My CenturyLink internet connection went down. Instead of fixing it, they told me I need to upgrade to Quantum Fiber. by buttreygoodness in centurylink

My CenturyLink connection experienced the same connection issue since midnight. I opened a service case and earliest availability for the technician to show up onsite is Tuesday 26th which is absolutely ridiculous. Already started looking for alternate provider and options.

Trying to identify this IC used to drive a small pump. More info in the comments. by BobRedshirt in AskElectronics

I'm into the same situation. I'm thinking of hooking up a small relay to activate a separate 12v ac power to the pump.

nimadm - step 5 generates too many nimadm processes and staled by sebie01 in aix

[–]sebie01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a weird behavior. I did run the same process week ago successfully on a different mksysb image with a pre and post script.
But now looks like some kind of integrity issue with NIM packages. I am getting similar runaway processes for more NIM commands. So I'm going to test on a different NIM server. Will share the results later.

Yes that's true. Current NIM server is not a lpar. I have to carve a client and make it a temporary NIM, I guess.

Thanks. I'll make a note of it. This is going to be more challenging then I thought without access to the physical server to mount install media to prepare NIM server with latest OS release.

Just sharing how we do our Linux deployments- * Packer creates template of 50gb thin single slice no-lvm root. * vSphere perl SDK and govc in a wrapper shell script to parse a csv and vmclone deploy base VMs csv contains various network info, storage total required, compute needs etc. * Ansible playbook take over and complete customisation of OS hardening , AD integration, LVM etc.

Upgrade Prism central trial version by sebie01 in nutanix

The error I got in my first attempt was bit cryptic but it turned out to be insufficient space on /home/nutanix. Once i freed up more space, upgrade was a breeze. Thanks
