Good morning folks.
Time for coffee.
PS I wish I were off today, the town assessor is coming over to tell us what he's willing to pay us for our land....
"Good morning"... I'm about to leave work in 2 hours or so

It's a bit weird being back on American time and being awake at the same time as most people here!

Just saw this project. Which managed to miss the first point in their list with a single VRTX.

Wow. Blades, a VRTX and an Inverted Pyramid of Doom while buying VMware Essentials Plus for a system that doesn't scale correctly with that. How many mistakes can one company make in a single project?
AND he calls it both HA and HC, both of which it is exactly not. He couldn't be further from either. This is what passes as IT in non-profits these days.

And, of course, this means that he never read Spiceworks or MangoLassi AND never posted his idea because all of these mistakes would have been pointed out before he screwed the company that he worked for. How arrogant to post something so ridiculous as a project to be proud of in a community where that very design is constantly pointed out as being absolutely horrible day after day. He thinks posting to SW for praise is a good idea but isn't willing to post for advice or vetting of ideas? Ridiculous.

Eminent domain? What's going on?

@scottalanmiller His other project was putting an IoT coffee pot on their critical infrastructure (his words) network. I doubt this is a very savvy IT department.

@scottalanmiller I should post the 2-node setup I just configured with 15TB of storage. I bet my 16k price was half of that purchase price and will out perform that setup.

Could you post some details in a dedicated thread? I'm looking for something very similar (2 nodes, mirrored storage like StarWind Virtual San etc).

Some local corrupt church pulling some politician's strings to seize land that they have no right to.

For two nodes you use DRBD, which is baked into XenServer!

Yeah, but it's a non profit company, so who really gives a damn?

Hey, they got the best team that no money could buy! Now, can you put this coffee pot on our network pro bono?

One would hope, the people making the donations. But we all know better.

Oh okay. Then Starwind for the win, for sure. It's the only native solution that I know of for Hyper-V.
