Hi John No doom and gloom.
It's in a purpose built workshop/computer room that I have; 42U Rack, cross draft cooling which is sufficient and 32AMP Power into the PDU’s. The equipment is housed in the 42U Rack along with a variety of other machines such as Sun Enterprise 4000 and a 30 CPU Transputer Cluster. None of it runs 24/7 and not all of it is on at the same time, mainly because of the cost of power :-/ Yeah the Tesla 1070’s scream like a banshee….. I am planning on running it as power on, on demand setup, which I already do through some HP iLo and APC PDU Scripts that I have for these machines. Until recently I have been running some of them as a vSphere cluster and others as standalone CUDA machines. So that’s one vote for OpenHPC.
