    • RE: PERC H730P Mini - Multiple LV's

      Xen Virtual Appliance file. I think it is just a container for ovf types.
      edit: it is a container for ova types, which are containers for ovf types.

      Yes I remember, but it did work as type lvm eventually. Not sure why it didn't on install, ive not had a problem with it yet myself.
      Also, is there a 'Guided using entire disk with lvm' option in XS installer?(I cant remember) perhaps that option is where the magic happens. Without it maybe you have to add the large SR manually.

      @DustinB3403
      You were trying to use ext type for thin provisioning rather than the default for large SR of type lvm

      ext2 and ext3 don't know anything over the existence of 2TB, but you can use type lvm to do this locally(looks like you have done this). If XS doesn't have support for ext4 natively I don't think you can use ext4 file systems for anything in XS.
      ext4 would work if you can mount it as an ext type SR in XS, but you probably cant, and will have to use lvm type locally for large SR
      If you want thin provisioning on large shared SRs, use NFS instead of iscsi.

      This was all in that Xenserver book I just got and read through.

      There is also The Tobias reply to this topic
      http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/373709-adding-storage-to-xenserver/

      This Xenserver 7 blog that states why ext4 support is missing in XS 7 (although it is coming in the future)
      https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2016/06/30/xenserver-7-building-the-foundations-of-a-great-future/

      You may be wondering why the move to CentOS 7 didn’t automatically mean that XenServer 7 acquired various features and mechanisms that CentOS 7 happens to have, such as SELinux or the XFS filesystem. This is because the domain 0 Linux platform is a component of the XenServer system (rather than XenServer being an application that runs on top of Linux) and is therefore tightly integrated into the overall system – when we upgrade components of the system our first priority is to ensure a like-for-like upgrade which preserves the integrity, functionality, quality, performance and security of the system. If the new component comes with new mechanisms that didn’t exist in the older version, we carefully consider if and how we can integrate those new mechanisms into the XenServer system (for example moving from ext3 to XFS would require careful consideration for XenServer upgrade and rollback use-cases and therefore isn’t a transparent change) – these additional integrations may come in later releases than the underlying component upgrade.

    • RE: Argh! Windows 10 Updates...

      There are also those games you can install on Linux through Synaptic or apt. Gems like 0AD (actually the first package listed in Synaptic) Tux Racers, Hexen/Doom/Heretic, etc.

      My Data is 2GB, but that is never used as i am near wifi at home or office 95% of the time. I dont text and drive or app and drive. I do use the navigation feature once or twice a year.

      Thanks for the clarification. I never go to the doctor so I never follow the in and outs of the insurance scam.

    • RE: Health insurance plans

      Your deductible is 5350? Doesn't that mean you pay everything out of pocket, essentially every year? Unless youre going in for major surgery or a couple of MRI/CT scans every year you are paying out of your pocket, plus youre also paying for insurance. Plus you put more money in an HSA?
      Youre paying 8k/year for insurance out of pocket, plus what your company is paying the insurance company.
      That seems a bit out of control/way too much. why have employer health insurance if youre paying more than your employer every month.

    • RE: Gaming on Linux - what is the state of play

      Steam on Linux gets me about 1/3 of my 300 games library.
      Luckily many of those are crpgs. Shadowrun, pillars of eternity, Divinity all work. Rocket League is even just about to get released on steam for Linux. When that happens I might not be booting Windows for awhile.

      Boost Mobile 30/month for unlimited text and talk. 100+/month for a phone seems like a bigger waste of money than 275/month(avg Comcast bill) for cable.
