  • If there was a way I could leverage the unlimited bandwidth/storage as an offsite backup, that would be amazing, but I’m not sure it would be a great idea backing up stuff to a webserver where there best security I can add it via an .htaccess file.

    Your off-site backup solution shouldn’t have to care about that level of security because you should be encrypting your backups before they leave your network. Even if you have a solid backup host in the cloud, you still want to encrypt your backup data before you send it to their hosted repo.

    Unless your vendor has a reason to read your backups, they shouldn’t be able to.









  • You’re welcome, and good luck to you!

    Depending on the power of your device (which I cba to look up), you may be able to spin it up locally on the device for a dr test. I was lucky enough to have a company that forced the versions that could run a few VMs side by side, so that made it possible to do that sort of thing easily, and remotely!



  • Hyper-v will not survive when it is dragging customers away from the Azure cash cow

    Pretty sure that’s why they made Azure Stack HCI, it’s hyper-v, but doesn’t work without an up to date azure subscription and charges you monthly fees to run vms on hardware you own.

    It’s great, the worst of both worlds… Fucking thing doesn’t even report on disk provisioned, only utilization, so get fucked it you want to capacity plan without writing your own report script.
