I'm trying to get the OVA in vCenter up and running. I get to the point that I verify the key and then do the login/appliance registration status. All appliance services are up to date. I'm using the same account that I generated the key with and I am getting an error that I do not have permissions and it states the App Name is Microsoft Azure PowerShell. Has anyone seen this, how do I grant myself and what permissions need to be granted in order to get the login to be successful and move on to the next step? With vCenter being as ubiquitous as it is, this shouldn't be a huge issue. Any advice? https://preview.redd.it/rywyfit1ykgh1.png?width=1298&format=png&auto=webp&s=332ff60f9f190b11389bf6e52d23ef24e1116490 submitted by /u/tk42967 [link] [comments]

Hello, I'm looking for someone that can transfer me an idle Netcup ARM (VPS ARM G11) with the size of VPS 1000 ARM G11 or VPS 2000 ARM G11. I would prefer the location to be in the USA but can accept in Europe too. This will go for a good cause in order to restore an Invidious instance I'm hosting for free for the public. Netcup ARM servers have good performance for this kind of workload. Thank you in advance. unixfox

Hello! I did scour to find some current offers but it seems like most of them are out of stock/gone. Im unfortunately in the position, where this has occured twice now, just this month. So im in need of a replacement thats a tat more reliable. I am just looking for VPS with HDD storage with around 1 or 2 TB, 1 core, 1gb ram is more than enough. All thats planned to be running on there is garage. I did consider Dedirocks offering although some of terms are a bit offputting (the cpu usage one in particular, given that i intend to use compression. Also the "Only use https protocol when necessary" is an odd thing) Also considered Deluxhosts offering, but im still looking to get 2 Servers in total (for geo distributed) so i can retire one of my current, still active, nodes. The price per year should absolutely be less than a HDD of that size, as i can just buy the hdd and shove it alongside a server at someones place.

We currently have two licensed managed file transfer servers used for FTP/SFTP transfers with external parties. During a license review, I discovered that both servers are still running software from around 2015 . The licenses themselves are perpetual, so the servers will continue to operate, but their upgrade protection has expired. Renewing both would cost roughly €2,000 including VAT and give us access to current versions and updates. Whether technical support is included is still being confirmed. Management’s response is essentially: “If it still works, why renew it?” Meanwhile, spending around €30,000 on renovating the office was apparently worth it. They also rented an extremely expensive Microsoft AI solution because they wanted to join the AI hype. Almost nothing was done with it, and eventually it was simply switched off. But spending €2,000 to keep potentially internet-facing file-transfer infrastructure current is suddenly considered an unnecessary expense. We are a logistics company, and these servers may be involved in operational file exchanges with customers, agents and other systems. I am currently gathering logs and documenting the exact dependencies, but management already seems willing to accept the risk to save €2k. I understand that IT costs need justification and that blindly renewing unused software is bad practice. But this is not some optional desktop application. It is externally accessible server software running a version that is approximately eleven years old. If it contains a vulnerability, becomes incompatible or suddenly fails, the resulting downtime, investigation and emergency migration will almost certainly cost more than the renewal. Apparently visible office projects and AI buzzwords are considered worthwhile investments, while maintaining the boring infrastructure the company actually depends on is treated as wasted money. I genuinely do not find this acceptable. Am I overreacting, or is management taking an absurd risk over a relatively small amount of money? submitted by /u/timtim2000 [link] [comments]

Deepseek v4 Pro

by Akustic646

Anyone have any idea when (or even if) deepseek v4 pro will come to bedrock? The model lag in bedrock (regardless of who is causing the lag) is really bothersome. We prefer to keep all our API billing flowing through AWS and wrapped into our AWS bill but the really slow cadence of model release, aside from anthropic's, is brutal. Best to just ditch bedrock for 3rd party models and move to a provider that has faster support? submitted by /u/Akustic646 [link] [comments]

Thankfully this is not a KVM escape so nodes won't have to reboot as fast, but the guests sure should. The bug, CVE-2026-64560, is a UAF in the POSIX timer subsystem, and allows rather simple privilege escalation. See detailed description in commit 920f893f735e92ba3a1cd9256899a186b161928d . Unfortunately, there's not even a fix in Debian yet (besides Sid), but see their security tracker for updates.

I have a Google Cloud project (`788197426562`) for which access to the Business Profile API ("Basic API Access", requested via`support.google.com/business/contact/api_default`) has already been approved. As a result, calls to `mybusinessbusinessinformation.googleapis.com` (location hours) and`mybusinessaccountmanagement.googleapis.com` (list of accounts/locations) work perfectly with a valid OAuth2 token (scope `business.manage`). To fetch customer reviews, I'm calling the legacy v4 API: GET https://mybusiness.googleapis.com/v4/accounts/{accountId}/locations/{locationId}/reviews This call consistently returns: { "error": { "code": 403, "status": "PERMISSION_DENIED", "details": [{ "reason": "SERVICE_DISABLED", "message": "Google My Business API has not been used in project 788197426562 before or it is disabled." }] } } What I've tried : 1. Clicking the activation link provided in the error message (`console.developers.google.com/apis/api/mybusiness.googleapis.com/overview`) → the page fails to load ("Failed to load"). 2. Enabling the service directly via the gcloud CLI (in Cloud Shell, authenticated as the project owner): gcloud services enable mybusiness.googleapis.com --project=788197426562 → denied: ERROR: (gcloud.services.enable) PERMISSION_DENIED: Permission denied to enable service [mybusiness.googleapis.com] reason: AUTH_PERMISSION_DENIED domain: serviceusage.googleapis.com 3. Re-submitting an access request through the official form (`support.google.com/business/contact/api_default`, "Application for Basic API Access") → automatically rejected: > You can only add one project per business to the allow list. Project number > 788197426562 is already on the allow list. That last message suggests the "Business Profile API" access (the modern group of 8 APIs) is indeed approved for this project, but the legacy v4 API (reviews) is gated by a separate allow list that this approval doesn't cover — and the form has no way to submit a targeted request for that specific piece. Question : Is there a way (endpoint, form, or support channel) to request access specifically to `mybusiness.googleapis.com` v4 (the `accounts.locations.reviews` endpoint) when the project is already approved for the rest of the Business Profile API? The generic form treats any new submission as a duplicate and auto-rejects it without ever routing the actual request.

Great talk about how Antithesis uses Nix in production by John Murray. Thought some of you would enjoy. https://youtu.be/WaPOtisNu1k I've been interested in Nix for a while but have not yet taken the plunge. Do any of you use it work? What has your experience been with it? submitted by /u/isaacvando [link] [comments]

Happy SysAdmin Day to all the gurus who are apparently expected to fix a fridge with one look and make the printer work through sheer force of will (because you're technical, obviously). We do hope nobody made you look at their fridge today. You know the type of request: the relative who assumes you can recover photos from a phone that went through the wash; the neighbor whose wi-fi "was working yesterday" and somehow that's your problem now; the colleague who brings you their personal laptop because IT and "knows about computers" are the same thing in their head. So on the one day of the year that's actually about you, what's the most ridiculous, weirdly sweet, or absolutely baffling thing you've been asked to fix just because you're The Tech Person? And has your mere presence ever fixed something you never actually touched? We'll be in the comments. Happy Sysadmin Day! submitted by /u/Sysracks123 [link] [comments]

Business currently runs a pair of NAS drives that are aged and in need of replacement. Both are 8TB available storage. Currently here is what they do. -one is simply an image of the other drive as backup -we back up certain files on local pcs weekly to the NAS. This is strictly file recovery for items that difficult to replace. No full image backups. Simply not necessary for us -long term storage of business wide files and information that need to be accessed by multiple users at any given time. -the origianal and really primary function is the manufactures we work with upload technical documentation and updates so they can be more quickly accessed than downloading them on an as needed basis from their servers…the slow down being the bandwidth they allow to be used to access these files they are not obscenely large and are accessed a handful of times a day. These are accessed My MSP is suggesting the same setup that we have now…effectively just replacing the appliances. Outside of the setup they really aren’t paid to manage the devices, we do that on house for the most part. All that being said I want to look at cloud options- and I’ve asked the MSP for options but I want other feedback. given what I do backup/filestorage. Any suggestions of who I would use and what a setup might look like. submitted by /u/the_legend_of_me [link] [comments]

I had requested that AWS give me access to Opus 4.8, and since 5 came out two weeks ago, I have not gotten a single reply from them. I signed up for the $30/month support plan, and a support person talked to me and said he'd send it on. That was a week ago. It is a new account if that matters. Is this normal behavior? Is there anything I can do to elevate the request? Thanks for your help. submitted by /u/cincyricky [link] [comments]

Hi everyone, I'm looking for advice from people who have been in this field longer than I have. I'm an Arts graduate who got into DevOps about 3.3 years ago. I've switched 3 companies and recently joined my 4th company, a large GCC. Along the way I've worked with AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD, automation, and earned AWS & CKA certifications. The problem is that I'm no longer sure what I should be aiming for. My current role has an exhausting work culture, the learning isn't what I expected, and it has made me rethink my long-term direction. I don't want to keep switching jobs without a clear goal. If you were in my position today, what would you optimize for over the next 3–5 years? Become a top-tier Platform Engineer/SRE? Move towards AI/LLM engineering? Solutions Architect Security? Target remote international jobs? Prepare to move abroad? I'd really appreciate hearing from engineers with 8–15+ years of experience. If you were starting over with my experience today, what roadmap would you follow and why? submitted by /u/Which_Operation_6152 [link] [comments]

I can work with both macOS and Windows, but this time I've decided on a Windows laptop. I'm looking for a laptop with a design and build quality similar to a MacBook. It doesn't have to be a unibody, but an aluminum case would be nice. And it should have a sleek design like a MacBook. Can you recommend anything? submitted by /u/Sad_Mastodon_1815 [link] [comments]
