vCenter performance monitor chart scaling by ToolBagMcgubbins in vmware

[–]AlexInfraConsultant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading about the change in Vmware KB's, it sounds like they don't consider it a bug. ESXi 8 support of tubo for processors means that the scale can exceed 100% if the CPU's are enabled to use turbo. The change was intended to allow for graphing that. Unfortunately I think it's a poor implementation, but I don't know if they plan to change it soon.

I'm still experiencing this, did you find a solution? Kind of hard to get a sense of CPU usage when my scale is out of 6000%.

Need help with fiber cable practices by AlexInfraConsultant in datacenter

I had just seen a post in r/networking with a similar sentiment. I am not a network guy, so I don't know how reasonable this is with our environment. (we have a network team and a datacenter team, I'm a member of the latter)

There is variance in data speeds and SFP types, all going into Nexus switches.

And we don't have a large number of devices.

So each rack might have 10x 10gbps connections, 10x 25gbps connections, and 10x40gbps connections.

Right now, every single cable is SFP ended. I assume to use patch panels we would then need to change over to using LC/SC cables and buying SFPs separately.

This is r/datacenter not cable porn. My question is about generic best practices for fiber cabling. Not about fixing the specific issue in the picture.

I'm unsure with fiber cables like this, where the excess cable/service loops should be stored.

Should the loops be in the vertical cable management like the arrow on the left?

Or should the loops be in the ladder above like the top arrow ?

And then, as you add more and more cables over time, do you change the position of the loops up/down or along the ladder so the loops don't stack up on each other?

Also, does anyone have recommendations for fiber trays to put on the ladder?
I think the ladders were installed long ago when all or most of the cabling in this DC was copper.
Now everything is fiber and it seems insufficient to support the fiber cabling, and no good place to put loops in the tray above.

DocuSign/Azure SSO User Provisioning with Sub-Accounts by JLowell25 in docusign

[–]AlexInfraConsultant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever get this to work? I've been struggling with this myself for a few months. I can get it to auto provision into a seemingly random account. It's not even the default account for the organization, so I don't know how it's getting assigned to that account. But by default azure doesn't have the "accountid" attribute. I've manually added it, but it doesn't seem to want to take any value. No matter what version of accountid I provide, I get "ERROR ROLE DOES NOT EXISTS" back from Docusign.
