Finally racked my lab - Lemmy.ca

Finally got around to racking up my lab! (Still needs wiring up, but that’s tomorrows problem) Top to bottom: * 1u PDU * 1u cable management * 1u custom super micro pfsense build * 1u tplink jetstream. 24x1Gbe 4x SFP * 1u cable management * 2u patch panel * 4u custom super micro server * A shelf with a UPS and a gaming rig (ryzen with a 1070ti) Going to run rancher harvester + rancher vm + k8s cluster. Usual media stack, nextcloud, pihole, etc etc. Mostly just want a cluster to play with and harvester seems fun!

Trying to cross post, not sure if I’m doing it right. Apologies if I’m breaking any rules!

    Looks pretty nice. I’m in the process of doing the same. One bit of annoyance is that I have a half length cabinet but one of my servers is full length.

      There might be a rail kit that can extend out the back. It’d be a little labgore but it would work

        So here’s another homelab sin I committed… I dont use rails. I stead I buy these adjustable universal shelves that get installed like rails. Why? Because all my servers are second hand and require proprietary mounting rails. The dell server rails are way more expensive than they need to be haha

          That’s what I do too. The 4u is on a set like that. I didn’t know it was a sin!
