I guess if I setup a script to dump the database to a specific directly on some schedule, I could then ensure I have that directory included in the git commit. This would give me a database version 100% compatible with the point in time git made the commit of the rest of the stuff.

@scottalanmiller agreed. Though I don't know how they could call it an IMAP connector if it's not syncing. They should just get rid of IMAP, though I suppose these days some mail services might not offer POP3 anymore.

Because IMAP is a protocol and does not imply syncing. Calling it anything but IMAP would be false. IMAP is just as correct when syncing as when not.

I'm going to have "actually, OneDrive is a backup" engraved on my tombstone. If you delete a file locally, or change it, you can restore an earlier version from OneDrive. The backing up is done at Microsoft's end, but it is still backed up.

Excellent. I was unaware that they were taking a full backup of that nature and not just a sync. Great to know!

Technically, I would say it as "OneDrive is backed up" rather than "OneDrive is a back up", but it makes it much closer.

Been reading and it seems this is not truly fixed.

Patched yesterday afternoon and everything seems resolved.

I opened a case with Dell, once they called me back - they walked me through the procedure I mentioned above.

Logon to server in question

disk management > assign the SRP a drive letter, make sure you can see system files, take ownership of system volume information > grant full control of system volume information

delete the AAlog_* files

Give ownership back to system

remove the permissions you gave yourself, starting with the files, then the folder itself

remove the drive letter you gave the SRP

Done - you should now have over 50 megs of free space in the SRP - now try to do your backup.

good job dude

Sounds like a file association error. Check this link:

@scottalanmiller Thanks! I found this website to help me with the differences.

..that and the fact that it seems a bit crap and unreliable.

Any progress?

Haven't tried to visit the server yet..

Direct to Azure is pretty nice. Would like to see Rackspace support too.

DevOps is when the software development person is also the person deploying and supporting the systems. If you are not writing the applications that you run, then you aren't DevOps. Hardware and software is just IT. DevOps means that you are a software developer (SE) first and foremost, but have to do the IT too.

That works for the web interface, we were hoping for the SSH interface.

Surface Pro 3 i7 Model = throttling/overheating

but you can solve the throttling with external usb fan

it's pretty silly to me that a backup company would keep 9-5 business hours....

Although some places are getting better.

When I was in downtown Atlanta over labor Day this year, I was able to get cellular phone and data services. The last 4 times I was there, it was nearly impossible to make a phone call, as for data, forget about it.

True enough.
