So many helpful people! I love the level of respect, at least everyone I have ran across, has for one another.

Definitely the nicest and most supportive group of players I've ever come across.

Yea It's a shitload easier when you have multiple hosts with the same hardware and SAN storage with multiple controllers, iscsi switches, etc. We have nowhere near any of that. Just a few hosts with local storage and free unlicensed esxi (God I wish I had an esxi license.. it would save me a LOT of headaches moving stuff around if I had vcenter).

Atleast this new array has a hot swap this time, yay.

How much is that?

An esxi license? Depends on the version, but either way typically not justifiable for a project like ours. (I think Essentials is around $500 and Essentials Plus over $4k. There are a lot of other things more beneficial to spend money like that on.).

It's possible someone might even have one laying around, if they work for a large corporation that has some they never used... one could hope >_>

Can't rule it out.. It's probably likely.

I love my dedicated 10gb multiple host tunnels. The only thing they wont let me get this year is real fiber channel network switches that integrates with vcenter to change my vlan assignments on the fly. I have to swap ports manually on any emergency change over as it is. ....they wanted to spend money on a phone system....who needs phones!?


But I just realized I love my job. Or I will until I get a phone call about a freaking password reset.
