At school I use 30+ redundant laptops. Kids work with these devices in 6 ict classes, that is 9 clock hours every week. Maintenance is a challenge.
I created this page as an experiment to keep a log of these machines. The goal is to install a local media wiki server in the classroom which can be maintained by students.
I'll start with just a flat file.
- 'Type' denotes the brand and type of the laptop and the index.
- 'member' - the color code of the group the device belongs to. The laptops who belong to the same group are stored in a box with the same color coding
- 'kernel' - the kernel version of the OS. SMP means a 32 bits kernel.the device
- 'state' - what is broken.
- 'action' - what needs to be done.
Example table.
| type | member | kernel | state | action |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| hp530-1 | ReGr-1 | 5.13smp | battery dead | change battery |
| hp530-2 | ReGr-2 | 5.13smp | ctrl-key broken | replace key or keyboard |
| hp530-3 | ReGr-3 | 5.10smp | old kernel | update os |
| hp530-4 | ReGr-4 | 5.13smp | low on ram | install extra memory bank |
Note: This effort is inspired by the discussion I had with Justa about the communication of the state of Techninc tools, member projects and inventory. The idea is to use a combination of color codes and index numbers. The colors express the state of the object. The number refers to a webpage on the wiki.
