What’s everyone’s server naming scheme?
Proxmox1-n
[Servicename]-ctr for containers
[OS/arch]-dev dev vms
That’s about it.I name everything after celestial objects. Stars, galaxies, constellations, and nebula are all good sources of names. Not the ones with the random number names, stuff like Andromeda and Sirius
Culture ships.
Limiting Factor and Cargo Cult are desktops.
Empiricist and Sense amid Madness, Wit Amdist Folly are a NAS and NUC that runs everything I need
Its a great variety of memorable names.
(And even though Elon keeps naming things after them, he hasn’t fucking read the books.)
You know Dasher, and Dancer, and Prancer, and Vixen. Comet, and Cupid, and Donner, and Blitzen…
I personally name my servers after Rain World iterators and creatures. I fear the day when I run out of names.
