I once worked in a company that named theirs servers server1, server2, server3, etc.

That atleast makes them (hopefully) chronological and easy to refer to.

Unfortunately no. The servers were set up when needed for whatever was needed. server2 was the AD, server1 had a business application running, server3 had backup and time tracking … it was a whole mess.

Edit: the the memories come back. Nothing was virtualized. server2 was an old Dell tower computer running Windows 2000 on the bare metal and server1 was manually installed Debian with kernel 2.6.*something*.

but easy to mix up
