Mimicing a thread I saw elsewhere.

I generally use this list to name my machines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mythological_objects

For my main server I use loeding: a modified version of Lædingr, a chain forged by Thor to bind and were broken by Fenrir. (Norse Mythology)

As a huge fan of Star Wars content from before Disney got involved and poisoned it (notable exceptions of Rogue One, Andor, some of the animated shows, etc.), I utilize warship names from the Expanded Universe (now called "Legends") - what I like to call True Star Wars.

My main server is Chimaera. My backup server that also performs as an NVR is Lusankya. My separate mostly-NAS server away from my server rack is Admonitor.

I have sci-fi themed names (not all Star Wars - two other franchises represented here, virtual kudos to those who can identify) for the storage pools too (using TrueNAS SCALE on all three servers):

  • Chimaera (Main Server)
    • Star-Forge (Apps/VM Pool)
    • Holocron (Data Pool)
  • Lusankya (Backup + NVR Server)
    • Shadow-Broker (Apps Pool)
    • Resurrection (Backup Pool)
    • Spynet (NVR Pool)
  • Admonitor (NAS Server)
    • Mount-Tantiss (Apps Pool)
    • Datacron (Data Pool)
