How about Linux? Do you have any Linux skills?

@Alan Don't forget CAL's.. Do you have more users and computers?

@stacksofplates said in Data Backup solution for Linux servers:

I use Relax and Recover.

Since the OP is using CentOS, this is a great option!

@momurda LDAP on Linux would be my guess

This program works great, but it's not free. Anyone know if something free? If not, I might be forced to just buy it.

@stacksofplates well maybe @openit feels differently... what are your concerns? Used internally only it should be fine.

This Install Script works in a clean CentOS 6/7 installation and install Guacamole 0.9.10-incubating version for a local users authentication.

• Configure SELinux for Nginx Proxy
• Configure FirewallD or iptables

@travisdh1 don't forget about a live blood sample.

@NerdyDad you might want to get that checked out...

Have you tried VNC over SSH?

My problem is that we don't have large drives anymore... Everyone is on a small SSD.

@dafyre Use this

XOSAN Beta

The beta of XOSAN is now open! It's really easy to participate, just follow our instruction on the blog post: Register to XOSAN Beta

What's XOSAN?

XOSAN is the way to use each local disk of your hosts to create a shared storage, like VSAN of VMWare. No SPOF, fast, reliable, easy to deploy. That's the goal.

Phase I

This is the first step of the beta. Check what's next:

• Phase II: introduce flexibility (remove/replace failed nodes or extend/grow with new nodes)
• Phase III: performance tuning, cache system (HDD+SSD), multi-disks per hosts support

All along, we'll ask testers to provide benchmarks to eliminate non-satisfactory cases (eg too slow to be in production).

Upgrade your XOA

Six months ago, we released our new XO virtual Appliance (XOA). Now, all new updates will break your old install. So you must use this new XOA right now.

If you upgraded before, there is a procedure to run on your old XOA to make it work back for making the transition.

XenServer 7.1

Another big news: XenServer 7.1 (code name Ely) is now available. XOA already fully support it. We'll create a blog post soon to explain what to expect and how to upgrade. Stay in touch!

You will need some sort of connections between them, yes.
