So what's the new run book for starting your skiffs in other countries? Hydrometer readings in the chassis before applying power?
Great storytelling by the way very gripping. I was enthralled the entire time
Most important servers go on top (we can run relatively fine without one of them, but with reduced capacity, as long as the cluster primaries work) and run the AC for longer during mobilization (a full day and overnight) Also, this utility hatch had a broken gasket and loads of bolts missing. This has now been fixed to make sure the container is reasonably air tight.
I've also considered some sort of heater in the bottom of the rack to prevent condensation during the initial AC cycle.
If you had been able to get the humidity down, before applying power, do you think the servers would have been okay?
Maybe. It could be that the damage was already done, as the container spent 6 month being slow shipped around the world. That utility hatch was basically venting in sea breeze continuously during transit.
