@tim_g late to party. can this help with your original plan?
Yes, something like that but a little more current would have been perfect!
A lot less moving parts with something like that... I'd be able to cut out needing another VM and Yosemite license.

here in Italy there is no real difference in price buying from dell of any online shop (any brand). so I usually buy monitors with pcs.
Yeah nuc are nice, but if you assembly one you also had to add the windows tax (considering standard office workflow, linux is not cosidered here) and it doesn't worth anymore.
I'm currently working with a microsoft oem. then they deploy nucs internally and it really worths it!
So you do the Intel NUCS and like them? I dont know if there is a Dell or HP equivalent system.
well "I'm working with" stand for the fact I've chaged my job and now I'm a consultant in my "comfort zone": machine automation and vision.
They deploy Intel NUCs internally and they are ok with specs: put a cheap ssd in and enough ram. No win tax as they - as oem - have a huge number of licenses ready to use.
Dell and hp had nucs - as others have (e.g. zotac) - but win caused the price to raise. also dell and hp provide nucs in the home users market no business afaik. btw I think they have discontinued them, but your regional site can sell different stuff from mine.

@jn19 said in Implement new Active Directory across Azure, on-prem, offsite, and cell-data IoT devices:
You're very correct about the automation PCs--they're a horror show as far as security goes.
They autologon with admin privileges, and they rarely get updates due to bandwidth and manageability issues. To be clear, the automation PCs don't actually need to be joined to our organization Active Directory, and it'd probably be best if they weren't. If there's a different solution available to monitor/patch/secure them, I'm all for it. Unfortunately, we're stuck with Windows, as a lot of the automation tools we have to interface with only have Windows drivers and utilities available.
unfortunately it is not a good idea to keep them update. unless you can recover them.
In theory if you can filter security updates only, those machines should be NOT subject to relevant alterations, but automation software could relay on specifica behaviours (even if the imolementor doesn't know) and any change can be risky.
at least, if you have access to the machines and vendor doesn't put a veto, just keep an image of the system before any update (with stuff like veeam free agent + a recovery usb pen - made by veeam) and then and only then patch the system.
manually.
I mean how many of those systems do you have?! treat them as a server patch manually and never do automatic updates on them.
just my 2 cents.
actually you should keep your backups both in and out of your facilities.
then, what kind of topology do you have? are you backing up clients or is this a database?!
which price range? you are talking about NASes. If you mean those "cheap" appliances I think you can think about a cloud solution like ...
hey @coliver just give me the time to answer!
+1 for backblaze B2, just thinking about same thing. It has retention therefore you can backup stuff and keep copies
OR
if your data are highly compressible just compress them and backup with stuff like veeam agent on a local proxy and then push on B2 without retention (veeam will keep retention)
did you looked at this?
it uses the Remove method and seems quite straightforward to me. You just need to rework the for loop or simply add a counter to it to know which row has to be purged.

The automation PCs are just running WIn7 Pro and Win10 Ent... they'll join a domain no problem.
Just because they run an OS that is able to be joined to AD, it does not follow that they can be joined to AD.
Equipment like this comes with all kinds of caveats and restrictions from the manufacturers.You don't buy a $4,000,000 printing press controlled by a Windows desktop OS and just join it to AD and apply whatever policies you want.
in my experience win on automation is a big headache... moslty automation people don't know anything about IT ADDC and the so. Also windows pcs on board are very ofter a security hole (autologin with no password as admin and so on).
keeping it a far as possible from network is a good idea (source: have been for 7 year with automation firms which sold win pcs on board of machines).

I'd rather the US senate work on paving my roads and repairing the bridges then grilling Apple of their product design.
Such a waste of resources for this.
Sorry people, you want a 3 year old phone that will last all day, or be blazing fast and last for 30 minutes?
well in EU some idiot in the EU parliament has been discovered on porn sites and then all that s**it on cookies raised up, boring us everytime we enter a website. I don't know this for real but I would bet this is what happened.
Also they have discussed in the past what a marmalade was and what a jam. ('couse we call them diffrently in states, but in the end we still eat the right one...).
This Apple this is border line ti me @scottalanmiller is right but for sure more relevant things happen in real life...
last trilogy I've read was tad williams's shadowmarch. then stayed a lot of months without a reading.
just bought a new one last night for my kindle: The Name of the Wind (The Kingkiller Chronicle)

welcome! we even print emails and keep paper version stored for months. not legal stuff at all. just customers' orders
I hope every subject has got an adequate number of pills and that they have not reused the same one all the time across all subjects X-(
nice if you use hyperv instead of virtual box. useless on servers.
nothing wrong, just a question: which is the expected audience of hyper-v?!

Too bad ovs isnt in the repos for RHEL/CentOS. You can set up these private networks and connect them through a VXLAN with ovs. That way you can have something like a separate dev network on the same hosts and they can communicate between hosts.
Not available in the epel repo?
That is apparently the case unless my google--fu isn't up to snuff
Nope. It is available in Fedora though. If you want to install it you have to manually build the RPMs. While not hard to build it would be a pain to maintain updates.
OVS is used by oVirt so maybe the centos ovirt repo has it (or the ovirt stable repo)
@olivier may I suggest to adjust the payload from "XenServer build from the sources" in "XenServer built from the sources"?!
@ccwtech said in Network setup - Hyper-V:
The way the app is installed is that essentially all the server is doing is hosting a file share. You place a shortcut to the .exe file on the desktop.
can you elaborate this bit. where the application files reside?! when you say access app via netwrok are you talking about a client server topology or are you doing something more exotic?!
