While we're on the subject of necrothreading, I'm thinking of picking up a GTX 980 and a 1440p monitor that supports gsync. time to start looking for holiday sales.

As others have mentioned (thanks guys!), our Untirends Free only protects VMware, Hyper-V, & Windows clients, however our paid editions start at $299, which is a one time cost, and includes the 1st year of support. After the initial year, the only costs that you'll have going forward will be for support, which includes tech support & all software updates. This post about our updated XenServer protection went up on our blog yesterday. Please let me know what questions you may have.

Not surprising. Hyper-V isn't really meant to be used in that way aside from admin tasks once in a while. It's really meant to be used to run servers/services. Not a desktop you access through it's own console.

That's why I am not completely shocked. But since Hyper-V has replaced VirtualPC and is being promoted for this specific use case I am a little surprised that getting it competitive with VirtualBox has not been a priority.

@LAH3385 might be good to start a thread and try to determine what your needs are before going down the path of technology. By the time you were asking this question, you were already in pretty deep assuming certain products, product categories and platform HA. We should start with a business needs analysis, use that to set goals and then use the goals to select technology approaches.

@IT-ADMIN generally setting up your iDrac is the first step in installing a Dell server (or ILO for an HP, IPMI for SuperMicro, etc.) I don't know the T310 specifically, but likely you will need to set up access for it in the BIOS. The iDRAC will have its own IP address and should be accessible from a web browser.

Most of the newer ones can be configured from the front panel LCD without even messing with the BIOS or Idrac/Lifecycle controller settings on the server.

unfortunately i don't have LCD on my server
what is strange is on their website they show LCD but in reality there is no LCD (just marketing) or maybe i have an old generation

Should I do it here or start a new thread?

New thread.

I read the article and it says that it is using Webkit and not using any proxy.

The calendars are much better than the active sync on your phone. I just use OWA on my phone now. So much easier.

huh, I wonder how calendars in OWA on Android/iOS would work? There is the problem where many ORs don't have good cell reception, so that's probably not going to be a good solution anyway.

You don't have wireless in the buildings?

This one bit me today. Wish I had seen this thread, but I was I. The middle of 3 other things when this user called. It was pure firefighting at that point.

Kudos to @TechnicalAngel for googling for me while I vented and leading me to the resolution.

Why would you replicate their content on this forum why not just link to their articles of the people can read

There is both, the link is in the first line.

I never said there was no link.

You are the one advocating people not post content twice to get traffic in the desired place yet you break that concept right here. Blatantly ripping the entire post.

@JaredBusch said:

Great news of course, but I just do not know if I can trust them to keep it up to date.

I'd be curious to know that too, especially after your adventure with yum updates and going from Elastix 2.4 to 2.5.

I got these emails this morning that'll be something I work on tomorrow too busy at clients to do anything today

Infiniband at $75/hr!!

Ill be damned. I just checked and there is a web UI I never saw.

Aren't you glad you posted ? 😉

@BRRABill Can't be more than $2!! Right? Memory at that size is so freaking cheap!! Seems like 2GB would be a more logical minimum size.

$2 multiplied by 500,000 units - not going to happen lol

You can easily charge $3 for that kind of upgrade, though!!

Then how do you upgrade them to the WD My Cloud EX5? 😉

Nice, thanks for sharing!

@Jason you be careful with that!
