the enterprise servers like this like the R7 10 here I know it's an older model, but this applies to their newer models as well His ability for it to diagnose itself and tell you that it has an angry CPU kind of fatal system air then some playing with it turned into CPU one has an internal air Switching the CPU CPU one still has an internal air. Yeah So it didn't care what prop as long as this processor was in it be it slot one or two It still said CP one had an internal air, but without it. It works fine. Yeah, so we figure we take opportunity to make a video About this real quick It's not that exciting of a video. Sorry if you were looking for something more in-depth But this is the currently runs my Zen server and runs the virtual machines that we use here for like, you know In voice ninja and a few other tools we use in our wiki one act screen connect Yeah, so it's annoying but being able to pass the VMs over to the other machine means Everything's up and running. We still opened and operated a business like normal. That's the important part This is the downside though is when you bring your phone system on it is you know The moment that it goes down until you hit the restore button, which takes like 15 minutes restore HVM So it's like 15 minutes to get the phone system back up and I died on a weekend. It did die in a weekend Yeah, thank you for dying on a Sunday So that at least was helpful So it was really not too inconvenient for us. Oh, no, but uh, yeah No big deal. Good news is we actually had it back up and running Monday with only half the processors in there It's running Sunday. Yeah, we had a running Sunday technically with half the processors and we just we had yeah It's like a third of the RAM I didn't trust it and of course, you know the third of the Ram and I couldn't this also inhibited me doing some videos I wanted to get done because this also runs our lab for everything else So this is why it's been a couple days for a channel update that and I was out of town and running around in projects and now this Project that we're doing kind of after hours now finalizing and then I'll swap all the VMs back over to it tonight And it'll be happy, but I don't give a shit out to server monkey and This is weird. It's usually now processors. Yeah That's I figured it would have been Ram Ram blown mother board I've seen we have one power supply that we have sitting kind of out of it so that it doesn't complain Yeah, I didn't have roll through agenda power supplies hooked up because my mistake when I ordered only were one And I didn't configure it for two. So I just left it partially out So I had it ready but not hot swapped But now we just never turn anything off. So yeah So I figured maybe it was a dead power supply Now we learned something interesting though that middle fans different Anyways, we did learn something interesting When Steve wracked it back in with only one processor in there We were having all kinds of problems with the ice cuz I'm like man is boards going or something like you know We're just thinking the worst turns out when he pushed in the the SFC plus connector it wasn't clipped in all the way look I pushed on it But at some point. Yeah, I break things. Yeah, he didn't want to break it So he didn't push it in all the way now interesting thing with the ice because he connecting disconnecting disconnecting connecting It corrupted no VMs the VMs kept pausing waiting for their hard drive to come back to life Which is the ice because he connection to the free NAS and then they kept going I learned a lot about fault tolerance I've never had like that much faulty hybrid. I've had sudden disruptions You know we've run Zen server on other systems team for clients But I've never had one intermittently just in and out in and out in and out dropping connections and everything and all the VMs Recovered perfectly fine. My bad. Yeah, it's definitely more fault-tower than expected especially when you physically haven't plugged the cable in all the way and it just your 10 gig connections kind of drop in packets all over the place so Well, and then this dropped out completely because I was like staring at it going I don't understand what's wrong and then it just dropped completely and then I'm like, oh click I was pushing on it waiting to rip the card out honestly So so that's a that's at least a learning experience and it's if anything I love when these are learning experiences for any of this stuff here So I still like this r7 10. I got a hunt down. I seen a couple of them on craigslist I want just a spare parts one sitting around that somebody to do list as well So all right. Thanks. That's about it. Uh, this is just kind of an update video why we didn't do other videos more videos coming I got some here's an update on our updates update on our updates or lack of updates However, you want to look at it?
