Moving the cluster

Last Thursday I moved the cluster to computer center room. Of course with the help of my two nice friends, Gerolf and Christian. Reasons: our previous server room is too small and the cluster became too hot. That server room turned out as a sauna room :D. It was reasonable why the cluster became hot. The usage was increasing very highly. Almost all the time 100% of processors are used.

Look at the mess we have created!
The server room is pretty large, since it stores almost all the servers of the university. I put the cluster in the corner, beside our new-larger-cluster.
Everybody on the floor!!
This cluster is 10 times more difficult to assembly. The screws are not matched each other, the door is heavy, the rack is terribly terrible. But I made it! It is imperfect of course, but it is prefect in giving me some exercises. Now here it is, after assembling.
Putting them together
Of course beside our black cluster! Do you see those penguins?
