@Danp Yep, it's a pretty basic, but really useful tool.

Good additional resource, although his guidance on disk size for RAIDZ is bad because it is array size, not disk size, that matters and no modern disk or array is realistically small enough to ever consider RAIDZ. So RAIDZ (because it is just RAID 5, nothing more) has been dead with at least 2009.

@Alket_tux said in Windows Server Memory:

i think i got the solution, it is the volume of the processes that certain user was doing 😉

That would do it 🙂

@Dashrender already done several times, no progress

@jt1001001 said in Data centers and retrofitting:

We have an old hospital that they converted the ER and emergency operating rooms into a data center. Redundant power feeds and generator were already on site so all they did was upgrade to latest code and add UPS system. The old ER ambulance entrance is now the shipping/staging area.

My company is colocating some of our equipment in here come next month.

We looked at Victory didn't go for it but it was a really cool datacenter.

@bhautik.shah said in IBM Server X3650 (Type7979I2S) Raid Problem? Server RAID Card 8K-L:

Now i have to decide add on raid controller on to this server.

A quality RAID controller is not cheap. Even the most entry level one will be worth more than a ten year old server. I would replace the server with one that comes with a RAID controller already.

If you are in the US, xByte makes this super affordable for Dell and now HPE servers. Outside of the US, I normally advice SuperMicro.

Allright I got the machine live! 
So what I did was really plain and simple...

Create a backup and recovery media with Veeam endpoint backup.
Restore the backup onto my xen server (with driver injection). 
Boot the machine in safe mode.
Disable hyper-v services (even though they are disabled in hyper-v...)
Reboot
Done

I still can't believe it took me so long to figure this one out. I was deleting/editing registry entries related to drivers that I didn't need etc...

@scottalanmiller any news yet?

Nope

I also recommend developing the site on pantheon and then moving it to your server. It's much easier to develop there.

Fixed

@DustinB3403 said in Thinstation by Donald A Cupp Jr:

Exactly, thin client you'd pxeboot into your environment and go from there. You don't even need a hard drive.

That's diskless booting. A different topic. A pxebooted machine is very often still a fat client.

@Tim_G

/log=C:\CallRecordingsTest\Winscp.log /script=C:\CallRecordingsTest\CallRecordings.txt

OR,

If I just have this: /log=C:\CallRecordingsTest\Winscp.log

It will start WinSCP in the background (no GUI, I just know it's running via task manager) but will not put anything in the log file.

@scottalanmiller

Actually there's no problem in upgrading my OS, the only problem is that I might need to create first a vm for my other apps to work. After this, I might proceed with the upgrade. Actually the purpose of setting up this Hyper V server is for my colleagues to practice on Windows Server VM's. But thanks for the inputs, another day and another learned input from tech gurus like you guys.

Thanks

So if you get Windows 10, get an XP media, get SA rights... you are free to install XP!

Er, I know, that's what I just said.

@bishnitro said in how to get support for skype account lockout?:

I have 2 subscriptions on that account that continues to charge my credit cards....what a pain!

That you can't shut off because they refuse to provide customer service? I would never put a credit card on a Skype account, that's scary.

Call the bank and shut that off. At this point, it's legitimately fraud.

@scottalanmiller said in Wireless Card Spottiness - Lenovo T440:

Dominica's Lenovo crashed hard tonight. That thing with Win 10 crashed like once a month. Asus with Ubuntu, never.

Where you still using the WiFi card that came with it? It was totally worth the $65 investment in a third party card for my Yoga. After that - all problems just gone!

And I upgraded to AC, it came with N.

Yes, still using the Lenovo hardware.

@Dashrender said in Wireless Projectors -WPA/WPA2 and Radius Enabled:

If it's PC based, OK I see what you mean, but if it's user based, I would think (but more than willing to be wrong) that you just enter your domain creds and you're good. no?

This is correct, for non-domain joined laptops I can still connect to the corporate network by providing a username and password, and then I'd be on the corporate WLAN. Which is what I was hoping I could do with a projector (if one had such capability).

Why wouldn't it? I suppose it's possible - Look for WPA/WPA2 Enterprise support. The Enterprise piece means RADIUS.

I miss the ol' LicenseOnLine.com days.

@Mike-Davis said in Windows 10 and SSH:

When you SSH in, does it put you in a powershell console?

That would be awesome! That would probably be the best feature of Windows 10 and Server 2016.

Yeah. They've been saying that for forever.

You can use the upgrade tool which is even easier if you are on a current version of owncloud. Even though the article doesn't say anything about updating from owncloud, the first article I posted does say you can use this method on current owncloud servers. You just switch the update channel and search for updates.
