    With the 24 drives in RAID 10 I believe that this would be a good fit for one of my clients, sadly I hear the datacenter they are moving to suggested a rig 1/10 the power with a magic SAN device.

    They are asking their datacenter for server advice? That sounds pretty weird. I've honestly never heard of someone doing that before.

    What kind of workload are they doing that requires this kind of horsepower?

    They got their Asterisk packages very up to date. Only the OS is behind.

    Just to update (once you have forgotten this one), I found out what the problem was... in the rush to get our new website online, the dev had trouble with the hosting we had purchased so just put it on his own server instead... and remembered to tell me three days ago. All working now and happy 🙂

    Whoops, lol.

    What's the file location of wrapper.exe?

    Wrapper.exe and java.exe have all spawned from the VMware directory

    @alexntg said:

    vCenter's a little RAM heavy. If I'm reading this right, you're using the same server for vCenter and Veeam. If that's the case, you'll want to give it extra RAM.

    Yeah, that's just for evaluation purposes. I think I'll add more RAM regardless.

    @scottalanmiller said:

    You can tweak down the RAM usage if necessary. But I am not sure that I would recommend that.

    Yeah, I'll pass on that. I was more concerned that it was broken and needed fixing but from the sounds of things, it isn't broken. So, no need to fix it then 🙂

    Thanks lads 🙂

    Yes. NTG used to use DokuWiki. From the admin's perspective it really doesn't get any easier. But for end users we went to MediaWiki and then to SharePoint.

    Are you telling Unitrends to only look at the VMware host? You should only be adding one thing to back up. Not doing anything with the servers that run in top of it.

    Or pointing at the HyperV host, rather.

    Also I was under the impression that they are supposedly moving away from the big service packs and towards the update rollout schedule.

    I believe that that is true. The big SP thing did not work well, they developed a very unhealthy culture of people reading too much into the SP numbers.
