@IRJ said in Github for code storage:

I guess another question would also be how do you handle scrubbing of identifying data such as IPs , emails, or hostnames? Can your privately highlight any fields that should be changed?

First, try to write code that doesn't need scrubbing. Create functions that take parameters you define either interactively or that you can set manually in an easy and quick way.

If you can't and just have to hardcode in private data, both GitHub and GitLab allow private repos. I use both just the same now.

Guys what if, just follow me here for a second, @scottalanmiller and @xrobau are actually the same person?

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

As a bit of a rebuttal, you're kinda getting confused and claming FreeNAS is a bunch of things it isn't. In fact, in that 'common myths' page is ... I dunno, random made up stuff?

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

So, as a Solaris administrator from way back, let's go through a couple of the misapprehensions about ZFS in that document you linked!

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

I am your guest ZFS expert! Ask me anything

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

Truly, honestly, that's not how ZFS works. I cross my heart.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

Dude, I've been doing this for almost 30 years

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

I got my Windows cert, and CCIE, and a bunch of other things before moving into DevOps. So, please - trust me when I say I know what I'm talking about.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

Honestly, this is where you are 100% wrong, and you refuse to listen to me.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

But telling me I'm wrong isn't going to get you anywhere, because I know what I'm talking about here. This is my field of expertise.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

Now, if you can take a breath, admit that you've learned something new about ZFS

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

I've been using ZFS for 15 years now, and I'm extremely confident in my knowledge.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

I'm a sysadmin. I've done courses.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

I now have to quote multiple things, scroll backwards and forwards, and generally waste even more of my time.

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

This is what frustrates me here - I know this stuff IN DEPTH

@xrobau said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

you're trying to claim that you know this better than me, when you obviously don't. It's massively frustrating.

This is the greatest collection of "I'm smart and I'm an expert" statements I've ever seen. The more someone has to tell you how brilliant they are....

Ignorance is bliss. There's hardly any shortage of it here.

@scottalanmiller said in Revisiting ZFS and FreeNAS in 2019:

But good news, Google now ranks us the very top hit for ZRAID8 Literally, since this is the first place it has ever been mentioned.

Hahahhaha that just made my month!

@EddieJennings said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

| tail -n +3 | cut -d' ' -f7

What does that do? Don't hate, just trying to save myself some google time.

This is where we were eating it.

I also got a jar of store brand Nutella. Hmm, why the hell not!

Enjoying the ultimate snack:

Could RemoteApp be a consideration?

@scottalanmiller said in Testing oVirt...:

The idea behind oVirt is superior. Central web based management would be great. oVirt simply was too complex and inflexible making it worth abandoning a superior approach because it just wasnt that good at what it should be best at.

oVirt isnt bad, but it absolutely has huge negatives that are glaring and unnecessary.

Odd. I got it up and running very easily not very long ago.

What were the issues you had if you don't mind me asking something you probably already answered somewhere.
