Looks like worker have more than one job to do, so he cant waste all time and money on nice rack managment. Basicly job is not paying enought. Spacing between racks to avoid heating issues. No matters how you put 1u or 2u, its same dimensions between holes. |1cm|2cm|1cm| = |2cm|1cm|1cm|. Its matters only when size is 1,5u
Everyone have more stuff to do than installing hardware on a rack, but since you only do it once you should at least do it right the first time. Professionalism is on the small details.
1RU = 1.75 inches. There is less space between every 3rd hole. It's clearly easy to see the differences. The presenter makes some very good points. It doesn't take extra time to mount something in the correct holes (a.k.a. RU a.k.a. Rack Unit). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/19-inch_rack#/media/File:Server_rack_rail_dimensions.svg From a contractors installation point of view... Yes, we all know that companies usually competitively bid installs. A lot of the time, you get what you pay for. And most of us understand there usually isn't enough time to do things 100% how you'd like it done. To install a 1RU shelf, by itself, your company might get 4hrs to do the work if they're lucky. That means you have 4hrs to assess the job, inventory, unbox, stage materials, get your tools organized and/or taken out, and install things. Problem tends to be nobody factors in some of that time it's going to take... site access, unboxing, assess the job, discussing things with your contact on site, clean-up at the end of your install/day. All the little things add up. But none of that is an excuse to mount things incorrectly.
