      NTG HQ is going up and down like crazy today.

      Hmm maybe telling someone in that location before 1:30 am when I am sleeping would help solve it.

      The alerts went off every five minutes for the entire day. You should have been getting them the same as me.

      What alerts? Since you are in TX, most would thing why worry about weather in NY,.. but I know that @SonshineAcres is just ~2 miles from NTG HQ.

      The main NTG Alertra alerts. Same ones we always mean when having these conversations. Check your emails.

      Please tell me more - I don't get those emails. I don't think I ever have. I will have to look at that Distro-Group and see if I am a member of it. LIkely since I don't get them - I am not.

      It goes to "tech".

      Only three people are a member of that group:

      • @Minion-Queen
      • @art_of_shred
      • @scottalanmiller

      Ah ha, well at least MQ should have know that things were going up and down.

      Nope I sort them out. I don't pay attention to that Tech side often, not in my job description 😉

      If you ignore the alerts, you can't act surprised when you havent seen the alerts then.

        All of those alerts are monitoring... your office and the main marketing tools. They apply more to you than anyone else.

          Except my office is online with no issues. That server might be having issue but my office isn't.

            The first batch of (my first) Ubiquiti gear arrived today: three EdgeSwitches ES-48-500W. I couldn't wait to get my dirty fingers on them and fired one up just for "science purposes". You know 😉

            Solid case, super-intuitive UI, and... I just like 'em. You get a lot of bang for the buck. Half an hour later I've replaced one of my old Cisco's. Will replace two more tomorrow and even plan to order more of them.

            Next step: UNMS.

            PS: I'm still busy with a lot of things. But we're doing fine for the most part. Kind of.

            Good to see you again 🙂

            Thanks Brendan. I'll try to increase my personal spam level during the next few weeks a bit.

              On the train off to hospital for an EEG test thingy

              Hopefully nothing serious?

              Investigating small episodes of strange behaviour with memory loss.

              Hopefully just down to stress and lack of sleep.

              Uhm. A very close relative had something similar due to stress. Not funny at all. Get well soon.

                Dang. Looks like I have to RMA one of the switches. Exactly same issue:

                https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeSwitch/Edgeswitch-port-leds-lit-with-nothing-connected/td-p/1142902

                Yep, confirmed broken. Will RMA the switch tomorrow.

                @JaredBusch : Had a little fight while replacing my core Cisco switch with the new UBNT ES. Will install UNMS until the end of the week.

                            I was told to go away and what not,... but been tracking a trend with one of the DB servers,.. The F: drive is currently 61GB of the 68GB drive. Just three files are taking up 99.8% of the drive.

                            Trying to recover space so it can run better.

                                    Yea,.. we know. It requires a new server build. But I have gotten the DB(s) down sized in the past, just not seemingly working today.

                                      he clearly didn't know that Hyper-V was/is it's own thing. Sounds like he doesn't know what a hypervisor is (only half way through the post).

                                          It's an OLD - dying box. There is no adding more storage. There is only (best practice) replace.

                                            I was told to go away and what not,... but been tracking a trend with one of the DB servers,.. The F: drive is currently 61GB of the 68GB drive. Just three files are taking up 99.8% of the drive.

                                            Trying to recover space so it can run better.

                                            I don't follow.

                                            specify - it's a DB server - .... for a client,... the 68GB F: drive is currently just three files (.ldf) are using 61GB of that disk.

                                            They need a bigger space for that DB!

                                            Yea,.. we know. It requires a new server build. But I have gotten the DB(s) down sized in the past, just not seemingly working today.

                                            why do they need a new server build? just put more storage in the server and expand. 😛 Yeah I know it's more complex than that, but ya know where I'm going.

                                            It's an OLD - dying box. There is no adding more storage. There is only (best practice) replace.

                                            They do not want to replace anything just bandaid it all the time. But they pay their bills and pay way too much to keep having us bandaid.
