Didn't VmWare try licensing by RAM not too terribly long ago?

I don't think they licensing by RAM so much as limit the amount of RAM you're allowed to use according to license type. The free tier was really quite limited, is it still 128GB?

That's kind of the same thing 🙂

That is also not very limited at all. Most SMB do not have that much in their servers. If they have more, they bought too much.

Same for cores. Most SMBs that have more than sixteen per server bought too much, often way too much. Especially if they are Intel cores.

The boost to copy operations for NFS is pretty nifty.

@dafyre Yeah, it was pretty intense. It really digs deep to see if you have the knowledge needed. I just did a test on my own accord and was given the following:

Apache Self Assess

101: Baseline Implementation
Installation and Global Configuration

Install the Apache HTTPD Webserver via the distro's packaging system (yum/apt) Ensure that the following modules are installed and enabled: Mod Rewrite Mod SSL Configure the server admin email address (globally) [email protected] Configure the server so that its signature is displayed on server-generated pages (such as 500 Internal Server Error), and that it also includes the server admin's email address in the signature. Enable the server status page at http://localhost/server-statusaccessible only by the host 127.0.0.1
Users, Groups, and Files Create the system group webadmin Create the system user don.draper with the following credentials: Password: IXnMe2Fp Home Directory: /home/don.draper Primary Group: don.draper Secondary Group: webadmin Create the system user peggy.olson: Password: 3Hx1M8aS Home Directory: /home/peggy.olson Primary Group: peggy.olson Secondary Group: webadmin Create the directory /var/www/vhosts, with the following ownership and permissions: User Ownership / Permissions: root / Read, Write, and Execute Group Ownership / Permissions: webadmin / Read, Write, and Execute. Other Permissions: Everyone should have Read, and Execute permissions. All future files and directories created in the /var/www/vhosts directory should automatically inherit the same group ownership of webadmin.
Virtual Hosts
Configure the web server for the following virtual hosts, and specifications.
VirtualHost 1 Server Name: site1.104.239.228.184.xip.io Document Root: /var/www/vhosts/site1/htdocs Access Log: /var/www/vhosts/site1/logs/access.log Error Log: /var/www/vhosts/site1/logs/error.log Copy the content of this virtual host from /root/files/site1 to the document root
Ensure that the proper content is returned when this site is accessed athttp://site1.104.239.228.184.xip.io, and there are no errors in the logs.
VirtualHost 2 Server Name: site2.104.239.228.184.xip.io The virtual host should also respond to the following aliases: www.site2.104.239.228.184.xip.io web.site2.104.239.228.184.xip.io Document Root: /var/www/vhosts/site2/htdocs Access Log: /var/www/vhosts/site2/logs/access.log Error Log: /var/www/vhosts/site2/logs/error.log Copy the content of this virtual host from /root/files/site2 to the document root Configure Apache with any necessary PHP modules required for the site
Ensure that the proper content is returned when this site is accessed athttp://site2.104.239.228.184.xip.io, that the aliases for www and webreturn the proper content, and there are no errors in the logs.
VirtualHost 3 Document Root: /var/www/vhosts/site3/htdocs Access Log: /var/www/vhosts/site3/logs/access.log for HTTP and/var/www/vhosts/site3/logs/ssl_access.log for HTTPS Error Log: /var/www/vhosts/site3/logs/error.log for HTTP and/var/www/vhosts/site3/logs/ssl_error.log for HTTPS Copy the content of this virtual host from /root/files/site3 to the document root Restrict access to this site with HTTP Basic Auth, with the user namewebadmin and password 4v2JaLuQ Configure the document root so that a directory listing is displayed in the browser, rather than an index page. Configure this site to respond on both HTTP, and HTTPS standard ports, however all traffic that comes through over HTTP must be redirected to the HTTPS virtual host. Any self-signed certificate will do.
Ensure that the proper content is returned when this site is accessed athttps://site3.104.239.228.184.xip.io and that the traffic is redirected when accessing http://site3.104.239.228.184.xip.io. No content should be returned without proper authentication as mentioned above, and there are no errors in the logs.

Was given 3 hours to finish, and unfortunately I did not. Looks like I have some studying to do 😛

Yeah, that sounds like the site I was on. It's cool, because you can use any tool at your disposal to help you get things done. Google is your friend, lol.

That's a standard systemctl cannot start message. And it is just telling you that you need to tail /var/log/messages to see what the error was.

You can take them as arguments when you first run the script, that is the more "UNIX" way. Or you can prompt for them as you go.

@JaredBusch They are just looking for me to automate the process. I can use any automation tool or language.

@dafyre That's exactly what I'm saying! I'm sure they're able to figure it out 😉

Switched to the local database, all of the same settings. Worked instantly. From what I can tell, this is a Zabbix flaw.

Quick question.
What config file do I edit in Centos7 to change the web interface of zabbix from using 80 to something like 8088??

Sorted...
I forgot Firewalld was running when I edited the httpd.conf file and was trying to test it.

I am referring to the following:

AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate
AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional
AWS Certified Developer - Associate
AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate
AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional

Which one of these would fit the bill better for my career?

Solutions Architect is not what you have done in the past and not where you are looking at being currently. So those are more for a change in career direction more than anything.

The Developer is not at all what you do, so that is out.

DevOps, likewise, would be a major career change. Not a bad one, but it's a very different role and would be a long term transition.

SysOps Admin would be the logical starting point as it leverages where you have been and where you have been thinking of going.

For all of them, Associate is the starting point, you would do that before considering the Professional level.

What is the default db admin?

root

@RamblingBiped Sounds like a great idea! I may do that on the side, just to have it in my arsenal of "stuff that I've done"
