G Suite - Data Export - Does it work for you?
TwistedHelixis replied to TwistedHelixis's topic in Cloud Services
Just checked and I do not get that message. -
Hyper-V migrate 2008 R2 to 2019?
TwistedHelixis replied to supportman's topic in Windows Server 2019
Or for anyone without Veeam, Windows Backup also rocks when used on host with VM's. I have migrated a good few servers using this. -
G Suite - Data Export - Does it work for you?
TwistedHelixis replied to TwistedHelixis's topic in Cloud Services
Thanks for trying :0) At least I know it's more of a general issue -
I have just taken over a small primary school and they have this error on the remote server. FMS is fine on all standard clients. I know it's a long time ago but did you fix this issue, and do you remember how. Cheers

Have any Schools moved their file storage to G Suite entirely?
TwistedHelixis replied to fiza's topic in Cloud Services
Turned out a lot easier than I was expecting, considering our DNS etc is all controlled by our LA, so had to request some changes with them before I could continue. -
I thought I would try doing a G Suite data export (right side of G Suite admin page). When the data export page opens there is nothing to click to run the export, I just get a couple of boxes with the following Can someone just check and see if they get an option to actually run the export Cheers

Edugeek sending my details on??!

Can you ask them using a freedom of information request??? -
Also just read this Why not just block it from accessing corporate data?
-
OK so I found this on setting up the End Point verification system Endpoint verification devices—Approving or blocking a device doesn’t change the device’s ability to access corporate data. Instead, it adds a tag to the device that can be used to configure access levels with Access Context Manager https://cloud.google.com/access-context-manager/docs/ That's about as far as I have got at the moment as I have some projects on

Oh in my case I think that account is setup as the recovery account. Busy now but will do some testing later
-
This is not working for me either. No matter what option I choose when creating the email, the email I receive at my teats account only gives me the option to login using a google account, it never sends me the sms txt or even offers me that option, even if it was selected as the option when creating the email.

Windows Server 2016 stuck at restarting
TwistedHelixis replied to Ertech's topic in Windows Server 2016
Because its ****. If I had known I would have stuck with 2012r2 and then jumped to 2019 -
Windows Server 2016 stuck at restarting
TwistedHelixis replied to Ertech's topic in Windows Server 2016
Server 2016 is a nighmare for updates. I would not start worrying for a good few hours, yes it takes that bloody long -
All my primary schools are using G suite without Chromebooks. Not really sure if we are missing much (apart Play Store) as everything works so well from Windows.

Have any Schools moved their file storage to G Suite entirely?
TwistedHelixis replied to fiza's topic in Cloud Services
On a much small scales but I look after a federation of primary schools and they all share G Suite docs, calendar, etc. Originally they were all separate G Suite domains but I moved them all in to one system, making them all sub domains. The teachers all share docs across the federation and it all seems to be working fine for them. -
I was just about to say that :-P
-
I think they are bringing out more granular permissions. For us we redesigned our entire folder structure, so where we had something like Staff Drive > Reports, in Team Drives this was now a top level Reports drive.
-
Done this at multiple primary schools without issues. Always a few that don't like the change but see the light after a few weeks.

install Google backup and sync, imidiatly disable the sync section, then point the backup bit at your staff drive folder. Then when its uploaded to G Suite you can drag n drop the staff drive to a Team Drive :0) -

We use spanning backup but will be taking a look at cubebackup. Spanning backup backs up all emails, docs, team drives, calendars, sites to another cloud based host, it is a full feature reliable backup system, you can even export a google doc as a word doc if needed, but it is not cheap. Cubebackup is more of a manual backup, you can backup to onsite system or cloud and is very cheap -

TwistedHelixis replied to fiza's topic in Cloud Services
At all my schools I setup both G Suite & Office 365, I then let some key staff use both. So far 100% have requested G Suite but these are all primary schools. Most of the schools I know that are using Office 365 were never given an option by the LA -
Have any Schools moved their file storage to G Suite entirely?
TwistedHelixis replied to fiza's topic in Cloud Services
I moved all my primary schools over to G Suite between 1 and 5 years ago. I started with a folder with photos & videos, just something to get them used to it, but eventually moved everything from the file server except the pupils folders over to Team Drives. We took the opportunity to create a few extra Team Drives out of the one big Staff drive. File Stream was a god send -
Does not need to be cheap or free but I don't want to get pre built setup, when I am sure it must be possible to build this myself. I have two end goals. 1. I would like to be able to power a fridge for a short while in the event of a zombie apocalypse :0). I would like the option to be able to power either a 240v fridge or a 12v camping fridge. 2. To see if I can and to learn how it would be done.
