nly have a problem remembering which to use
/dev/dvd
/dev/sr0
/dev/cdrom
is different for each distro.
Maybe Linux needs someone from a UX engineering background to help out! LOL because for something that is rock solid it changes too much 
@bnrstnr said in XenTools installation error for Linux:
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/
For the love of GOD that worked thanks!

Trust me it is easier to just move to Windows 10 or nuke it and get Quickbooks Online or another (better) app. Trust me I wish I could get my company off the Intuit high horse. It's pointless to use. I think SAM has broken down how bad their methodology for their development team for at least the last 20 years and it stinks!
Using Turnkey OVA of Observium and it installed properly. I have tried to run the following command with no luck/love. So after I run the first command it says a path prefix is not a directory. So after poking around I saw I had a xvda1.

Installing XenServer Tools on Linux VMs
Select the VM in the Resources pane, right-click, and then click Install XenServer Tools on the shortcut menu. Alternatively, on the VM menu, click Install XenServer Tools.
Click Install XenServer Tools on the message dialog to go to the VM's console.
As the root user, mount the image into the VM:
mount -o ro,exec /dev/disk/by-label/XenServer\x20Tools /mnt
When it comes to Zoho Creator, like many apps you may see around the interwebs, most companies have moved to a layout which is a 2 or 3-panel layout which is a big plus for me. I use Quickbase and the design layout kinda is lacking, however, with their new CEO came a newfound investment in ironing out some layout issues and simple api issues.
My biggest reason for loving Zoho creator would be how it integrates with what I consider to be a life blood for some smaller companies which is basically Zoho Social and Zoho Connect. That helps enable communication to your clients/customers (Social) and inter-communication (Connect). In comparison, it is what Facebook for Workplace is going to become in the future.
Zoho has actual phone apps (big plus) while Quickbase doesnt (just a web app with a style sheet change). I love Podio in that it is built up from the ground up to be mobile app and web friendly and quick to extend it's functionality.
I would assume the key features your looking at are:
-custom reporting
-easy of development
-cost sensitivity
-what you consider as mail merge
I re-read your OP and I want to say if you're just trying to make a tabular/spreadsheet report out the box Zoho does that just as much as anyone else in low-code dev.
Sounds like you may be trying to wing it and just push through, but I would suggest watching the webinars (which they have tons on their site and youtube). Also 3rd party people like myself make youtube videos as well detailing the design/development process. It is there just one quick google 
Also I don't mind helping wherever I can!!!
@scottalanmiller I've never heard of vFront but it sounds like it is not in the same category with Zoho and Quickbase. Zoho definitely is a good product and while I haven't had to deal with support as much (I have but limited) that is why when you have issues consider getting a partner in their network. It's not a monthly thing for a partner unless you want it to be.
The app you have sounds like it could be made in as little as 2 weeks or as much as a few months compared to going with a traditional development cycle. However, I do have one gripe, that's Shadow IT and also over zealous power users who make bad business decisions when it comes to low code environments. Short of that little to no problems.
Just for you to gauge my level of usage, I have developed over 30 apps which are being used by my staff and other offices, DOL, DOJ and a few other county and state entities. 95% of my development is in Quickbase but I do have time and play with Zoho and Podio and now also AppSheet.
When it comes to this you have also have Google App Maker and Microsoft Power Apps which are all good in certain ways.
Zoho Creator is good I also use Quickbase
Personally, I like using Zoho Social to merge into Creator so you kinda get the best of two worlds.
Low Code tools are almost all the same in most general cases so if you have excel or word docs that need to have a better structure and do some automation, low code tools are the way to go.
The tool can make whatever you want as long as you design it right. I use a preferred partner for apps that I need additional help with so I have a win/win scenario.
For another site I manage, I don't use stun and I also have ALG/SIP disabled on SonicWall but it is vlaned.
@jaredbusch said in SIP ALG on TP-Link:
You said it works. But did it really? or did it not jsut not break something?
I have 20 something EdgeRouters in the wild at clints and almos tall sites have SIP phones and I have this settign off
Great question.
I use Yealink phones. For the most part, Scott made sense in that STUN servers can be hit or miss at times. There have been times I can go register a phone without STUN enabled and it works, and randomly another phone may not be able to register until I enable it.
Today, I want to say 99% of every phone today at one office has it enabled and working and registered successfully. Again I'm not a VoIP Engineer, I've only had to be a guy to deploy it back in the day when I worked in telcos. So I've deployed phones, cabling, networks and done some of the config from a customer point of view but never from the NOC side.
I have sat with the engineers 1000's of times and at that time in my life I just knew VoIP worked. However after the last 3-5 years of dealing with VoIP/PBX I come to respect it more and more but I also come to scratch my head more and more when what logically shouldn't work, works
Just FYI I'm using the EdgeRouter PoE v1.9.1 and when I disabled the ALG, all my phones quit working. Thank God for NTG & Scott we are back up and running but for the most part we turned ALG back on. I'm not 100% sure but it appears UBNT is the first vendor I've come across where ALG for SIP actually works. I've always used Linksys, DLink, Sonicwall etc and ALG/SIP is ALWAYS the first thing support wants you to disable.
Has anyone ran across any issues with the Edge Router yet?

Strongly considering moving to linux for the nvr as I see and hear it does better with memory management for the NVR.
@momurda No. It's a application server just running Ubiquiti NVR. However it does run on a RAM Drive for about 4 GB only for the NVR to write to it for fast access. Other than that, nothing out the ordinary going on.
It booted up now took a long time. What should I look for to diagnose?
VM is a Windows 2012 R2, was just doing a reboot and got that error. Windows at one point booted and had an error but was unable to get logged in to find out.
Suggestions?
With that in mind, if adding additional drives will add to the read/write performance, then I should be able to just add additional sas drives. I only have 8 bays for storage. 4 are being used.
@scottalanmiller if the nvr is in the cloud, that's gotta be a lot of data going over WAN.
How would you be able to sustain it on AWS?
