      Just gutted the beast... and it's Dell cousin. Parts all over the place. Still wondering if this could be a rPi3 case... well.. really several rPi case... Ah well.. Off to the recycle pile I suppose.

        Headache today 😞

        Sorry to hear that,.. had noticed you seemed quiet today.

        Yeah, in a dark room drinking coffee. Need to be functional by the Scale Legion event tonight.

        Could go the other direction and hit it with alcohol.

          Could go both ways at the same time, drink coffee with alcohol mixed in!

                    Just thinking on how the documentation here at Mangolassi.it is better than XenServer's official documentation, and heading to lunch.

                    There is Xen here at my new job. It looks simple. I havent spent much time in it and already feel comfortable.

                    What are they using to manage it?

                    XenCenter

                    Get XenOrchestra. Free and So much better.

                    They say this and dont like it, they want all the features. https://xen-orchestra.com/#!/pricing

                    That's XOA pricing, the appliance, we are talking about XO. All the features of the appliance, 100% free.

                    I didnt tell them to pull up the site. They did while I was standing there telling them it was free.
                    I believe they just finished a SAM audit and had to buy a crap load of stuff. They are now MSDN and Partner licensed.
                    Since I am new to Xen I am clueless on the difference.

                      It's not a Xen thing, it's just a standard open source thing. XO is software, it is licensed in such a way that they never need to look at the pricing. That's the miracle of open source licensing, it's standard industry knowledge and stops them from ever needing to do what they did. If they read the site carefully, they would notice a free download that is unrelated to what they looked at (yes it says for personal use but never says not for commercial use and the license is for commercial so they are obviously clear and the owner states this as well) and that what they were looking at what an appliance based on XO, not XO itself. So they weren't even looking at the pricing for what we were suggesting.

                        And even though it is free, they denied it? There is a download link and licensing that says that it is free.

                          XO is open source.... no licensing involved. Support contract if you want to pay for it, but no licensing. Audit's don't come into play.

                                Could there be any better reason to move to open source and protect yourself from an audit 100% then? They are being emotional and reacting backwards to the problem. Instead of learning from the audit and fixing things, they are having a fight or flight reaction and not learning from the audit at all.

                                  It does, but it also has an open source license to ensure that there can be no confusion in the end.

                                      Exactly...as mentioned in another post...I have an option of using a Moto G4 or an iPhone 7+ 256GB until the Pixel arrives...why am I so scared to try the iPhone, beyond not having a case for it... 🙂

                                          Just thinking on how the documentation here at Mangolassi.it is better than XenServer's official documentation, and heading to lunch.

                                          There is Xen here at my new job. It looks simple. I havent spent much time in it and already feel comfortable.

                                          What are they using to manage it?

                                          XenCenter

                                          Get XenOrchestra. Free and So much better.

                                          They say this and dont like it, they want all the features. https://xen-orchestra.com/#!/pricing

                                          That's XOA pricing, the appliance, we are talking about XO. All the features of the appliance, 100% free.

                                          I didnt tell them to pull up the site. They did while I was standing there telling them it was free.
                                          I believe they just finished a SAM audit and had to buy a crap load of stuff. They are now MSDN and Partner licensed.
                                          Since I am new to Xen I am clueless on the difference.

                                          XO is open source.... no licensing involved. Support contract if you want to pay for it, but no licensing. Audit's don't come into play.

                                          I am aware that it doesn't involve possible audits.
                                          I was referring to the Microsoft SAM audit, not Xen Audit. They are just generally cautious right now.

                                            They're reacting emotionally instead of logically, means things are being done that aren't good business decisions.
