Sugestions for a colocation equipment check-list
Does anyone have a list of criteria that is collected when a customer brings equipment into a colocation facility? Things may include make and model, number of power supplies, serial number, etc. Any comments on this type of operation are greatly appreciated.

On the paranoid side: 1. Case off: inventory internal hardware (in case they claim something is missing later) look for wireless adapters look for what might be antenna's that could be used for sniffing... look for bombs/explosives or things that might be triggered later.. 2. Lots of contact information and PH#'s. 3. A list of what is normally running on that server and what would be normal traffic like: just port 80 and 443? or ????? --meuon-- Music playing: techno 2 Unlimited - Twilight Zone (Club Mix).mp3
