seems cool enough to me, I hate freezing my ass off in a computer/equipment room. I have to find the hottest running bays and stand by them to try and warm up.

The company's probably more concerned with their gajillion dollar server than your comfort. 😛
 
If it holds steady at 77.9º that doesn't sound like a problem to me. When it hits 100º+, then you might wanna start worrying. Did I mention that losing the water supply to your data center chillers sucks? :frown: Happened to us last May - some of our SAN equipment reported internal temps of 135º - and we still lose the occasional piece of hardware to mysterious unexplained causes.
 
add new equipment? maybe your A/C tonage isnt enough anymore. we had to add our 5th A/C unit last summer because of all the new servers we added. the other 4 just couldnt handle it so we got funding and put in a 20 ton unit and man that baby pumps out the cold air. even with those 5 units our main server room is gets no cooler than 70.

If your job depended on millions in hardware being up and not fried you may be upset.

My computer room stays at a cool 65F 24/7.

This is OFF TOPIC. What would you prefer we be talking about?

and he got an OFF TOPIC answer from me 😛

If he posted on here looking for actual advice on what to do, much like people looking for medical advice , then he gets what he deserves.

That's pretty cool, but I'm assuming that's not a large-scale server operation 😉

Cooler = better, up to a certain point of course. Same with humidity, drier = better.
 
hah, i would hope no one would come here looking for real answers to any questions.

looks like things are starting to cool down.
 
I wish they would take heat as seriously in our computer labs at school. I love how when the AC breaks, temps spike to 90+. Even yesterday with the AC running, it was clearly toastier than the outside 75F that weather.com was reporting.

I've sent off multiple emails saying that this is unacceptable heat because it's not even comfortable to work at these temperatures anymore. But then again, that's because where I used to work maintained their server room at 68.
 
What type of HVAC equipment are you using?
What models, how many, what is your load?

Turn the set point down.
