Got a next-release Xen Orchestra built in VirtualBox. Get it exported and happy geek
Nice, but why VB?
Because I didn't want to build it on the slowest internet this side of dialup. And I can import the .vmdk drive into just about anything, in addition to being able to run it anywhere VirtualBox is.
I suppose I could see how that could be beneficial...
Mostly it was the not wanting to build it while using very slow internet. The export is all of 2.4GB, so a usb stick and an import job on the other XenServer, and I'll have XO at that site up and running in a half-hour instead of all day.
And the proliferation begins.
I'll bring the stick with me to MangoCon, I didn't connect any servers yet so it's still bone stock fresh install. The sneakernet will rule them all!

Sounds hard. You mentioned your poor line before, but it feels like being back in 1999. I'm currently planning for some offsite backup / syncing of VMs using our 10G uplink...

I'd say don't get me started, but I'm already started. Cleveland has a 100GB network in place by the same "Public Non-Profit" that has fiber running right outside my door. Yet the fastest speed we can get at home is 50/5. The biggest joke I've seen in cable marketing isn't from Comcast or TimeWarner, but MCTV (the local cableco) advertising 'DOCIS 3.0 speed!' '10mb!'. To be fair, they did stop that stupid bit after I sent them a nastygram saying "You realize that's DOCIS 1.0 speed, right?"
I should get a business license just to see what it would cost me for a direct feed from Level3.... actually........ might have to seriously consider that, business licenses don't cost all that much, and the fiber is literally on my front lawn.

Oh, we could get that sort of connection, it'd just cost more than our total monthly sales.

plus you need to manage other things too with faster lines, like adding "4K" and "3D" as keywords for your
p*rnfiltererm blacklist to ensure productivity. From this point of view, your slow line safes you some work

Our roommate is walking the stage at the Miss Texas USA bikini competition in Houston right now.

@scottalanmiller are you here in my area now?

I think he's relatively close, he said he was 5 hours away about 8 hours ago

Yup

@MarigabyFrias is through security and heading to her gate now in Panama City. It's a smaller airport so pretty easy to deal with. Nothing even remotely comparable to Bush Intercontinental that she is flying into in two hours up in Houston. That's a pretty big airport. All of Panama would fit twice in a single terminal there.

Roommate has her interview this morning, did her bikini competition last night. The word from the show is that it went really well and that she rocked it. The final votes for Miss Texas USA are Sunday.

SW is getting slammed with spam this morning. Nearly every post this past hour is gibberish.

Trying to gather information for my upcoming talk, I remember the presentation made by @Katie for her SW presentation 2014.
