Immediate first thought is spanning tree, are both the old and new trying to be the root? And thoughts around the l3 routing will follow next if the old netgear is getting smashed. Logs on both cores is where I'd be looking.

I guess their thinking is that by having it as a computer policy you are targeting ALL users on those computers so if you wanted a different policy for ALL users on different PCs you would duplicate the policy for those. By doing it in the user policy by default it will be those users on ALL computers unless action is taken to exclude it.

I theorise its so they could apply it differently to servers, or computers, etc without relying on loopback processing.

Whilst it is a computer policy (i.e. applied to computers) are the SRP settings under Computer Config or User Config? (if they're under User Config the method above should work, if they're under Computer Config I suspect that could indeed be your problem)

On the GPO itself look at the delegation tab and then click advanced the nscroll down to your domain/ent admins and tick deny on the apply group policy.

Hello, I'd remove the zone called "info" and make a new zone called whateveryour.sharepoint.site.info is (i.e. a zone for the very specific record of your Sharepoint site) This will mean info is treated as normal but your very specific url zone will work as you wish

If the server ran out of disk space it is likely your file was only partially saved so looks corrupted. Hopefully your IT folks can restore from backups, and put checks in place to keep tabs on the disk space. Glad you were able to recover your state and sanity!

Fslogix rocks

The old vSphere windows client is gone I’m afraid...

There's an ongoing (very painful) issue with Server 2016 displaying similar start menu not opening behaviour. If you're only seeing it for one user (lucky), try a profile reset to see if that fixes it. There is a lot of noise online about things to try, profile reset, sfc /scannow, re-reg apps, in place upgrades, etc all escalating in order of straw clutching. We have a case open with MS where we have provided them with a virtual machine image with the problem (for all users, local or domain, etc) and are waiting patiently for their next idea. I hope the profile reset works for you.

Maybe this is relevant? - https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/virtual_pc_guy/2015/09/18/fixing-a-storage-space-that-does-not-attach-on-reboot/

We've been using FSLogix with customers for a couple of years now and its a very good acquisition for MS to have made.

Cheap POE/IP Camera for about 50-60 quid, free app on a PC/VM talking to the camera (such as Milestone Protect, or Contacam if you want really easy) and can access it via a browser. I have 5-6 around the house/garden works a treat.

MS RemoteApp could do this for you. Depending upon your View licensing you might be able to publish it through there, but if you're on standard you can't so you'd need to do it the windows way.

Yay

Ps4, the TiVo app performance sucks

Hello, With a single host you don't to use update manager as it will want to shut down the VM update manager is running on along with the vCenter. It is simpler to leverage your single host system to a quick advantage: - vSphere client to HOST not vCenter - Snapshot vCenter - Update vCenter - confirm it can still manage your host etc showing the new version (on vCenter) - Shut down all VMs - Boot from ISO on host and run upgrade through - Connect directly to HOST again after upgrade complete - Power up VMs + vCenter - Connect to vSphere client - Confirm all OK - Remove snapshot on vCenter VM Eat mince pies

I would not recommend using update manager if you have a single host with vCenter+UM on it - update manager will become angry and confused when the host doesn't "come back" quickly enough (because waiting for host+vc to boot etc)

Update vcenter first to make sure you are compatible with the updated host (ie vcenter should be the same or higher than ethe esxi it is managing) Then on a single host yeah boot the iso is simplest, or you can apply an offline bundle. Backups etc. Check the server supports the version you plan to install on the VMware hcl. Sorry for brevity, on a mobile device.

What version of vCenter + ESXi are you running? If you are on 5.5 - see this KB - https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2132789 (tl;dr HW version 10 can support Server 2016 use Server 2012 from the list) If you are on 5.x - see this KB also as general support has ended for these versions - https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/51491

Unless you changed the default it will be [email protected] It might be your password has expired. Can you log into VAMI at https://ip:5480 with root / the root password? Try SSH'ing in and confirming "df -h" doesn't show that the disks are full which was an old but painful VCSA bug.

Doh

Yeah, if you've "set" it to something and the box coming up asking you to confirm anyway this registry setting suppresses it. (we've used it where Adobe is set to open PDFs but it brings up the box for the user to click OK on Adobe which is highlighted)

Try HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\NoNewAppAlert set to 1. https://www.howtogeek.com/260420/how-to-disable-the-new-app-installed-notification-in-windows-8-and-10/

Did you run vmkping with the do not fragment option and force it to use each of your storage vmkernelports? (e.g. vmkping -I vmk1 -d -s 8972 10.10.10.10) I have a feeling you might be routing your iSCSI packets through the uplink (the working one) and when you unplug it bad things happen. I'd be very interested in hearing more about the setup and helping you get to the bottom of it
