17 hours agoI’ve always used an abbreviated site name such as CL1 to represent CoLo, then a shortened description like “db” to represent database server, the a number to use in case there’s more than one.
I also keep it under 18(?) characters to deal with name length limitations.
Tip: You can remove all vowels and it will still be readable.
CL1-DB-01 1st db server in the 1st Colo CL1-JMP-02 2nd jump box in the 1st Colo CL2-Frwll-01 1st firewall in the 2nd Colo.
Whole home water filters is what you want. Work with a filter company to figure out what you need.
Your neighbor might have different test results. My parents moved their we’ll 50 ft after it got struck by lightning and the water was very different.
I also refill filtered water for drinking. 5gal jugs, has a dispenser with both hot and cold. I do u-haul style water, not a well. It’s from the city but I prefer the taste of the filtered water.
