If you're building a datacenter probably not. Other than giving the remote hands some identifier and making them label the servers themselves. If you're at a conference you could get away with using masking tape and a sharpie. If you think it was time consuming applying the labels wait until you need to remove one. 2012/2/16 Randy Bush <randy@psg.com>
ok, this is horribly pragmatic, but it's real. yesterday i was in the westin playing rack and stack for five hours. an horrifyingly large amount of my time was spent trying to peel apart labels made on my portable brother label tape maker, yes peeling the backing from a little label so remote hands could easily confirm a server they were going to attack.
is there a trick? is there a (not expensive) different labeling machine or technique i should use?
