Different colors for different connections (Score:1)

by wka (651)

At my place of work, the convention is to use red for production and yellow for staging. That way, you can instantly tell the type of box you're connected to.
For development work, green on black or light blue on black.
For sessions on staging servers, yellow on black.
For sessions on production servers, red on black.
For sessions on backup servers orange on black.

  Similar for me, except that wonder of wonders, I got to name all the boxes this time around (for my company).
  
  So we have servers called "red", "orange", "green", "blue" (so far). For each server I have $colour on black.
  
  It's neato :)
  
  It's saved at least 3 accidental running of things on the wrong machine just in the last 3 months
