@travisdh1 Does that imply that each guest needs a minimum number of cores assigned?

No, you just need to cover the cores on the host.

Has anyone tried Qradar CE or full Qradar on their network? I've only used it at work, and that version is robust. I'm wondering if it's comparable to Graylog or other log ingestion tools. Maybe there's a better tool for the same purpose?

If it's open source why not but.p up those thresholds a bit and go to town?

It's OS? I never found the license info.

I never said it was, I asked if it is.

They use docker on a centos platform distributed via an ova. Licensing is based on events per seconds.

Fixed.

Stay Safe Everyone!

@scottalanmiller DBAs. There is still a prevalence of thought that they must have lots of separate drives for any number of purposes. These 'drives' all go to the same two or three luns, and some drives are in the same datastore, so.... splitting drives is just splitting hairs. It makes it easier to see database size, though a good DBA should be able to manage that without complication.

Found it -- test-compliance.

@Grey

If you wanted to show the progress % you could do something like this as well:

$quantity = $systems.count $i = 0 foreach ($server in $systems){ //stuff $i = $i + 1 $progress = 100 * $i / $quantity }

Another trick is to not count it at all, just print a dot (".") for each iteration.
.........

Tested and this needs a try/catch for a divide by zero. The math is also off.

You probably had --$quantity still in there. It decreases $quantity by one each time it executes.

But use @Obsolesce example.

Here's an example:

Neat. How would I call call that function from within the script itself; just & do-function?

The same way I did on line 24.

Ok, I have to test this.

I just noticed, that on line 16, the $timeDate... variable is supposed to be $Something

I did it too quick and didn't catch it when I put it in at the end.

Thank you. I hadn't thought to check the logs, which the Spiceworks link mentions.

Well, it's crucial to keep them warm and evenly moist until they germinate, then give them plenty of sunshine until they're big enough to transplant...

@krzykat Xpenology is a great tool to learn Synology with, or to play but I would never use it in a "production" environment (yep even home). Get a real Synology with support or as others have said a server with RAID, linux dist of choice, and Samba. Myself, Im taking one of the 'servers" someone left in my junk pile and loading Proxmox and from there setting up a shared server of some sort.

@jt1001001 said in ManageEngine ADSelfService:

We use ServiceDesk at work for ticketing never was able to get SSL to work, gave up and put it behind our Kemp load balancer/reverse proxy

I originally had ServiceDesk working with an imported GoDaddy certificate, no issues.

But there was no good way to do it with Let's Encrypt when I moved to that. Also, I really needed the Reverse Proxy anyway.

@dbeato said in GPO for compatibility mode:

@Grey said in GPO for compatibility mode:

A previous admin created a gpo to alter and add an entry under the hive HKEY_CURRENT_USER in Key path Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Ranges\Range66 which forces a single entry for compatibility mode. I've spent a lot of time testing and, while the setting is to apply once and not again, it doesn't seem to allow a user to add more sites to compatibility mode and keep that addition after a reboot.

Has anyone successfully created a GPO for IE11 to enable CM for users to add items, while also pushing a list of our own? Is there a best method around for achieving this goal?

I have not, I only keep adding it through GPO (In the medical field which they have many sites as this).

Ditto - Just have to keep adding them via GPO. So glad we barely use IE 11 anymore.

~Have you considered upgrading to 2016 Exchange server?~

I tried. Management has this 0 downtime thing and won't let me do things. It's a little infuriating.

Sounds like an entirely different thread.
