depends on if your backplane and raid controller support sata, but they generally don't give a gently caress for non-oem drives
They for sure do, as the current drives loaded are SATA's. What I'll probably do is buy a set and see if the controller will let me use them. If so I'll buy the rest.

can any windows server CJs help me with a weird thing

we're running KMS on 2008 R2, and clients are failing to activate, stating "no KMS service could be contacted"

i got a pcap from an affected client that shows two-way communication between the client and the server, so it doesn't seem to be a network issue

enabling the three WMI firewall rules necessary for communication between subnets didn't do anything, and the clients can ping the KMS server, telnet to 1688 and everything but activate

have also tried sysprepping and rearming an affected client VM to no avail

thoughts? i'm out of ideas

every client we've tried can't activate, but KMS has a current count of 10 so some clients at some point were able to reach KMS

I admit to not having my experience with KMS, but is it possible you haven't reached the 25-count limit yet?

From https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793434.aspx "None of these computers is activated, because computers running Windows 7 must receive an activation count ≥25 to be activated. "

I have a HP DL380P gen8 with 16 2.5" bays, half full of 1TB SATA OEM drives (656108's). I'd like to fill the rest with 2TB drives but the only ones that HPE sells are SAS ones at $450 each. Has anyone here tried buying off the shelf 2TB drives and chinese clone drive sleds? I don't need SAS speeds at 4X the price. I did this once on an old StorageWorks x1600 with LFF drives and it worked fine but this 380 is newer and I worry about the controller card refusing non-OEM drives.

Edit: something like this and maybe this?

Are you sure they aren't just being labeled as NL-SAS? Those aren't really SAS drives, just higher quality SATA so they gave them a stupid name.

cscript.exe slmgr.vbs /dlv on both the KMS host and attached clients should give you some good detail to figure out what is going on and what is or is not talking.

if you don't hit the count requirement it'll error with something else

thankfully we do have MSDN so i'll be talking to MS about this soon

you need count of 25

also what client OS are you trying to activate

Research confirms that black is a color like silver is a color, and that beyond black is clarity.

also, make sure your clients are actually using the generic kms activation keys necessary for that OS

and that the kms server has the correct kms server key in place. is this a new kms server or did it suddenly stop working?

quote:

this too. post the script results here if you can. given that there are some successful activations I'm assuming the SRV record is in place for DNS.

what location and ISP does http://whatismyip.com show
does the IP address match the public IP on your router

if the isp and the IP and the location match and it says you're in Canada then you're probably hosed and you gotta submit a fix at https://support.maxmind.com/geoip-data-correction-request and https://support.google.com/websearch/contact/ip and who the gently caress knows who else

is there a giant chart somewhere of what voltage/current a given type of charger will provide to a given USB device? I know the google guy has his review of usb-c stuff but I'm wondering about everything up from the basic 5V/500mA from standard USB 2.0

1) is it written on the charger
2) is the UL/european one also on there
3) did you get it from a reputable manufacturer

if all of those is yes then it's probably ok to go by what's on the charger. the usb-c cable thing is a problem because afaik the usb design committee thought it would be a great idea if the cable were used to determine how much power to draw instead of the endpoints, or some nonsense like that

but that makes sense, the device is only going to draw as much current as it needs but if you try blindly throwing 2a down an old cable only designed for .5a its going to melt. gotta vet that cable.

third party drives will be no problem

practically all sas devices are happy to talk to sata drives, it's part of the spec. hpe doesn't give a gently caress if you use 3rd party drives, it just won't be supported under your warranty (duh?)

one little wrinkle: hp gen8 is so loving old and crusty you may need to update the controller firmware to get 2+ TB drives to work

hp doesn't give away firmware for free anymore so idk how you will get the update without a support contract

Not sure about if you need premium or not but Spotify accounts are not tied to any account or phone. If you have a non family plan then you can only listen one at a time (if you're logged in on two devices one will dominate choice but both can play the music I think) unless one device is in offline mode.

Family plan let's you play up to a certain number of devices at once from the one account.

righty so I have this scenario and finding a already usable web-based solution might not be easy without a custom rolled solution idk can you dudes tell me

so I am going to be selling places on a course.. there is like 16 of these courses in a month. there is a maximum of 12 slots on each course.

so ideally the people booking the course click the month and then the course and if there are places free they book. and then pay money on CC there and then

it also has to be able to deal with nzd.. gently caress.! stripe can't (motherfuckers) so I might be stuck using something local. there is this web based one called storbie which looked fisher price a bit but clean enough and maybe I could wrangle it into my needs but it might end up being a mess
