Re: [AusNOG] Moving equipment from Singapore to Sydney
Check your maintenance agreements still apply. These are often tied to the location and local suppliers. This alone can make a relocation impractical for cost reasons.

Re: [AusNOG] Moving equipment from Singapore to Sydney
Hi Paul, Thanks for replying back to me. It is one of the reasons I was soliciting some advice on this list. I didn't have the experience of shipping that number of equipment overseas back to Sydney. Previously for a single device, I just pack the device in a box or a suitcase (if it fits) and travel as a piece of check-in baggage when I am on a scheduled visit. In some cases, I asked the Datacenter overseas to unrack, pack and ship back to Sydney. >How do you manage risk on such a move? vs someone internal with systems + local knowledge? All the devices will be wiped out of all the config/data before it will be shutdown. I got a some replies from the list as well. Allied Pickford for courier service and TXO-systems for IT asset de-installation and relocation (this might be expensive). >Hard disks can travel as carry on. This is a good option too. Thanks.

How do you manage risk on such a move? vs someone internal with systems + local knowledge? Hard disks can travel as carry on.

[AusNOG] Moving equipment from Singapore to Sydney
Hi All, We have some newish gear(Total 16 RU, 11 - Server, 5 - network gear) that we are exploring to move from Singapore (Equinix SG3) to Sydney. Does anyone on the list have experience or know someone who provides service for this kind of move(removing from the rack, and ship it to Sydney)? Kindly reply off-list. Thank you.
