@Dashrender said in RAID10 - Two Drive Failure:

I'm guessing this is an issue with hypervisors? my older bare metal servers all (HP and IBM - not Lenovo) had utilities that allowed RAID controller management from within the OS. I haven't seen a way to manage then when a hypervisor is in place though.

Still do, he's saying that that is third party software, is all. Third party to the OS, first party to the controller.

@coliver I went through all of the drive/sync solutions recently and Sharefile was surprisingly the best. That does not include Nextcloud as I never got around to trying it.

I did try the tool @coliver mentions and a few others, but the lag on my large dataset was too much to deal with.

I do agree the web UI for ODfB is slow and buggy, definitely not something I would prefer to browsing a network drive. The sync was the worst of all tested (Dropbox, Google Drive, etc).

Maybe it will improve with that update in the fall where OneDrive Files on Demand will be integrated in Windows 10.

@Francesco-Provino Thanks for your response.

I am confusing that the Edgerouter ERLite-3 has price $49 with 1 mil packet per second which is same price with Cisco Linksys E2500 with the packet per second (Not sure). The Cisco one which I am using it is unable to deliver the outbound call. Most of the calls are drop, busy and no voice or breaking voice.

The E2500 series Linksys uses a weak broadcomm CPU and has 64mb of RAM

Whereas the ERLite uses a beefy Cavium MIPS CPU and has 512MB of RAM

@stacksofplates said in Permission error attempting to update ownCloud to Nextcloud:

What's crazy to me is they haven't built SELinux operations into their update scripts.

Yes. And upgrade completed. Such a simple thing to check and tell people.

I have received USPS and UPS ones lately. Normals would be totally fooled by them. 😞

@jt1001001 It will only work if the CPU is 64 bits but the Vmware version is 32 bits.

If it really is a link to a website, that's another story.

@JaredBusch said in Doubts regarding VoIP system:

If the users are calling a DID instead of an extension, then of course the provider sees it and charges for it.

Sounds like the system is either misconfigured or the users were incorrectly instructed.

i was wondering this.

Ok, got it fixed.
I was treating the allocation like I would in Hyper-V, KVM is slightly different.

Setting the Current & Max allocation to the same amounts, 8 or 16, fixed things up.

@stacksofplates like let the san use uts own snapshot/backup sw?

Yes, which isn't quite fully offloaded, but a reliable means of communications so that the SAN can do the majority of the work.

Actually vVols is different than SAN Snap-ins in how snapshot offload is done. VMFS snapshots do not exist at all in the case you use them. You also get a management, and command integration so you can set compliance requirements (encryption, retention, replication, performance minimums) and apply policies automatically (using OpenStack, VCD, vRA etc) and it will validate that those configurations are continuously met and alert if not. Nifty stuff.

Unless you need to record internal calls I would use your sip providers API, everyone offers it these days and usually for .0002 or so per minute. (Twilio, Telnyx etc)

I would trust Freepbx about as far as I could throw it for this task.

@Dashrender said in Fresh Win 10 install - doesn't include crapware:

Now that's really weird.

is that 1703? What is the last cumulative update you have installed?

That one is current. Image was put on last week and then updates ran.

Any reason for just using the bs=4M? I saw this too on the following link:

Not on Slack but there are several great one using https://gitter.im, most communities are for developers but I think you might like more than one using this tag:

Devops - https://gitter.im/explore/tags/curated:devops,devops

Ansible - https://gitter.im/ansible/ansible?source=explore Docker - https://gitter.im/docker/docker?source=explore

Seems a bit like an IRC channel.

IRC is all but dead, has been going that way for a long time. Just a lot of old timers hanging on to it.

This seems a lot like old timers hanging onto it, though 🙂

It is a huge community, but my personal experience show that less people are coming in than leaving because of tools like slack.

Read this. especially if you're using the community version.

@Dashrender said in Users with multiple phones and phones with multiple users:

How do you secure this for truly mobile use (crazy guy is allowed to demand the use of a physical phone from anywhere)?

Ideally, crazy long passwords, and better with TLS on the SIP channel. You can go further with port knocking and similar. VPN is an option. But good passwords go a long way, and adding TLS goes really far.

You don't hotdesk with secure creds though because you cannot trust users type all of that in. That is why it is a bad idea for this scenario.

The best option is simply to use secure credentials like always and just allow the extension to authenticate from more than one device.

This requires training the users to push their ext button before dialing out when using the shared phone in the office.

This will likely be the way I'll handle the folks who come into the office once per week. This project is the perfect opportunity to introduce new behavior.

@Dashrender Right now, there is no security outside of extension number and passcode. Out-of-office users, simply have their phones configured to talk to our on-premises server and they login using their extension's credentials. Everything's in the clear.

Hence your toll fraud. I can log on to any of those extensions from anywhere.

Fedora Desktop has an awesome one baked in too. It's my favorite one. Forget the name without looking.

Its called Fedora Media Writer and it is awesome.

Yes that's it. I use it on Windows too.
