by Vasil KolevAnother week is gone… Not to get out of my mind, I had a project to do and which was almost finished yesterday, with the mounting of the machines and a few tests. The deployment in production will be most probably next week.
To set up 6 machines in 3 clusters with the software, network config, etc. turned out to take about 3-4 days, the mounting – about 3 hours (mostly because we had to drill extra holes in some mounting rails). There were some weird moments with the specific hardware that had to be used, with the old network configuration as we had to keep most of it (so we wouldn’t have to coordinate a change with 3-4 different companies), and with some specific requirements from some programmers, but nothing really special (at best it would’ve taken me a day less).
(I’ll tell which the project is in the CV, when it works for a while :) )
Monday I’m going back to the loony bin. Looks like there’s a lot of stuff that’s piled up, I’ll probably be catching up with it between the holidays (then the load should be less, anyway). Long live the work and the alcohol :)
