          made a super simple script for pushing filebeat out to CentOS 7 clients that don't have it yet, assuming that you have the necessary config files locally...

          #!/bin/bash
          ssh root@"$1" "rpm --import http://packages.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch"
          scp elastic-beats.repo root@"$1":/etc/yum.repos.d/
          ssh root@"$1" "yum -y install filebeat"
          scp filebeat.yml root@"$1":/etc/filebeat/filebeat.yml
          scp logstash-forwarder.crt root@"$1":/etc/pki/tls/certs
          ssh root@"$1" "systemctl start filebeat; systemctl enable filebeat"

                      Just about to hit 10AM and I'm onto my second coffee... three hours early.
                      The first one didn't even touch the sides.

                            Also known as Lunar New Years. Steam has a big sale on to celebrate.

                                Just got a random call, in Greek, on the ancient house phone. That was weird.

                                  Just got in to work...for some reason, on a Monday it takes me about 20 minutes longer than any other day...

                                    I think that I tend to be up earlier, rather than later, on Mondays.

                                      Yeah, I may need to leave 10 minutes earlier on a Monday in future...

                                        First Windows server ever for the company OR the IT guy... yet it is Server 2008. Something fishy there?

                                          A backup vendor asking if "big commercial databases" run from USB drives or FTP. Seriously?

                                          http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1432565-the-best-storage-for-big-databases

                                          Here is the OP before the vendor takes it away:


                                          Greetings for all!

                                          Please tell which modern storage devices/solutions you are using (or just feel a most convenient) for big databases, especially commercial-level DBs with at least several thousands of daily transactions?

                                          Fast external drives (USB 3.0, eSATA)
                                          NAS units
                                          Local FTP/SFTP/FTPS servers
                                          Internet-connected storages (clouds, distant FTPs)
                                          Dedicated storage vaults
                                          Other device types

                                          It is also very interesting why you are using or suggesting a particular storage. Your answers are very important for our team, to develop better, faster backup practices for big databases.

                                          Thanks for sharing your opinions!

                                          Best regards,

                                          Nataliya (Handy Backup Team)

                                            Clearly that "backup vendor" isn't sure what databases even are. Not something you want to find out about your backup people.
