Recall couple months ago I tried to get my son a server rack at his dorm.
But I could not get wifi working on the router I repurposed because it did not support WPA enterpise.
Today I added a travel router that should support it
It is that little device I had on top.
Took longer then I expected to set this up, had problems with the servers and my crash case… crashed.
Got another monitor and keyboard and finished the job.
Hoping this works.

Had today off and I was able to work a bit on my server room. I have come to the conclusion that it is kind of done. Maybe there is some dusting but for the most part it is clean and now I can do some minor clean up things like getting correct length cables.
Most of the UPS have fresh batteries and I have some on order.
Now is the fun part where I can add things and make it look cool, in short I did a big cleanup and now time to enhance and regrow.

Superbowl weekend, It is Thursday but I got tomorrow off which is good because I got a slew of things to do before Sunday.
I really want to get most of my stuff done by Saturday so I can enjoy Sunday.

Ready for the big game, need to figure out the snacks menu, just me so I can go crazy.
Also want to a casino and placed various prop bets, a total of 140.
Then immediately won 139 and change on slots. If I win any of the various bets I will be ahead.

Took the first step and trying to get UPS battery replacements today, long overdue.
This is me trying to be proactive with battery replacements. Doing 3 years for off brand and 5 years for APC branded ones.
Another thing that broke today was the main light in my room. Currently working just with lamps. Too dark for me.
It is 11:04PM as I post, gonna walk late and get my mile.
If I get back in time I will post update.

Office is coming along, I removed a bunch of old wires and gear to make things nicer. Stuff was mostly labeled, but some weren’t.
I started the day with a reorg of some switches.
I have come to the realization some of this needs to probably be redone. I got rid of stuff, I don’t need that many ports.
Lot of crawling and pulling wires.
Ordered some UPS batteries, going to see if I can leverage some UPS for low end stuff.

Last day of the month, some decent accomplishments.
Finally started working on the server room
Still working on it, ran out of time
Also got my new filament dryer installed. We will see how it works.
A lot of more work left in the server room but got a lot done.
As a final note, today concludes the outdoor 1 mile a day challenge. Got it done.

My weekend plans have a lot to do with storage.
Adding an LSE SAS9300-16i with an adapter to allow an external 8 drives.
But before that, I need move extents in a logical volume group to a larger physical disk.
Then I need to clean up the server room to prep the arrival of my 10TB drives. I think I got most of them, but the rest are enroute.
I should have most disks before next weekend.
Because next weekend I am going to finalize the new NAS.
Oh also next weekend

Normally I would have a 3 day weekend, but I was asked to fix a problem at work and it will span till tomorrow.
But I will take it, because there is no Seahawks game this weekend and I was given next Friday off for the Superb Owl LX.
Another benefit I am going to start reorganizing my server room and I know I will need cables and stuff.
Speaking of the big game, which our Seahawks will be in, I have 3D printed some Seahawks trinkets, wild that someone is selling pretty much the same thing.
