Meh, this isn’t what is seems. OP is just being cute. My guess is that he is imaging these hosts from a WDS server or similar. I’ve done deployments that mimic this setup exactly (though considerably more neatly), and its very typical to misconstrue what is actually happening at a glance.
I run Ai bots that require graphics
perhaps some context here would help?
replace them with on box = problems solved
I would suggest to get a rack with shelves, rack mountable PDU strips, and a rack mountable switch.
Why do you have 17 mini pc? What are you doing with them?
Mount the mini PC into shelves inside a server cabinet.
Patch panels for shorter and clean Ethernet cable runs.
Server rack mount power supply, instead of bricks plugged into power strips.
What is going on in this picture? What devices are there and what are they doing?
I was up against this last year, 130 Lenovo m75Q’s, how to fit 130 into a 42u rack including powerbricks. Solution was 3d printing.
Any pics regarding this if you would share?
Other than mounting the switch above and running the network cables up the rear there doesn’t seem to be a easy solution
I only have a passing interest in homelab stuff, but I just wanted to say that I got really excited because I thought those were a bunch of PS2s. Thought this was gonna be some weird FFXI or Battlefront LAN system.
Well at least all do run some graphics so there is some truth close to that
Serious question what is this for…
I run certain AI bots that require integrated cpu graphics to run 24/7
What are you running here?
AI bots that use integrated graphics
Get a cheap UCS or super micro server on eBay. You can get a stupid number of cores and RAM for just about nothing, then you have one box, and altogether probably a LOT less power draw
What about a bunch of poe power splitters and a poe switch ?
what is the use case for this?
Looks great now.
