SGI: hinv

Octane2, 2x600MHz R14K, 4GB, V12+DCD, DM5, DM2, PCI cage

Started life as a 2x400MHz system, but the frontplate and the system board gave up. Now back from the dead, and with a faster CPU as well :)

This used to be a Discreet Flame system, maybe it will be back as such. I added the DIVO, wonder if Flame picks it up.
I removed the FC XIO card in slot 'D' because I don't like 'fast fan' all that much. I'll probably replace the SCSI card in the PCI cage with something faster and/or add a PCI FC card instead. The IOC3 can be replaced with a gigabit board. Also has a Digi ClassicBoard PCI 4port serial board which shows up as "PCI card, bus 0, slot 2, Vendor 0x114f, Device 0x4"

it is kinda loud like this because the fully populated graphics carier unleashes 'fastfan' :oops:
I'll probably get rid of the second (XIO) dual FC board and only use the dual 2GBit QLA2342 in the PCI cage.

It's been a rock solid box and I've been using it quite a bit recently. I think I'll turn it into a Flame box at some point.

Got the cables to hook up the DM5 to the DCD and hacked the gigabit card. I attached a STONE FC JBOD, but the disks are rather noisy. Damn Discreet and their "special" firmware. The pair of 300GB seagate 10K.7 disks attached to the QL12160 in the PCI cardcage has more capacity, and is whisper quiet...

I think I paid €250 for the system with 2x400MHz CPUs, 4GB RAM, V12 graphics and PCI cage. That was probably in 2008. It came with various bits and pieces to run a Discreet Flame as well. I think I paid some more for some fibre channel hardware (a SUN A5200??). The catch was that the seller had back problems and needed someone to come over and remove it from his place. I prefer to do business in person, but for the seller it limits the audience (thus lowers the price :mrgreen: ).

The extra carrier with V12, DCD, DM2 and FC adapter was $200 ... $250 shipped from Israel. I don't know anymore what I paid for the CPU, I think it was $350 + shipping from the US. You can buy the 3c996bT ethernet cards and the QLA2342 FC cards for a couple of bucks.

Lesson to learn here: you can get a pretty decent machine for a fair price, but if the upgrade fever hits and you buy the top spec parts individually you can easily double or triple your total cost. Even if you patiently wait for 2 years for a favorable deal like I did. Of course now I have a spare V12, and the 2x400MHz CPU ended up in a system I sold on so I reclaimed some of my money again.

Back then the exchange rate USD:EUR was also more favorable and they didn't really bother with import tax on items worth less than ~ EUR 250 or so.

Oh, and I did a fresh install on the system as usual. And then I managed to loose the backup of the Flame installation :oops:

i envy you for the DCD :D

I know that there is a different type of XIO carrier for VPro which is designed to hold two VPro cards, but it seems to me that is very rare and very valuable. I mean i was tempted to put two gfxs on, actually i have a chassis with a SE-gfx (Impact/SR serie) and a V6, this is an uncommon and not supported configuration that has no sense with Irix (and it does not work). I did so only because i have configured the linux kernel to dynamically load the frame buffer i want, so … i have have the console on V6, or on SE, i just need to mod probe the wanted kernel-module.

so, if i have understood right:
  • you cannot have MGRAS and VPro in the same system, they do not work with Irix
  • you could eventually have a XIO carrier for 2 VPro, this works with Irix, but the carrier is very expensive (and hard to find)
  • you'd better have a DCD, in order to have 2 CRTs, which is exactly what i need

Normally the DCD is only used with V12, probably for IFFFS setups in movie companies , but the DCD is also extremely good for development purposes as you can have the debugger's session (pretty full of interesting informations) on CRT0 and the the running application on CRT1, that's wonderful, marvelous, and damned productive

in short words: i simply want it :D

The dual carrier is not absolutely required; if you are careful you can wedge two vpros in there without it ;)

as it's very interesting, and in order to avoid extra OT (my apologies for this), i have opened a specific thread here to discuss the dual CRTs.
