Note that these are all links and prices that I paid for at the time.</p> <p>Let’s start with compute. I will list a table here of the servers.</p> <h2 id="note-this-bom-is-outdated-and-is-yet-to-be-updated-pending-upgrades-that-im-saving-up-for-however-since-the-cost-is-about-1800-euros-this-will-take-a-while-and-i-may-have-to-decommission-my-current-lab-as-you-see-below-to-be-able-to-save-that-together-within-any-reasonable-timeframe">NOTE: This BoM is outdated and is yet to be updated pending upgrades that I'm saving up for. However since the cost is about 1800 euros this will take a while and I may have to decommission my current lab as you see below to be able to save that together within any reasonable timeframe</h2> <p>ESXi1:</p>https://blog.michellewayz.com/vmware-purple-screen-of-death-troubleshooting-for-random-crashes-with-disk-errors-in-the-homelab/Thu, 04 Jun 2020 21:18:52 +0000https://blog.michellewayz.com/vmware-purple-screen-of-death-troubleshooting-for-random-crashes-with-disk-errors-in-the-homelab/ <p>Hi everyone,</p> <p>Time for a new blog post about the adventure I’ve been having for the past two days.</p> <p>On June 2nd, my server, a DL380G6 started to suddenly take-off. The fans were roaring at 70%, and the temperature sensor near the PCI Riser was showing 110 C. Of course this is not supposed to happen, in this blog post, I will take you through my experience of troubleshooting this and hopefully this can help you.</p>
