Just found the beta announcement for what looks like a really nice wifi analysis tool they're working on for a new AP. Hope this gets rolled out to current models at some point!

In Delta analysis of what is going on in the radios environment.

@scotth said in I tried NAS4Free, FreeNAS, OMV, ... Lots of suggestions to move to Linux. I'm willing. Point me please.:

I'm running XenServer 7.2, Xen Orchestra Community (nice script, btw - I used Jarli01) and am fine with it so far. I played around tossing in a few distros and with a little more futzing around, I'm going to move my storage to a Linux distro, at least I'm leaning that way.
My default SR is local and I want to create reliable storage for a backup target. I have a decent box here, two 4T drives and have run Linux on it before.
Any faves, honorable mentions, quirks, hazards?
TIA
Scott

Personally I like md + LVM + XFS. XFS and btrfs are both completely valid avenues as well. Just stay away from the "NAS" distributions like FreeNAS. Better off managing it yourself the vast majority of the time.

@matteo-nunziati said in replacement for netstat is ss:

yeas it is a lot of time since developers have created a new gen of net tools but still I feel more confy with old stile commands

Yeah, I'm more comfortable with the new things like ip instead if ifconfig every day, but still seems odd at times.

@quixoticjeremy
My code never does / did..... which is why I don't code. Wished I could... I have so many project notes just sitting.... Ah well. can't do it all...

Code and I have an interesting relationship.

Code doesn't work: why didn't my code work?
Code works: Why did my code work? What am I missing...

Yep, been there, done that plenty of times myself.

@quixoticjustin said in Installing Sodium Agent on XenServer 6.5:

I think that while it would be great, older XenServer is going to be out of scope, at least for a really long time, with Sodium. There are a lot of barriers there and a really small use case. Now the current XenServer might be a different matter. Has anyone looked at that at all?

Yeah, while I had a system available I figured looking to see if it would "just work" made sense. But the version of Python is to old, and it's a huge hassle to get a newer version installed at best.

Time to update to XS 7 and test ;)

Yeah, if I had any way to get my own OS installed it would've already been. Another server at WholeSaleInternet.

@pravin Ah, I'm actually not sure on that because I use it with a FreePBX install :(

@scottalanmiller, @JaredBusch have any pointers?

Just got setup in a corner at my parents house for now (no animals or babies to get in the way during the day.) Slightly mobile setup, I say slightly because the entire kit comes out to ~11 lbs.

@networknerd said in Using In-Memory Databases, Anyone?:

• They actually point out in the podcast that they had the best success with in-memory databases on local storage or SAN (NAS not a good choice) and that ethernet was the networking avenue of choice.

Wha? In-memory database changing performance based on storage? IE: Performance changing because of something that is supposed to be taken out of the performance equation.

I've not really delved into the in-memory databases and how they work differently than MySQL or MSSQL. Still, seems to miss the point to my admittedly limited knowledge on the subject.

Just finished watching my buffalo bills week 2 preseason game, what an embarrassment -_-. Yes I watch football, I know that's an oddity here. But it gives me an excuse to drink which is really what it's all about.

Go sportsball.

I can't claim complete not-caring of sports, my sister does work for an NFL franchise after all.

I have no shame, I've been a bills fan since I was born.

Sorry, that's nearly so bad as us in Browns Town.
