<div>Killian, yes indeed. I manage both an SGI Altix with the rear-door heat exchangers, and an ICE cluster.<br>We are lucky enough to have our own lake for a cooling pond. Grin.<br> <br>I think these are the cat's pyjamas - the SGI ones come in four horizontal 'stable doors' so you can swing one open for an extended amount of time to work on the rear of systems without overheating the whole rack.<br>
They enable us to run machines in some reasonably small spaces, and have been reliable.<br> </div>
