I did not even know this was possible, but our UPS had a large failure on Monday and sent a surge to back end hardware. I thought the point of UPS was to protect end hardware from network surges, but hey... it happened.
That's a pretty rare failure, but I have seen it happen once before. Not on gear that large though.

Of course it's not supposed to happen, and even try to protect against it - but yeah, nothing like this would ultimately surprise me - it's power after all, and if it's connected, anything can happen

Its bad timing that gets me, on Monday we get the servers that are replacing these and have been on order for a while, and we had approval to replace the UPS a while back but couldn't due to COVID-19 with the office closed! Oh well, will survive it
Have a good weekend folks!

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
-
Good morning! PBX down this morning, dealing with that. And having coffee.
-
RHCSA prep work.

Watching the Budgeteers.
-
Moved a lot of mulch today.
-
Finished off the decking.
Need to measure and order the cladding for the side now. Also we decided on a fire pit build design. Need to buy that.
-
Making a pot of coffee. Going to head out to get a load of mulch again shortly, I think. The rain finally stopped here.

What in the fuck is that?
In ‘Murcia we measure ranks of wood by the cord.
1 cord of wood = 4’ x 4’ x 8’ stacked = 128 cubic feet.
Though if it is cut and split, you use something like 110 or 120 cubic feet as a cord.
I haven’t been a pseudo lumberjack since 1991.

How long will that last you?Hopefully 1.5 winters. we have a reverse AC as well, but when it gets bloody cold, you gotta have real fire.

Monday morning E-mail deletions.

I awoke at 630a yesterday and instead of going back to sleep, I put my esxi system in to maintenance mode, added a 7tb raid10 (4x4tb drives) and upgraded from v6.0 to v6.7u3. After bringing everything back up, I created a 6tb datastore for Nethserver to use and then I spent an hour on how that wants to use mounted file systems vs shares, which I resolved. Then, by 10am, I began moving data from on of my plex libraries to the new datastore and left the house. New docking station for my WFH setup. Home, installed it, but now I need a gov't IT admin from the workstation division to put in a password for driver installs.
A good day, but I have 2 docks on my desk now and too many cables everywhere. Data moves didn't finish until almost 7pm. Plex is happy, though.
