We have cooling!
The first server has been installed:
We also have a server rack in one of the upstairs collection rooms. We just finished moving a compute cluster that performs phylogenetic analysis from our old building into this new server rack.
Unfortunately we ran into a problem. It seems that the network cabling contractors ran their certification tests before they finished labeling the back of the patch panels. Some of the ports of our brand new installation do not work! This has been fairly discouraging, but the issue should be resolved soon.
Here you can see our cable management efforts. This is a nice, clean installation that will be easy to maintain over time.
