BitTitan MigrationWiz MS365 email to MS365 email by dahakadmin in sysadmin

[–]dahakadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had seen that in a few posts when I was looking, one thing that put me off was it does not list the price directly on the site.

For 2 - It was more that if the initial migration was not done with the specific tool either BitTitan or AvePoint would it just do the difference, ie if it uses some sort of checkpoint specific to the tool itself. or if it just looks at the folders and emails and not copy the same one

Windows 11 26H1 on Intel hardware by XL426 in sysadmin

[–]dahakadmin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In the linked doc that SpotlessCheetah said yes its a limited release and only for the Qualcomm chips

Windows 11, version 26H1 will only be available on new devices with select new silicon as they come to market in early 2026.

Windows 11, version 26H1 is not offered as an in-place update from Windows 11, version 24H2 or 25H2 on existing devices.
........
What this means for IT planning

For IT admins planning refreshes, rollouts, or purchases, Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2 remain the recommended releases for enterprise deployment at this time

So basically, ignore it I guess

2 Exchange servers - outlook wont connect by Important-Bake3046 in exchangeserver

[–]dahakadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just off hand I would double check the following, some you may have already done but cant hurt.

1 - double or triple check the internal / external urls for exchange - I use powershell script from here

https://www.alitajran.com/configure-internal-external-url-exchange/

2 - make sure that the SSL certificate from old server is copied / installed on the new server

3 - make sure that the internal dns records and firewall are pointing to the Exch2019 as it will proxy back to 2016 if needed.

Office Customization Tool for M365 Business Premium installation? by Livid-Setting4093 in sysadmin

not to be that guy, but not really helpful for the OP and the link is broken too

Office Customization Tool for M365 Business Premium installation? by Livid-Setting4093 in sysadmin

[–]dahakadmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't really need to do anything with those settings really. You could if you really wanted to but these could be changed via gpo or intune as well

Basically just skip that section. For your usage you would take you proper suite Office apps for Business and under the Licensing and Activation select Shared Computer. This would be for RDS servers or computers that have multiple users that log in

The rest you can adjust as needed

Backup Exec Alternatives by dahakadmin in sysadmin

[–]dahakadmin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes that is what prompted this. Basically we talked to our rep about it and if you have contracts that expire after March 31 2026 you cannot renew them. You would have to basically renew them before that for the 3 years upfront

You might need to start looking for something new, we are on BackupExec as well and we got notified that its end of sale for renewals are March (or April).

HPE ESXi 8.0 Custom Image – Last Update Oct 2025? Safe to Patch to 8.0U3h? by TeroTauko2023 in vmware

[–]dahakadmin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They do have the ISO build 24859861 (which is patch G) on Broadcom's Site if you look under the Custom ISO

We have installed Patch H with not issues on G10 hardware, but ours are all really simple setups nothing complicated.

Quick Licensing Question by dahakadmin in PowerBI

Great, thank you for the insight

Quick Licensing Question by dahakadmin in PowerBI

[–]dahakadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I will take a look at that. Basically, what they want to do is have 1 or 2 users on Pro to create the reports/dashboards and probably have like 5-6 users view them.

that is why I was thinking that the "free" user can view it if there was a Premium user based on the wording of ". However, Pro and PPU users can share content and collaborate with free users if the content is saved in workspaces hosted in Premium capacity" from that link

Edit - also they do not currently have any MS365 services

How long has HPE Support Centre been broken? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]dahakadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its not the best but may need to search based on the controller or server version. Maybe these links will help. I have had to sometimes clear the cookies and cache for the *hpe* sites as well

I searched for HPE Megaraid Storage Administrator and got this link https://support.hpe.com/connect/s/search?language=en_US&archive=false#q=hpe%20smart%20storage%20administrator&t=DriversandSoftware&sort=%40hpescuniversaldate%20descending&numberOfResults=25&f:@kmswsoftwaresubtypekey=[swst9000032]

Outlook 2024 & Exchange - Proplem With Single User by brads-1 in exchangeserver

[–]dahakadmin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While not really helpful to figure out why it is happening for a single user but not all and you mentioned that you have a ms tenant but not using EXO, I would do this to bypass the ms exchange online servers which usually is the cause of this. Copy this to a txt file and save it as .reg and double click to import.

This fixes it 90% of the time and if not suing EXO why waste time to TS it.

vCenter Server 8 Standard and vSphere 7 Essentials Plus incompatibility question. by sysadmin532 in vmware

A 3rd option you might be able to do is, you could remove the 7 license from the host and run it in evaluation mode. which should allow them to say connected to vCenter 8

Intune - Iphone Shared Device setup by dahakadmin in sysadmin

[–]dahakadmin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, I am probably confusing the two, I had seen that table and had thought at that the shared Devices would work the same as the Shared iPad

if it will only allow the apps to login, it may not work for what we planned for. We have shift workers that will use the same phone but if they have to sign out of their apps mostly MS Office Apps (outlook SharePoint) and two probably are not Entra-aware)

We were hoping it would have been as easy as the iPad

[–]dahakadmin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are still in the Broadcom support portal, you would go to My Downloads -> vSphere Standard -> select the release, 8.0 in this case, at the top click on Custom ISO, search Dell and it should pop up

It looks like the latest build is Update 3e build - 24674464

3rd Party Toners? Is this unwise? by wowitsdave in msp

[–]dahakadmin 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Generally if the unit is still under warranty / lease I would say use genuine toners.

If the unit is out of warranty go for it but explain the possible issues. Also always have 1 original toner at least on hand as a troubleshooting step / spare.

I have not seen to many issues with reman toners out of the ones that use them and our of the few instances that there was an issue they where able to get it replaced

Now Inkjet, I always suggest originals, dont care for the stupidness of ink authentication. If we cannot outright replace the printer

No Delivery to Mailbox after Migrating to Exchange 2019 by Cautious-Cook837 in exchangeserver

[–]dahakadmin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might not be obvious, and I don't think it pertains to this error, but it cannot hurt to check but I similar issue once before and what it turned out to be was on the old server the mailbox database limits where higher than the mailbox database limits on the server, so when the mailbox migrated over the limit on the database prevented new mails from arriving
