Also... every reseller will tell you what he's telling you. This is a standard scam that makes a fortune.

No consultant will agree, when paid to advise, they essentially all will tell you that this stuff is pretty much a reseller scam.

Okay, we got it. Doing the switch, then the fwconsole update, then rebooting, and running through it all again... eventually it fixed itself.

Brocade Fiber Adapter for SAN devices on servers also have that issue in which we need to turn off and on the ports so it actually maps the LUNs, happens all the time. I have never liked that brand.

Sometimes you can find slowness and some other issues with WebDav in Windows. If the WebDav Server is in Linux like NextCLoud it works well.

There is a big difference in how the speed feels between Windows 7 and Windows 10. Windows 7 had some bugs that made it dog slow at times.

SharePoint

I think I found the issue 😜

Microsoft all around 🙂

My guess is that no, it could not work if the full drive is encrypted. Once you boot into Windows, the drive would be inaccessible as there would be no Linux to decrypt it.

@Obsolesce said in General Guidance on Windows Admin Center WAC:

Yes you do need to either add other devices manually or by importing a list... but it's a one-time thing so it's a non-issue IMHO.

Not bad for tiny environments. But at any scale, how does that handle machines being added in the future? You have to manually add every new machine after every change to WAC?

I've only had about 100 servers and a handful of Win10 in it, so I'm not familiar with handling that at scale. It really only requires a txt file of a list of devices which is simple to maintain in any aspect. I only had to import that to get everything back in. If I added a new server, I would add it to the text file then add that server.

and if you want to change the window size.

Yeah, outdoor speakerphones arent a popular item.

did you migrate recently to O365 ?

@matteo-nunziati said in Performance Advantages to Splitting Applications from Databases:

@gtech yeah the only reason is saturation of resources and scaling out.
rdbs do not scale out easily while front ends do.

And RDBMSs tend to scale better vertically (throwing more RAM and CPU in a box) while app servers tend to scale better horizontally (throwing more, smaller boxes at it.)

I can't think of a way aside from cron every X seconds. I'd dump it into a csv file with just the timestamp and the number of calls. E.g.

#!/bin/sh if [ ! -f /var/log/activecalls.csv ]; then echo "Timestamp,Calls" > /var/log/activecalls.csv fi DateTime=`date "+%Y%m%d %H:%M:%S"` echo -ne "\n$DateTime," >> /var/log/activecalls.csv asterisk -x 'core show channels' | grep 'active calls' | cut -d " " -f1

Which SHOULD create a nice csv for you...

@JaredBusch said in Questions on UDP, Guest WiFi, LAN, and Unifi.:

You have the VLAN using the same subnet as the untagged traffic?

Not my VLAN and I haven't had a chance to look at it.

Based on the DHCP info I have seen acquired by the phones, I would have to say the VLAN-100 is on another subnet and has it's own DHCP server. The Mitel 5000 and one other Phone system device (Xarios?) have IPs on the business LAN, the phones do not. I think those two devices have IPs on my LAN because they need internet access.

I'm hopeful I can move forward is if the phones weren't there at all....... I don't think there'll be any toe stepping.

One user keeps on complaining that the email message she sent was not received by the intended receiver? how to check the issue? We are using exchange 2010.

Message tracing in ECP.

@scottalanmiller said in Major outage at VoIP.ms today:

Wait, I think we are talking on a voip.ms line right now, weird.

The problem is inbound termination from upstream of them. Everything else works.

Also not all inbound providers are affected.

Okay, that makes sense then.

The Azure CentOS image I used for testing didn't have firewalld enabled by default

Well a, very, old version of CentOS minimal had that issue natively. Maybe that is what Azure built on.

@notverypunny said in Server Monitoring:

On the monitoring topic, has anyone gotten Zabbix to work reliably without installing an agent?

Why would you try? Having an agent is part of the benefit. Agent means easier to manager, and more reliable.

Was thinking a test deployment might be easier if it's just a matter of setting up a service account and pushing permissions via GPO

Create a template Zabbix config file, then push the agent & config file however you like, and then set up Zabbix to automatically register new devices and done.

We prepend our bat and cmd batch files with this code to ensure we are elevated. This code will allow a batch file to elevate itself!

SO correct me here - But If I use a database server instance to compile data into folders and then use a mapped drive to send data to and from on mapped drives then wouldn't I be a fileserver using a database instance - not making it a database server?

Then you are in even worse shape because this is so ridiculous a court would see it as "intent to defraud" by making a slow, terrible system that makes no sense except to attempt to hide that you are violating a license.

This would be still having a database server (can you get data from the database? Then you have a server), but coopting the file server protocols to do it turning them into an API and thereby requiring that they be licensed as a server to keep using.

No matter how you skin the cat here, it's still a cat. There is a database server, it is managing data, and it is getting that data to other machines. That another service is put into that process to hide that is bad programming practice, but doesn't change licensing. Licensing is by use and intent, not visible protocol.

again - I might not have all of the information here to be able to tell you one way or another as this conversation goes on, I was simply asking -

Buy a Windows Server license and enough CALs, slap the sticker on the Win7 box, then go home and sleep peacefully.
