@Pete-S said in Home Security Systems using WyzeCam and PoE Splitters: There are so many real surveillance cameras for little money that are made for the purpose already. For instance this outdoor model for less than $30: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Hikvision-DS-2CE16D0T-IRF-HD-1080P-IR-20m-IP66-2MP-Bullet-camera-outdoor/264073885252 To get real coverage you need different lenses in different applications and indoor and outdoor options as well. Installing cameras, wiring it all up and installing software and having storage, backups etc and keeping everything running is too much work to save a few bucks. The hikvision cameras apparently are utter crap and worth avoiding.

I put a regular 2.5" SSD in an USB3 enclosure years ago to get several hundreds MB/sec. Today maybe a portable SSD drive would a great thing to buy instead of inventing the wheel. Like Samsung T5 below.

I believe @JaredBusch had a post on this a while ago. Found it https://mangolassi.it/topic/17140/create-uefi-bootable-usb-from-fedora/

You can probably delete the thread now I don't even know what the original thread was! And that is why you have no concept of what you posted being completely wrong for the context of the thread. Honestly, it is pretty straight forward if you read the first post. https://mangolassi.it/topic/13595/out-of-band-management-does-it-mean-no-keyboard-at-all The first post also contains links back to the thread that @DustinB3403 pulled this from. I was responding the post quoted, though. Which was in the context of the entire thread. If you want to cherry pick something, then clearly, state as much. You did not.

Looking at this as a replacement. https://www.amazon.com/Sabrent-External-Lay-Flat-Docking-EC-DFLT/dp/B00LS5NFQ2/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1483744282&sr=8-3&keywords=sata+drive+dock&refinements=p_72%3A2661618011

Xen XAPI api is not running on this .... F8 to try and start it. So I cloned on a system that isn't critical, and when I try to boot off of the clone that is what I get. Any ideas?

As to a two-sever pool, interestingly Ive been working with SC at HA-Lizard over the last few weeks and we've come up with a better way (I think) to support a two-server pool. I've done a lot of torture testing and think there will be a more robust implementation in the near future. I'm particularly interested in that we now have several two-server pools and there is no need to expand just for the sake of supporting HA. Stay tuned for more news on this! For HA to work, you'd still of course need shared pool storage. https://discussions.citrix.com/topic/381470-two-node-pool-options-with-direct-attached-storage/?p=1943606

@DustinB3403 said: Can I just plug this bootable into any old desktop and see if it'll light up? Should I expect any issues? Can you, yes It won't damage anything. Will it work? Not likely. You can't do this with any other OS or hypervisor, you can't do it with Xen either. That's why Xen has to be installed rather than there just being an image that you run. The installation process is the process of customizing it for your hardware.

@Danp That might be exactly what I'm looking for. It certainly seems like it is. I'll have to test it tomorrow when at the office.

With PuTTY you can. Care to elaborate? PuTTY comes with a command line SCP client. I never noticed / knew that! Took me like a decade or so before someone pointed it out to me recently too it's robocopy all over again

@dafyre said: Hey Joel, Have you considered a USB over IP type product? I've just been made aware of them and haven't had a chance to use one yet... but basically it is a USB connection with a Network card, and whatever server you want to use it has to run a software package to do so... It's worth taking a look at. Interesting product. What a great idea.

Nice.. find, thanks. notice it says SSD, not even 2.5 in drives. You can buy standard USB enclosures for 2.5" drives and they never need external power. when I posted that it I was responding to the title of the sale indicating SSD - so I jumped the gun a bit on the 2.5.. my bad.

If you ever need high quality cables that just work right every time: http://www.bluejeanscable.co.uk/ (american .com site seems to be down, IDK why) If you need bulk or cheap cable that usually works alright: http://www.linhawstore.com/

I hit the store last night and spent $23 on a 32 GB, not point in not just having plenty of extra space.

@thecreativeone91 Ditto, though I recall one particular intel chipset (945? low end P4 skt468/775) that would consistently barf when this was attempted.

@IRJ said: @Dashrender said: @IRJ said: I contacted Samsung and they feel that its the cable or the charger. I dont feel that it is since I get same results with other chargers and cables, but they are telling me to bring my phone in to my local wireless store. huh? they aren't just going to send you a replacement? I was told they dont send out replacement chargers or cables. They only service phones. Wow, that would be like Dell telling me that they won't replace my power cord while I still have a valid warranty. Even the batteries are normally covered for the first year by the warranties. Sounds like another reason to bail on Samsung.

@Dashrender said: nope Ok, so no signal conflict. This is quite perplexing.
