At this point I’m just tired of the acronym salad we all tend to deal with at work
“Wait, was I supposed to bounce CDBWINPROD02 or DBCWINPROD02?”
Figured if I had a choice I would use more “human” names that allow the servers to have more of a “personality”
Perse for example has been having an issue with it’s bios and it’s been spending quite a lot of time in the underworld LOL
Not to butt in into your conversation, just wanted to drop that me and my colleagues use what we call the “clone cars” method to combat our company’s naming scheme
So for example we dubbed CAPROD01 “Cappy” NASPROD01 became “Nasir” LTPDEV02 became “Luigi” (because he’s always number 2)
Of course in written communication we use the full name (which is much less of an inconvenience) and we always double check in conversation or spell out full names before doing anything critical
