Running on a lower wattage power supply doesn't reduce stress on the components. That's not how electricity works. The current draw is determined by the resistance of the components (the voltages coming from the PSU are fixed). All you're doing is increasing stress on the lower watt PSU (which is fine as long too much current isn't being drawn). It's fine to pull some components CPU's, HD's, first tho. That makes sense. But whether you do it with a low or high watt PSU doesn't matter, as long as the PSU's wattage rating is sufficient. The only advantage to the lower-watt PSU's is a breaker or fuse might blow sooner, with the normal current being closer to its design limit, but you didn't say that.
This is pretty commonplace in IT. I've had brand new servers that I've pulled out of the box and had memory errors straight away; re-seat the offending stick, (I normally do all of them for good measure) and off we go. It doesn't matter how well padded the box, being jostled around in shipping is always enough to potentially knock something loose.
I used a pre loaded Solaris drive in the system as it didnt come with hard disks. I also left out password cracking the LOM because it would have revealed sensitive information.
Memory swap went well, no issues after that. For a short time after that video the machine was available publicly and allowed people to login with a guest account. Once it starts to get cold again, I will bring it back out for some exercise. I've got several videos I need to edit and upload, but my video editing efforts have been with several other projects so I've only done shorts and TikTok I also found a nice piece for my E3000 and have a graphics upgrade video planned.
@@коментатор-л4з these servers can be compared with Xeons of the same era. A modern Xeon is way more powerful not even a close comparison. There's a huge gap between Core duo/Core 2 Duo technology to Nehalem/Core i technology Intel jumped way ahead on that era. Nehalem and Nehalem ex was a amazing leap on x86 tech that took the RISC competition out.
I havent taken my exam yet. Though K0KKU and KD0CGF reside here with me. I've been planning to for a while and would like to do some field days as soon as I have my license.
"Branch prediction" init? Bizarre. That's normally not something you can turn on or off in a cpu. There's nothing to init; the CPU maintains the history tables itself.

holy balls of power
So beautiful. I really miss the old Sun Microsystem, they actually care about opensource and make good software and hardware
That’s why they failed to live.but they died with honour and that’s what matters the most.never changed it’s bottomline.
i love these old machines seeing them running make me smile its much better to see them working then sitting in a dump
It's is the BEST company where I worked.... I loved it and its employees (and colleagues, of course!!)
i wish sun wouldnt have sold to oracle,who doesnt love purple servers running unix and being all sexy.
I love these machines. I've run quite a lot of Sun equipment in my career and it's always been rock solid and scalable.
i think who ever owned this before you was a Futurama fan... hehe. Hedonism Bot during initial boot on plasma monitor as hostname
Very like what you do; vw van restoration, playing with sun machine!
Installed lots these servers and Sun cluster for China mobile. they were super heavy and hot . 15:55 these are dual layer of memory chips.
awesome, someone saving those machines instead of letting them sit in the trash
Great video!!!! I used to support this type of hardware back in the days
Nice to get some sun this time of year 👍

Ah, UltraSPARC. A classic case of doing the most humanly possible at the time, in the least amount of space.
Memory: **faults**
The same memory: i guess i just work then

hedonismbot.... fitting
well, I see Oracle and copyrights from 2013 at 8:27, so somebody definitely run it in the last 10 years.

Very nice video! Thanks!
HedonismBot... Haha amazing.
That. Was. Awesome!!!!
Is there an update video coming to show if the memory swap worked? A Sun classic piece of hardware

@@DoogieLabs with what modern xeons it's possible to compare with perfomance?

@@foca2002 but I have sun type 7 keyboard, amd its real nice )))
I was allow to work on a Sun E10k Super Server back around year 2000.
Want a onyx system one day.. i know its sgi but its still cool
I thought you couldn't post pr0n on youtube :P Also whats your callsign?

@@DoogieLabs okay awesome stuff. Good luck!
the tests take forever to complete

'hey what'd you do with that server we just bought'
Uhhh
mine some bitcoins with it?
I have one I just got dump on me lol
