I apologize for not providing a link. (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altix) I am not quickly finding specs.

These were SGI Altix systems before HP bought SGI. Tightly integrated clusters such that they operated as a single NUMA space. They are/were often used to host databases with massive shared memory.

The smaller systems had lower numbers, and older had numerically lower numbers. A UV 1000 wad two models previous to the UV 3000. The UV 100 was same generation as 1000, but smaller.

If I recall correctly, the UV 100 had 3 TiB RAM. These are very old now, and only an example. The UV 3000 had way more RAM and CPUs.

A modern single non-UV server maxed out can hit over 1 TiB (I have not spected one in a while). Expect the single server to cost over $20K, anything less means one is in the wrong section of the store.

Edit: clarifying a point

Edit2: Just checked and a single server can hit 3 TiB RAM with 128 Cores for around $53K. Put that $53K in comparison with employee time for any other solution.

A common approach is something like a UV 3000.

Likely not what you want, but it is important to remember that there are ways to solve it with money.

Interesting. I have never noticed these. Have any names? I only have filtering after things are in the “inbox”.

Good idea about the online Outlook. I forgot about that.

I have filtering, but those all happen after the mail is in the Inbox. I get a quarter second of crazy emails and previews and things moving, then they are gone. (Outlook sucks.)

I don’t even want to see that shit.

I love it. More stable than many things. Preseeds for PXE.

I don’t have to fuss on my fun systems.

Work systems are different. Works great when it is a nice fit. Use mostly RHEL family there, and dislike the rolling upgrades. (Breaking changes between “minor” version changes. Rarely an issue on Debian.)

There are inventory programs, many of them, that will handle keeping system information updated.

I am posting to say that I tend to set the IPs to match with a known offset.
For example:
192.168.5.12 is the host.
192.168.105.12 is the BMC.

A wiki is the great for documentation of use, links, and files.

Is tftp used for anything other than booting disk images?

Just my thinking. Of course, the Feds had inside information and would likely have used a different tactic.

Great for stopping random laptop thiefs from getting your data when you are working on a coffee shop.
