RandalSchwartz: I suspect he tries to take a day off here and there.
is there a question, or are you waiting for support?

ballen: heh no Randal...
I have a general data center planning question
mainly in this day and age how dense should I plan racks
as far as wattage
RandalSchwartz: ahh, no idea
I'm merely a consumer, not a rack guy
ballen: planning for ~23 racks in 22.5" X 30" space
' not "
guestimating an average of 5.7kW == shat ton of power
how ever its easy enough to have 23kW racks
RandalSchwartz: yeah 22 by 30 inches is a bit small :)
ballen: :-)
quantum computing
RandalSchwartz: that's just like Spinal Tap!
ballen: sigh.... its always fun getting thrown into a new field
RandalSchwartz: as long as the field has pretty flowers, no worry
ballen: pretty flowers and very large kW #'s and similarly large cooling numbers
I'm thinking its safe to run redundant 20A 208v 3Ph to each rack
then 35A to a subet
RandalSchwartz: you can arc-weld with that. :)
ballen: I have a rack right now thats rated todo 13kW
which would need both of those circuits
if it was fully loaded
which is the big question
what is the fudge factor in actual wattage of servers vs what their spec sheet says
RandalSchwartz: mmmm. fudge. :)

mattx86: are there still plans to move away from mzima/packetexchange?
I just realized that I get to arpnetworks via level3 -> packetexchange (over ipv4)
I like level3 so much because they always seem to have problems
don't* like
heh
RandalSchwartz: so much better than the old level2 though
mattx86: I'm sure it is :p
RandalSchwartz: and level1? don't even talk about them!
mattx86: there is a level1 actually :)
maybe it's level-one, but they make consumer wireless routers and things i believe
RandalSchwartz: consumers don't need to be routed. :)
mattx86: aw :)
