Here I thought I was the only one with that exact reaction!
“I watched the whole thing. I turned it on and at some point I said, ‘The sonofabitch isn’t gonna get up.’ So, I went and got some scotch and I sat down and stared at Ron sitting by a fire drinking scotch and I drank scotch by a fire and stared right back at him.”

I earned some new features today apparently... Highlighted to show them off.

Thinking of changing my title to "Senior Infrastructure Engineer"
As I want to concentrate on looking after everything Server layer, Switches, End User device connections!!!! and all the cables between. Then leave the "please change my password" to a junior support tech person!(I put this End User device connections!!!! like that as I want to look after the PC and connection i.e. hardware not office!)

This isn't event IT related!! And how did anyone get it wrong?!

Why can't I find any documents on trouble shooting the unitrends Linux agent????

Did you buy from a partner? The partner should be able to help you out.

Using the FREE version, just find the unitrends docs very unhelpful.
Got the agents running now - not sure why they want to work (could of been me getting the worng IP with Hostname ) -

sigh No upside down ducks for you.
So there is some quality control, but... that might be just because I posted the actual question here. You know, snooping and all. It was fun while it lasted -
Wondering how much it's costs to get @scottalanmiller to come In and talk hardware refresh with us I really want to move from 3 hosts + SAN, to Scale system. But I know our current MSP will befell the board and get them to buy a SAN.

Won't three new hosts and a new SAN cost more than a Scale cluster? Plus explain to them the problems with IPODs and how Scale isn't one.

So you have your resume ready to go, right? Because if you know that, you know exactly how valuable they see you as.

what is your role in the organization? Assuming you are a full time IT person, who is running the MSP? Normally I would ask if you really need an MSP when you have an onsite full time IT person, but perhaps there is enough work to warrant that. But perhaps they aren't really an MSP to you, but instead are consultants, once that your management appears to value more than you.
