    • terminal emulation

      I have forgotten what terminal emulation to use for this situation. I am trying to run lsblk on a proxmox host,
      I can make out what the results are, however in a remote ssh session some of the characters are ???????

      I don't remember, but there is one emulation that will display properly.

      lsblk

    • RE: Adding remote storage to Proxmox

      I use cifs, as I have a samba server with loads of space, just another option.

    • RE: SAMIT: IBM Is Killing Off CentOS

      @scottalanmiller no, the end of the open source, specifically the GUI (web mail) for users.

      thanks for your comments, now I have to go and re-arrange my prejudices 😉

    • RE: SAMIT: IBM Is Killing Off CentOS

      @scottalanmiller so basically, it has turned into a trust issue, based upon their previous behaviour. I am trying to
      decide which distribution to use, as I need to build a new zimbra server( yes, I am aware of Zimbra's announcement going forward), I have almost 2 years to come up with a solution, but in the meantime..... I have an aversion to Ubuntu, but that is
      based upon an experience I had a few years ago. I do like Debian, as for most of my deployments, I don't need 'bleeding edge". Any Suggestions ?

    • RE: Raid 10 + wd red (cmr not smr)

      the next thought is a faulty miniSAS SFF-8087 to 4x SATA cable but why would the WD gold drive work ?

      @Dashrender clearly stated earlier in the thread, 'raid controller firmware is current'

    • RE: Raid 10 + wd red (cmr not smr)

      @DustinB3403 I have my doubts about that with this controller. I have used a variety of LSI/3ware controllers
      over the years, and have never experienced that, in fact have attached previously used formatted hard drives sans issue. nonetheless, the hard drive was new (straight out of the bag). I will test with
      another lsi raid controller and see, thanks

    • RE: Raid 10 + wd red (cmr not smr)

      @Pete-S as mentioned earlier in this thread, attached to a windows pc, and performs as one would expect.
      even ran some of Western Digital's tools (data life guard) on the drive, no issues.

    • RE: Raid 10 + wd red (cmr not smr)

      @scottalanmiller I thought so, i thought I would add that bit about the controller. I couldn't find
      any firmware available at all on the wd site. the new drive shows a date of 01 Nov. 2020
      I have another lsi 9750 4i , so I may put that in another pc and see if I get the same result.
