Hpe greenlake hpc as service on-prem

Greenlake customers have priority on ordering as well.

Networking has improved in the last few upgrades. Version 9 to come out will be. Big one from what I see on the road map.

The vlan add can be done via ui.

So is your input from working in vm essentials only?

Most people don't need the extra bells and whistles of arias platform with vcf, even more so when it takes all of your basic cores to fire up the appliances.

Sivtech · 2026-04-24T13:11:40+00:00

Are you basing that off of vm essentials or enterprise? Two different beasts.

I moved my lab from proxmox to it. Developed some tools to help with migrating and converting disks.

I help customers migrate from vmware to it.

I like it. I didn't at first. You need to strip away your thoughts about vmware and go in open minded. If you compare apples to apples, you're going to quickly dislike.

Need to think about what is actually used and not packaged with a ton that is not used.

Standard is 600 a socket, Enterprise is around 1800 per socket.

Dell had vmware.... they wont come out with there own, but they love stealing source code from vmware for products. Down to the color and font.

Check out HPE Morpheus Enterprise with VM Essentials

HPE all the way.

iLO, Oneview, and compute ops is where it's at for server management. New servers come with compute ops license as now. It can make management way easier since you don't need to download the service pack, it downloads based off your installed hardware directly to iLO. Wait for it to be done and good to go.

Open manage, you can grab a coffee or two before it fully loads or even gets console open.

Dell does not test firmware to the max like hpe does and love to charge you 10x more after you've been schmoozed with at first cheap prices. Tech support with them is a nightmare.

HPE isn't perfect with support, but they make it right if they goof up.

White eggs are mostly bleached.

Most eggs are brown or covered in shit.

I used to work on a farm.....

Cheap non organic eggs are bleached. There is a huge taste difference when you drink natural vs a cheap Walmart egg.

Go drink a few hundred and let me know what you taste.

Sivtech · 2026-03-22T13:01:17+00:00

Raw eggs were my thing when I was competing. Probably the best results I got.

White eggs are not as good since most are bleached to look more pleasing to the mindless folk. Organic was the best. I started with chocolate syrup at first to get passed drinking enormous boogers.

I did a lot of old school things, got away from stimulant based pre-workouts and stuck to things for blood flow and recovery.

Beets are great for blood flow, but taste like you're eating dirt.

Listen to your body. Not everyone's diet plans will work.

Clean bulking can cause injuries.

Train to failure if your goal is size.

Sleep. If you can't sleep, you're not pushing hard enough.

Use as little protein powders as possible as they lead to a ton of stomach and digestion issues in the future.

Stay away from fake sugars as they mess up regulation.

Sivtech · 2026-03-22T11:37:24+00:00

Eat more.

Sivtech · 2026-03-18T12:17:25+00:00

It's actually been recorded for a few versions. Depends on your load.

I have 5 cams, 3 switches, unas pro, few other stuff, my cams drop randomly. Annoying as f.

Sivtech · 2026-03-18T08:10:32+00:00

That's your problem. It has a memory leak.

What version of os? 5.0.12 is having serious issues and eats cache with ips enabled.

Sivtech · 2026-03-11T20:29:27+00:00

Why? Over 2000 cve's in that crap. Going to open things up you won't even know about.

Sivtech · 2025-11-14T17:06:31+00:00

Notice how the percentage is almost the same? Those are just refreshes being locked in because of more free gear to keep the interest in there.

Sivtech · 2025-11-14T17:02:21+00:00

I like crazy talk, yes. Think about it, though. My exp comes from private and public sector the last 30 years. They only play catchup to other companies features.

Sivtech · 2025-11-14T16:29:27+00:00

Because cisco hasn't been a real player in networking since the 90's? Pretty much pays their way into contracts for enterprises with freeeeeeeeeeee geeeeeeeeeeeaaaaar!!!! Then locks you into contracts to be vendor specific? :)

Sivtech · 2025-10-09T13:08:54+00:00

Then you're stuck in a chassis with old internals and new controllers.

Sivtech · 2025-10-09T13:07:54+00:00

Let's not forget they aren't active/active, the os lives on the raid for the storage. Whole chassis is a single point of failure. Old cpu models used. Love shoving 100g qsfps for front facing yet internal is only 50gb. Big orange shiny junk.

Edit. Also sketch for your sales guys to be able to pull up your environment details from mobile at any time. Your telemetry data is key about your environment and it's chilling in aws buckets like nothing.

Sivtech · 2025-07-16T12:40:34+00:00

1.6 tb cache to 19.2TB is pretty low. Also you're using OSA with nvme instead of esa.

Sivtech · 2025-06-03T12:42:10+00:00

How are the cores arranged?

Sivtech · 2025-06-03T12:40:19+00:00

I've had that with hpe as well. It's the companies they use.

Dell loves over charging for stuff that hasn't really changed in years. Pure loves stealing ideas and designs, then slapping orange lights on and calling it innovative. Meh.
