| pedja | frinnst, does this affect you? https://www.reddit.com/r/vmware/comments/6vztsv/farewell_vcenter_server_for_windows_vmware/ | 00:16 |
|---|---|---|
| jaeger | that seemed pretty inevitable | 00:29 |
| jaeger | the VCSA is good | 00:29 |
| pedja | VCSA is Linux-based appliance? | 00:39 |
| jaeger | yes | 00:39 |
| pedja | RH, I presume :) | 00:39 |
| jaeger | sles, I believe | 00:39 |
| jaeger | most of the vmware appliances are some form of suse | 00:39 |
| jaeger | at least the ones I've used | 00:40 |
| *** onodera has quit IRC | 00:41 | |
| pedja | really? that's cool. Leap is very well put together | 00:42 |
| jaeger | I think the latest version is photon now but was SLES before | 00:43 |
| pedja | photon is Vmware's minimal OS, right? | 00:44 |
| jaeger | yeah | 00:45 |
| pedja | do you go regularly to VMworld, jaeger ? | 00:47 |
| jaeger | I've gone twice before and I'm leaving sunday to go again this year | 00:47 |
| pedja | nice. Las Vegas, the city of sin | 00:49 |
| jaeger | I've been to LV enough times now that I'll be fine when VMworld goes back to SF next year | 00:49 |
| pedja | do you prefer blackjack or poker :) ? | 00:50 |
| jaeger | LV is fun but been there quite a few times now | 00:50 |
| jaeger | I don't gamble at all | 00:50 |
| jaeger | I have notoriously shit luck | 00:51 |
| pedja | isn't that against the law in LV? | 00:51 |
| pedja | not gambling, I mean | 00:51 |
| jaeger | heh, thankfully no | 00:52 |
| pedja | I've been to Venice Casino a few times. I won fuck all :) | 00:53 |
| pedja | but it was an interesting trip | 00:54 |
| jaeger | that's good | 00:54 |

| frinnst | pedja: nah | 09:15 |
| frinnst | we are on 5.1 for our production environment. We will move off that within a few months to hyperv | 09:18 |
| pedja | Server 2016? | 09:26 |
| pedja | you mentioned when running a cluster with different CPUs, you have to disable some stuff, because of migration I guess | 09:39 |
| pedja | libvirt can calculate cpu baseline for all the nodes. how does that work in Vmware/Hyperv? automagically or? | 09:41 |
| *** onodera has quit IRC | 12:25 | |
| frinnst | with vmware you specify the generation manually - say "sandy bridge" | 12:27 |
| frinnst | hyperv is not that precise. You pretty much have to disable everything except for sse | 12:28 |
| frinnst | we will probably run a separate cluster for pfsense firewalls so we can utilize aes-ni | 12:28 |
| frinnst | did some basic tests with and without aes-ni. 70-80mbit compared to 800+ | 12:29 |
| frinnst | dont remember exactly what cpu it was other than e5-2600 v4 series | 12:30 |
| frinnst | ipsec obviously | 12:31 |
| pedja | you run virtualized pfsense? interesting. | 12:44 |
| pedja | pfsense instance per client network? | 12:46 |
| frinnst | thats the plan | 12:49 |
| pedja | nice | 12:50 |
| frinnst | currently we use a vmware solution that sucks ass | 12:50 |
| frinnst | ipv4 only | 12:50 |
| pedja | which is just...sad, being 2017. and all | 12:52 |
| frinnst | yeah the tech is from 2012 or something | 12:53 |
| frinnst | abandoned like most things from vmware | 12:53 |
| pedja | lots of goodies here https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/2.4_New_Features_and_Changes | 12:53 |
| pedja | the biggest change is dropped 386 support, and people are already whining :) | 12:59 |
| pedja | I like that they plan to eventually be 'just' a set of packages on top of vanilla FBSD | 13:01 |
| pedja | same for FreeNAS | 13:01 |
| pedja | a bit easier to maintain | 13:02 |
| pedja | I'll wait 2.4 release to spin up a VM to play with it a little, to see what all the hype is about :) | 13:04 |

| frinnst | didnt find anything really interesting about 2.4 tbh | 14:28 |
| frinnst | also the RC is expected to be the final release anyways so might just as well start playing with it | 14:28 |
| pedja | I can't run multiple VM's, so I'll probably use several Docker containers to make some traffic thru it. should be fun | 15:00 |
| pedja | I am confused on when and for what to use ELK or Grafana or Graphite or whatever | 15:10 |
| pedja | looks like Grafana is crowds favorite, since it can use quite a few data sources | 15:15 |
| pedja | but I am getting ahead of myself again. learn to crawl before you walk, or smth | 15:29 |
