    Cisco router for cable internet, small network

    An ASA 5505 could fit the bill. I am considering getting one myself.

    Virtual Windows workstation run on a headless CentOS server running KVM with ...

    IPMI complains with LED error 2 then 16. Seems related to disks. I couldn't log in to IPMI anymore. I unplugged them all but the boot drive and got it working (after a cold reboot). System console still logs disk errors and I suspect the cheap SATA to USB adapter I use with the OCZ drive on the...

    I have a lot of disks plugged in right now and I'd like suggestions how to use them.

    Here I'd need help to decide if I need to format my M500 to 400GB if I want to be able to use in a write intensive production array later.

    Sorry about that. I'm tired and shouldn't be posting. I'll make it all clear tomorrow. Thanks.

    Virtual Windows workstation run on a headless CentOS server running KVM with ...

    I have all the SSDs I ordered yet. I wonder if I made a mistake formatting my S3500 to 120 GB (I didn't really decide anything and let OmniOS initialize the disk for me). I'm a little nervous the same thing could happen to my new expensive (for me) M500 480GB. Indeed, I don't know what I'll...

    This thread is very interesting http://forums.servethehome.com/hard-drives-solid-state-drives/2359-vm-storage-sas-sata-ssd.html Makes me want to get started with Hyper-V now. :rolleyes:

    OmniOS/OpenIndiana running from Thumb Drive

    Napp-it to go is your ticket. It's all set up. Just download the right image.

    Actually this seems to feature a buzzer alarm system. Could do the trick for a home system. I'd just need to power off the fan.

    Virtual Windows workstation run on a headless CentOS server running KVM with ...

    I ordered 2 40GB Intel 320 Series NOS SSDs today. I will probably reinstall OmniOS on them so I can add a mirror disk to the rpool. I would have them in a RAID 1 enclosure like gea suggests in his AIO guide (and connected to internal USB port) but I suspect I wouldn't be able to monitor RAID...

    Oracle VirtualBox with access via phpVirtualBox on OmniOS

    Not sure I'd call it a bug but I get permission error when I try to connect host cdrom from vm. Workaround is to create and share ZFS pool to upload ISO image to and then browse to it from vm drive settings.

    Virtual Windows workstation run on a headless CentOS server running KVM with ...

    Phpvirtualbox installed fine. It was a bit of a pain (couldn't connect host cdrom drive from vm and mouse tracking in console was nightmare) but I'm pretty happy with everything so far. I couldn't find a way to boot vm at startup yet but it must be somewhere.

    Simple enough thanks. IMHO it's still a little confusing you only get to decide which version you like afterwards.

    Virtual Windows workstation run on a headless CentOS server running KVM with ...

    Seems fine. I like how paid extensions aren't required for home use. I'd still like one could start with a community edition from the begining.

    Yep this made me want one too. I'm glad they're getting affordable in time for this build. Thanks.

    Napp-it installed just fine. I now need to figure out which features will be gone in 30 days.

    The plan right now is to install this : http://forums.servethehome.com/solaris-nexenta-openindiana-napp/2658-oracle-virtualbox-access-via-phpvirtualbox-omnios.html Then I'll get this build some disks and configure shared storage in napp-it. I think I'll get one M500 480GB and have it mirrored...
