  For the record, at 10:30 in the video you talk about the original RoIT site failing. It was never released to the public as such, we played around with the idea of it for a while but setting up a non-profit entity and all that's involved in that was way more work and money than we'd originally thought. We decided not to go forward with the project since but I don't think that really counts as failing. I'm glad someone pointed to the WBM link, I had forgotten that we'd made the domain name into a rick roll, that made me smile.

  @JasGot said in Worthwhile IT projects or products for small office with extra money?: They though about a new projector in their board room, but it will not fall under the $2,500 mark. Wonder why... Also if the board room is not too big, a professional signage screen is usually better than a projector. For instance a 75" 4K from Philips or Samsung will be sub $2K. Larger screens such as 82", 86" will probably be on the limit budget wise. Many of these screens has integrated media player/web browser as well so you don't really need to hook them up to a computer - if you don't want to.

A generic smart tv I have comes up has Hon Hai which is either a foxcon offshoot or the parent company. The Roku comes up as LiteOn I think Cool, yeah I was thinking it might be something like that, but this office doesn't have a smarttv etc. My guess is it may be an old Ruckus AP, or that someone brought something else in within the past week. The AP's I setup show as managed and without issue (and they didn't show up when I was setting up these units either). If you have the Mac address of the AP, can you see which IP address it has, and then block that at the router ? Or look for one IP that's generating more traffic ? It doesn't have an IP, I've checked the DHCP server, and the firewall. The switches aren't managed so I can't look here to locate it. eee Oh for crying out loud. Load Advanced IP scanner on a computer on site and scan the network. Already tried this, again it's broadcasting, bit without an IP address. You'll probably need to go onsite and use Wifi Analyzer or WiFiman to track it down. Yeah that is what I'm thinking. I sent the customer a note to see if they were aware of anything else being plugged in recently. As if they know anything about anything. Just pray you have managed switches for when someone sees a loose network end and plugs it into the same switch the other end is already plugged into. Lost an afternoon of my life tracking that one down, even knowing exactly what had to have happened. Tell me about it...

  The new gig that I'll start on Monday began with a cold contact I received on LinkedIn. The one before that I think from a cold call from a recruiter. As far as IT Manager, are you specifically wanting to manage people? I know my manager at my current gig is hands on with projects and really has to do minimal managing of us. I've also seen people with the title of "IT Manager" but they're a one-person-show in IT at said comapny, so there isn't anyone for them to actually manage.

  Looking for a tech in Amesbury, MASS. Nothing crazy, just remote hands that can follow directions and stuff. Able to help someone remotely troubleshoot networking. Just need someone for an evening or something like that, but would like someone that could go back again from time to time as we have regular customers there.

  Loosing good account reps seems to be the norm in the SBM... a sales person often seems to start out on the SMB desk, if they excel, they are promoted to other desks. This has happened to me at least three times across different vendors.

As defined by the vendor, it’s meant to monitor infrastructure performance and apply machine learning to improve performance as workloads change.

  For those wondering, SS project is on hold. Kind of. It's still talked about all the time but other software projects, with more pressing needs, have come up. We have a team working actively on the back end of SS, but the front end, which is the most interesting, we have to start over and it's going to be a long time before we can look at the front end again. But we are continuing to research and prepare for the day when we can focus on it again.

  @Pete-S said in To vSAN or not to vSAN?: The problem the way I see it with old stuff like the OP has is while there is nothing wrong with the technology itself, everything is relatively slow with today's standard and much more complex than needed. It's very true. And the risk today is that we are so accustomed to that complexity, that we often avoid the simple answers today.

Missing everyone, more than usual. You could have done a virtual MC and brought in even more attendees. The physical ones are virtual as well so it doesn't seem like only virtual would bring in more than the two combined. They were? I thought they were just recorded and posted to YouTube like a year later? Were there actually live interactive broadcasts? Yeah, maybe not the latest year, but the original two years were done live as well. Who gave their presentations remotely? Weren't they all done on-site? Everyone presented locally to the conference, and it was broadcast to a remote audience. So everyone was local if you were there. Everyone was remote if you weren't. I know @gjacobse was one of the people who attended in year two remotely, for example.

  @gilberto said in raid partition 0: Excuse my ignorance. Now I was installing x2go. If I partition the hdd in raid 0 I also need to rebuild the operating system or just x2go. thank you. To reiterate: Any time you are reconfiguring an array, you lose everything on the array. If you want to keep the data, you must back the data up to a separate medium and restore it once you are done configuring the array.
