Not so crazy. Years ago I had some L shaped pieces of steel made that allowed nodes to slide in horizontally as you describe (and for the same reasons). It provided enough of a lip to support the node that was attached normally on the front. Actually I still have them in part of my server rack (in the closet in my home office). Every once and a while I may need to test a node or two and I just slide them in, no messing with rails or anything. >This is pretty much standard practice for test equipment racks here at JPL. >We've got boxes and boxes of angle stock all nicely drilled to hit the side >mounting rails of the racks. But you do have the "space between boxes" issue. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
