Why have I been awake since 3:30am?
I went to bed at 2:30 and woke at 6 - does that count?
Yeah about the same. 10:30-3:30
-
@travisdh1 no, unfortunately not.
The VM's on the host are running without issue, so I'll take a full backup, shutdown the VM's and reboot the hosts.
-
@travisdh1 actually, on host 2 yes.
Let me retest on host 1.
-
On Host 1 no access

Stick with the full backup and reboot plan, I was just wondering if DOM0 ran out of space on whatever it's using for /var/log?
-
Planned downtime will be at 5 tonight
-
XAPI has reported errors, I've got host 2 back to a semi-functional, albeit "XAPI is not running" on the host.
Rebooting hopefully will fix the issue.
-
Happy Friday!
-
This topic here list the same issue I see on host2 (state.db has an old time stamp)
Going to do a reboot tomorrow of the hosts in the cluster. Will perform a full backup first for good measure.

Man, this 8 drive RAID10 is fast. It is absolutely blasting through 215 Windows updates.
Spinning rust? That'll get you pretty good performance.
Especially at 15k RPM.

Downloading Black Ops III. It's free to play this weekend on Steam

Also, on sale:

I just got a box of swag and snacks from Barkly. And a $35 gift card for AMC theatres. Not bad.

...and I just had a great conversation with the boss about virtualization and why we should be using it. I think I will have some hefty hardware to virtualize our whole infrastructure (development testing environments included) by the end of the year. Today is a truly great Friday... the weather is awesome today, I'm going home in a half hour, and I finally got a partial green light for making VMs.

I was just going to comment pretty much the same thing.

Sadly, no. But because they had lots of trouble with VMware a few years back, management has shyed away from virtualization altogether. I have managed to change that attitude by just wearing them down with facts. It's past due, but a victory nonetheless.

Probably due to my embedded background.
Speaking of that, the owner approved my project to build something for UPS monitoring. Going to order that RaspberryPi 3 kit later (probably tomorrow) and get this going.
Awesome. Will be a lot of fun.
Once i have this under my belt, I may seriously look at redoing it with a cheaper board and parts for wider roll out. THis is the best thing I can think of for a first project though.
Don't forget to make a thread on it. I know I'm interested.
As for something smaller and cheaper. I really think that the ESP8266 or the new ESP32xx would work nicely.
