After a long hard day I was going to watch the zombie box but this was not to be. Many years ago I worked a lot with FreeBSD and became a bit crazy (well that might have started earlier but my BSD addiction did not help). What started out as a work project to build a powerful Squid Proxy server turned into a situation where I was running FreeBSD with a desktop manager on my home computer. If you think getting new hardware to work on Linux back in the day was tough then you should have seen FreeBSD. Mind you once you got it going it was lightning fast. People swore that even Linux programs running in the emulator ran faster than on Linux. Either way it was fun and the Ports system for building applications meant that you could have your applications sculpted perfectly for your system. Then there were the FreeBSD jails! But that is another chroot story :) Fast forward to this evening and a LinkedIn message.. about Podman running on FreeBSD and.. there goes the evening!I downloaded the la
Today’s “bonus” question comes from one of Veeam’s Technical Trainers (VTT). See below: You need to protect Linux physical servers using dynamic grouping. How would you proceed?Use vSphere tags to create the backup jobs Use AD organizational units to create protection groups and create backup jobs for the protection groups Use CSV files to create protection groups and create backup jobs for the protection groups Create the protection groups manually and then run a pre job execution script to add the Linux servers
Hi Everybody! Today it is my great pleasure to bring in someone who needs no introduction: Veeam Vanguard, Veeam Legend Michael Paul Geoff: Welcome Michael, So First Question: When and why did you start working in IT? Michael Paul: I started working in IT whilst I was in college, after doing a lot of repair jobs whilst at school. I dived into the deep end and was a sole sysadmin without any prior experience, a huge amount of watching videos and studying, but it paid off and it allowed me the ability and freedom to ask “what’s this” and then go find out. I was studying software development at the time and my course mandated some skills in databases, networking, and security, so I was walking into the job knowing the OSI layer, understanding routing, basic database querying, and how programs work. This last point is a key skill I would recommend to anyone wanting to understand more about computing, try learning to write a few applications and then you get a sense for how code is likely t
Hello Community -First, let me say I apolgoize we didn’t get a recording of yesterday’s webinar. We thought we did so, but turns out we didn’t. But, at the very least, I can share an ‘outline overview’ of what we shared, as well as what the vSphere User Guide says about each topic.See below:Instant Recovery (IR)- IR can be done using VMware VMs, HyperV VMs, VCD VMs, Windows/Linux Agents, AWS EC2, Azure, Google Cloud VMs, Nutanix AHV, & OLVM/RHV VMs- *CAUTION* → When performing restore to Original Location, if original VM still exists, it will be deleted (removed) during restore; if after recovery you choose to Stop Publishing, you now lose the recovered VM, as well as the previously deleted original VM- 2 storage options for IR:NFS Datastore - uses an IRCache folder, and the Mount Server Volume with most space is used > NFS Datastore space configured must at least equal VM RAM + additional 200MB VMware Datastore - has better recovered VM I/O performance > If this is used, can

Hello All, I just saw that we have a discord channel. But unfortunately we do not use it actively. I think we can be more active on our discord channel and find quick solutions to each other. We can also actively chat on Discord sometimes. This may help us get to know each other better.
Muhahahaha @Madi.Cristil is on some well-deserved holiday and I get to put up the Blog of the Month candidates for everyone to review and vote! I’ve also broken the rule very much so as I have not one but two entries from @leduardoserrano on for candidacy this month. Let’s see if Madi ever lets me do this again!Congratulations CandidatesThis month we are offering content from several candidates! We have pieces from @leduardoserrano, @tarik.yenisey, @JMeixner, @Link State and @Nico Losschaert for consideration. Here are the posts for your review:Vote Today!Cast your vote here, before 14-May 2024!
This post is related to a real use-case at a customer.Some time ago, this customer asked me to perform a backup audit on their infrastructure because they had doubts about the current setup 🤔So of course I did, I do this often for existing and new customers…If you want to know more about it, just go on reading this topic 😁 Some info about the customer and their infrastructure : they are one of the biggest companies in Belgium in their sector they are having a large vmware cluster : 1 cluster with HA that vmware cluster is divided over 2 locations at the same site but with +/- 500 meters between and no buildings in between, so ideal in some DR scenario’s between the 2 locations they are having a 40Gbit fiber connection the current backup-setup is being done by another IT company in Belgium they are having 2 backup-servers, 1 on each location they are using on each location a physical SAN as shared storage with synchronous mirroring between the 2 SANs using hybrid storage with auto tie
