I'd be melting less if I could figure out why a (whole-file) rsync job is topping out at ~1Mbit/s when I can run an iperf alongside it between the same hosts at 20Mbit/s...
@MichaelHampton The SMC piece of crap we have for Comcrap doesn't support IPv6, DOCSIS 3, or what seems like any modern features... It's an ancient design.
@KennyRasschaert Yep. been there already. Actually running this job plaintext to an rsyncd at the other end to remove ssh from the equation entirely. Didn't seem to help.
@MDMarra If we ever get IPv6 around here, I'll get a SurfBoard... They threw the SMC one in free, we don't rent it... So it's hard to complain right now.
@MDMarra, did you say you use KIX? We use it for mapping our printers but one machine is throwing errors. All other machines it runs on works as expected.
@KennyRasschaert Nah, I grok the diffing mechanism (always use --whole-file unless there's an rsync process at the other end) and in this case, there's no remote files, yet.
rsync doesn't have any mechanism for tuning the TCP window, so I don't see why its TCP connection should be handled differently to iperf's. But it fits. the default 65k Window would put the BDP at ~2Mbit/s which is what the bigger files plateau out at.
@pauska GPO-based provisioning is far from the auto-magic you'd think it should it be... at least as far as I've experienced so far. Trying to find something less useless than the help files to read to explain why the fuck everything's recomending I "Unblock IPAM Access."
@Patrick Meanwhile, most server products require a license for each running instance of the server software you run on a server—whether in a physical or virtual operating system environment (OSE). However, some products provide broader use rights. For example, a Windows Server 2012 Standard edition operating system license permits a running instance in up to two virtual operating system environments, plus one host instance on the physical device at a time on the licensed server.
@okay, so it only has to do with the OS running on the server when it says OSE, i just wasn't sure if it meant, i can only has 2 OS types being managed on my envirnment.
@HopelessN00b I haven't even glimpsed at the product, didn't know that you deployed it via GPO.. what does it do, specifically? Is it an agent of some sorts?
@tombull89 i was looking at it from the SCCM viewpoint that maybe if it saw another OS type that it would be against the License, I didn't think it worked this way, but just wanted to make sure.
@pauska You don't have to use a GPO. Either GPO or manual provisioning. The GPO provisioning [allegedly] allows you to run a PS command to create your GPOs so the IPAM server can automagically get the info from the DNS, DHCP, AD and NPS servers without having to manually edit a shit-tonne of group memberships, create file shares, etc.
@MDMarra mix and match. everything worked fine except setting default printers. I spent a week troubleshooting and digging at it, and the final answer from Microsoft was that it's a known bug and that it will not be fixed for anything older than Win8..
@HopelessN00b aaah. yeah, that sounds like something that surely will break something.
@pauska Not sure if it missed a few things, or if our domain's being particularly slow in replicating today. Maybe I should go take a 4 hour lunch so we can be sure...
If it were an Update instead, it should work as expected
The first time a user logs in if it's set to update, it's hit or miss whether default status is set. But it should always be on the second policy application
With replace, that doesn't happen
At least that's how it was explained to me by someone at MS
I just always use update now, since there is a Delete action as well if I need to decomission something
we did try update as well, but then the default printer didnt get set at first login
so users had to log off and log on again.. kind of pain in the ass if you remember how we do printers here (map by location by looking at the rdp client ip and so on)
Had, actually, right now I'm about a third to that length. Was mucking with the new avatar settings here and found this old pic in gravatar so I too it for a spin.
They want someone with solid storage fundamentals but that can grow into that scale blah blah, so I was a little excited. But then it sounded like they were going to lowball
You can do this pretty easily in powershell doing something like
import-module activedirectory
get-aduser -filter {-not (description -eq "auto")} | measure-object
@ewwhite Or, if you're not willing to switch to Dell, tell your HP rep you're going to switch to Dell if they don't get you a server that actually boots up inside 4 hours.
@ewwhite What else could it be? Server hangs at power and temperature calibration. Unless there's a problem with the room temp, or power, it's gotta be a server problem. (Are you plugged into a UPS?)
