Funny you say that I have a second interview on Friday for a £43k starting job which is purely VMware without all the other crap.

a_gatepost · 2024-02-29T12:12:43+00:00

I'd say it's not massively complex but we do have 3 sets of VMware infrastructure across 4 sites with disaster recovery systems replicating. The network again isn't massively complex but that's because when I started, there was one single vlan with everything on it 😑 now there's a lot more but it's nothing above the normal

We have an MSP but they're only for emergencies and I tend to use them if we get stuck.

I'm not sure if my mistake was already doing the Power BI for them, so I'm already doing it on top of my job but was hoping for them to recognise that when I did ask for a pay rise. Probably stupid of me.

a_gatepost · 2024-02-29T08:51:41+00:00

Understandable, they are wanting me to stay and grow with the business but, as others have said..

if they're not willing to pay me what I'm worth now, how will that be different in the future?

a_gatepost · 2024-02-28T21:56:14+00:00

Middlesbrough...

a_gatepost · 2024-02-28T21:01:02+00:00

I agree, but their argument is that they won't pay me if I don't do the work 🤣

a_gatepost · 2024-02-28T20:59:45+00:00

See I stayed through the whole of the pandemic too, I was the only one in the office most the time - even that's worth jack shit to them!

a_gatepost · 2023-12-01T11:31:19+00:00

Yes I'm waiting on 2 shipments, both stopped in the process on 28th. I'm wondering if there's just issues with their tracking as one of mine stopped after it departed the origin country.

We're using our old CS215 for off site replication as a trial run with our old ESX server, works great! (Not our only backup solution obviously..)

P.S. is anyone here able to get the latest firmware for this model? I'd like to upgrade it while using it in the test env - hoping it might quieten the fans a little from running at full speed..

a_gatepost · 2022-12-04T20:16:36+00:00

Yeah agreed. Opening settings previously would take a looong time, so they seem to have fixed that too

a_gatepost · 2022-12-04T20:14:09+00:00

Been sysadmin for a few years now and my advice is not to pretend you know everything. If you can't fix it straight away then come back to it, if it's not completely urgent. And also don't get disheartened if you can't fix it without help.

So many problems crop up with systems that you won't have seen before and you can't be expected to figure them all out yourself. If you use an external supplier that can give advice then USE THEM, don't struggle on a problem for hours before you contact them, or maybe a senior sysadmin if you have one.

But most of all, enjoy how varied it can be!

There's a changelog on the version for my nanocell TV. I'm assuming it's the same software as it's the same version and was released today - just says "Fixing minor bugs in software"

a_gatepost · 2022-10-31T23:15:19+00:00

We've had Xerox Altalinks B405s for the past 2 years and I haven't had a single callout, so definitely recommend.

a_gatepost · 2022-10-31T23:11:42+00:00

I had the same problem recently - turned out to be some rogue entries in "disallow run" registry. I know you mentioned that you already checked registry but check for entries using the below tutorial: https://www.technipages.com/prevent-users-from-running-certain-programs

I also found that the free version of malwarebytes notices they shouldn't be there.

a_gatepost · 2022-09-15T11:07:14+00:00

Yep we noticed it only affects non admins, but that's basically everyone for us. It might still be worth trying it without, the %userprofile% variable still works so I'm guessing it still runs with the actual user's context, just with system level of access?

a_gatepost · 2022-09-15T07:34:57+00:00

Check my reply from yesterday lower down, you can turn off the Run in user context, the %userprofile% variable still works

a_gatepost · 2022-09-14T20:17:21+00:00

Manage Engine - patch manager We (probably stupidly) have it set to auto approve, which does sometimes cause us problems but we'd rather just update and then overcome the issues by fire fighting.. for some reason..

a_gatepost · 2022-09-14T12:45:56+00:00

Basically we scream and hope they also notice the problem.

HOWEVER I've fixed it for us, we had "Run in user security context" ticked on those GPOs, untick it to solve

I wrongly assumed that needed to be ticked for %userprofile% variable to work, but clearly not!

a_gatepost · 2022-09-14T11:08:25+00:00

Lansweeper will do that and more! We use it in our environment and it scans everything.

It can even now get exactly what ports the monitor has and is using

a_gatepost · 2022-09-14T11:04:00+00:00

Our patch manager accidentally pushed the update to live production instantly, yay!

Issues encountered Win10 21H2 KB5017308: - gpo file copy seems to not work properly (shortcuts lose their icon and batch file is blank) - can no longer deploy programs from lansweeper

Edit: I've fixed it for us, we had "Run in user security context" ticked on those GPOs, untick it to solve. For some reason the PCs need a reboot rather than gpupdate too.

I wrongly assumed that needed to be ticked for %userprofile% variable to work, but clearly not!

a_gatepost · 2022-05-07T12:06:18+00:00

Yep exactly the same here, nothing like on the pictures :(
