Those HPUX machines were hot!

No, seriously, sometimes they caught on fire.

Interesting, I used HP-UX across a few years, but never heard of heat moments that would require using an extinguisher on the server room.

I only ever heard of HPUX workstations catching fire. No idea about their servers.

This was during 1999-2002 and 2004-2006, HP-UX 10.x and 11.
