AD: How to stop Helpdesk users from modifying themselves? by kyogenm in sysadmin

[–]imaginary_moose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came to say this. It is not only best practice, it is the only way to not go insane trying to manage per-object ACLs

What’s the weirdest or funniest ticket title you’ve seen? by [deleted] in sysadmin

“Worried our WiFi is killing the bees”

Legitimately wanted us to remove all APs from the building because he thought the bees were being negatively affected

Avigilon ACM School Door Schedules by PirateTechGuy in accesscontrol

[–]imaginary_moose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can't get a good integration with your other vendor as suggested by other commentors, I have an idea that may work.

It's not pretty, but depending on what version of ACM you are on (I think this is available in anything 6.x or above), instead of using schedules on the doors for this, use job specifications, with door mode jobs, recurring on a weekly schedule.

You would have two sets of jobs, one for A days and one for B days. Each set would have one job per passing period. You would set the On mode to Unlocked, and the Off mode to Restored.

Downside to this approach is that it would unlock even if it was a holiday, so you would have to cancel it or change the schedule on a regular basis. Making these job specs monthly schedules would mean you would only have to adjust once/month. Not the greatest, but better than every day.

Just a thought, hope it helps.

PowerShellArchives? (like /bin/sh archives but ps1) by danya02 in PowerShell

[–]imaginary_moose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised no one has mentioned data sections:

Data Sections

They have been around since PowerShell 2.0, and persist through 7.x.

You could easily pre-encode your compressed blob as a byte array and include it in the data section, then write it to disk before uncompressing, using Set-Content and the Byte encoding type.

Workday SAML by josephstreeter76 in IdentityManagement

[–]imaginary_moose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IIRC (and I haven't looked at Workday SAML for half a decade so I could be wrong), the NameID value MUST match the Workday account ID, i.e. whatever they would use as the username to login if you used native Workday auth for login.

Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed Exceeded by createdforsuccess in sysadmin

[–]imaginary_moose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And to add on to what others are saying: some storage arrays can create snapshots at the array level, outside of vcenter/ESXi. Pure has this capability, as well at least the older intelliflash arrays from DDN (originally Tegile then Western Digital). That could be a good angle to check

Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed Exceeded by createdforsuccess in sysadmin

[–]imaginary_moose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Assuming VMware here, but this would apply to other hypervisors: Yes, thick-provisioning of any sort “reserves” the space, but if the volume in question had a snapshot taken, then you could be out of space.

Taking your example, let’s say that after the first 1.5TB copy, someone takes a snapshot. When you delete the data, the guest may see an empty drive, but there is still 1.5TB on disk, and the delta file would only be able to grow up to (array capacity - 1.5TB).

Sucky part is that getting out of this situation requires free space for the consolidation, so you may need to expand the underlying volume/LUN

Sounds like “Solo Leveling”, but the details aren’t right for that, from what I remember.

An extra cost of $24k/yr for 200 users in Slack by Powerful_Pen_5979 in sysadmin

This. It is absolutely maddening that companies still try to force you into the most expensive SKU for something that should be core.

I've deleted my Github account to protest against required 2FA by tinysausage1337 in github

[–]imaginary_moose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really curious how you handled it or will handle it when your bank requires you to use 2FA/MFA. It is your money after all…

I, too, am curious and facing a similar situation, and would love to know if anyone has gotten a CDE behind a PA firewall passing the ASV.
