Not a lot of updates at the moment.  Everything has been running very smoothly, so no news is good news.  We're still working on finishing out the cold aisle containment end of things.  Like most projects, it's taking a bit longer than anticipated. In the meantime...

Here are a few more shots of the inside of our Atlanta data center.   This is some of the cooling piping that feeds one of our Liebert CRV in-row cooling devices.  These things provide a massing cooling boost to our existing setup.   This is a stack of roof pieces of our cold aisle...

The containment project is moving along rather nicely.  These doors (as well as some additional baffles and other hardware) will block off the cold aisles from the hot exhaust air at the back of each rack.  This will substantially increase cooling system efficiency.

^^What he said.  Always better to play it safe.  Whatever gain you may realize will be negated by the headache of dealing with any government entities.

I've got about 10 days here.  I always suspend when I'm not using it...  If I'm going to be away for a couple days I shut down everything.

Speaking of containment...  Assembly has begun.  FYI, the opaque part of the sliding door is just a protective film over the lexan/polycarbonate windows.

It should indeed look pretty slick.  It will be very functional, that's the only reason we're doing it.  Aesthetics, while important, take a back seat to function.

Engrish FTW!

We got our CRVs & PDD units switched on.  In other news, the bulk of the construction materials for our cold aisle containment installation arrived today.  That will be getting built this week...  We'll have some more pics as we go...

Nah, the PR only went out this week.  There was an internal announcement to customers that went out earlier.

Total Server Solutions today announced on Wednesday, that they have acquired Front Range Hosting, a leader in cloud hosting solutions and virtual private servers.  Total Server Solutions and Front Range Hosting will bring together their industry leading technologies  to bring customers more...

Rum is like dating a really hot girl who happens to be a complete psychopath.  Great one minute then the next she's throwing a flaming brick through your window.   That's the kinda relationship I have with rum.

Earlier in the week we had some engineers on site to do some HVAC studies to check that our plans for cold aisle containment were sound and that our equipment can easily handle everything.  The test went perfectly.   Getting our cold aisle containment in place will boost efficiency and have the...

In other news, we've redesigned the website of our parent brand Total Server Solutions.  Please feel free to check it out and let fly any feedback you've got :-)

I put up a lot of pics from the expansion project into an album over on our FB page.  Feel free to have a peek to see all the shots in one place. Check it out.

Our new UPS got powered up yesterday.  The power portion of this expansion is rolling along nicely.

The louvers for our new generator room are, at last, fully installed.  

Here's one more pic of the generator with the full insulation around the exhaust.  This thing really is a beast.  

Today's festivities involve load testing of the generator.  The small boxes you see are load banks.  Each one is capable of about a 100kW load.  So far, the generator is handling everything just fine :-)
