Yes and it was awesome. We had the initial seed done by filling up appliances and shipping them to the provider and since then its been disk to cloud for the backups.

I'm phone posting I can give more info if you want when I get to a computer

The AWS version of this is called Snowball. You connect an appliance they send you to your network and do your initial seed there. Then ship it back and you can start uploading deltas.

Moving from tape to Glacier with an AWS Storage Gateway later this year as part of a cloud migration. It's really well designed, and costs are pretty good.

No you shouldn't. Why reinvent the wheel when there are companies larger than this who are specializing in this who are better than you at this.

Use one of them for your non-differentiated workloads and get back to doing what makes your company unique.

What about 100PB of storage capacity per 45ft shipping container delivered by Semi-Truck, says they have a "Free Tier" available to you? Their pricing is "Contact Us"

Shipping days are not included in your 'on-site' days.

Snowball 50TB for $200, 10 days to transfer your data, $15/day extra.
Snowball 80TB for $250, 10 days to transfer your data, $15/day extra.

Why would you do... any of that? That all sounds like a terrible idea. Especially the "I didn't warn them" part. But especially the physical server part. And the in-place upgrading from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2. I guess especially all of it.

Yeah, it's terrible all the way down, but it's what I was asked to do, it's an internal project - I'm waiting on ILO info right now, so wish me luck on that, but it's a long story and I got thrown in here, can't say much else.

E: I mean there's still the option that it's installing a shitton of updates or something like that

Upgrading a server rather than flattening it, using hardware that is old enough to currently have Server 2008 R2 running, running on physical hardware, no remote OOB access.

It's bad decisions all the way down!

When I was much younger and dumber and working for a copier company, I tried to get scanning working to an old copier and somehow(I know how, but it is super embarrassing) knocked their main file/print server off the network. On a Friday afternoon. The IT guy was like 3 hours away camping and was about to jump in his car and head over but he walked me through fixing it.
That was the day I understood the phrase 'knows enough to be dangerous' and also committed myself to properly knowing what I am doing.

Sadly I just settled for taking a snapshot of the instance and killing the scripts while getting the security and other related teams involved for analysis.

What worries me is that the instance has no public-facing inbound routes, so we're concerned it was an inside job.
