Training Sessions
-
Are there any plans to record for pps like me who can't join there, well at least for now!
And regarding topics, i would love to see someone giving a session on a tool like ansible.
-
We will be recording all sessions. I would like to live stream at least one but working out those details now.
-
Live streaming is a great idea, but not sure how many of us could be available due to timezone differences. So we will have access to the recorded sessions i believe
-
Please use some sort of voice-to-text solution to transcribe the session speakers for the recorded sessions... It makes life easier when we can watch the videos with audio off... as long as the VTT is better than Google's Voicemail transcription, lol.

That gets expensive because you reall yneed it to be manually audited after the Voice to text. man hours are not cheap.
-
If you attend I can get a Interpreter if you need! But voice to text is not going to happen due to sheer cost.

Addressing emotional responses when non-IT folks say things such as "we NEED this". In situations like "We NEED HA" but don't fully grasp what is gained from their understanding of it, and how to address it.
-
I don't need an interpreter any more... I need the practice at listening, ha ha ha. I'll even volunteer to do the subtitles (I've done this for a few videos over the years).
Even if you use something like Dragon Dictate (or some of these alternatives: http://alternativeto.net/software/nuance-dragon-naturallyspeaking/) just to record a transcript of what is being said, that could be a huge help for some of us.
-
I would be happy to speak with you and take you up on that.

Just to be clear... you are suggesting this as a training session, right?
-
@Minion-Queen Just let me know. I can start doing some research on what apps would be good for transcription.
-
@dafyre Of course
Addressing emotional responses is a critical skill set for everyone (not just IT people)

Start now! We are putting together our full budget right now so need all these details figured out!
-
Maybe https://transcribe.wreally.com/ may work.
Worth testing, as it's free.
Edit: it's $20/annually which you could let it lapse after the year.

Linux for Systems Admins, Linux 102 a bit more then the basics. Something that goes over many of the useful tools, bash, maybe some security best practices?
A course on grep alone could take an entire day.
Understanding how to use it, when to use it, use cases.... Scott could probably teach this one (with a huge look of disdain on his face
) -
A Linux course would be very tough, but not impossible. Knowing exactly what to teach would be necessary.

LVM or SELinux.
-
Not sure I could pull off an SELinux one, but I would love to be an attendee!! [Not kidding.]
-
A one hour session deep dive on LVM, what it is, what it does and how to use it would actually be extremely doable. Right length for that kind of content, often needed, would cross a lot of "skill level" boundaries. I like that one.
-
We would have time to cover commands, growing, shrinking, merging, theory, hows and whys, best practices, relationship to MD RAID, etc.
