Doing my daily read of Event Viewer stuff.

How exciting. Do you send it to a central collection point to make reading easy, like GrayLog?

Sitting in Whataburger parking lot down from SAM (trinity/old denton). Wanted to make the commute during my intro period where I have to be there at 9. About 1.5 hours to kill. Going to take the 7-4 shift, best for my commute.

Nice, I was out jogging. We should have done coffee. Dammit. I wasn't watching this closely enough.

Graylog is great. That's how we do it for production.

A lot of that likely going on today.

One step closer to actually virtualizing some stuff here. Boss will be ordering a few new drives, then I'll be blasting out 2 identical hosts for a "proof of concept" setup. Hopefully, I'll be able to spin up VMs of existing test and dev servers without users realizing that it has happened. Lots of P2V work coming soon.

I am very excite.

Reid Cooper

@RojoLoco welcome to the exciting world of virtualization!

Thank you, and I hope the community is prepared for the potential onslaught of stupid Hyper V questions.

I thought you were already virtual there.... at least that is what I remember from MC.

did you run a DPACK to find out your spec requirements to make sure you provide at least the same level as currently being provided?

I have a test environment, but we're still 1:1 physical boxes but not for much longer.

Not yet, but I will now. Most of the first round are older servers, so I'm hoping it will actually be a performance increase.
