This is what happens when you let the NM and Junior Tech install network equipment!

[twin--turbo]

I can no longer call myself the network manager, although I manage the network more than anyone else. I am now mearly Senior Tech..

 

Anyway

 

I sent our NM with a Firebox to our sister site for installation.

 

After sourcing some captive nuts, NM + Junior Network Tech set about the Physical install.

 

 

:doh:

Nice; I admire their professionalism.

[Michael]

Nothing wrong with that, it fits lmao Is it TFI Friday?

[X-13]

Ah, you ordered the Austrailian version.

 

It's a common mistake.

[mossj88]

Why's the photo upside down?

[pete]

Powered off, no network connectivity and upside down.

 

They don't do things by halves, do they?

[elsiegee40]

Is this another example of that Intel rotate thingy... Ctrl-Alt-Arrow?

[X-13]

They don't do things by halves, do they?

 

If you're going to do it wrong, do it wrong properly.

[tech_guy]

 

Says it all really....

[nicholab]

Do they do yet that there is a problem?

[Mcshammer_dj]

australian install?

[Ric_]

They also forgot to tidy the cables in the rack.

[Mcshammer_dj]

Tell them what they have done and suggest that to tidy the cabinet up they will need to re-rack the server the same way........

A Firebox is installed up-side-down in a network cab.

[SYNACK]

It's also only held in by three cage bolts. Quality, are you sure they were not consultants in a previous life.

Yeh, I like that. It's like a full stop defining the end of a sentence.

Lol

[Gibson335]

Give them a break - getting it installed at all whilst suspended by their legs from the ceiling is to be applauded.

[witch]

Now following on from another thread..

You thought they had enough common sense between them to install it the right way up with the right number of bolts, didnt you?

Did you stop them from googling the issue

[Dos_Box]

Oh, and do they know this thread exists?

[twin--turbo]

Oh, and do they know this thread exists?

 

Not yet

 

They were so impressed with their failure it's their picture

[broc]

Give them a label maker to print out some new labels to cover up the inverted text.... nobody will know.....

[CHR1S]

Surely its a joke, no one is that dim? right?
