@scottalanmiller that's apparently what we are switching to. I have no input on those decisions.
It's not bad, just costly

Yes, it's the best of the high cost, medium feature range. It doesn't have end to end support, but it lacks very little. It's relatively complete, but uber expensive. Roughly double what a phone should cost if you get above 20 users.
I should say, it cost double what a supported phone should cost. For what it is, it should be under a quarter of its cost, given that it doesn't come with support.

Reading through some blog posts on MeshCentral & MeshCommander Blog
I knew about the consent settings, but this new improvement is awesome.

@scottalanmiller the sales guy prattled on about their support, I guess we will see. And we are probably right at 20 users between here and India.

They dont even have support. They fix their side if things, yes, but they dont support adds, moves, changes, networking, the phones themselves, etc.
As a company that gets hired to do support for companies that bought RC, there is a big portion of the system that they dont support at all.

As someone that has been hired to do the same, I can confirm that.

As someone who works for an Avaya partner/reseller I can't wait to find out more about this whole Avaya Cloud offering staring RingCentral.

I've been contacted by no less than 3 partner/resellers about this. I simply haven't had the time to do more about it other than to attend a presentation. No nuts and bolts, just slides & a few questions.

rebooting DC that's gone to sleep, just sitting there looking stupid...

It's RC and Avaya, no real reason to look at it. Your time matters, so looking at solutions you know aren't realistic are important to skip to make sure you have time for what's needed.

@nadnerB so I read that the Swan River in Western Australia was named by a Dutch explorer in 1600 & something, but Aus wasn't declared as 'discovered' untill 1770.
So how did the name become known??? There's about 100 years between the 2 events.

RC is a decent solution for the right need. It is a limited scope IMO, but it is valid.
Avaya on the other hand is just a cesspool. Bankruptcy to NYSE listing in 2 years? Yeah, money grab.

Well, the mid westcoast of WA is also known as the Batavia Coast.
Dutch ships used to run aground off the coast on their way to 'the Dutch East Indies'.
IIRC, most of the time was because they were blown off course in/by the roaring 40's/forgot to turn.Dirk Hartog was one person to make landfall (deliberately).

I and @HPEStorageGuy grew up in or around Batavia, NY! It was a hub of the old Dutch colony.

Mate you went above and beyond there, thanks. I'd better check that out.
I love WA. Can't remember what I was reading but this bloke said he was in lock down up around Broome, said the lockdown area was the size of California but with only about 35,000 people in it.

WA is tops
Yeah, I'd believe that. WA is ~2.6 million km² with only about 2.5 million people.
Broome is part of the Pilbara (for non en-AU, pronounced pil-brah). Second from the top in the pic below.

@nadnerB you been up to the Kimberley? Gee's that bloody nice up there.
I was going to do the Canning Stock Route this year, going north to south. The northern end is around 400kms east of Broome and goes down to Wiluna.
One problem I was going to have was not throwing everything in when I get up there and just run away into the Kimberley, just so beautiful.

Is there a "migration" path to go from ESXi to KVM? Without the need to format the storage, or is it advised to backup and re-create all VM's and storage?
Also what are people using for their base KVM, Fedora/CentOS/Ubuntu?Think it's time to move the home lab to it. Also i want to do Hardware passthrough (namely GPU) and looking it seems to be better in KVM)
