@anthonyh Just use Veeam Endpoint with the server on 😉

It's been easily a decade since I worked with that, I'm afraid.

Welp, rebooting the host that the VM resided on did not clear up any disk space. Hmmm...

You know what I just realized...the Task Scheduler gives you the "Next Run Time". I should've just looked at that...

D'oh!

Here's a way to get Yesterday today and tomorrow... I'm not a super proficient Perl programmer.. but htis is what I could cobble together...

#!/usr/bin/perl my $today=time(); #Todays time in seconds since ~Jan 1, 1970 my $yesterday=localtime($today - 86400); #Subtract 86,400 seconds (one whole day) my $tomorrow=localtime($today + 86400); #Add 86,400 seconds (one whole day) $today=localtime($today); #Convert today into a proper date/time format. print "Yesterday: $yesterday\n\r"; print "Today: $today\n\r"; print "Tomorrow: $tomorrow\n\r";

@BRRABill said in Backup MX or no?:

So, to answer the question posted about that article, if you are interested in making sure your e-mail gets delivered, then ignore that article.

The article is fine, you just have to read it to see the context. This is the context setting piece:

They do this as secondary records usually point to email servers that deploy little or no security checks such as those you’d find at some ISP’s for example. This encourages the spamming servers to keep sending even more as they can see it’s being accepted and so the vicious circle continues.

Basically we see people seeing up a second MX and not maintaining it.

So instead of telling people to get a clue and manage their servers, they say to just do things poorly. It's more of "we assume that you won't take good advice, so we'll give you more bad advice based on that assumption."

If you truly assume that you simply won't properly maintain the second SMTP MTA, then sure, don't have one. But that applies at a much more general level. Let me provide a best practice that supersedes all of this:

Best Practice: Never run a server or IT resource that you do not properly maintain.

I'm very much a Linux noob, so I don't know what command to use. But I'd just use a regular expression alone or perhaps in combination with some other command to get the desired text here. In Powershell I would use the -match operator and/or the Select-String cmdlet.

And that didn't take your VMs down?

@DustinB3403 Thanks for the info. Like I mentioned originally, blades are not my first choice when it comes to server hardware. I'm just dealing with what I was dealt, and so far it hasn't been bad.

In any rate, my post was not looking for approval of my hardware, but a question about a BIOS setting. As much as I'd love to contiue this debate as I'm honestly and genuinely curious, I suspect my thread has officially been derailed...

Anybody have any input on my OP? 😃

Sorry I wasn't looking to debate, just inform. As for the OP, I wouldn't enable this feature unless you are certain you need it. It appears to be designed for custom OS's including Red Hat, Suse and Microsoft Windows HPC Server.

So I wouldn't enable this feature.

Aha! Thanks!! I swear I did attempt some reasearch before posting. I'll leave it disabled, then.

@RojoLoco Our might be similar. We subscribed for HIS development so we could interface with the mainframes that other agencies still run (yuck). Though maybe we'll get lucky. It looks like SQL 2005 is ~$100 on eBay at a quick glance. I'm not sure my boss will want to put $1 into this old DB, but we'll see!

I'm not clear what you are asking. Do you want a list of ALL files under said /directory or are you looking for only certain ones?

Every single file under /this/directory.

Oh okay.

find /dir -type f -print

Where /dir is the directory name in question. See if that gives you want you want.

That gives me the absolute path, but no date. I found this command that gets me a little closer:

find /this/directory -type f -exec stat -c "%n %y" {} ;

Gives me this:

/this/directory/data/EFile/DOC/227349_FS86478.pdf 2011-08-19 10:21:22.000000000 -0700

But it's not ideal, yet. I'd need to delimit the file and timestamp with something other than a space. I would love to eliminate the decimal on the seconds as well as the timezone, but I can work around those.

Easier to work with the date if you use UNIX time instead of a human readable format. And you can use the cut command to trim off anything trailing that you don't want.

Is the ordering the same as shown? depending on the ordering it may be used for filtering down the statements.

I got my answer. It turns out OSPF applies a default metric to readvertised EIGRP routes, but EIGRP does not apply a default metric to readvertised OSPF routes. So I modified my EIGRP config like so:

router eigrp 100
redistribute static
redistribute ospf 3 metric 1000000 0 255 1 1500
no auto-summary
no eigrp log-neighbor-changes
network 10.0.0.0
network 172.19.0.0

BOOM, works!

for the username on the application, have you tried domain\username or [email protected]?

I did try [email protected], but I did not try domain\username. I'll give that a shot.

No go unfortunately. I'm going to ask the vendor if the app supports SAML based authentication. I'm pretty sure the answer is going to be no, but it's worth an ask.

So many things use snapshots under the hood, space can grow and shrink pretty rapidly in confusing ways.
