      3 sites down this morning. Power, I need power.

      I have the power!

      But only because we support an equipment renting company who have lots of generators onhand. They had to hookup a generator at one of their stores today.

          @scotth Got power at all my sites, BUT wind blew the coax cable right off one of my offices so they're on backup Internet (Translation, go work at home why are you even IN the office) till Spectrum can reattach the cable.

                  I hope you have lifts and a proper tool set, that's a lot of work!

                    Yeah, that sounds interesting! Tell us more!

                    240U that at least 6 racks of gear. What do you do with the workloads running on it? Are shutting everything down during the move?

                    Are all the equipment in the racks getting pulled out and then rewired in the new location or are you moving complete racks?

                      Really hope you're wrapping up the current racks and moving them as units. Our Colo space is an 8x8 cage, so we built it out at the office and had it moved. Unracking 240U is INSANE.

                          @Pete-S all equipment was shutdown prior to us coming in. The customer simply needed muscle.

                          3 of the 12 racks are getting moved, but it was all unracked as some pieces were changing were they live.

                          Got it all completed by 1pm.

                          I just woke from a nap

                            We unracked and packed all moving equipment, as some of it was moving into colo while the rest was moving to new client facilities.

                            The biggest challenge was the rails from the early 2000's with their rather poor design, removing them was the most difficult.

                                      Avant browser (http://www.avantbrowser.com/) is good for this. We've had to use it a few times at my day job. Fair warning: The 90's called and wants their web site back.

                                            Seems to be for me.
