Well, I have all the equipment, power cords and Ethernet cords.
I am waiting on some Fibre channel cables that should arrive by Tuesday at the
latest. I purchased a WiFi Ethernet switch so I can connect to the system form
my loft office without having to go all the way downstars. I salvaged my KVM
switch and cables along with the power cords, Ethernet switches and touchpad
keyboard and monitor from my old lab. Should get the system mostly wired and
cables on Friday night and be able to start loading the OS on Monday with any
luck, then begins the joy of loading Oracle12c! I have a line on a couple of
FusionIO 190 gb cards I made an offer on them, we will see if they will give
them up. I offered $175 apiece for them since I have no idea how many PE cycles
they have on them. I figure to use the FusionIO cards as flash cache for the
RAC instances since it won’t be shared storage.
I
am at the Atlantsa airport waiting on a flight to Poughkeepsie where I will be
helping on a proof of concept tomorrow, it is about boarding time so I will
keep this entry short.
