I have a colleague who was on the on-call rotation for some of our systems hosted in a datacenter our company owned. During this rotation he got unlucky in that the datacenter detected fire and decided to disperse gas that displaces oxygen (I think it was Halon gas?). Those systems are no joke - you have a short warning before you are supposed to put on a mask or get out of the server room otherwise you will just suf…
if you disassemble one you will find the tiny air filter module which covers a hole in the casing for equalizing pressure with the outside air.
