@Dashrender said in Java Suspected in Level 3 Outage:

But we are talking about something for the betterment of all, like the universal healthcare you are for - like that we should all want a safer, more secure internet. The only way we are going to get that is if the vendors are forced to provide it, as the consumer will never demand it.

Yes, so if you can define a standard level of effort and make it a regulatory thing, then by all means. But how will you do that without crippling small companies, interfering with security in bad ways, etc.?

@fuznutz04 said in Vitelity inbound calling is failing:

@JaredBusch Good idea to manually down the trunk. However, I think you're right, Not sure if it would have done anything as the calls were coming into Vitelity but then not working 100% Such a random event.

I've had decent luck with Vitelity so far. Let's hope this is just a special case.

I quit using Vitelity because of these types of issues repeatedly happening a few times a year.

You typically use voip.ms right?

Yes.

I grew up with my father working as an internal consultant in engineering and they would call their clients customers, even when they were internal. Never users. It's not an IT thing, it's a standard "service department" thing. And was common by the 1970s for sure.

Have not tried this combination. I'm pretty confident it will work, but what the settings are.... no idea.

@hubtechagain said in SIP registrations failing for 2 phones:

their bridge mode isn't a true bridge either. just FYI

Right. I was reading up on that a bit. People seem to call it a "pseudo bridge mode."

That's why they call it "bridge mode" rather than bridging.

@Dashrender said in Android OS and tracking:

Unless she is willing to root it and put on her own firmware/ROM, I wouldn't use it if she's worried about that at all.

The built in ROM could easily restore any tracking, etc, software installed when you wipe the phone. Only way to be sure would be to not use it. Second best way, replace the ROM. I'm not sure you can actually update the BIOS to ensure nothing is hiding in there - remember LoJack - it can be in the BIOS and reinstall itself on a new OS install - just like the Lenovo BIOS thing of last year.

While it is possible that tracking is built into the stock ROM, I find that highly unlikely. Also, since this is a gaming device, there is no real need to use your main Google Account on this device if you are wary of it. If you just play the games on it and disable the GPS, I don't see much of an issue.

I do agree that rooting and putting a custom ROM on there is a good idea. However, I think the risk of tracking with the stock ROM is virtually non-existent.

@Mike-Davis said in pagefile size on Windows Server with dynamic RAM?:

@dafyre Only on servers with dynamic RAM? Those are the only servers I'm having that issue with, and setting the page file size manually didn't fix it they way I thought it would.

If you didn't also change the PF size, I'm not surprised that it didn't fix the Zabbix issue.

No, it have issues with all of my servers with that trigger. It's definitely a zabbix issue, as far as I'm concerned.

I haven't had time to research it.

Which CAD software are we talking about again?

Every single one that I've worked with had it's own version control built in, but would often cost extra for the licensing. You setup a server with the version control software for everyone to use. The workflow is then open V.C.S. -> checkout the file to be changed/add new file -> make changes -> save changes locally -> login to V.C.S. and check in the new version. Most of them would keep previous versions of files as well, and log who checked out each file (mostly so the next person who works on the file can go track them down when someone doesn't do the final step.) I'd say stick with the built-in tool chain.

@stacksofplates said in MTS Data Card issue in Ubuntu 17.04:

Just as an aside, 17.04 hasn't even been released yet. Why are you trying to install on this release?

It's a LONG way from being released, too. It's nowhere near beta.

@gjacobse The customer didn't get back to me, so I'm waiting on them.

@mkoestesur said in Stratoscale, any opinions about it?:

Ones you try it you will never want anything else.

What aspects of it do you like?

I just feel websites should display what's the latest version easier 😄 for us lazy people that can't be bothered to click though several pages and register just to see lol 😄

Just a switch, not a server, but it was 12-15 meters above the ground on a steel construction for a 50t indoor crane. Lots of oil and dust, no railing and a dozen pigeons right above me.

Freaking experience. Did I mention that I'm a bit acrophobic? At least at 10 meters and above 😉

@scottalanmiller said in How Many Ads?!:

It also appears to count ads that are commented out in code. So it is blocking things that are not there, as well.

Late to the party, but it was I and someone else at MangoCon that dug into it and found that counts all unused/unshown ads

The read usage on this system is insane for what it is normally doing.

Even a tiny SW install we recommend some hefty resources and dedicated SSDs. You definitely just figured out the problem. Had you led with this we could have told you instantly what the issue was.

Our rather beefy SW install runs on rust just fine. Not even a half decent rust array. Old junk.

I'm surprised. Even when ours was tiny we gave it 100,000 IOPS and it remained slow.

¯\(ツ)/¯

There's only 3 of us in IT here. I suspect more concurrent users would kill it.

We had probably ten or fifteen and loads of tickets. But that isn't that much of a jump, I wouldn't think.

@travisdh1 said

NUT should work with any model UPS, not just APC like apcupsd.

@JaredBusch said apcupsd works with other UPSes as well.

That was my first question. 🙂

Huh, I'll have to give it another look then.

It is designed for APC, but you can use almost any UPS via USB if you set it to generic.

Excellent. So then the only entries needed would be any device that has a static IP address.

Yes.

EdgeOS is getting better all the time.

Yes.

Ok had a new client start with us this morning. And of course my PBX guy has no internet. So I have PolyCom5050's that the message waiting indicator light aren't lighting up on.
Yes PBX side things are fine (Elastix)
Yes the basic settings phone side are fine.

I am pretty sure I have to go into the firmware and change things..... UMMM NO STINKING IDEA HOW TO DO THAT!!!

#NOTAPBXENGINEER #IHAVENTWORKEDONAPBXINYEARS #HELPBEFOREIKILLSOMEONE

Haven't touched a polycom in a while, but how much you want to pay me? 😉

If my PBX guy doesn't get internet by lunch time I might pay you to deal with it cause of course my team of normally 7 is now 2.

/me shuts his damned mouth....

giggling I learned how that works when I said something like "Yeah, I could do that" before MangoCon 😉
