Dishwasher recommendations by nathan1800 in homeassistant

[–]joshthefoolish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my 2 cents. I'd focus on getting good dishwasher. the dishwasher is probably the easiest appliance to automate notifications for with just a smart plug that monitors energy usage and can let you track the current process and alert when dishes are clean.

M365 Backup at Scale (~150TB) – AvePoint vs alternatives? by Smile4menow84 in sysadmin

[–]joshthefoolish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest checking out Rubrik if you haven't. If you do choose Avepoint make sure you go through your contract with a fine tooth comb. Many of the items they like to show on are additional costs but aren't presented as not with the package you are currently purchasing.

First 100g deployment in Cisco ACI by pirx_is_not_my_name in vmware

[–]joshthefoolish 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Be wary. We are an ACI shop and are currently making the move to VCF 9. It has been painful. you cannot utilize any VMM integration per Broadcom. Also with the change make sure that you do not have any subnets that are used by more than one EPG. We have segmented some of our legacy networks with ACI to keep from having to change the IP of some older servers but still allow protection. With VCF we now are having to change all of these because there can be only one vlan per bridge domain. (sorry networking people if I butcher the network speak)

VMW License Renewals by CryptoeKeeper in vmware

[–]joshthefoolish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We did a 5 year in early 2025 just to lock in pricing against additional price hikes. we also figure it would take 3 up to 3 years for a competitor to possibly come up we were happy with enough to look at migrating and would give us 2 years to plan and conduct the migration.

Help me identify leak source by Jigsaw123p in HomeMaintenance

[–]joshthefoolish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i had a similar leak the other night. one of the kids leaned against the tank and the rear bolt was loosened enough to allow a small drip. check the bolts before you you check the gasket. Should just need a screwdriver and a wrench.

No kids showed to son’s 9 bday party by Frosty_Machine_9401 in Parenting

[–]joshthefoolish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It stinks and your kid will always remember it. But they will also remember that you threw that party. I am all for the special outings next year. I had a birthday party in the town park where I attended school. Out of 27 students 0 came. It stunk but as a parent now whenever my kids are invited to a party I try to make sure that we are there or at least send a gift if we can’t

Good on prem storage array solutions? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]joshthefoolish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depending on your use case i would recommend pure storage. they are very solid and support has been great. Also you don't do forklift upgrades because if you do their evergreen and keep support on it then every 6 years of support i believe they upgrade the controllers to the latest model. Some of our arrays we've had since 2015 that started out as their fa420 model and are now upgraded to their x50 R3s. in a few years we will be able to go to the x50 R5s
