@JourneymanGeek I've got a couple of cheap TP-Link routers with external antennas, a cheap Trendnet with external antenna, and a Netgear something or other. Not to mention the old Buffalo 54G something. And a huge pile of (sometimes very large) antennas...
I had a fantasy of using grounding pairs at either end, plus an LED embedded in the jack, so you could push a switch at one port and the other port it was plugged into would flash a bright LED
I'm downvoting that crappy answer. It doesn't work at all.
The term 'git' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

I left my current employer. I came back after 90 days. Nobody could send me email (or IM me) for the same reason, I had to send instructions around to tell people how to clear the cache.
I remember the very first time I ever dealt with a rack mounted server. I convinced my boss that it was worth paying extra for a proper rack mounted one - regardless that we didn't have a rack, and that we would eventually get one.
Imagine my pants-shitting when I plugged it in and hit the power button and nothing happened for a good 30 seconds
I thought I'd wasted our money, but of course it eventually came alive after doing whatever it is that servers do during that period
Not even that complicated. It's ... I mean, your webapp uses your database server, and then the CPU on the database server spikes to 100%. Very puzzling. I wonder if the root cause of that CPU usage might be the webapp.
@RyJones Probably because many of them are so useless. Similar problem the rest of us face. "Oh, you know how to server? That's awesome! You can be our new systems engineer!"
Like our DBA who can't write a query. Or even backup and truncate his translogs.
The devs hate you because you keep rubbishing their data structures. The sysadmins hate you because SQL servers take a lot of resources. The SAN admin hates you because you keep complaining to him about disk latency. The users hate you because they blame you for the shitty performance. Your boss hates you because you're expensive and a nessesary evil. Your wife/husband hates your idea of foreplay is discussing ACID complaince
The security team hates you because you have full access rights to the servers and the data on them
@HopelessN00b One of our largest customers, a huge national corporation with thousands of employees and dozens of brands, I asked if I could have a conference with their DBA to discuss some performance issues our app was having. Their response was "Oh, we don't have a DBA. We just figure thigns out as we need to. We do have this one guy that we use but he's $450/hour so we only use him in disasters"
Yeah, sounds about right. And you just know there's a manager or executive making a quarter mil who can't figure out why they have so many database problems. <sigh> The world's a depressing place.
@HopelessN00b You have to be careful. Boeing calls people DBAs, but what they do is follow a manual and run a pre-written script. They no nothing about actual DBA work.

@pauska Any will do, but you may struggle to replicate some of the application-aware monitoring that's built into NetScaler
To be quite honest, though, that's mainly for load balancing the XML service which can be nice to do but I'm not convinced it's half as useful on the modern flex architecture in XenDesktop and XenApp 7 onwards. The reason being that you'll generally only have two XML services anyway, they're very capable of serving lots of requests and the infrastructure has built in failover anyway.
[poster's boss] asked me to take a look at a bug in a weather forecast script in the sidebar of a news website that my company manages. I open up the script (which is annoyingly only accessible in-browser through the CMS), fix the bug, and get back to my other projects.
The next day, the newspaper editor stops by and asks me to take a look at the weather forecast cause it's "acting strange." Long story short, approximately 6,000 area residents were informed that the weather in their county today would be "Butty with light rain in the evening."
Sometime something in the sidebar catches my attention, one such lead me to this comment
> This is why schoolchildren should learn math operations with set theory, because it is much easier to understand the abstract concepts. Fractions are only hard because people don't understand what a multiplicative inverse is.
@pauska Nah, just the service that connects to the XML server (StoreFront or WebInterface) can take a list of XML services. If one fails, it'll bypass it. Not as configurable as a load balancer, but perfectly functional
@Basil school I worked at previous had issues with this - it was a boarding school and the internet got switched off at midnight to"encourage" the students to go to bed. They couldn't stop the students using MiFI devices though which was causing major issues due it being unfiltered.
@pauska We have, and I'm not sure it works how you think it does
It's going to depend heavily how the app interacts with Excel. If it's just a file association then Local App Access *may* do the trick, but I'm not sure. It's also a Platinum only feature, making it hugely expensive.
If the app does anything clever with API calls or what have you, then you'll need Excel installed on the Citrix server, just like RDS
gah... I really really really don't want excel installed there
it'll confuse the users

OK Comms Room question of the day: Does "professional capacity" dictate that you keep vendor/OEM support contracts in place for equipment you either don't know well enough to troubleshoot completely by yourself or deem critical/important to your business?
I ask based on these types of questions: serverfault.com/questions/638949/… -- where the OP has a Juniper SSL VPN appliance but doesn't maintain support options for it.
Yeah, I get it's a business decision. I just find it interesting that a company would put a piece of equipment in place they paid for that is pretty dang important but with no support (or lapsed support).
As a school I'm shocked though Tom...I figured with the educational discounts OEM's give out that support would be $3/year
A lot of the stuff we had put in with the build (digital signage, tv streaming) don't do discounts for education. It's an enterprise product with enterprise pricing.
:18286641 We use Concerto...works well enough. We also use Wirecast and some HD webcams to record a "news broadcast" that then gets incorporated into Concerto.
@TheCleaner We had a system called VBrick. It's horrifically complex and the engineer reccomened the person running it spend 5 hours a day in managing, updating, and tagging media.
I wish they did "Plex for Edu" with AD login. That would be sweeeeeeeeeeet.
@MichelZ By the bash exploit, no less. I couldn't patch it on Squeeze without using the LTS release, so I nuked it (should have anyway) and installed Wheezy
@cole funny enough...at my last company the SQL dba required it...and yet when we did our DR tests it was always with the SQL agent backups from Commvault. Silly, and completely redundant...which is what happens when 2 opposing IT forces square off.
EMC wanted to sell us Avamar so bad...it sounded awesome during their sales pitches...but man it was expensive for 6 global sites to deploy. We ended up with Commvault instead and really liked it.
So since it's a slow morning I was thinking of IT stuff I've never deployed but wanted to:
- blade servers (yup, never have...always went with 1U servers instead as vmware hosts with a SAN backend) - Compaq Himalaya -- just because the name was awesome enough - IBM z Series -- which I'm told requires a z Series specialist to setup, maintain, etc. - BGP Routers - just never had a need/reason to - Hyper V -- how sad is that for a Win centric admin? I know it enough...just never deployed it. - Big Data stuff - never a need
@TheCleaner hmmm...I'd love to deploy some sort of config. management. I've done a bit with Hadoop, Hyper-V, and a lot with blade servers (especially Cisco UCS).
@MichelZ Well, yes and no. It all depends on how it plays out. Obviously, they're going to need onsite staff there, and as it's in Georgia I don't think flying down there when shit hits the fan is efficient, haha.
I need to create my custom CentOS DVD(not a live DVD or CD), that contains specific packages, network configuration,... and preinstall and postinstall programs and scripts after installation something like AsteriskNow.
I don't found any tools to dot that, can you recommend one?
Note: I followed...
I’d like to remove the old "DC" domain controller and just move forward with the DC1 and DC2 controllers. Do you have any objections to this or do you know if the various things you setup are directly referencing it at all (firewall and vmware specifically come to mind). From the research I’ve done, all I should need to do is transfer the FSMO roles and demote the server. Do you have any objections/concerns?
