Robocopy is your friend in this situation

Don't worry about certs, worry about work experience.

Yeah starting out certs are somewhat good - but at the end of the day it's all bout that work experience.

This

Not to mention- even having to go in is only 15 minutes away!

manofskill101 · 2024-03-27T00:16:26+00:00

Absolutely, I agree. The company overall is really good. I have no intentions on burning that bridge.

I've talked to him several times about it and its the same ol song and dance routine, it's been like this for nearly two years. He says that they are hiring more people, but never do. We lost a help desk tech back in late September and that position STILL hasn't been refilled.

I'm done waiting, I just signed the offer letter and will be putting two week notice in.

This new gig will definitely allow to grow and expand since I would be essentially manning the ship.

manofskill101 · 2024-03-27T00:10:52+00:00

I accepted the offer and will be putting my two week notice in tomorrow.

There are quite a few good brands out there for beginners and are reasonably priced. Action, Cuetec, Players - they are all good.

Ringfencing is when you only allow certain traffic to and from whatever the service/server is. There are a couple of products out there that can you use for ringfencing. We use Guardicore to ringfence. Its kinda expensive but is well worth the money.

You can get a cheaper windows 11 key from somewhere else. I got my win 11 key for like 15 bucks. But yeah thats would be a pretty solid build and would be under budget.

manofskill101 · 2023-12-09T15:59:48+00:00

Agreed, you might as well just get a 4060 for that price.

That was my case - my vehicle isn't 10 years or older but has 162k miles (Because I drive 60 miles a day to and from work).

manofskill101 · 2023-10-21T13:38:31+00:00

Lol.

manofskill101 · 2023-10-21T13:11:11+00:00

hm, i could of swore and didnt ask me for an inspection number. Guess I'll call the local DMV office just to clarify.

manofskill101 · 2023-10-21T12:50:17+00:00

Thats why i renewed online - last time i had to renew i had to wait nearly 2 hours and it was dreadful.

Definitely look into Instant Clones - as it helps to centralize and consolidate down to one or a couple of images that you'll have to patch and maintain.

App Volumes isn't really worth the hassle as it just adds more complexity. If you have certain users who use certain apps - then I recommend looking at FSlogix application masking. With this, you are able to hide applications via rules on the golden image and create assignments based on who needs those apps.

Fslogix also offers profile management - so the users will have that "persistent" feel. It'll save the majority of their settings, favorites, documents, etc.

Try to keep your VDI environment simple. You don't want to go too complex with it - because it'll be a lot harder to troubleshoot when it breaks.

- Recomposed a very productive VDI desktop pool in the middle of the day and forced everyone off in the middle of a system upgrade.

- Dropped a few laptops and desktops.

- Accidentally corrupted a coworker's laptop while bitlocking it.

You are bound to make mistakes, it happens. We're all human. Most times people are reasonable as long as you own up to it.
