    • RE: KVM nested virtualization ? stable and why would you ?

      @scottalanmiller

      Its posts/replies like this, makes me wonder why this site does not have ''mark as solution'' option given to the topic opener, and when done the topic will have green color for example.

      But maybe that will be a double edge sword, cause it will block future answers and thinking on the topic...

    • RE: First Time Server Buy . . . Build. . .

      @wrcombs

      Ryzen 7 1700 and disable SMT so you get 8/8 threads.

      Good AM4 mobo with M2 Storage + 8 SATA ports

      And thats it you can do alot starting from this, with alot of research you can enable ECC support on Ryzen 7 and on certain mobos

    • RE: Intel Sees Irrelevance in Its Future, Turns to Legal Threats Instead of Technology

      @mlnews

      I dont understand why all the comments are filled with AMD, this topic has little to do with AMD.

      When Windows 10 be able to run on ARM and not only from Qualcom, just like Android can run from:
      Mediatek chips/RockChip/Xiaomi ...etc
      thats when everything will change, the cost of those ARM chips can get low as 10$ per chip cause of the insane competition, and they include much more than traditional x86 CPU, and you really dont get innovation with 2 company monopoly, like AMD Ryzen is on par with intel performance but cheaper, and that is what after 5 years of AMD catching up.

      With ARM the whole playground will change, all my family and friends can live with ARM level of performance, my mom uses her smartphone for everything, she does not play games and stuff, so using that logic 1 or 2 in 10 people will only require the performance of x86 CPU, the rest will be served fine with ARM.

      Plus ARM:
      efficient
      cheaper
      will come with much more mobile options with plenty of battery
      has integrated modem usually.

      @wrcombs

      Best sales people are IT folks or people that are knowledgeable with the product.

      I dont know why companies hire sales instead, and to give you an example in one of my previous company the sales person would ask me IT question I provide answers, she post solutions then recommends product at the end as an IT expert.

    • Now that I learned KVM, should I also try XenServer ?

      Hello,

      I know sounds like very lazy question, but to spin it in another way:

      What do I gain from learning XenServer that KVM cant do ?

      Besides just learning another tool in my toolbox, which is always helpful (and I am pretty sure that I will install it shortly and fiddle with it), but is there anything specific XenServer can do ? that KVM cant.

      I'm comparing the latest KVM with latest XenServer 7.1 Free edition.

      Thanks.

    • IT female empowerment

      So this is happening alot in MENA and we are seeing more and more of it.

      3_1530217035023_2018-06-28 23_16_13-LinkedIn.png 2_1530217035023_2018-06-28 23_16_06-LinkedIn.png 1_1530217035023_2018-06-28 23_14_46-LinkedIn.png 0_1530217035023_2018-06-28 23_14_28-LinkedIn.png

      DOnt get me wrong I have nothing against the opposite sex (or maybe I am subliminally ) , but I am seeing way to much of those slogans and marketing stuff to the point i am starting to hate it (especially this one= break the ceiling, touch the sky like WTF Does that suppose to mean, sounds to me close to metal/rock band album name), and I dont get it what is having Vagina have to do with getting work.

      I understand that in MENA region women are not getting fair treatment, especially in the street and walking alone but that needs to be fixed and not hiring females just to have female staff, something just does not sound right.

      Also note in MENA it is perfectly fine to specify the sex/gender when hiring sadly, so you can say Female IT position, which are getting increasing, I think in US/Canada you cant get away with that crap, you just say IT position and you interview folks.

      Its called NPU, and everybody thinks (not the end user of-course) that it is half baked if not total gimmick.

      You scared me .. I thought you have like split personality or something, till i saw the port... I know i know its in the title but still..

      Hmm dc for 15 folks, If they are not bringing new people in the future, you can create alternative for this, especially since you can go around and install stuff on their machines, I assume they will be 15 as well.

      Interesting that Seagate created PMR drive with that storage and not
      HAMR or SMR

      "Seagate Announces Exos X14: a Helium-Filled 14 TB PMR HDD"

      It seems they back pedaled on both HAMR and SMR

    • Is XMPP Audio VoIP

      If I can drop in, and ask something:

      I use OpenFire with Pidgin for text chat communication, then I changed to Jitsi client, and Added plugin with openfire to support XMPP Jingle:

      The purpose of Jingle is to enable one-to-one, peer-to-peer media sessions between XMPP entities, where the negotiation occurs over the XMPP signalling channel and the media is exchanged over a data channel that is usually a dedicated non-XMPP transport.

      This allows users to communicate and audio call also video call each other in LAN environment, is this considered VOIP system/structure ?

    • RE: did HPE stripped down their basic iLO software?

      Lenovo IBM servers have the same thing, free only gives you basic stuff and health monitoring, while paid allows you to remote connect to console.

      I checked the license and its around ~300 USD.

      They all learn from each other.

    • Hyper-converged infrastructure (I missed the storage part)

      Hello,

      I'm trying to wrap my head around this idea, which I know have existed for so long, but only recently I have understand it more.

      As Wikipedia defines it :

      Hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI, also called a hyper-converged integrated system. HCIS) refers to integrating virtualization of storage and computing in a data center.[1]

      For me now, virtualizing computing is the easy part, cause I reckon they mean as VMs with CPU and RAM, ...etc

      I played a little with iSCSI and understood more on how storage can be remotely allocated via Asustor As1002T NAS, which actually had this functionality which was surprising being an affordable NAS.

      But I still dont know how the PROs do it, currently I use the storage build in the server to store the VMs (DAS) I reckon if I understood this correctly Hyper-converged infrastructure must be that the storage be residing on different server, and the VMs stored on the storage server ? is that what they call Hyper-converged infrastructure, cause it allows more flexibility .

      And can I do this with a home build NAS, like bunch of cheap disks and on top of them something like FreeNas or Openmediavaullt or openfiler (what do you recommend), and be storage server, then another server be KVM server, and the KVM will have the VMs located on the storage server would that qualify as Hyper-converged infrastructure

      Someone hit me with some sense
