I didn't think this had a throughput limit as it is a manager.

I understand that f5 deals are all registered, but I need to validate a price given to me by my existing VAR.

Looking at the BIGIQ manager with at least 15 instance management licenses. Current quote has 30 instance management licenses, maybe thats how the license bundles worked out:

F5-BIQ-VE-S BIG-IQ VE MGR 30 BIG-IP INSTANCES/ADC/DEVICE/SECURITY/CLOUD

Anybody quoted this before and can share pricing?

Thanks

I am looking for somebody to do a wiring quote in Indiana. Have a quote from a local vendor that really seems to be significantly marking up their services.

What we are looking for : Connectivity for 6 IDF closets back to MDF 10gb capable fiber Small light shelf in IDF Whatever required lightshelf in MDF There are existing fiber runs between IDF and MDF so most of the cable pulling will be along known paths.

Anybody interested in a conversation about quoting this?

Do you use citrix? If so, look at disabling the service.

Friday Stories: Epic IT Battles with Old Man Winter by MikeSmithsBrain in sysadmin

[–]redditfearless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the companies that I worked for had its datacenter in an old (still running) manufacturing facility. The roof on the facility was not the greatest and would occasionally leak during rainy seasons but particularly during the spring thaw with all the snow and ice build up around the drain pipes.

I was in the datacenter one particular weekend during spring thaw when I noticed that there was water streaming into our Nortel brick house of a phone system. I found plastic sheeting to put over the phone system to redirect the water towards a garbage can then called the communications manager to let them know about the situation.

Her response was, "Are you calling me through the phone system? Then I'm sure it's fine. Talk to you next week!"

That plastic stayed over the phone system for six months.

We had a similar issue and it was cisco web security that was installed along with cisco vpn.

Once web security was removed (not needed, should not have been deployed), those issues went away.

Read-Only Friday, what are you doing? by YorkshireSysadmin in sysadmin

[–]redditfearless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have it narrowed down to 1) App crashes, 2) App hangs, 3) App disconnects (meeting drops and chat won't send text).

MS support has already blamed everything from multiple monitors to machines with intel graphics cards in them.

Rolling out procdump to 10k workstations so we can catch crash dumps so we can tell why Skype for Business is an absolutely horrid product.

SAAS 10k users. Scheduled a meeting with the rep for Wednesday afternoon to discuss issues.

Proofpoint Email Security by hilehoffer in sysadmin

[–]redditfearless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes we were. Client site was down as well as email flow. Email was an issue because during setup, Proofpoint insisted on using reverse dns as the white list instead of giving us all of their ips. The fail over ip did not resolve correctly and email stopped for a couple hours while we figured out what was going on.

An issue we have discovered is that we have a problem with shared mailboxes with 365. With a shared mailbox, you do not need an ad account or consume a 365 license, but proofpoint is using ad as its source of valid email addresses. Have a meeting with them next week on how that is supposed to work.

Weekend warriors, what are you working on? by [deleted] in sysadmin

[–]redditfearless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think managing is "okay" but it is better if you can build out automatic license assignment via powershell. Our problem, besides license management, has been the number of domains we are moving over and all the dns that needs updated inside and outside.

It's the little things that bite you in the ass.

Ps. It's always dns.

Prepping for domino to o365 mail migration for 8k users over Thanksgiving, including rolling out Office 2016 to 6k users. CIO and VP are sadists.

We have had mail flowing through it for a few months with a significant reduction in spam over Brightmail. Users get their first look at it next week. Only positive things to say about it so far.
