IMHO, those four are one in the same and I still believe the statement is correct. Yes, One person can be used as a basis for the group. Happens all the time in business, politics and world society.

What makes them one in the same?

Numerous intertwined Ideologies.

I understand. Citizenship is a difficult concept to grasp... One person from a group not being born in America makes a statement true for 3 other people because they share the same ideologies. You should loosen up your red hat a bit. It seems to be cutting off circulation to your brain.

Being an American is a difficult concept to grasp. Being a citizen is fairly easy.

Alright, well I think that your ideologies align with these 3 Russians that I once met, so you should to go back to where you came from... Makes perfect sense :thumbs_up:

Trump steps up attack on 'US-hating' congresswomen

US President Donald Trump has redoubled his attack on four Democratic congresswomen, accusing them of "hating our country".
"If you are not happy, if you are complaining all the time, you can leave," he told a heated news conference outside the White House.

Go back where? To the state they were born in? They're US CITIZENS.

How stupid is this guy?

Stupidest argument ever... "If you don't like it just leave..." orrrrr maybe I'll try to make things better? :thumbs_up:

@JaredBusch said in Server 2012R2 DHCP reservations problem with my VOIP equipment?:

I never use reservations for phones.

Specifically with Yealink phones, I set the DHCP hostname value in the config file.

So when I am on the network, I can easily just ping ext103.domain.local and shit..

Or If I look at the DHCP server lease list, I see the hostnames listed as ext101, ext103, etc.

Love this idea

Do you guys even use reservations for phones? I rarely even touch them, so I guess it wouldn't be that big of a pain in the ass to just let them get a random address from the pool.

I do not. I don't know why you would need to.

idk I guess I just thought it would be easier to manage them. When we first got the phones I set them all up manually from the web interface and there was a lot of experimenting going on, I always knew extension 103 would be x.x.x.103, etc. if somebody had an issue, I knew their extension and automatically knew the IP of the phone.

Holy cow!

OK - cellphone video - uh.. why was the guy videoing it, unless he knew it was going to happen?

It looks like he was recording a monitor from his NVR or something, you can see a timestamp in the top left corner moving around.

EDIT: just saw the end of the video. 100% this lol

@Dashrender Yeah, the gateway was different back when the reservations were made a couple years ago. I just tried another phone by deleting the reservation and recreating it, then rebooting and it gets the proper address.

The other gateway has been gone for at least 6 months. The phones have been for sure powered off multiple times for a few minutes. Whenever I update my poe switch firmware they power off for the duration of the reboot, sometimes up to 5 minutes I would guess. I just unplugged one phone for 10+ min and it still has the wrong address. I even reset another phone to factory settings and it still took the wrong address. That's why I think it's something with the DHCP server.

@dbeato said in Server 2012R2 DHCP reservations problem with my VOIP equipment?:

What do you have for the dhcp reservations?

What do you mean? Just the normal reservation setup on Windows Server. Hostname, IP address, MAC, and Supported Types: "both". I can't find any presence of my old router which the VOIP stuff seems to be clinging onto.

003 Router in scope options points to the correct gateway address, too.

I setup a test FreePBX instance on Vultr the other day and I was having problems getting my phones to register so I started troubleshooting and found that all of my phones are getting the wrong gateway address from DHCP. All of the phones have reservations in Server 2012R2 DHCP server. So I deleted the reservation for one of the phones and made a new reservation with the same address, rebooted the phone, and it took all the proper settings this time around. This seems to only affect my phones (Yealink phones, a couple Cisco SPA112's, snom PA1) that I've noticed, none of my other reservations (linux servers, printers, etc.) are taking the wrong gateway address...

Is it expected behavior for old reservations to keep the settings of when they were first made, or is something funky going on with my DHCP server? Is this just coincidence and actually a problem with the phones?

Is there something I can do to get my phones to take the correct gateway address without recreating all of the reservations?

Am I missing something else entirely? Who knows :man_shrugging:

@black3dynamite said in Having sluggish performance on my Xen Server VM's, looking for suggestions to boost performance:

@DustinB3403 Been a while since I've used XenServer, wouldn't he need to power down the VMs, unplug the block device, and then use LVM to expand the storage?

I have to look up the exact process but that sounds about right but because it's not worth it and he's trying to troubleshoot another issue I would literally just create a separate sr and call it thick provision and leave it at that

I don't know what I'm saying - but I'm asking anyway - does he even have LVM?

Xen server supports LVM but he may not have set it up for his storage repository

It's the default to not use LVM, right?

The default is LVM... They should probably update that.

Or try the official documentation?

The reason I had said Windows was a requirement was because the two owners (both in their 70s) are familiar with Windows.

This is reason enough to never want Windows lol They'll be tinkering like crazy and installing all kinds of crap on their POS terminals.

They wouldn't see Windows, They'd see the Software for the POS only if the POS was working correctly.

So their preference for Windows is irrelevant, we're back to any operating system and hardware since they won't see it anyway.

Down 17 lbs. My goal right now is 220 lbs. Started like June 4th-ish.

The first week isn't even fair, it's so misleading... I stopped drinking pop and eating like an asshole and melted off like 10 pounds.

If I get there, I'll probably set a new, lower, goal.

@IRJ account hacked? This feels like the recent "looking for duct cleaning in wherever, TX?" posts :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

My prescription lenses have some kind of coating on it that is supposed to block the "harmful blue light rays," but I've never tried the yellow tinted glasses. I can definitely see a difference looking at my monitor through my lenses vs. naked eyes. I would say for the better.

My opinion could be skewed by the fact that I've needed prescription glasses for a while now and finally just got them. My eyes feel so much better when I'm going to sleep. Way less fatigued.

He doesnt test before upgrading and he is building his work PC out of his own money. Sounds like a great place to work.

Yeah, there were so many issues... Then with "zero IT budget" he is up and changing his virtualization infrastructure?? okie dokie.
