What Are You Doing Right Now
-
We drive pretty much everywhere (hate dealing with flying). We have a few areas where we have no Verizon service. Dallas TX, Oklahoma in a couple areas (Indian Reservations mostly), Souther Tier of NYS, Delhi NY, Major State parks you lose service in the middle usually.

Yeah I rarely have any issues at all with Verizon until I get in the middle of Letchworth park or down in the Southern Tier area (or Delhi NY).
That should change soon. The college here is getting a huge Verizon tower on the tallest building in town (which is near the top of a mountain as it is).

If he skips the text, goes directly to the phone call he'll know right then and their that the person either does or doesn't have the request.
Except it is rude and doesn't mean that he would get through or get the details correct or have a record of it.
You are the only one saying it's rude. Now I'll accept a group consensus that it's rude if we suddenly get a flood of "it's rude" posts - but other than giving me a hard time I don't see that happening.
Phone call followed by email or email followed by phone call - I really don't care the order. I agree that the email makes the otherside more responsible for providing correct details, and that by putting the email second it's likely that the sender won't feel the need to put in all the details. But if there is even a remote chance that they think they are going to be calling anyway - they won't include those details in a precall email to begin with.

There is nearly zero service - definitely not reliable between Lincoln Ne and the state line on Interstate 80. You get stuck out there, you better hope for a good samaritan because you'll extremely unlikely to be calling/texting or emailing anyone.

That is going to be nice!

Been awhile since I have been through there.

Smoke signals. The ultimate retro technology.

Thinking I should really set-up some kind of backup for ESXi11 as it now has 11 VM's running on it. OK mainly Test machines and Linux servers but just in case lol
-
@hobbit666 What version of ESXi are you using?
-
-
@hobbit666 Yeah but essentials plus, or the free edition or what?
I guess version is a bit misleading, sorry.
-
@DustinB3403 LOL Free

@Minion-Queen said:
@DustinB3403 Email is actually more appropriate, with maybe a text to say I sent an email take a look. After 9pm unless there is an outage don't bother employees at home.
Email is,.. but it's one of those things for me at least - I have my phone set with DnD hours. After 9pm I won't hear it. Texts, Emails and most calls won't be noticed unless I pick up my phone and look.
Now if you repeat call, or if you are in my list,.. then I will. but again that is calls.. not emails or texts. heck - my phone won't even pull new mail like it suppose to.. and it's set to.
Come August - iPhone 6 or something...

So what sort of backup system do you plan to use, clearly nothing at the Hypervisor level. 11 VM's seems like a very trivial amount of VM's to migrate to Xen Server.
-
@DustinB3403 Unitrends Free - Backup to Local NAS daily then weekly to something like RDX (just in case) as I said these are mainly things like unifi controller, Zabbix, our Gold Windows image for deployment etc. so not mission critical if they disappear and I have to restore an old version.
-
Is Unitrends Free applicable to the free version of ESXi?
I didn't know that if it was.

They can never decide. We literally get a different answer every time that we ask. And often the explanation contradicts the answer. So we assume.... no.

But if it is working, then yes.
