Wish I was a  AH message boards Moderator!

I would put a damn end to all the stupid negative doom and gloom posts, replies and threads....

I'm tired of seeing the same crap for the last 19+ years

Knowing that only a 1/4 to 1/10th of the community actually reads/posts to the boards, the "doom and gloom" posters just keep on shoveling their same dung and slinging it whereever they can......yet all of them Are to self centered to see that they are not helping with there posts/replies

I love that Hitech has added the server setup that he has, but is it new, or did he just move it to his closet at home so he can close his office to cut over head?

HTC has been upgrading hardware over the last month
and we are in the process of replacing 8 servers.

Because of the upgrade this week
there will be a few brief outages (less then 20 mins)
this week.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

I built the room the room off my house this  summer. (I found out I hate laying tile) Needed it's own air condition plus security features.
Our previous server room was the same length but twice as wide.

The above is how you know some one has gone over the edge. In a thread posted to show how HTC is continuing AH development , a member posts false disparaging points of view that have already been stated (Some in the same thread) just to poo poo on HTC.

I often ask myself is there any advantage in letting these people remain on the BBS. The cutoff comes when they are no longer posting anything positive, and are only post when they want to vent a grievance.

I'm glad that all the servers are together now, unlike years back the game servers and website/bbs/ftp servers were in 2 different locations....(if I'm remembering right)

Remember one of the website/ftp servers went down and Skuzzy had to make the trip to install new HDs and basically had to build a lot of the websites (Home page, FTP, Trainers website, AH Events, etc) all from ground up....

Curious as to what temperatures HTC keeps the server room?

I've designed HVAC systems for both NC DOT and FL DOT, where they were using 34 to 40, 40" monitors and all the computers and servers were in the room behind the monitors (monitors were set into a curved wall with the front sealed off, to keep most of the heat in the server room)

These buildings were where they watched and operated the cameras all over the interstates, highways, etc...

Had to guarantee a constant 68 degrees year round...

I have multiple probe temp logging been debating what temp I will keep it at and where. Been monitory out put temp behind servers as well as input in front.
Input side runs about 10 deg cooler. But output side feeds the conditioner. Yesterday I bumped the temp up from 65 setting to 70 in the afternoon.


These temps are about 3 inches behind the computer bank.




The current temperature for Port 1 is 76.0 degrees Fahrenheit.
 Daily Minimum: 69.9
 Daily Maximum: 76.7
 Daily Average: 71.8

Hmm.....

I'm under the impression that you had a load calculation ran for the BTU output of the hardware, lights, space size....

Are you using a manual or programmable thermostat?

Looking at the data logs, you might want to consider a programmable thermostat to where you can drop the temperature setting something like 1/2 hour to an 1 hour before the temperature starts climb to cope with that 75/76 temp range

Just thinking out loud

Nice setup with the Temp probes & data logging  :aok

The temp doesn't vary. The min max does not change more the 1 deg , you see a margin simply because I changed it's base setting up 5 degs input temp to the CPU's is 65 deg with an output temp of 75.

Hitech:

Pardon me I dont know if this is a joke or not, but did you really move HTC to your home? If so, I have 2 questions.
1. how did you get the bandwith needed to run the game connected to a residence? I ask because here in FL the cable companies dont like to do that... They say the infrastructure is not able to accept it.
2. Do you have Hillary Clinton's emails? (her server was supposed to be in a closet)

Cool,  I can understand that.... I was slapping my  brain wondering why the temperature jump up to 75/76 then right after midnight it dropped and stayed steady......lol

That was about 1991/92?

I had (2) 300 baud modems bridged / chained together around 92, to get me 900 baud, back then
