Building Reliable Systems

While everyone wants to get a cheap Raspberry Pi or old computer and install ASL on it to make a "junk box" linking repeater controller, others want something they can put at a site for years without needing to worry about it. These users are less concerned about price, as their sites may be inaccessible for good parts of the year. Or like myself, simply not have the time to go fix it when it breaks.
Reliability of the controller/install falls into two major segments, hardware and operations. Hardware is the choice of system parts and operations comes down to how you monitor and maintain it.
Hardware
ASL can install on intel/amd based servers or on arm (Raspberry PI 3/4), and each has it's use.
