Cool. For the cert or just to learn?
Both. I work in almost completely Windows environment, so the skills I'll inevitably pick up will be useful -- and I have a chance to earn a credential at the end. I'll eventually start on the RedHat path, but after some consideration, I figured the Windows path will be more beneficial at this time.
At this time, beneficial how? That you'll use it at your current job and they will give you raises? If not, a new place with higher pay doing the same thing? If not, then I'd do what it is you really want.
Closing knowledge gaps (some of which I might not even be aware) = beneficial for me.

@coliver recommended www.gns3.com to me today. It allows you to create a virtual network to test various types of hardware. Great learning tool for anyone interested.

Happy Friday ML peeps!

Ha. I feel your pain. Nothing like coming to work and finding your Server room running at 88 degrees and temperature alarms being emailed out to you ever 5 minutes. (It's normally closer to 75 degrees).

Oh shit! thats not good for the server at all...
I had a site turn off live Credit Card processing- on October 7th.
Just turned it back on line yesterday- I was the one who took the call on the 7th and it was working properly when I finished the call.
The owner called me directly ( hes a drinking buddy) and now im scrambling to make sure he gets his money. -

At least 88 is well within server parameters.

Not usually. IBM and Intel recommend optimum for most environments to be closer to 90. Of course if your cooling is free (you live in Iceland), you don't want to be HEATING it to a higher temp. But paying to keep it below 90 is for the humans, not the equipment.
-
The thing you need to avoid is temperature fluctuations, that's what kills Winchester drives. You want a rock steady tempt, whether it is 60 or 95. And you need a good humidity to keep water from forming, and to avoid static build up. Beyond that, all you care is that it is stable.
Equipment prefers cooler, but only slightly. Cooling is expensive and the cost to cool is normally greater than the value it provides below around 90 degrees.

The room was 88 degrees. The servers were throwing temperature warnings at us. They didn't quite make it to the panic level, but it was right close. Stuff here starts shutting down when the room gets to 95.

Yeah. We keep this room ~75.... our "oh crap!" alarms are at 85, and our "crap just hit the fan" alarm is 95, lol.
