My Cobalt collection is growing...


Yes! I have a new Cobalt server. Really it's a rebranded Intel server but it has a nice blue face at front. It's (or she is) a Cobalt LX50. One of the first models of this series because later the LX50 lost the Cobalt brand from the front a was named only as Sun LX50.


At the beginning it was shipped with Sun Linux 5 but can run Linux, Solaris X86 or Windows. I'm thinking it will be a good server for BlueOnyx. I powered up this afternoon and I'm surprised with it's noise. It's loud but a lot less than my other 1U servers (V120, GigaByte, etc.). Maybe it has regulable fans.

This weekend I expect to have this machine running with BlueOnyx. Let's see...
