What is this, lol.

One of the reasons I seem to be going on SW more and more
p.s. what's happened to the smiles?

Installed OSTickets and started to update the settings etc and all seems good.
But i'm having an issue with editing the Offline Page. When I add images and upload them they display when i'm editing the page but if I view the site the images don't load:-

Trying to clear my desk so I can "play" with the ubiquity switch that arrived yesterday.

OK so everyone has said it before "How can you buy a server before you know what your needs are"

Well I want this thread to be a bit of a How-To for the little guys to find out How do you find out your needs so you can spec and recommend a new system. Hopefully it will be expandable too do it can cover from just a single server to clusters.

I'm about to go through this and I know the MSP has already said the deadly word SAN! to the powers to be. So I want to do my own tests and come up with an alternative (maybe 2, Scale and a Home build with Xen7 and some VSAN type thingy). But before I recommend I need to know what I need in power

Which switch did you get?

EdgeSwitch - 24 250w (ES-24-250W)

@Dashrender @Mike-Davis oops but that's not the final one it's only while I test it'll be a random one once I got it working
*Changed anyway

@hobbit666 Long weekend ahead though!

Is there a holiday?

There's two...Good Friday AND Easter Monday...4 day weekend ftw!!

I've also booked off Next Thursday and Friday as it's my Birthday and last day of school hols so only a 2 day working week lol

@Breffni-Potter said in Ubiquiti switches: UniFi vs EdgeMax:

EdgeSwitch = More specs, more features, individual boxes, no single pane of glass management.

At the moment there is a thing "UNMS" in development

2 day working week for me

@scottalanmiller said in Managing Hyper-V 2016 without Windows 8.1 or 10:

5Nine is really the leader and main player here. That's what I would use even if I had Windows 10

Yeah I use that, never used the Hyper-V manager in windows

Home time in 10minutes!

I've been avoiding HyperV because of management tool issues. With XenServer ESXi the tools just run, load them up and enter login details and off you go.

But I found HyperV there was a lot of messing to get a workstation to talk (especially if your on a different network/domain)

This might of gotten easier since the last time I tried HyperV but it put me off.

Re-installing FOG, (Because I deleted the bloody wrong VM!!!!!)

I hate sorting profile issues out.

More moving and waiting

Be nice if UNMS did unifi aswell for a overall one plane of glass overview.

Woop the wait is over

I'm trying to write something that will go through our Citrix server and "log off" all the disconnected sessions.

I can do this fine manually through PowerShell fine and works, but now I want to automate it so I can run it or even schedule it to run every X minutes/hours.

(Just trying it on 1 servers at the moment, I'm outputting the array(s) etc to check the results of the commands.
)

$servername = "xen30"
$pc = qwinsta /server:$servername | select-string "Disc" | select-string -notmatch "services"
$pc
That gives me a array :-

crav2 878 Disc
ryan 881 Disc
lanc4 885 Disc
clive 888 Disc
treg1 889 Disc
rob 891 Disc
paul 892 Disc
New2 893 Disc

The command i'm using is
logoff <id> /server:$servername

So what I need to do is "extract" the 2nd colum form the $pc list that gives me a list of id's then I guess use the foreach command to "inject" the ids into the logoff command.

Did you remember the coffee?

Don't like coffee.

Do you at least do tea? I don't need coffee in the morning anymore, but I still want some iced tea to start the day. A little caffeine instead of a lot.

Yeah we will have 6-7 cups of tea a day.

At this point, I'm considering trying out XenServer..

Look at KVM instead. There was something on here the other day about XenServer lol
