Licensing is the big thing here. Is your licensing by host, core, or socket? Since your running Windows on top and vsphere you'll need to be concerned with both core and socket.

Hiking, outdoorsey type stuff with the family (or by myself safely when Family's stressing me out). Not to the extent someone like @MattSpeller does but there's plenty of "easy" trails within 15-30 min of where I live.

We tread the same paths my friend, I am no fitness buff

Fitness... I"m all about 'fit n ths' doughnut in my hand....

@wrx7m said in Planning for New ESXi Hosts - Which CPU Metrics Should I Use?:

So if I had 1 socket with 16 cores, I would be fine. If I had 2 sockets with 16 cores, I would need an additional Windows Server license for the other 16, correct?

Yes. See the following page: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/licensing/product-licensing/windows-server

Hello #2 in the nation. :D. Back to Linux learning.

What did I miss?

#3 UGA annihilated #WhoGivesADamn Florida. #2 Penn State lost to #6. So, UGA is 8-0, Penn State is 7-1. So we (UGA) should move to #2.

No idea what that means.

vSphere is different.

They license per socket.

What is this for? I clicked it and it just closed my reply. And it’s always in the way

Literally the worst thing on ML mobile. I think it's supposed to allow you to reply/quote multiple comments in a thread but it's really just annoying.

Can't realistically think of anything that I can't do at home.

Sure I get that and your right. Its just difficult to pay for licensing for everything sometimes. That is really the only thing that keeps me from learning certain things at home.

90% of all Windows tools have a 180 day eval. I believe that SCCM is one of those tools.

Crashing and banging from the unit above me until at least 3am, woke up to this delightful water blister on my bathroom ceiling. Hoping I have nothing required of me today beyond a zombie like level of functioning.

Run.

@JaredBusch said in Looking for a 10 inch or so android tablet:

A couple years ago we ordered a number of Galaxy Tab 10. They have generally worked.

The current version of them will also likely work well. But they are $250, so it is worth a short amount of time to look for other models.

I have a 2017 version of that. Really like it.

Head cold is killing me. Damn daycare germs.

IIRC Microsoft moved their EU headquarters, or at least their German Headquarters, to Munich not too long ago. At the time they first started talking about moving back to Windows.

It wasn't that this project was a failure, although using their own Linux OS probably was, it was that there was a ton of money invested by Microsoft and they are now seeing the return.

They are letting you use a computer in daycare?

Nah, my 1 year old had a cold last week and now I've got it. Easier to blame it on daycare.

HAProxy

So this is what I am trying to accomplish, Prior to this setup I had 5 static ip's. Now I have only 1 ip. I have 2-3 web servers that are vm's. One is an odoo, and 2 different screen connect servers. I want to be able to use port 80 on each server, router them to there local ip. 10.0.0.x but still use there example.com name

Yeah, you're looking for a reverse proxy.

Found out that I will be paying 100$/month for phone and 3/1 Mbps internet connection. I am unable to drop the phone line to make it cheaper... The costs of living rural.

That is beyond ridiculous. Not worth it at all.

No other options where we're at. Although according to the FCC this is a competitive market.

@Dashrender said in Datto AP60:

OK that makes sense... But managing 20 firewalls (one after each AP) yet keeping the network flat sounds HUGELY painful at min.. where the Meraki interface handles that all for you.

It would be a huge pain in the ass, but why do you feel the identical situation is easy with Meraki and hard with Unifi? It's a pain equally in both cases. Remember, we just established that it's a name game with Meraki and that technically there are 20 firewalls there just like with the Unifi. In both cases you have a site manager and a single pain of glass, but in both cases you are choosing to deploy twenty individual firewalls all throughout your wireless (but not wired) network.

No matter how you slice it, that's a crazily complex situation that Meraki has no way to fix over Unifi.

Because with Meraki - it's a point and click set of changes... Even with a total Unif situation there wouldn't be the ease of finding said AP and simply clicking to change a setting... but again - someone it's actually all that likely to do this - so it's mostly a moot point.

....Have you ever used Unifi networking equipment?

Because there's one ISP in the area and one a mile or twenty away.

The other provider is ~10 miles away.

They're 800$. I know that will be inexpensive for what they are... but seems pricey for Ubiquiti.

Yep been trying to sell our house for a year and a half.

@MattSpeller said in UniFi AP XG - Anyone running one yet?:

@coliver anyone published an eta on that? I don't have to make a move on this for a year

Not sure about Unifi. Our vendor is going to be sending us a demo unit Q1 for their stuff... not that we have any clients to use with it yet.

Well, congratulations! So what next? Moving to a tent city or just camping out in random wooded areas every night?

Both? We're squatting at my Grandparents for a few months (they are snowbirds) until the market refreshes and some new stock comes out... or we decide what we want to do/where we want to be.
