    ESX host sizing

    doddsworthy replied to ijk's topic in Hardware

    Personally, Like what was mentioned before I would configure both ESX Hosts for High Availability. I'm pretty sure you get the functionality of vMotion with vSphere Essentials. vMotion is pretty awesome and has been a life saver for me in the past. For Disks in your array I would try and go for the 15k SAS Disks if you have the budget for them. I have used VEEAM before and i quite like this product. You can setup your servers to replicate on a differential. this will replicate any changes to your DR Cluster. I have had to use this in anger before and I think it worked quite well.

    Hi Guys, Was wondering if anyone knew how to reduce the size of the WINSXS folder for Server 2008 R2 SP1. I have tried running the >dism /online /Cleanup-Image /SPSuperseed command and this didn't work. Any advice would be awesome.

    Hi Thanks for that, I would install this manually but i have to do this for 750 PC's which would be a nightmare. I just wondered if there was a way to script the installation. Thanks Ryan

    Hi Guys, I'm trying to automate the process of installing a new driver to my PCs. I've copied the files to a temp directory on the local C: on the PC. When I use psEXEC to run the installation it fails. When I looked at why it does this its because a window pops up saying " Windows cant verify the publisher of this software" it then gives you two options "Don't Install" or "Install anyway" Does anyone know of a way that I can get around this so the driver will install? Thanks Ryan

    Hi I have seen this issue before. have you got a roll up of UPD105, 108, 118 and then 124. I believe Windows 7 SP1 fixes this issue. I also tried flushing the Local DNS of the Machine and this also seemed to work. I'm quite interested in if this works for you. could you let me know? Thanks Ryan

    I have seen a similar issue to this before but this was with adobe programs. I had to make the My Settings Folder in the users home directory available offline. Hope this helps Ryan.

    Hi All, I have a user provisioning issue. I need to see if the new Year 7s have been created in AD. however i'm not sure on what OU or containers they will have been placed into. does anyone have a script that i can run that will return a list of users that were created on a certain date? hope this makes sense. Ryan

    Thanks for that "somabc" i will have a look at this Steve, it will be running from the server. i know the names of the users home folder. just not sure of the naming of the folders and files within them
  11. doddsworthy
    yeah so would like it to delete all folders, subfolders and files but as i mentioned above not sure of the naming of these so it just need work on the assumtion that the names arent known. and obviously it must not delete the Users Home Directory just the folders, sub folders and files Hope that makes any sense, Ry

  13. doddsworthy

  14. doddsworthy
    Thanks for that will try this. will this run as a normal .vbs because i will have to go through Change Advisory Board to get that 3rd party software approved. Cheers Ryan

    Hi Guys, i need to automate the deletion of folders and files within 90 Home Directories. as the file and folder names can be anything this script has to work on the assumption that files and folder names are not known. Cheers Ryan
