      Someone needs to seriously automate this.

      Don't you already have a SAM-bot? Hopefully you're doing better than Microsoft's last 2 iterations.

          XS doesn't care, it is all focused on VDI. XCP is where any innovation like this might happen, but isn't going to.

          It's more likely that Suse would solve this in the Xen space.

              The live setup process to make other hypervisors trivial to install in a live way.

                Gotcha.

                  The only Hypervisor I trust enough to install to SD cards right now is ESXi. If you're using anything else, just save yourself the headaches and install it in OBR.

                  Actually, I almost never install Hyper-V to the ORB10.

                  I usually pop the case open and find the unused SATA port and connect whatever random SATA drive I have available to be the 😄 drive and hold Hyper-V.

                  If there is no way to plug in a SATA drive directly, then I use the OBR10.

                    QNAP, Inverted Pyramid, RAID 5 on consumer disks. And hitting UREs.

                        More realistically we've simply stopped searching it out. . .

                          A sad commentary on the state of things.

                              Make a thread, and they will come.

                                  The answer to his actual question is to roll a d20 to see if you hit. 😛

                                          Taking bets, but we just know that this is the cardinal sin of AD. How do so many people, so often, deploy AD without knowing about the names that have to be used? If you get taught one thing about AD, that's it. If you look up AD problems, it's the one thing you always find. It implies that most people deploy AD without having ever seen so much as a discussion about it. How do they even know what AD is or how to acquire it?

                                            Used a SAN for a NAS task. Has no idea what a SAN is. Overfilled his SAN (not his LUN) and made the whole unit go read only. No means to clear up space because it's a LUN that was larger than his SAN capacity.
