You want a nice server for 33C3? You need a playground for experimental server setups? You just need much RAM for a short time? Come to us, we have an IBM Bladecenter H with about 500 GB of RAM and over 100 physical CPU cores. Just ask at the Geheimorganisation Assembly (located somewhere in Hall 4) for YoloVPS or use our web service YoloCloud to create and manage virtual machines.

Use the token Geheimorganisation.

Hardware setup

Our setup consists of two components: The Bedouine (beduine is it's hostname), which controls the whole setup, and the IBM Bladecenter H, which provides bare-metal hardware for virtual machines. The Bedouine is rather uninteresting, because it is just a host which runs YoloCloud and is used to administer the whole setup.

We are running the following configuration on the Bladecenter:

  • IBM Bladecenter H with advanced cooling fans
  • Two Nortel 1Gb/10Gb uplink switches
  • Twelve IBM HS22 blades with 40-60GB and 8-12 physical CPU cores (Intel Nehalem)
  • Some old SAS hard drives
  • A nice hacked powercord
