You don't get a 4TB drive if you a restoring 20GB of stuff I also realize that I'd recently been pricing external ssds, which are, uh, considerably more expensive than platter drives. Things that are pissing me off - lovely thumb drives that choke on vmdk files bigger than 20gb.

Probably not the thread for it, but since we're talking about sql clusters anyway - do you have a favorite resource for a run down on setting up NDB clusters?

I'm also in the middle of a questionable security decision but at least this one came directly from the CEO (with adequate CYA trail) - the problem is I can't even figure out how the hell to make it work. A remote sales guy is leaving the company, he works on the other coast and hasn't been to the office in years. Not too long ago I got him set up with a new Mac Book air but did everything remotely. He's a nice guy, and not too terrible with technology but it's a struggle doing things like fixing broken profile migrations totally remotely. He recently helped the company find an acquisition partner, so he knew his job was likely going to end in the next few months and had plenty of time to back up whatever data he wanted. The merger is about to go through and his job has indeed been eliminated. As a parting gift the company said he could keep all his equipment, figuring that if there was any data he wanted to exfiltrate he had plenty of time to do it already. That brings me to the clusterfuck of trying to get him moved over to a personal email address. He uses Mac and really likes Outlook 2016. He wants to continue to use Office 2016 and went and bought a personal O365 account using his gmail address to register. He also wants to import the whole .olm of his work account with previous emails, but much more importantly contacts and calendar events. I'm still a pretty junior tech and we use hosted exchange, so I'm not super familiar with Exchange, and definitely not familiar with migrating between Exchange and personal mail. I've spent a week now trying to get an email address working in Outlook that will sync his imported contacts and calendar events with his phone. We've tried adding his Gmail account then importing the olm with no success. We've tried switching to the fast insider ring and getting the Outlook 2016 for Mac update that has built in Google sync, but we can only get it to sync one way, even if we jumped through all the hoops to get his contacts out of Outlook and into Google, contacts he creates or edits in Outlook for Mac won't sync with his phone. We've tried accessing Outlook.com with the gmail address he used to sign up for O365 and then adding the ugly Outlook.com address that gets associated with it to his Outlook but that won't even work. I know that trying to get Google, Apple, and Microsoft products all working together wasn't going to be super easy but god drat this is a mess. I've been lucky enough to get right into duties that are more Jr. Sysadmin that helpdesk, although I do both (our helpdesk is quiet enough that I have plenty of time for both) - This seems like something that should be super easy to solve and it's driving me loving bonkers. This is the first real issue that I've tried to work out where I feel like there just isn't a reasonable solution. I guess manually move all the contacts and calendar events to Gmail and then only use the web interface and iphone app. He's not thrilled with that decision though. I'm spending an unreasonable amount of time on this for someone who isn't even an employee any more.

Well I complained yesterday about not having enough work to keep me busy and the universe was listening. Came in this morning and barely had time to pour a cup of coffee before getting a nagios alarm about the temperature of our core switch. Opening our tiny server room was like opening a sauna with the broken AC blowing hot air in my face. Once we turned that off the move and cool I set up while my boss was on paternity leave saved the day and kept things cool enough to hobble through till a tech came out. Pissing me off: the tech who said "yeah! sure, it's fixed!" and leaving way too quickly. I didn't have a good feeling so I kept working on the plan from earlier in the day of moving some VMs so we could shut down a few hosts. Of course as I'm standing up to leave, as the last one out of there tonight, I get another nagios alert. I feel bad for having to call my boss back out, especially with an infant at home. I offered to try to take care of it for him but I think he wanted to yell at the hvac people himself. Not pissing me off: having stuff to keep me busy all day! And having a cool management team that let the intern pretty much come up with and implement a(n admittedly pretty straight forward) plan to move around VMs, shut down hosts, and mitigate things as much as possible.

I quickly excuse myself and go grab my phone from my desk charger if I get tied up troubleshooting something away from my desk for more than ten minutes. I don't want to bother the folks around my desk with any vibrating notifications that might come in. We may have a lovely open floor plan but thankfully it's usually silent, no desk phones, people are usually reasonable with their cell phones - the loudest noise is either the foosball or ping pong in the lounge.

xzzy posted:Plus it's a video conference, those things habitually eat poo poo and burn 20 minutes of people's lives for no good reason. Making any decisions off a single problem with one just means they're looking for excuses to get the headcount down. We were also recently acquired, our new company does a weekly all hands that is the most useless garbage meeting in the world. Not surprisingly after four or five weeks of it going well, we had an audio issue where they couldn't hear one of our managers introducing a new hire for about ten seconds before we realized our conference system got hardware muted somehow. I committed the grievous sin of walking in view of the camera and unmuting it. My manager now has to write up a short report after every Monday morning meeting and submit it to their CIO within 20 minutes of the meeting ending, detailing what time we got to work (it's a 9am meeting on the west coast when most our office was used to getting in around 10), what time we had the room set up, the steps we took to test everything before the meeting, our opinion of the audio and video quality, and any incidents with preliminary root cause analysis. For a weekly all hands that's 100% utter bullshit, usually detailing the intra-office team building scores in crossword competitions and poo poo. It's loving awful.

Man you folks are picky. I like IPAs, along with almost every other type of beer, ciders are great, particularly ones made from pear or apple or both or berries! I like peaty scotch, also unpeated scotch. Tequila too but it has to be an anejo, blanco, or repasado. Mezcal is good too! Gin is good as long as it isn't from a plastic bottle or can. A kale smoothie is delicious. So is tea, as long as it's black or green or oolong or white or herbal. Coffee is great ofc. Man life is too short not to enjoy almost anything I can shovel into my maw.
