Specs
- 24GB fully buffered DDR2 (4x4GB and 4x2GB) Max is 32GB or 64GB for gen III
- iDRAC @ [1]
- CPU 2x X5450 Xeon 3GHz (4 cores each)
- HDDs SAS 3x146GB and 3x73GB (264GB logical drive in OS)
- 2 onboard network ports and 2x2 ports on cards. First port of one of the cards is currently connected (eth3).
OS

Network Layout
nurds-sw-04 port 12 set up to accept VLAN tagged packets. eth2 connected to sw-04 port 23 from upper NIC eth3 connected to sw-04 port 12 from upper NIC eth4 connected to sw-08 port 23 from lower NIC eth5 connected to sw-08 port 24 from lower NIC bond0 set up but doing nothing on eth[0,1] bond1 set active-backup on eth[3,4] (cross-card, primary upper) bond2 set active-backup on eth[5,2] (cross-card, primary lower) vmbr0 providing management console on VLAN1, bridging bond2 interface. This is for the NFS connections to the storage. vmbr7 connected to VLAN7, bridging bond1.7 interface (i.e. tagging packets as VLAN7). vmbr8 connected to VLAN8, bridging bond1.8 interface (i.e. tagging packets as VLAN8). vmbr7 and vmbr8 available for VM/container binding, with no management interface connection.
Issues
- Wake on LAN on connected NIC does't seem to work. I could not find the appropriate option in the BIOS
- Console redirection in DRAC interface won't work with tried browsers and java
Todo
- DRAC email alerts
- Find out which generation server this is
- Fix NFS mounts
- Logins through LDAP
- Add another network interface to the bond0 for failover (on another switch)
- Separate network interfaces for storage traffic?
- move stuff from Precious to here (https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Convert_OpenVZ_to_LXC)
