Alright - back from my work trip.
I went over and measured the wiring room and created a visio with my layout plan. What else would I do?
Computer Rack
This rack will have one or more GB network switches and associated patch panels.
Also, the computer rack will eventually hold the following yet to be built machines:
Main Server:
Processor: i7 processor
Memory: 16GB
Host OS: gentoo
This server will perform routing, firewall, transparent squid proxy with ad block, web serving, and will act as the VM server.
This server will contain the following virtual machine clients:
(1)
Function: Sage Server
OS: Windows XP
Memory: 1 to 2 GB
(2)
Function: Media Server (itunes server, tversity server, nuvo music port (if used))
OS: Windows XP
Memory: 3 GB
(3)
Function: CQC Server
OS: Windows XP
Memory: 2GB
Storage Server:
Processor: Used single or dual core. 1.5 to 2 GHz range.
Memory: 4GB
OS: Opensolaris
Storage: 3 or more 1TB drives in a raidz1 configuration.
Theater Rack
This rack will hold items used for television such as cable boxes, HD Homerun units, sage extenders that are controlled via IR distribution from upstairs.
When I build out the home theater it may contain those components or those components may be located closer to the theater.
Can 1
Can 1 will be 42 inches and will contain all lighting modules for ALC/OnQ
Can 2
Can 2 will be 42 inches and will contain HAI and associated accessories and boards
Can 3
Can 3 will contain any sort of coax distribution or other miscellaneous items.
Any comments on computer, theater or can plans?
Here are some more pictures of the room:
