Forgot to post this Sunday. It was my birthday and a 13 year old made this cake

Release - XCP-ng 8.0

The big release is here. After about a month of QA on the Release Candidate, XCP-ng 8.0 is now available and can be safely used in production environments.

Think some people need a time out, and go in the corner to think about what they say

Good job i'm not on call this holiday!!!

Hi i'm new here

35 (soon to be 36) IT pro from Mid Wales. 3 Kids a wife 2 cats and a dog
Work for a Mid size company, 1000 or so employees 300-400 devices over 45 sites.

What about mounting the equipment so it's easy to take down?

So when a Cat 5 is heading your way, take the stuff down store it and put it back up and off you go?

With the speed I've been seeing some of @scottalanmiller reply's coming in not just on here but on SW as well got me thinking.

Does he actually do a job? or is his time spent on the forums giving free advice to people that would cost ££££ in consultancy fees lol.

Don't get me wrong i'm sure like 100's of people i'm grateful for the advice and the amount I learn just from his posts and articles.

Yeah i used to use a powershell script for this.

Not used it for a while so not sure what it does in modern versions.

Watching more Doctor Who, while feeling a bit tipsy after a pint of Stella and a 14oz Angus Steak

Finding my self using SW less and less. Wish they had a "unread" button like we have here

Having a cuppa wondering why is it only 3:43 and not 5:00!!!! so I can go home and watch Marvel Films with the wife

Crazy things kids say:-

Daddy why did the name that invented KITKAT's spell KAT wrong it should be CAT!

my new propellers have arrived to fix my drone woop

F**k it i'm going to be naughty (for the rest of the day) for the greater good of my sanity

Going to apply a "trail" license for FULL ESXi so I can backup the VM's on my host. Kill the host! and reinstall with XenServer in the production lol
