    Yes. Hence why it is potentially quite beneficial. I would use something like that to tell the time.

    HyperV has limits too on free. Just not the backup API. If you go down the "features for free" list you'd go to XenServer every time.

    Yeah, I believe it's doing a much better job with windows virtualization than it used to. It used to be somewhat slow/laggy with windows and linux ran great but now days it seems to be on par with ESXi.

    It's getting there. No way it could be considered on par, but pretty good, yes. HyperV is still the fourth place on technology but second place in the SMB marketplace. VMware and Xen are the technology leaders and the enterprise market leaders. KVM is the overall backrunner with no good spot in the market but IBM and Red Hat dollars working hard to keep it viable. HyperV is the last place on technology but with massive Microsoft investment, marketing muscle and the simplicity of being under the same umbrella as most other software in the SMB space which seems to be the only factor, other than confusion, driving SMBs to use it (there was a time when nearly every HyperV install was done through misunderstanding.)

    If HyperV did not have backups included or if VMware did have them included in the free version, HyperV would again have little purpose in the market.

    It is the enterprise / premium features that are limited to 25 nodes (on the honor system.) The base server is completely open source and unlimited.

    A lot of smaller economies find companies doing this type of thing quite often.

    There we go, all set. Hopefully that will help some people get started with Chef since it is basically really simple but lacking a few specific things that you "just have to know" because Opscode does not document them (a gap in the Chef 12 documents) it is very hard for no reason.

    Well http://daerma.com is working perfectly, but http://JaredBusch.com is not updating the permalinks correctly. I will just nuke that one and redo it later and see if the problem goes away. I only have 3 posts on it.

    Echoing @DenisKelley 's comment: learn something new.

    Happy Birthday.

    Not commenting on the fact it's my birthday, so far, today has sucked eggs.

    It is your right, as an american, to take the day off after your birthday to go get silly you know. 😛

    happy birthday. 🙂

    @Mike-Ralston Awesome job with the new setup, give us a call if you need a deal on some older stuff to tinker with. 🙂

    I've done something similar with ring groups. Have a set of extensions that are where most phone calls are answered ring says 2-3 times and then if the call isn't taken in that time it fails over to another set of ring groups for other people to answer. There's probably a better way of doing it though.

    This is how it works right now with some of our other groups, and it's not working for us.

    I would love a smart queue - when breaching 5 people in queue, add person 1, if I'm still over 5, add person two, if I'm still over 5, add person three, etc. Then when each of those persons hangup, the system asks, are there still more than 5 calls in that queue, if yes, transfer one to this now open line, if not, remove them from the queue.

    Fully charged. I thought of that too. It's not a power issue.

    CloneZilla it is. I've used it a few times, it's not like Ghost or Acronis of course. But it gets the job done.

    Got the source system back to about were I was the first time and run CloneZilla on it last night. All said and done, I have two systems now.. just need to run Sysprep to re-create the UUIDs.

    We do the bulk of our SIP (internal and customers) on the open Internet. The sound quality issues are tiny, but the reliability and cost savings are huge.
