      Remember why I gave up on XenServer now. Having issues getting to work on VLAN15

      What is the VLAN issue?

        Can't run the host(management interface) on it 🙂 moved to the default LAN now working. VM's will be on VLAN15 😄

          why not? At worst you should be able to have the Switch it's plugged into put it on untagged VLAN15 for you.

            Think I know where I went wrong. For now i'll leave it play with XenServer and XenOrchestra.

                Because we're so good that even when others make horrible decisions, we pull them out of it.

                  Sounds like an "askhole".

                    How are they to know your advice is sound versus anyone elses?

                      Because I am always right. Just ask me!

                        because I can point them to documentation describing what they want to accomplish and how it needs to be done.
                        8-)

                        On the brighter side, he wasn't being an askhole... He was genuinely curious about stuff, so I gave the reasons that were listed in the Docs.

                            Again a bit worried about the "IT Pro" status people think they have.

                              @hobbit666 My "challenge" yesterday:

                              0_1463738262908_38-percent.png

                              I think it was ~38% of IT pro's getting the answer

                                @thwr not seen that one yet, but tbh I've never touched Linux so would have been a guess...and I'd probably have guessed where tbh...

                                Weird that there are two questions the same..
                                Worrying that there are still people getting them both wrong (I assume - yes, I know in theory they 25% could have answered that one first and got the other right, and that 30% had answered the other first and got the first one right...but that means 55% didnt know it to start with....)

                                  @NattNatt Thats probably because users are able to submit questions, there are nearly 1,000 as of today. Submitted six of them myself.

                                  As for the range of topics within the questions: IT is very broad as of today - no more "Are you an IBM MVS or HP3000/9000 guy?" - just thought that the above "which" command is pretty basic knowledge, even for non-kernel hackers.

                                      No quality control. There isn't any oversight group checking that the things are sensible, accurate, etc.

                                        It is, very basic. Linux is the most popular OS and which is a non-admin command, even a Linux power user would know it. And it is not specific to Linux. AIX, Solaris, the BSD family, Mac OSX and others all use it, too. And I think that it is even available for Windows. So it is common on nearly all OSes and the vast majority of those deployed today. If we allow any questions that are specific to any OS, this seems the most reasonable.

                                          @scottalanmiller TBH, the mods are doing a good job over there. Took a few weeks for this questions to become active while others I've submitted later became active after just a few hours:

                                          0_1463739917376_0-percent.png

                                          Tagged it as a hard question, that's not exactly common knowledge. Taken 9 times as of today, but there's no mentioning about the number of times it was answered correctly.

                                            Maybe they have some system to not show stats until it hits a certain threshold?
