And it comes to no surprise that one our IBM SAN systems went belly up today... Took out data that 3 VMs connected to.... And the backups, if you want to call them that, were stored on the SAME SAN... Ugh...
Now this is smart...

I actually did stream that, despite it not being the types of areolas I usually enjoy

What are you using for the Terminal Server portion of the build? X2Go or something else?
-
@dafyre going to be X2Go. Yes.

Got a vertical mouse. It's a kind of weird, but fairly comfortable at the same time.

Wondring the best way to "make" a "gold image" of CentOS7 to create a Template for XenServer for rapid deployment ???
-
@stacksofplates That mouse is only $20 on Amazon, I might just try it out.
I've noticed some strain in my wrist recently too.

Create a template from the VM.

Create a template from the VM.
But how do I set-up the "Template VM" ?? like with windows before imaging you run sysprep to wipe UID and computer name etc so when you start it asks.
Is there a similar think with Linux? Or do I create a "generic" Linux machine when I deploy just edit the config files and change IP and hostname etc?

I make a generic Linux image and set it to DHCP. It generally has all updates done and some of our basic required software. When it gets deployed we set the IP address and hostname.

Well the process in XS is pretty straight-forward to create a template from a VM. In terms of "sysprepping" it I'm not sure why you'd have to.
It's a VM, hardware agnostic by design.
Each time you create a VM from the template it will get a new IP etc.
