<0> I'm leaving for Korea tomorrow, please have my info transfered to a spare laptop.
<0> "Info".
<0> Info this, fag.
<1> can i ask you if mac is good?
<2> mac is great.
<2> especially with cheese.
<2> any more questions?
<3> Macgyver ****s
<4> FK|Work`: right right.. i'm just being a geek and wondering what additional configuration is required by the administrator of GSX in order to make an OS available to the network.
<4> can it bridge a connected network to the emulated OS? Does it provide virtual ethernet deviceS?
<3> oh yeah
<3> same as Workstation
<3> you can do bridged, private host lan, or NAT
<4> and do you have you set up proxy arps on the host OS in order for your netework to see the whole thin
<4> gor does the whole bridge process/protocol take care of that
<1> Chuck Norris tears cure cancer. But he is so bad***, he has never cried. Ever.
<3> I think they just do straight bridging
<4> ahh i see!
<3> but don't quote me
<2> it does bridging and seperate virtual NICs if you want
<2> if i remember correctly. it's pretty flexible in that department.
<2> of course, your network will have to support that tom foolery.
<0> :(
<0> Tom's hard anus.
<3> but when you look at the network, I believe it's the VM itself responding to arp queries
<3> nto the host
<2> yes it installs all sorts of vmware nics in the base os
<2> to handle the bridging and what not ... it's a solid product. highly recommended.
<3> the only thing it ****s at is disk i/o
<3> which is mitigated with ESX
<2> i *think* you could even dedicate specific drives to GSX if you want.
<3> GSX is a little better than workstation in that respect, but only because it's usually put on a better box :D
<3> yeah, GSX can use raw drives
<2> well, couldn't you have a SATA disk off a channel
<2> of course the host OS sees each disk but don't have tehe host OS use them except to mount them
<2> and then dedicate a GSX image to each drive?
<2> oh wait, raw drives.
<2> nevermind!
<5> well if you're going to use GSX, your best configuration is still to have two servers sharing a FC array for storage of the VM's
<3> BBS yeah
<5> so if, god forbid, your server dies, you can just start them all up on the other machine
<2> BBS, you haven't left yet. You aren't leaving are you? :(
<5> but my point is simply that most FC array are designed for kick*** performance
<2> FC array == $$$$
<3> right now we're doing manual failover. If a VMWare host fails, we restore the backed up virtual machine from tape to another GSX server
<2> surely #windows doesn't bling like that!
<5> yeah, you should talk mr. $100k/year in router appropriations :)
<2> 100k/year?
<5> or is that per month? :)
<2> hahaha, that doesn't even cover one box.
<3> we're starting to build out our SAN tho
<3> so we'll see
<5> heh
<2> YOU MR BBS
<2> depart now.
<5> and yeah, I'm getting redy to go
<5> I have to find a notary though, need to sign something and drop it in a fedex box
<2> check cashing palce
<2> oh
<2> MAT
<2> T
<2> he's a notary
<2> (or should be)
<5> tell him to bring his stamp
<5> othewise, I'm goign to go find one :)
<2> lemme call him
<3> Our 3 year old Compaq Proliant only has 3GB in it and it can take up to 16GB
<2> err, this is his vonage home number
<3> we're gonna max out that bitch and put Linux and GSX on it
<5> doesn't matter, I'll go find one
<2> it might not kick over to his cell
<5> I'm sure there's something on broadway
<2> check cashing place should have one
<2> western union
<2> etc
<6> oh christ. my new PC at work doesn't have a floppy drive, and I need to create an 'anaconda kickstart' disk ;-/
<7> hi
<8> hi
<9> peerce sounds like our end users
<9> they bitch about the lack of floppies too
<6> this is the first time this has come up
<3> sartan: GSX and ESX also have scripting engines too. Fortunately, we're not a 24/7 operation, so we can take down our virtualmachines, back 'em to tape, and restart em automatically
<3> so **** Symantec Livestate Recovery :D
<3> we just restore our VM files
<6> I guess I could build a custom CentOS 3.6 CD image with the .ks file aready embedded on it ;-/
<5> I'd rather use livestate to backup to disk. faster restores
<3> Livestate also backs up live without taking it down :D
<3> which is good
<10> anyone know anything about webcams, i want to buy one
<3> We don't need it though where I'm at tho
<5> so gsx supports shadow?
<3> you mean like Volume Shadow Copy?
<3> good question
<3> I don't see why NOT, but
<5> it has to if livestate's going to copy the running disk file
<5> well the file is going to be opened and locked at all times the VM is running
<5> the application has to know that it's cacheing disk writes or it'd crash
<3> I don't know those answers. That's why I'm fortunate enough not to be a 24/7 operation and I can just script the VMs to shut down
<5> yeah
<3> at an appropriate time for backup
<5> I have a GSX license as a reselelr
<5> haven't played with it yet though
<3> I bet at some point I won't have that luxury anymore
<5> they won't license me for ESX though unless at least 2 of us go through a few grand worth of training
<3> we'll be 24/7 one day :D
<3> BBS **** that :D
<5> yeah, no ****
<3> these ****ing vendors need to clue in that we know more than them
<5> but esx doesn't support 3ware cards, so I don't care
<3> OH ****
<5> my clients are small, we wouldn't be doing $10k scsi arrays
<3> ESX doesn't suppport 3ware ?
<5> nope
<3> 3ware is like the only good RAID card for Linux :D
<5> for ide/sata, yeah
<3> yeah
<3> all kinds of good scsi raid cards
<5> it's really more focussed towards the larger enterprise, so it makes sense that they wouldn't bother I guess
<5> but I'd rather not lose the overhead from the windows bloat
<11> I got my Toshiba laptop and when I close the lid it goes on stand-by, but i want it to do "nothing"...in the power management I set it to "do nothing", and it still wont work, i checked in the BIOS and theyr wasnt an option, whats the soluition thanks?
<5> likwid8 - check to see if there's a toshiba specific control panel that manages that
<5> anyway, I need to leave
<12> diable hibernateion in power settings
<5> ttyl
<12> *disable
<4> FK|Work`: you wouldn't have to take them down if you set then up in a cluster-like environment with vips.. *nerdy*
<0> Plow your nose into her anus.
<13> whose anus?
<0> santr0n's mom.
<0> Smells like teenspirit.
<0> Teenjuice.
<13> smells like middleage spirit. :-(
<0> Chunky pre-teen pre-cum juice.
<14> hi
<14> meh!
<15> chunky eh?
<0> Aqua Teen Hungry Hippo Anus.
<0> Chunky c0w.
<0> Oh hi UB.
<14> brb gotta throw a ****ty vb mortgage calculator together
<14> stupid cl***
<14> damnit i forgot how to do input restrictions
<0> Poor c0w.
<0> Tipped over way too many times.
<14> yar
<16> has anyone taken the "cert hacker" course by ec-council? opinions?
<13> why does that sound like something shady?
<14> because it is
<16> ?
