@Iain: its supposed to compartmentalize the old faq page - the problem is without per page links, its a lot harder to use. I can't go - just read faq
I have to go find the link and manually create the link. For someone who wants to take the effort to comment on why something is closed, precisely, its a PITA
One I was going to close then repoen because I couldn't believe someone had v-t-c it. I think they jump the gun on when they tell you off too, should be when you actually v-t-c it
As part of a migration of over 100 systems, I need to identify what data is passing between systems. There is no known documentation and aside from questioning the users of the systems of how information is created, where it is stored, where it is being used I would like to be able to identify a ...
I have a server With adress 80.39.X.X that I want to have Access to another server range in my network 10.1.16.0/24. They are both in my network, behind a Checkpoint firewall.
When I try to Reach this server from one of the others, I get a drop on a rule in the firewall that we have set

@DennisKaarsemaker I love when I get direct e-mails with big huge pre-requisities that I simply don't have and don't appear anywhere in my CV, LinkedIn profile or elsewhere
Anyone done Sysprep on Windows 7 with multiple language packs?
@FalconMomot Mind you - I saw the classic last week. Thought I'd have a peruse and found a company who wanted someone with experience with a product that Citrix only released a few weeks back. Uh yeah, good luck then.
I'm going to take a year of open studies at another local university (we have 3 operating in the city), transfer the stats in as a prerequisite even if it extends my graduate b. comm. by one course, and continue.
I point these things out because the people I know in real life are smart enough to then think "oh! this is actually an architecture problem and we need to rethink our approach!"
we're having a hard time filling that specific position
we basically want someone who knows mysql at large scale (or other databases and shows willingness to learn mysql and talent to do so), who can both think strategically about business growth (and its effect on systems) and debug hard database problems
I recently started in a company that hasn't done some proper inventory on the server infra, now one of our servers has shut down and we cannot find it! dont even know if its a VM or a box.
Is there anyway to find a server that shut itself down, arp tables don't show anything as its gone over 12...
What i am trying to do is to make a bash script on Linux, the target of the script is to take a list of url's and to download them. So i wrote a script and its works but my problem is that all the url's are come from the same website so i made a sleep for 5 min after each url and it will take a l...
Any suggestions for conferences to attend? I complained about the lack of level 400 content courses they usually send me on, and the reply was "Find a conference with interesting topics and we might just send you"
I feel like I may know the answer to this already but....
Out in the UK they need to have a folder that users can create subfolders and rename them, and also that users can create a file in there and rename it OR copy a file into that folder/subfolder. However, once the file is in there it cannot be modified or deleted and becomes read only.
They're trying to do this with NTFS permissions - my brain is telling me this would need to be a 3rd party app/or something like WORM on the storage side
He said" I've tried removing the Modify permissions but that does not work because when you are copying a file in there it creates a .tmp file first and then needs to delete that .tmp file. If there are no Delete permissions then it cannot remove the .tmp file"
This is entirely possible with NTFS rights, but it is far from a standard configuration. We had to do something similar, create drop-boxes: directories where students could copy in files, but couldn't delete them once there, or see any other directories. Doable with some custom work.
The key is ...
Having some trouble with my Google-fu this morning.
What if a user got only write access to a file? Is he able to read the file or only to "write"? But if you can write...you can also read, so this doesnt make sense or?
The question is for unix-like system also for windows system, Im sure there is a difference right? Thank you
@NathanC so girlfriend/exgirlfriend whatever the hell she is.... texts me at yesterday to tell me to have a nice day and to tell my friend she said hi. Then nothing after that. wtf.
The way we're supposed to be doing it is, the three people on call should be doing 2 hr shifts. (8-10, 10-12,1-3, 3-430) Not that they cant work on projects or anything else - but they're supposed to be responsible for watching tickets in that two hour period.
Funny thing - I got a call every night but one last week when I was on call. No after hours calls this week. The ones I got could have waited till the morning, but they still called me - but same types of tickets are coming in this week - and no phone calls to the on call people. wtf.
I'm investigating some 4TB database systems and I'm comparing differences between RAID-10 & RAID-50.
I know how to calculate the IOPS for common RAID levels like RAID-1, RAID-5 & RAID-10. However, I am unsure how to calculate IOPS for RAID-50 & RAID-60 systems, specifically with respect to the R...
Well, I feel like there's not enough context... If DAS, only certain hardware solutions even give the option for RAID50/60... If he's using software RAID, there's a whole different set of issues. If using a large number of disks, there are other design elements at play (SAS oversubscription, cabling, controller type)... There's always the caching aspect... etc, etc...
@ewwhite A lot of that stuff takes what he's trying to calculate and then negates it. He's trying to see looking at disk only what the raw performance should be
@ewwhite It's made my mainframe a little faster. We don't need it for any of the open systems platforms yet, but when we start adding more of it, it'll increase performance on those workloads too
We have a very high locality of reference on the most important things, so our 700GB cache already provides a pretty blazing speed as measured by the apps
Isilon is a nice idea, but it's too new to be trusted with real critical prod
It scales better than netapp, but if you can't use a netapp to do the job, you are almost better building your own zfssomething than going with something like isilon
I'm trying to find documentation about what vmware settings the netapp host kit modifies. I know I need to mess with the io timeouts if I want to be able to keep my VMs running through a cf takeover, but I can't find anything that's not about nfs...
If I'm running VMWare 5.x on FC disks presented from a Netapp running ontap 8.x in 7 mode, what steps should I take to ensure that the VMs can withstand a worst possible case cluster node failover? HBA settings? ESX settings? Modifications to the VMs' settings? I know this is all handled with the...
