@Dashrender I saw it before... I was prepared.

Ah - but in this case (not all)

It was an AP received and setup by the onsite IT prior to NTG take over.

So it was a Valid Device and SSID prior to it being discontinued. But 'unknown' to NTG. So it was a valid / working / known device just not known to us.

Did you install the new wireless? If the answer is yes the failures on you. You should've never left the site without confirming the old SS IDs were no longer broadcasting.

On the other hand if everything was set up by the previous person and you just took over management I can easily see this.

NTG has added four maybe five APs - all UBNT and attached to the UBNT Controller. We will be adding one ore two more in the near future likely to cover this new gap, and to extend as needed in other areas of the office / shop.

That still doesn't answer my question.

@Dashrender said in UBNT Releases UNIFI-AC HD MIMO Access Point:

huh, that's still less than normal APs from Cisco.

That's the point is they now have future parity with MIMO capabilities and are still cheaper.

That wasn't my point. My point was that UBNT's new MIMO AP is less expensive than Cisco's non MIMO (aka normal AC) AP.

Get DPACK to see what you're currently using.

Done a quick 24 hour run just now 🙂

Awesome.

@Mike-Davis said in iLo 2 can't see remote console:

@Dashrender It depends on the Gen. I know Gen 8 (not sure on others) will give you 5 minutes of access before booting you off. Most will give you console access until the server is done posting.

Yeah I realized in talking to others that I did get POST access on this old G5, but as soon as the OS booted, just get the grey screen seen above. What's weird is that the mouse and keyboard commands are being sent to the system, but the CNTRL + ALT + DEL button didn't work without the license. meh.

@thwr said in Fedora Server for production use?:

Interesting: Fedora 25 starts to panic with RAM < 512MB at the beginning of the kernel init phase, even in text mode. Just had a look at the manual which clearly says that Fedora requires 1GB of RAM.

Looks like I'm out of luck and have to stick to Ubuntu / Debian.

Another thing to note is with RHEL/CentOS 7.3 they recommend a 1GB boot partition instead of 512MB.

Just an aside.

Should work as long as you keep an eye on it. Ubuntu for example likes to keep old kernel and initrd images there until you clean them up (e.g. apt autoclean etc)

Ya I usually keep 3 and remove the others but I think the images are getting big enough they needed to adjust the size. If you do anew install it defaults to 1GB.

Omg I missed this absurdity from the original article:

We are also attempting to move GitLab application servers and supporting services (e.g. PostgreSQL) to bare metal.

Yeah, out of their minds.

MQ is actually looking at Odoo today.

I am aware of Webmin, but for now, I just need for File Server...

You can just ignore the other parts.

@DustinB3403 said in Installing XenServer 7 on VirtualBox - No Disk with Sufficient Space was Found:

@scottalanmiller Alternatively you can install XS6.5 on the smaller partition and then upgrade.

This however has downfalls.

There is also a way to install XS7 on a smaller partition, but Citrix does not recommend it.

AND WE KNOW TO FOLLOW WHAT THEY WANT! 😉

@Dashrender said in Backup of Office 365 Sharepoint sites:

Necropost!

Scott - do we know that MS takes backups? and where is the page stating as such (no I haven't looked myself).

@scottalanmiller said in Backup of Office 365 Sharepoint sites:

It is very important to remember that you have outsourced your hosting as well as your reliability and backups. Nothing wrong with taking your own backups, just keep in mind that they are already taking backups and your backups are a third party backup above and beyond the normal backups and a degree of backup that you would never consider (normally) doing if you were not hosted. The desire to take your own backups is generally an emotional one and not one based on actual, statistical risk.

So you're saying that you can call up MS and say - hey I need you to restore all my ODfB account to yesterday because i got hit by Cryptowall - and they will do it?

Doesn't that tool give you version rollback built in?

@JaredBusch said in OneDrive - possible restore after crypto virus:

This is no different than any other file sync service.

That you get a means of recovery is great, but that does not mean it is a backup.

Well what's worse, it's likely that the only files that get history version are ones on MS's supported list. I need to find that list of file types.

That is correct for Onedrive. ODfB does version all files, I think.

If I have time tonight I will have to play with that.

I know it works on ODfB for things like text files. Not sure about every file, like JPGs and stuff. ISOs, whatever.

Not that far into the system yet. I'm looking to move over from SW, but haven't rolled this out for production use.

Way to flip it back on them.

Did you drop an imaginary mike afterwards?

Knowing Scott, he did. Just in his own way.

Knowing Scott he probably had a real one in his pocket, which he pulled out, then dropped.
