On SAMPSACOM london, I name my machines after monkeys:

CHIMPY::
RHESUS::
GORVAX::               (Gorilla VAX, SIMH that runs on a OS X box called Gorilla)


SAMPSACOM Finland is a bit more all over the place :)

If you mean SGC, and SG1 that is simple!   The code name for VMS was
STAR.   With the exception of the STRGTE:: (Stargate) cluster (SGC, SG1,
SG2,...SGn) all VMS nodes are named after stars.   The PDP-11 nodes are
usually named after planets (if they were available).

That IS quite simple and straightforward!   It's also less limited than my naming scheme. ;)


SGC is Stargate Command (STRGTE:: cluster boot node)
SG1 is Stargate 1, and is the primary "gateway" to the rest of HECnet
for the Eastern US (application server).
SG2 is Stargate 2, and is the primary "gateway" to another network
(application server).
SG3 is Stargate 3, and is the primary "gateway" to... (application
server).

That definitely makes sense.

I see a lot of these are routed via SG1. ;)

That is the whole purpose of SG1::.   Route... Route...
Route... That
is all it does :-)

Now if only I could completely figure out your naming scheme. ;)

What's it's highest uptime?

Hello!
Sampsa that does explain it. You do know why the favorite OS for X86
machines makes a funny noise and moves in colonies? Think hard, it is
a well dressed bird who's biggest problem is people.
