This forum spells it all out for you

@bnrstnr Ok I get that. Wouldnt using something like a real time chat or ticketing work better to let chef's see the orders that come in? Would save tons of money.

Ah, sorry, I thought you meant literal recipes lol

That's what he mentioned in the second post, like all the fast food places use monitors to display the orders instead of printing. But it's not viable unless you have a certain number of customers

@marcinozga Exactly, you don't have access because you aren't part of the beta program! Sign up for the beta program, and you will see endless posts about how these aren't ready for production and all kinds of people having the same exact RMA issues as you.

There's obviously something wrong in the distribution channel for all of these resellers to already have this product available.

Edit: this is the official aircube forum, there are hundreds of posts in there.

@RojoLoco LOL! If these audits were conducted by Microsoft proper I would agree with you. They farm them out to their vendors, N3 in my case, who only care about making sure you buy something... Not sure how I will appease the knee biters this time, probably buy a few extra Windows server CALs or something.. everything desktop is Microsoft 365 E3 now.

Last time they recommended that I buy something and I just told the guy that I disagreed with him that was the end of it. The entire thing is apparently voluntary

@bnrstnr be nice to have sflow on the switch

I guess, if you're into that kind of thing lol

I've got an old CRT monitor sitting in the corner that could probably do the trick

Where is my RAID mounted on XCP-NG?

Dell Workstation -
240GB SSD - Installed XCP-NG on this.
Deployed XenOrchestra

Created a RAID with 2x 1TB Disks.

Used XenOrchestra to add a SR via HBA

Now i want to create a folder call ISO on that SR and upload images to, but i can't find where the SR is when i either SSH into the Host or use WinSCP. I'm sure it was in /run/sr-mount but can't find the folder.

This should probably be it's own post.

Are you saying that you were able to add the new SR successfully, you just can't find it now that it's setup?

If there's a basement/crawlspace you should be able to easily run a new cable and put the AP wherever it's used most or in the center of the house.

@travisdh1 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

On the command line of the host, you can use df -h to show all the currently mounted file systems.

this is what I was going to say next...

If you can see your RAID SR there, you can then do a New > Storage > ISO SR Local

Looks like they have a means to copy from the drives directly connected to a machine running Ubuntu

@hobbit666 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Because i may need to create VM's from other machines so having the ISO locally is best.
done a df -h but can't see the "MAIN" SR.
Might give Hyper-V a go

Are you running df -h on the host or on the XO VM? If you can't see the SR on the host, IDK how you're able to be running VMs on it

Also, you can definitely migrate to dissimilar hardware models... Scroll about half way down

You will lose some settings, but the data should remain intact.

Edit: Looks like the source and destination machines would need to be on the same firmware version... which could be tricky if you don't know or didn't keep up with the updates.

I used to when I first started using Samsung SSDs, but I haven't used it in a couple years and haven't noticed a difference.

@bbigford said in Uses for VPS:

How much space are you using with NextCloud? What kinds of content are you storing out there? Can't imagine you're streaming from it...

We have a 500GB storage instance on Vultr for $20 a month. We primarily use it for sharing CAD drawings with customers.

@WrCombs said in Samsung magician - Thoughts?:

What are you using now?

Nothing, I don't feel like anything is necessary with current OSes. I was only using it to confirm TRIM, AHCI, etc. on older Windows

@wrx7m said in Uses for VPS:

I got one a few months ago after checking several times a day, for months.

This is how I got mine too, although it only took me like a week. I signed up for the notifications multiple times and never once got an email from them.

@zachary715 said in Samsung magician - Thoughts?:

I still install it every time. It's how you get firmware updates for your SSD as well as being able to make some performance tweaks if you wish. I generally use it as a performance benchmark though and look for firmware updates

Have you ever actually seen firmware updates? I ran it for years and never saw a single one.

E5480 from the Dell

We just got one of our Controls Engineers a 5580, really nice laptop, I was slightly jealous. The 5590 just came out, and that's probably even better.

The WD15 dock took like 2 month to deliver for it, so I was installing different flavors of linux on it and playing around before I gave it to him, because he really didn't want it without the dock.
