RE: What Are You Doing Right Now
@travisdh1 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
Accepted a job offer this morning, so I'm back to work tomorrow.
Slight raise to base pay, but I'll also get 5% of my billable hours. So if I keep my billable hours up, a big raise.
Only downside is that it's on-site in downtown Cleveland.
Congrats! Hope it goes well.

Starting to juggle job offers. This is before my severance ends, so things are looking up.
That can be a challenge. If they are close enough in details it could come down to the expected environment, and future challenges.
Best of luck.

Waiting on movers to transport a rack of servers to a different site. More fun than you can imagine.
Oh,.. that’s why Star Trek: Discovery started buffering on Plex… well,.. dang

Are you the interviewer or the interviewee?
Interviewee in these cases.
May you find something rewarding and challenging.

RE: Random Thread - Anything Goes
Just schedule time off,… use it or lose it…. I have to use eleven days before 5/31,… and I will still carry over time.
Mostly four day weeks for two months. Guess I need an excuse not to do things at home now.

RE: ReadyNAS314: likely failing
Interesting -
Back up will continue.. But am able to access the whole of the system tonight. I've not done anything except ignore it as I've been quite tired.
I'll take it. I wanted to move to a nextCloud instance running on Proxmox anyway.. but - data recovery is a good thing.

I do have a “backup” but, looks like it’s a month or so old.
This is where you screwed up...

RE: ReadyNAS314: likely failing
It’s been a while since I did a file transfer via CLI, but it’s a starting point.
I did think about sourcing a donor system to swap drives into. But possible killing the array.
I do have a “backup” but, looks like it’s a month or so old. Likely the last one the system was successful with.
The sad part is that connecting any USB drive ‘halts’ the system but it recovers when removed. That would be one path to back up files…

ReadyNAS314: likely failing
This is to document for myself and should anyone else need.
Unable to access my storage shares the last bit, rebooting does not resolve. Rebooting takes upwards of four hours to complete.
While had been able to access, now cannot. GUI does respond, but none of the user accounts seem to work. Am able to sign in local as root.
While no errors were on the status page when I was able to access, suspect the system is reaching end of life. End of product life happened some time ago.
Am able to interact with SYSLINUX from the unit directly, it has HDMI and USB ports.
However I ‘lose’ response when I plug in any USB drive.Am able to ssh, so the system isn’t totaled just yet. I can view the shares, and can ping.
While not ready to build a Nextcloud instance on the Proxmox system yet, I am thinking I should be able to recover the data.
Next step:
Create share
Mount share to NAS
Cli copy data from NAS to another computer as backup -
RE: Print Management: Export
@DustinB3403 said in Print Management: Export:
@gjacobse If you open PM, select "Print Servers" > Expand the server > Select "Ports" and then select Export you'll get the port details (ip, WSD etc) into a txt file.
I see now- interesting.
Under the print server you have:
*Drivers
*Forms
*Ports
*PrintersThat should be exactly what I needed.

Thank you - not in the office and really don't feel connecting to the VPN tonight. But that is likely what I was looking for, but missing.

Print Management: Export
I can do this with Powershell, no problem. So Powershell is not the solution.
On this print server I do not have permissions. But I can see printers via Print Management.
Export doesn’t include the IP, the critical item I need for this research.
Can you make PM do this- not seeing any options to select fields.

RE: Zebra Direct thermal printer: Parts
Annnd- the printer is already working... not that THAT is any issues...

RE: Zebra Direct thermal printer: Parts
The ZD621 are about $525 a piece.... As for 3d Printing one,.. sure,.. if I had a STL file to work from,.. and no - I have not looked as of yet. Likely not to find one.
The one parts kit I found is about $40,.. but they are out of stock, the other one I found gave me feelings of TEMU - so - no.

Zebra Direct thermal printer: Parts
Most likely won’t use a Zebra printer, but with shipping thousands of boxes a day, we have a small fleet of them.
Media holder broke and Zebra wants $300 for a plastic part that is rather small.
Any thoughts on a USAC source for parts? This is all I need:

RE: Suggestions for an IPTV player for Ubuntu
@CCWTech
Silly question but,…..
20,000 iptv channels? How do you find anything?
At 10sec a channel that 35min to cycle through them,… ( if my math is anywhere to being close, which it doesn’t seem to be,… I don’t math )
