  1. this is either a quad core or its dualcore with hyperthreading but it seems i have 4 cpus task manager shows cmd.exe isnt using more than 12% Ill try it in python later see if it will run faster but im guessing its nearly done. It wont open in np++ any more
  2. @Arthur thanks for the poweshell method also, but is there any way for it to add the preceding 0? Also if anyone could correct my bash method I wuoldnt mind knowing how to do it in that too please. I tried while, repeat, etc and couldnt seem to get it.
  3. is that how many there are, wow. Might take longer than I thought. They are the mobile phone numbers for this country.
  4. yeh i should really run it on one of my 16core servers rather than my little dual core laptop.. ah well ill leave it going overnight see how it gets on
  5. actually that doesnt work. It worked when i tested from 0400000000 to 0400001000 but running it on the full range it just seems to hang...
  6. Im trying to output every possible number between x and y to a text file, one on each line. They all start 04xxxxxxxx so I want 0400000000 -> 0499999999 I tried in excel and got as far as 0400350000 by dragging down but figured there must be a much faster way to do it? So I tried in Bash and came up with this: #!/bin/bash for i in `seq 0400000000 0499999999`; do echo $i done which seems to work but it misses off the first 0. Is there any way to add it in as its running, or to the resultant file after?
  7. all of them except the linux guests use dynamic ram. The problem happened exactly as described in the scenario i posted tho rather than any sudden lockup. It was after a maintenance mode reboot after live migrating all the vms from one host to the other.
  8. found this page and a fix which has saved a cold reboot Hyper-V Cluster with 2 CSVs hangs on service shutdown of Cluster Although Im not sure if a subsequent reboot will have the same problem.
  9. Yes they do I manually migrated them all first time round, and then after doing updates and restarts on host 1 i put host 2 into maintenance mode and they all migtrated automatically to host 1. However Ive now done updates on host 2 and went to restart but it seems to have hung when restarting at "shutting down cluster service service" Is it safe to cold reboot or should i leave it for a while longer?

  11. when I was at Uni I had an "Athens" login which let me search a multitude of academic journals for articles relevant to my research. I want to be able to keep up with things and would like to be able to access these again, is there an affordable subscription or something?
  12. the tech teacher seems to be pretty clued up. ill just take him the files to print. I have no idea what our printer is other than it was pretty expensive. How does it choose the colour? I m guessing it depends on what colour plastic you feed into the thing? Does it take over 2 hours to print things?
  13. so this one the best bet then? Stackable Raspberry Pi Case by sdeyerle - Thingiverse
  14. Doodling in one note, drawing in Photoshop, that's about all a tablet is advantages for IMO. But these types of input devices have been around for computers for years for those purposes. Sitting on a bus with a tablet flicking through pages of the Sydney Morning Herald, swiping through your friends flickr album, scrolling down your facebook feed, reading an ebook.. In a classroom reading a textbook, maybe highlighting some relevent text.these are all things i think a tablet is ideal for. (consuming information) Add a keyboard to a tablet when you want to input text? How does that differ from buying any one of the laptops that have a swivel screen with a touchscreen. I am happy and willing to be proved wrong, and am eagerly waiting to be. I even put Windows 8 Consumer preview onto a few of our tablets in the hope they might turn them into a more productive device. Granted the touch keyboard is 100x better, using them to create content is still no easlier.
  15. does each .stl need to be printed seperately? Ive never done any of it was just planning on getting the tech dept to do it for me RepRap Raspberry Pi Case by davidcorne - Thingiverse this one looks similar but with a bit of a logo...
  16. I concur Steve.. I'm yet to be convinced of a tablets merit over being a device to *consume* information. I still dont see them being a device for creating content of any great extent. *Edit: But I am not a teacher. I dont spend time in the classrooms so I know what goes on to that extent.

  17. there are a few... any recommendations? A lot of them are in multiple parts is this a pro or a con with regards to simplicity of printing and assembling?
  18. Got permission from one of the teachers involved in this, and these docs were sent out to all staff so I hope its OK to post them here. I will preface the comments in the findings by saying that we (IT) were given zero knowledge these tablets were arriving, had to rush out an image for them to get them up and running in time for term starting, had to keep adding software to them as and when the teachers demanded, and also had to add extra wireless capacity to the locations the teachers were using them. Having been provided with ample time to cater for this I hope the technical issues the teachers had wouldn't have happened. However their comments and findings are attached in full . The only modifications i have made are to anonymise names of school and personnel.

  19. So ive just found out we have three 3d printers at school here () So im going to print myself a raspberry pi case Has anyone got an example of a decent one i can use?
  20. thought england was in a hosepipe ban drought of the century?
  21. If i put it into maintenance mode will it live migrate automatically?
  22. My HA hyperV cluster hosts need to have windows updates done on them and to be rebooted etc. I have started to live migrate the guests from one to the others so i can then do the updates and restarts etc. However rather than do this all manually is there an easier way to do it? If i just install the updates and then hit reboot will the guests automatically live migrate? Or was my initial thought correct and I need to move them off first? Cheers
