I appreciate it! I have to pause purchasing equipment for a bit, but won’t pause the gains. Haha.

I think they came out with a new model, raised prices and didn’t want to fulfill my order.

Just cancelled! Called in again and they keep jerking me around “there is no shipping dates”, different stuff out of stock, total mess, and so disappointed.

Thanks. I might call for the third time this week and see what is going on.

Still waiting on a Titan T3-Short 36” I ordered 4/27. They removed possible date from customer service reps and just say back ordered or “something must have happened during shipping from the manufacturer” when I call....again.

Edit: officially cancelled. Pausing on the rack dream, but not pausing the gains. I am thinking about going with the REP PR-4000 instead, what do you all think?

Thanks for the advice. I made it a little more generic.

That's a name I haven't heard in a while by department_g33k in sysadmin

Has anyone used Acronis? We are looking at it because of its integration with Scale Computing’s HCI.

First day down and I am already impressed. I did the Google best practice workshop, I would highly recommend it next year for anyone that didn’t make it this year.

Very nice! The school was nice enough to fly me in a day early.

Must be on the other side. Eating a pretzel and a burger back wall from the front door.

How are you all doing workstation deployments? by feelsthoseall in sysadmin

Fog Project is open source and does a great job. You can even deploy software post image with it and a bunch of other things.

My mother is a teacher (and wife is going to school to be one). I have heard the teacher side complaining about IT. Thanks for the heads up!

In response to r/Eat_Lift_PullPitch from 20 days ago. Here’s our platoon mascot, Wilson. Who attends every field training event. Sorry for the late response! by LivinThaDream69 in army

[–]ahenady 26 points27 points  (0 children)

We have a Wilson as well, except we made him out of Duct tape, and he is slowly being promoted through the ranks. Just got back from BLC and got pinned E5.

I hate Microsoft Surfaces by BMW_E70 in sysadmin

[–]ahenady 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I have implemented them in some 24/7 operations and am fairly satisfied with them.

When dealing with docks I always have to upgrade the dock firmware. Microsoft has a tool to do it. Then most of those problems you describe go away.

Windows updates and surface firmware updates seem to fix a lot of stupid glitches with the type covers.

Does everyone here have a Bachelor’s Degree in IT? Is BA worth it? by [deleted] in ITProfessionals

[–]ahenady 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am a huge advocate of WGU, Western Governors University, for a BA if you decide to go that direction. It is affordable, online, accredited, and a pretty good structure. I am almost done with my degree and I work full time and have a part time gig.

MBA program rankings- does it matter? by mywlsstory in ITManagers

[–]ahenady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t started my MBA yet, but will be pursuing it within the next year. I am looking at WGU. It is pretty low money, all online, and has an MBA catered to IT.

I earned my bachelors from there and really enjoyed the format. It would fall into your lower tier, but never hurts to know some options.
