Ring doorbells and the like might breach GDPR
bald_pig replied to Ditto's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
non-article really, of course pointing a camera at your neighbour's house/garden is a gdpr breach! -
When are you planning to move your school(s) to Windows 11?
bald_pig replied to localzuk's topic in Windows 11
I'll start before Win10 is EOL, but will wait for 11 to have matured, even though it's basically 10 with a reskin. -
My beer arrived this morning, but I'm now working until 6, so having pies ready at 5:40 will be a challenge!

Only LG are making 48" currently, so you can get a 48" monitor, but they aren't cheap! https://www.overclockers.co.uk/gigabyte-aorus-48-fo48u-3840x2160-4k-120hz-1ms-freesync-hdr-hdmi-2.1-kvm-oled-gaming-monitor-mo-00p-gi.html?__cf_chl_jschl_tk__=pmd_1_xJloLSnLKG8A2hyGbmKJkEO8wSUw7gVmpaNf8Jixs-1634121786-0-gqNtZGzNAqWjcnBszQl9

Volume Shadow Copies - Used Space Isues & Confiusion
bald_pig replied to CHiLL's topic in Windows Server 2019
They are probably chunks of system files. Looking at the numbers you previously posted, your chunk store size matches up with what I'd expect it to be. if you have 1.9Tb of savings with 50% deduplication, you'd expect around a 1.9tb chunk store. -
Volume Shadow Copies - Used Space Isues & Confiusion
bald_pig replied to CHiLL's topic in Windows Server 2019
Deduplication will split files into chunks, it doesn't just work on the file as a whole. Also, saying something is like compression, isn't saying it is compression. From https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/storage/data-deduplication/understand#how-does-dedup-work (an interesting read into the processes behind the system) -

So does treesize, which they're already using. -
Volume Shadow Copies - Used Space Isues & Confiusion
bald_pig replied to CHiLL's topic in Windows Server 2019
Dedupe is not a part of VSS. dedupe is short for deduplication, and is essentially a compression method. It is very common to use on storage servers, but if you have a lot of files that are already compressed, like videos and photos, then you can end up using more space. Treesize doesn't understand dedupe, which is why you get bad readings. The size on disk will give you how much space is used on the disk, whereas using the regular size and temporarily excluding the dedup will give you the actual data size. Just seen your edit, yes, you would need an extra 1.92tb on that drive to store everything without deduplication. -

It sounds like you have file deduplication enabled? -

[Scam email] Pressure group pretending to be NHS Vaccination team

Thanks, blocked! *EDIT* Fortigate has already classed it as phishing. -
I have 2 27" 1440p monitors at work, and a 27" 1440p monitor and a 24" 1080p monitor at home. The extra screen real estate is a godsend!

Our core switches are Aruba and they've been rock solid.

At a previous school that used SIMS, we was looking at writing a script to disable access to SIMS until the update had completed, because several staff members would try to open SIMS mid update and break their install. Unfortunately I left before the thing was written.

If you launch the windows installer again, is it picking up the partitions and/or the windows install?

Quick Assist blanks screen when asking for Admin Credentials...
bald_pig replied to Koldov's topic in Windows 10
Yeah, you need to run quick assist as admin in order to get UAC prompts. In this situation I'd be using the runas command to bypass the UAC prompt. -
Registered, hopefully the beer turns up this time!
