I want to run mysql on a mirrored SSD. Is there any recommended seller on ebay which sells 400gb drives?

Hello, I have a Supermicro X11SAT-F motherboard which has the following NICS LAN1, i210-AT LAN2 (shared with the IPMI port on X11SAT-F), i219LM Can I have LACP on LAN1/LAN2 plus IPMI (on a separate VLAN) on LAN2? Thanks

@i386, here the pictures of the rails with the server fully out.

@kapone Yes, the rack posts are 'U' shaped. Some more picture are here. My installation is like the middle rack in your picture, however there is one difference. In my case the outer rail is attached to the 'outer holes' of the U rack. In your picture you only have the rear end of the rail...

The rack depth is variable, but I have set it up as 27 inches.

Hello, My SC846 server doesnt go fully in the rack. It gets stuck after most of it has gone in. Here are some pictures, is there anything obvious which i am missing? Front side Rear side

It is a SC846 chassis and there is a P2000 GPU over it. The airflow isnt that great the chassis fans. But i have put a 120mm fan sitting on the PCIe cards and blowing air down. Any idea about the temperature limit of the NIC?

Hello, I have an X10Dri-t board which has a couple of Intel X540-AT2 NIC's. If nothing is plugged into the NIC the idle temperature is 55C (reported using ipmitool sdr). However, with cables into the NIC the temperature rises 83C, and with load in 90's. The motherboard starts registering health...

@BlueFox , I measured the connector widths for both these PSU. Th left connector measures 24mm, while the right one is 26mm on both the PSU. Are you sure about this? I opened the chassis and checked the PDU, and it is PDB-PT846-8824. Is it compatible with PWS-1K28P-SQ?

@BlueFox , It is the chassis i bought from you in May 2017. It came with PWS-1K21P-1R originally. Do you know what PDU it has? The server was seeing random reboots, so i was thinking of changing the PSU. Is PWS-1K28P-SQ not a replacement of PWS-1K21P-1R?

Hello, I have a Supermicro 4U chassis which uses the PWS-920P-SQ PSU. Can i replace it with a PWS-1K28P-SQ? Is the PDU compatible with this PSU? Thanks

I took the battery out and cold booted the server. Strangely, the VBAT volatge did not change.

I measured the voltage of the battery with a multimeter. It is higher than 3V. Not sure why IPMI is reporting a lower voltage.

Hello, I have a x10dri-t motherboard. ipmitool was showing an error for VBAT like so, VBAT | 1.54 Volts | nr I thought this was related to CMOS battery, so i replaced it with another battery. However, VBAT doesnt seem to have changed, VBAT | 1.51 Volts...

Hello, I want to list the disks in the SM-846 chassis which has a LSI SAS2008 HBA in IT mode. I tried sas2ircu but the disk shown in Slot #4 is incorrect. The disk is in Slot #1. What tool should i use for the correct order? # ./sas2ircu 0 DISPLAY LSI Corporation SAS2 IR Configuration...
