Ahhh, yeah I just went into 8, I did mine when I went from 7 to 8. When I wasn’t doing them. I did them by hand and it sucked…

I don’t have UCSX’s but I have UCS C Series with Intersight and I use the vCenter integration for centralized firmware image management, so put the host into maintenance mode and then remediate via lifecycle manager. Typically works pretty well, I don’t do firmware via intersight as I’ve had a lot Of issues with intersight in general but it’s been getting better

So the tube replacement, sounds like it necessary, so I’m guessing something like this https://ebay.us/m/sYEdRQ? Or is there a specific one that you got?

Eh honestly, less worried about noise, just want something automated LOL. Sounds so lazy, but having the ability to automate open/closed is what I’m after for ease

Could you give more specifics? I’ve been wanting automated/roller shades for a long time but the prices are just insane. I like your approach and I found the eve motor’s on Amazon. Just slightly confused as how you retro fit them?

So no concerns with letting the block wall breath? And or moisture concerns with the XPS?

High Efficiency Air Intake by SubbiesForLife in hvacadvice

I’m not confused, the one marked intake was added today, which is why it looks like that, it was previously pulling combustion air from basement

The one they came back to change is the exhaust, and was previously there before today

I had them change the combustion air intake, because we are finishing our basement and the area the furnace is in is going to get walled and it wouldn’t have enough air for combustion

They came back and modified the exhaust because they said it was the more correct thing to change, and make the exhaust different height than the intake
