It's a day of people saying that they want to use Storage Spaces Direct. A sudden rash of it... a week after MS announced it wasn't production ready and discontinued it.
It's not discontinued. It's just not in the current build because they are workign on it and not ready for current releases of Server2016.
"Not in the current release" and "discontinued" are literally the same thing here. What else would discontinued mean?
To me, discontinued implies "not coming back or returning". This is not the case.
We also don't know that it is coming back. They say that, but they claim a lot of things are coming that never do. Not that this affects the fact that it is currently discontinued, but even the future of it is a big unknown.
Well, so far, the mirrored drives in my desktop are doing ok. I don't have anything important on them tho, steam games is about it.
Mirroring tends to be more reliable than most things.
Is that SS or SSD, though? I thought SSD was 2016 only.
Ah, it's probably just SS then. Windows 10, not a server thing.

SS hasn't gone anywhere, only S2D.

I think that's their new master plan with S2D.
Looks interesting.

OWA just started working, no changes, no reboots, not even the browser restarted. LOL
Definitely an O365 / Azure outage.

Trying to get rid of a headache before tonight’s rehearsal.

Finally off of the phone after what was basically a 90 minute stand up meeting.

It's normally account based. That's how MS covers up all of their technical issues. Because of their scale, outages are common, but typically isolated to accounts or regions so it is hard to find other people having the same issues at the same time.

@scottalanmiller Ah yes, good point.
