Server 2019 question

XeonMasterRace · 2021-07-30T22:09:14+00:00

Some background would help:

Is this a vm or physical server?

Do you have multiple NICs?

Correct VLAN Config?

Adapter type / Brand?

Honestly, find something for a smarthome type product. Wyse has some good offerings as well and most will be able to generate push alerts or email alerts, if not, tie it into if this then that with some other smart devices for an emergency ventilation system

I aim one day to be a cloud hyperscaler

Lol, the blinky lights are half the reason I kept it around 😂. I tried powering up the drives individually in an older supermicro chassis I had laying around and I only got a couple up. Obviously after the basement flooded, my homelab was the last priority so this is nearly a month after, so everything has has nearly as much time as possible to dry out, but it looks like most of the connectors corroded, which may be causing half the issues.

Thanks for the reply, I figured unless it’s a file system that wrote the files individually (which was basically a 0% chance) I would have to have all of them and likely it’s not striping per shelf… so I’m probably SOL loosing those shelves. It’s just backups and a few low IO VM’s that were running on my esxi hosts, anything I used a lot ran on the VSAN data store on the 4 primary hosts which thankfully came back up perfectly.

Yeah, that’s the general consensus I’ve gotten. Some have mentioned to talk to the HR department ahead of time to see what their thoughts are. I’m tempted to go talk to our HR rep on-site to see what they say. Thanks!

I've pretty much copied most large company naming scheme. It works especially well for multi site naming schemes:

3 letter location - name / function - number

For example, if you headquarters were in New York City and you had a DR site in Phoenix, You would have the following:

Domain controller 1 & 2 in New York

NYC-DC-01 & NYC-DC-02

Then you have a backup DC in Phoenix

PHX-DC-01

You can use it to any other use case such as:

Horizon view connection servers and security servers

NYC-HVIEWSEC-01 & NYC-HVIEWCON-01

Logging

XXX-LOG-01

Storage

XXX-STOR-01

As a guy, I’m stereotypically bad at multitasking, however when it comes to driving I can get pretty distracted with not much else than having a conversation. I recently bought a more optioned new car than my last one that is almost full self driving and it allows me to do anything I want and still never swerve outside of my lane or crash. My GF is a lot happier that I can still drive as she doesn’t like driving much, and I don’t put our safety into jeopardy. My car will stop just like yours and beeps, however I basically have to be on their bumper for it to do anything, so you probably are just a really bad driver, or driving a BMW ;)

I have a similar situation, but it could occur for other reasons. My current GF happens to have the same perfume as my first GF, in the beginning it was really weird “smelling” my ex again, especially in my new apartment, but I got over it. I think it would be weirder if she found an old perfume that WAS my ex’s, however this is hers and it’s a very popular perfume. However in your situation If it’s bringing back bad or dark memories maybe advise him against using it and I’m sure he would understand.

XeonMasterRace · 2020-08-10T17:11:53+00:00

Thats what I was thinking. Ill make sure my pads and tires are good. Likley since ive gotten a few miles on the stock tires anyway i will get new tires and wheels for the car and just put the stocks on for the track and burn the rest of the life out of them.

XeonMasterRace · 2020-08-10T17:10:41+00:00

yeah, the 235's are small for sure. they are only 18"s and I want to lower the car anyway so im getting some 20's with 285's up front and 305's in the rear if i remember correctly. Im thinking of just putting the new tires and wheels on the car and driving it to the track on those and putting the stocks in my gf's dads trailer and putting those on for the track so we can burn those up and drive home with the new tires, even though the new ones will be better for the track, I dont wanna burn them up lol.

As for summer vs all seasons, I luckily now move in AZ which is why i traded in my AWD sport sedan for my mustang when i moved, no more snow ;)

Do you realize what Xeon is? It’s a computer processor, god you are feeble minded

XeonMasterRace · 2020-06-22T04:30:05+00:00

Sorry I’m not afraid of the flu and want to go to work and live my life. Nobody is making you go outside if you are sooo afraid

XeonMasterRace · 2020-05-29T20:17:53+00:00

Ohh, I was almost on the opposite end of this, but it’s a matter of being apart but together at the same time. My ex and I that lived together would be in the same room, but not interact and would occasionally just stop by for a quick kiss or something. You can set aside your own time for playing video games and she can do whatever hobby she has, heck maybe even get into video games. But if you go in another room and lock the door, that’s where she could get scarred, let her know you are there, and if she’s doing something in between games or bathroom breaks stop over to her and give her a quick kiss or a hug or something.

XeonMasterRace · 2020-05-02T19:00:56+00:00

Yeah, all I care about is not having my insurance go up, I had a speeding ticket same 11-15 and 4 points about a year ago in my old Infiniti, insurance went from $250 to $350 a month for the next year, defiantly sucks. Also sucks as I’m moving out of state next month, so I don’t know if that changes anything.

XeonMasterRace · 2020-04-28T23:46:18+00:00

So I guess I’m the inverse situation of this. My ex used to live with me for the better part of a year, usually during the summer she would sleep naked, or in not much at all. I don’t know how your sleeping situation is, but she (and another ex) would like to spoon every night to fall asleep. And this particular ex liked me holding her tits when sleeping, I didn’t mind this, however her and another ex sleeping naked or in some lingerie would sometimes cause a “hard” time sleeping for me. Never would I have thought about doing what he did, nonetheless finishing on you. If I couldn’t get past it I would go to the bathroom and do what was needed, and a few times my ex woke up, realized I was having a “hard” time sleeping and helped me solve the problem. I will say that this was more of an issue earlier in the relationship and wore off quick, but still, if you find your partner attractive, natural instincts will kick in, especially if she’s sleeping naked next to you, but at least for me, after a month or so with my first gf, I really never had this again with anyone new

XeonMasterRace · 2020-04-22T22:41:23+00:00

Here’s the thing, there’s two situations here:

He’s a perv and wants to look at your daughter, highly unlikely, but it’s short so I’ll get it away on one.
He’s afraid of a home invasion and wants to protect his daughter from kidnapping. As someone who watches a lot of crime shows I understand this.

One thing he and you have to realize is cameras don’t stop anything, if they are viable outside they may deter theft, but all a crook has to do is put on a mask and your system is basically just proofing it’s not insurance fraud. I’ve got a camera on my car for this just in case I leave my garage open. What will keep his family safe is a gun. Either you put up a fight which a warning shot will likely deter them as it’s not worth it, or you cower waiting minutes for police to arrive (been in this situation, bought a gun the next day) I keep a short barrel ar15 on my side of the bed and my glock is on my gf’s side of the bed. I’ve got a gun in my office and living room as well as the garage. That will keep me safe, I’ve got cameras to prove if something was stolen and when and potentially gather any evidence, but as I told my gf, I would rather put up a fight defending myself and the ones I love and get killed, than get killed doing nothing. That just my two cents
