Currently i have 3 servers and dont have a permanent purpose for any yet besides the freenas so a systematic approach doesnt work because they could share purpose or be repurposed i would really rather go with a symbolic name so that if i call the r710 s-web and then tack on other purposes or completely ditch the web then it no longer applies

How did you decide on the code names for the servers? I have a small rack that I'm slowly building, and when I just had a few devices naming was easy, but as I run out of storage or processing I have to add more. This makes it more difficult to separate devices based off what the device literally is. Although a code name system sounds like it would work better, trying to come up with many unique code names is harder than it sounds.
