@scottalanmiller Did you just spam your own forums with your own articles? How dare you
Trying hard to get them all moved over so that any historical info is here and not just on the WayBack Machine. Two Linux articles left to go from there.
Makes sense

You know, it might feel like a slow day but looking at the numbers, posts are solid (not high, but good) and the activity level is crazy and looking at some other sites, they are way down today. So I think that it is a generally slow day for posting. I think we are doing at least double the posting of our most comparable site.
-
@scottalanmiller How are you pulling numbers for those other sites? Just curious.

I'm subscribed to every technical post made there and see the email traffic. And it is very slow today. Slow enough that I am totally keeping up with it only casually checking in from time to time.

(FINALLY) cloning my XS boot USB stick using the writeup from @DustinB3403
Hoping and praying, but that's just me. Stupid computers.

BTW this clone is bipping along at 40MBps and dropping. (USB3.)
Wondering is that is normal. That is what I am currently doing.
-
Down to 33.3 MBps.
Wonder why.
Dangit I wanted to get out of here. Why is this taking so long?????????

Maybe you are getting to slower parts of the drives or you have eaten up some of the cache?

It's a USB stick writing to a SSD. Still entirely possibly a caching issue though.
I just hope it doesn't go belly up.
Maybe it's tired. It IS Thursday after all.

I might be here all night.

I know the feeling, and I have to drive the family to Utica tonight yet. And we've not even thought about what we are going to do for dinner.

Soup (or cereal) is always the go-to in our house in those scenarios.

Finally done cloning.
Verify is now running at 116 MBps.
Please server, boot back up. PLEASE!!!!!!!!

54 minutes to clone a 64GB USB3 stick.

That's not really that horrible of a number. USB sticks don't tend to be all that fast.

I am teaching @DustinB3403 well... side bar convo...
Me: You should see MY lab.
Dustin: you havent seen your lab, if you have you arent a Sys Admin!
Me: It's true, I've not seen it either.
-
Holy cow, it came back up with no problems.
I'll test the clone some other day. Time to get home for some leftover dinner!

My next test will be to purposely hose my test machine. If I can bring a crashed XS back without much difficulty, it will definitely have my undying love.
