Sorting my desk out and the cabling around it.
Then moving some VM's onto a RDX tape for backup, before destroying two hosts and resetting them up. Not sure if i'm going to use Hyper-V/ESXi Free/XenServer yet on them
Why ESXi Free, are you attempting to learn the interface?
No I just like ESXi
You should hate it for crippling you.

I thought technical debt was choosing the easier option over the best option
No, not at all. That's bad, but not technical debt.

Not sure if i'm going to use Hyper-V/ESXi Free/XenServer yet on themI'm assuming this is for a lab? If so, why not try all of them? Expose yourself to all of them. Setting up the environments, setting up datastores and connecting them with iSCSI or your connection of preference, setting up servers, backing servers up, etc. What errors will the environment throw if a datastore is down? How do you properly restore the datastore to the environment?

Looking at what ports are listening on our servers to see how I need to configure the built-in Windows firewall.

Yesterday i went home with my opensuse server at 12.1, all applications working except for search function in mediawiki application. Today i come in and, search is working? Thanks to whoever did that because that problem was pissing me off.

Magic.
Are there other IT people? Or was it like... a user just got frustrated?

My users suffer from magical thinking, which is a sign of multiple developmental disabilities.

@scottalanmiller Magic. No other IT people. I think what happened was i just was impatient. There was a version of libmysqlclient.so referenced in one of the config files that had its path changed during the upgrade. I changed the path in config, but it still wasnt working when i left. then something happened now it does work.

Wow is the DOL not involved in IT. No wonder the government can't hire IT at all. Look at the job role descriptions. Nothing we do in IT is realistically covered and there is a whole category of job titles for jobs that haven't existed in decades.

Looks like what I discovered a year ago still holds true, and I now know why. Altigen IP720 fails to register with FreePBX (or probably any non-Altigen PBX). The newly discovered "why" part is that when the phone is registering, it's trying to communicate to TCP 10032 rather than what I suspect should be UDP 5060.

@scottalanmiller Government incompetence??? I am thoroughly shocked!!!!
(not really, I'm a cynical bastard who would burn the entire government to the ground if I could)

You don't really mean that. I spend most of my day just loading cards into mainframes. </s>

I like how they actually take the time to define the MAJORITY of IT roles as being only available on mainframes and mini computers. If you run Windows, only 10% of DOL roles even exist for you.

I have origination with Twilio working with my FreePBX test. Termination is delivering quite a thrashing. I think I'll head home, nap my headache away and start back fresh this evening.

That reminds me, I have FreePBX work to be doing.

You can tell FreePBX to use that port.
I mean I would never want to, but you could.
Actually, if required, I would spin up a second FreePBX instance to handle those phones and then trunk it via IAX2 to the real PBX.
