A recent networking outage was caused by improperly labeling a server. Hardware managers or operations center personnel often do not know or think to see if a server is down before unplugging it. Even a planned outage of a back server can cause a severe outage if the primary/backups are mislabeled. Take the time to properly label and regularly inspect printed labels on the front of servers or operations center equipment as a measure to reduce downtime.
Many inexpensive products will do the trick, this is one I own.
