Growth of POS != Death of ATM While major hardware vendors continue to crank out hardware and software support, and while large deployments continue, it might not be fair to assume it resting in peace or pieces..

Rack Hardware to demise sections of existing cabinets
by Chris Davies 29 Mar '06

29 Mar '06

I've been searching the net for a solution to demise cabinets on 1/4, 1/2 or 1/3 boundaries. Since I'm in a facility that provides Chatsworth M-Series cabinets, and they won't allow me to put on the 'tri-door' kit (which doesn't demise the sections anyhow), has anyone seen workable door hardware to retrofit a cabinet? I found a few security screens that mount using existing mount-holes, but, those solutions don't allow removing the units inside without removing the unit. They provide front panel access, but, if a piece of equipment needs to be removed, the entire door assembly needs to be removed. This also doesn't demise the space to separate the individual tenants. Before I have a run of these things made by a machine shop, has anyone seen such a device? Replies off-list and I'll summarize. Thanks.

Mildly OT: NEMA plug guide for dummies
by Olsen, Jason 29 Mar '06

29 Mar '06

So I have a large amount of 802.3af gear going out to sites for new installs and upgrades, which means a lot of new electrical service is being pulled into closets. Despite my best efforts it seems the standard IT-Facilities miscommunications are occuring with the building folks at these sites, the wiring is being done wrong and I'm left to clean up the mess. What's vexed me the most about this is that many of our "remote hands" have no electrical experience at all so they're completely unable to determine the types of plugs and receptacles they're dealing with. I'm left with descriptions that are, I kid you not, as helpful as "the twisty plug with the bent part." If somebody can't tell me if the receptacle is L6-15 or L5-15 I'm going to have a very difficult time sorting this all out and getting the appropriate wiring (re)done. So I'm wondering, has anybody found a good online resource (or a printed resource I can go pick up somewhere) that has illustrations of the different plugs and receptacles found in the wild? It would help me greatly if I could just point somebody to a PDF online somewhere and say "Go to this website, find the receptacle that looks like what has been installed in your switch closet and read the number back to me." I found one at GeneratorJoe.net and while it'll do in a pinch, it's sorta low-quality and I'd like something better.

Problem with IANA blackhole servers
by Sebastian Wiesinger 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

Hello, I'm having a problem with the IANA blackhole DNS-Servers resolving RFC1918 IPs. Normally I'm getting a NXDOMAIN reply and this is reported back to the client. With one resolver we're getting SERVFAIL for every query instead of NXDOMAIN. Example: Resolver 1 (working): # dig @192.175.48.42 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa PTR ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> @192.175.48.42 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa PTR ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 50669 ;; flags: qr aa rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: 168.192.in-addr.arpa. 300 IN SOA prisoner.iana.org. hostmaster.root-servers.org. 2004051800 1800 900 604800 300 ;; Query time: 11 msec ;; SERVER: 192.175.48.42#53(192.175.48.42) ;; WHEN: Tue Mar 28 13:29:57 2006 ;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 119 Resolver 2 (failing): # dig @192.175.48.42 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa PTR ; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> @192.175.48.42 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa PTR ;; global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 62187 ;; flags: qr rd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR ;; Query time: 16 msec ;; SERVER: 192.175.48.42#53(192.175.48.42) ;; WHEN: Tue Mar 28 13:21:02 2006 ;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 42 So every request to resolve RFC1918 IPs with resolver #2 times out and takes a long time to finish. I think the reason is one of the anycast servers acting abnormal. A trace from resolver 2 points to p80.net as provider: [..] 4 ge0-0-pr1.AMS.router.colt.net (212.74.66.146) 14.100 ms 14.122 ms 14.096 ms 5 cr1.nl.p80.net (195.69.145.52) 14.839 ms 14.731 ms 14.123 ms 6 blackhole-2.iana.org (192.175.48.42) 14.703 ms 15.020 ms 14.861 ms Perhaps someone on this list has a shortcut to get the server back to normal again?
