Commandline, even though the results are in a gui window.

Much easier to remember than a whole line of code.

ok, dumb question maybe?

Can I run up a Linux host on Hyper-V? I think I can but I've never read up on it, only seen headlines in emails etc etc.

I have several Hyper-V hosts I can use.

No, but you can install a linux GUEST on hyper-v

Tell him the platters on the SSD are so small you need a microscope to find them

Over the last couple of years I've started suffering from a wrist inflamation which gets really bad when I try to use a normal mouse. A vertical mouse is bearable for me. I tried trackballs but the're not my thing.

@scottalanmiller said in Infrastructure Needed for Hypervisor Cluster:

Clustering is done when the cost of clustering is low versus the risk of not clustering.

I would change that slightly to Clustering is done when the cost of clustering is low versus the cost of not clustering. A risk is always a cost, but some costs are not risks. For example taking down a hypervisor for maintenance vs moving guests to another node and taking down a free node for maintenance.

Misread. So how much of the 170TB is used immediately and what's the projected growth rate?

Not relevant. The concept is that we need 170TB usable. Usable implies available now.

You are asking a different question to resolve a different problem.

Your own configuration does not provide 170TB usable. You calculated using unformatted capacity, and didn't take into account that even unformatted, a 14TB drive is only a decimal representation used for marketing, which takes another chunk out of the usable capacity

@Oksana Very curious as to the definition of 'morally obsolete IT infrastructure'
