      Thinking "I need to plan expanding some vmdk disks for our citrix servers" but ending up on here 🙂

      That happens a lot over here.

        You need to plan for that? I must be super spoiled, takes me like 10 minutes with no interruptions.

          @travisdh1 can I do that with the server live and people RDP'd into it?

          Plan consists of stop people logging in. Shut it down. Expand. Re-enable access.

          Just can't be bothered to implement the plan lol

            You can expand the drive at the hypervisor, but it won't take effect until the next reboot and expansion within the OS.

              Are we talking Windows Server here? If so, then don't try it without planned downtime. My CentOS/Fedora/Ubuntu instances can all do that live (LVM is amazing.)

                Sitting on the floor of the ballroom.

                I'm a little off today, in my mind I'm seeing you in a ballgown instead of a ballroom 😛

                Or both.

                That could probably be arranged, if not, at least photoshoped.

                We'd need a photo from @scottalanmiller to start off with first. 😉

                I say we go to the thrift store and find him a ballgown. Bring it to MC 2017 (or ship it to the hotel).

                I think blue is your color @scottalanmiller

                    Interesting, even with a full install of something ~/.bash_profile doesn't contain very much at all. I wonder if you can use ~/.bash_profile as a login script for drive mapping etc or if it only applies to specific things

                      Seeing if I can restore a bare metal backup from Windows Server Backup onto a VM.

                        Performing CLI based backups to B2 on Korora as the file path is to long for Windows to support.

                          It only applies to bash. I made that mistake when I wanted to disable the trackpad on a laptop I had. After logging into the desktop, I still had to open a terminal window to get my .bash_profile to apply.

                            Just had a good laugh, here, let me show you the first paragraph

                            I understand that you are the decision maker for your company's IT Department and it is my pleasure to introduce you to our IronOrbit Hosted Desktop & Server Solutions. I have attached our Iron Orbit hosted desktop solution overview for your review. We have been extremely successful assisting Engineering, Medical/Hospitals and Technology firms with our dedicated hosted desktop and server solution. We offer a dedicated hosted High Speed Desktop Network including a server architecture where we would take on the cost of building you a brand new desktop and server solution. So we take the desktop infrastructure and the server infrastructure and build it on the same local area network, creating the same design and functionality as what you would have locally except faster, more secure, and much more reliable High Speed Desktop Network.

                            Good enough to make it past the automatic spam filters, just not the weak fleshy one.

                                    Back to documentation while I wait for Windows Server Backup restoration to fail.

                                    Better? 😛

                                      Looking for software that will list file names and paths at the 255 limit, and then truncate them down if possible.

                                            IIRC there's a way you can do it with linux that works great, but I last used it 5 years ago so... maybe it'll help your googling
