I was talking to my professor after class with another class mate Thursday. We BSed for a while about random computer related things. So while talking, some how we ended up finding our way to the main datacenter in the college. If you did not already know, I go to SCCC or for the long island noobs, Suffolk County Community College. Anyway, he ended up bringing us into the datacenter. I really do not know how he trusted us to go in there. I wish i got to take pictures but I ended up forgetting to bring it. Than again, I did not know I was anyway. I brought my camera this time just incase.
You really have to see what hardware this college has. From my memory, they have an IBM Z-Series Mainframe, two of the old IBM terminal system which very soon they are going to replace, and a full rack of Cisco VoIP servers that run every phone on this campus. That’s not all though. It also had three or four racks of HP DL360 servers, another rack for the data storage, another rack with a SAN with 14tb of space, and two racks of just the routers and wireless AP servers.
Wow, that was alot of typing.
Anywho, if I get pictures of this awesome room, I will upload them for everyone to check out.
