    Talking silly server names

    It look like x10 servers are named after vodka brands.
    but to use "Lotus" ?.
    Question: are you on Lotus, Ans: no, don't use Notes.:nuts:

    BTW At my first job the outgoing female tech had named every machine.
    Percy the printer.
    Sid the stacker.
    Derick the decollator.

    Also seen two servers one called kerr and wang. The CEO found it funny and funnier that the IT dept manager did not get it.

    Maybe its the vodka they used to celebrate the purchase of a new server. :hsdance:

    Lotus refers to many things: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus
    Plus it sounds cool...

    If anything, Corey is most likely the person who made up those names, and he decided to name them after Vodkas; probably because he likes Vodkas anyways :P

    My signature likes cookies! Do you? :D

    I don't think it is funny. I think it is more of unique way to name servers :]

    But in a real world application, sticking to realistic names is better. (3v-dc2, 3v-fs1, etc.)
