    So I tested the backup functionality within XOS and the appliance backs it's self up without issue.

    Wow!

    No additional tools required. Great design @olivier !

    Mentions just seems weird in email. Unless their name makes sense in the message itself, it just seems odd to include it in the body instead of just typing it in the TO field.

    Because they do different things. People are in the "to" field all of the time because of "reply all" or just too many people being on the email. Mentions are so that they know that they are talked about in the email itself that they have already received:

    To use Mentions, simply add the @ symbol in the body of an email. This will bring up your frequent contacts as well as access to your directory. Select the person you want to highlight, and they will automatically be added to the To: line if they were not already included. In addition, their name will be highlighted in the message in blue and they will receive an @ flag in their inbox view next to the message. Furthermore, they can sort by their @ messages to ensure they respond to all messages in which they were mentioned.

    Even when I RDS into a Windows server, I thought the reboot option was typically greyed out? Maybe that was only my TS days?

    used to be. that's why you always had to reboot from the command prompt.

    Xen is purely LF, but also the toolstack which made XenServer what it is. Eg, XAPI is also a LF project 🙂

    So +1 from the Scott's comment.

    @scottalanmiller We were attempting "NSLOOKUP 172.16.2.110" and receiving the stated error. As per my previous response, I think we got it fixed by adding the reverse lookup zone, and allowing it time to propagate.

    Interesting.. for some reason I thought you were trying to NSLOOKUP using the client as a DNS server, which of course would fail.

    Well - continuing down the fan spin up, spin down saga - Today HP had me send them logs from iLo. Those logs showed that I am using a NIC firmware that they have since pulled (but it was in the service pack DVD ISO - so WTF?). They want me to downgrade the NIC firmware.

    Of course, the single install file for NIC firmware is gui based, and even though you can extract the dozen or so files from the installer and run them direct, they don't have instructions for doing so.

    So now I'm stuck downloading and old Service Pack DVD ISO so I can boot from that and downgrade my firmware. oh boy!

    Doesn't Ubiquiti have something for this? There was some vendor that I looked at in the last year that had nice options and now I cannot remember who it was.

    If I'm looking at $200 entry fee for just a networked temperature sensor, well, a Raspberri Pi with a $3 temp sensor and $.10 resistor looks real good.

    Knowing how Ubiquiti does things, they probably drop the DIY route off the cost curve. Yep, looked at B+H Looks like you can get a temp sensor on the network for ~$96, which you'd be at or over that price just for components of a DIY kit.

    I don't think so. I know the 360 edition requires it's own servers over Xbox Live... I was fairly certain the PS3 edition could only connect to other PS3s and the maybe the PS Vita.

    Isn't this a client who was fired? Problem fixed!

    Yup... unfortuneatley the client refused to put in the hardware and required all updates to all machines be shut off, and requested all machines be rolled back from 10 that he hated....

    I'm mainly doing it just to get some experience with XenServer. That's the only Hypervisor I don't get to play with on a regular basis. I'll keep it a month or two and let it go, most likely.... This will help me to decide if I want to switch my home server to XenServer (it'd be a lot of effort at the moment).

    @MattSpeller How?

    I don't see one posted on their site actually.... very odd

    Since it's a torrent it's probably included in the folder.

    Yes. right here

    really? you trust what's included? That doesn't seem very secure.

    Of course. it is no different than trusting the website itself. Both could be hijacked if you are that paranoid about it.
