Added DFSR to Domain controller, non domain admins can not create shares
My situation is I deployed a couple of domain controllers at some locations. My boss didn't want to spend money on servers, so I reused some servers we were not using. I installed them as domain controllers and added DFSR replication to them. Everything is working fine, I am having no problems at all, it has been worki...
Ok. So after more research I figured out that I should have made these read only domain controllers. I’m just going to demote them and then add them back as rodc.

How to best visualize data when outliers lead to lack of contrasting colors for the rest of the plot?
I have plotted the following map of Philippines according to the population in its regions, using [CODE] in Python 3: As can be seen, there's one province (in red) that is an outlier. When looking at the data, it is clear: [CODE] This is making the plot "unattractive" - there would have been a lot more contrasting colo...
I would recommend two simple but effective methods: Outliers like that are usually easy to discover by calculating the mean and std of the values and possibly you could set your interval of colors between: $[\mu-\sigma,\mu+\sigma]$ . This would 'clip' the outliers toward a generic maximum. Binning - Instead of giving a...

RAID 6 array rebuild with hotspare
I have an 11-disk (D0 - D10) RAID6 array with a hotspare (D11) - a 12 disk array total. Disk D3 failed earlier today and the hotspare is now being rebuilt (presumably, turning itself into a datacopy of D3). I want to replace the dead D3 with a working disk. The controller is running LSI MegaRAID Storage Manager (v13.04...
I strongly suggest to first let the controller rebuild the array, then remove the broken disk. After that, when replacing D3 with a working disk, the array should reconstruct D3, restoring D11 to its original hotspare role. Anyway, please consult your controller manual to be sure what to expect.

No it is not pure, because it has side effect. Concretely it is calling [CODE] on each item. Also, it is not threadsafe. The major property of pure functions is that it can be called any number of times and it never does anything else than return same value. Which is not your case. Also, being pure means you don't use ...

There is a solution to this, but you may not be able to employ it. The solution is to use the binary logs, which contain serial events that updated data.

Improve system performance with all my extra RAM?
I have a massive amount of RAM on my home server (32 Gig). Is there something I can do to make my Linux system extremely fast with it, such as put the root FS in a RAM disk at boot somehow?
You are confusing disk space and RAM. This is totally different, both exist for different purposes. To answer your question: If you mount the root fs in a ram disk the write operations won't be reflected so that's a bit pointless. If you use your system intensively enough, Linux will naturally fill up the system cache ...

Replication is a risk mitigation strategy, amongst other purposes. If you understand those risks, and the consequences should they eventuate, and that's all acceptable in your context then by all means run multiple replicas on the same hardware.

Using the 32-bit version of svn on a 64-bit Windows means svn can only allocate 2GB of memory. Get a 64-bit build of subversion. I no longer remember the algorithm for svn's stream load, but it may think you have 8GB available and terminates when it itself cannot manage more than 2GB.

calling scalar function to assign value to local variable
In a SQL Server stored procedure, if we declare a local variable and assign the value by calling a scalar function [CODE] . Would it have any impact on overall performance of SP as in general using scalar function directly into script has performance downgrade most of the times? Thanks!
Two big problems with using functions in a query are that cardinalities are not accurate and that the function code is called once per row. When setting a variable neither of these are a concern. So I would think, generally speaking, there would be no measurable performance impact.

Check that you have a fully qualified name (dev-kranichs.domain.something) for 127.0.0.1 in your /etc/hosts. You should have a line looking similar to [CODE] could be enough.

Suitability of column store formats like Parquet for table data
I'm new to the data analytics world, but perhaps my question could help others, we all start somewhere.

The CSV to Parquet step is a ver...
Your question raises issues of both low-level storage format and high-level retention policy. tl;dr: Yes, keep using parquet. storage format Parquet offers several attractive features: binary compressed columnar You are currently taking advantage of the first two, and you should keep doing so.

Async function iterated calls

Why not just use one call [CODE] , which either returns the current session if it's already set, or creates a new session and returns that.

I recently was trying to reproduce a scenario where app which does email sending through Exchange gets throttl...
There is no concept of "local" connections within Exchange 2010 and higher. Due to the architecture of Exchange the hub transport role is separate from the other roles and all email is subject to any restrictions applied at that level. After making a throttling change, did you restart the MS Exchange Transport service?

theoretically, if device-mapper-multipath detected the same LUN over an iSCSI link it would add it to the available paths, and then it's up to you to make sure you set the failover and IO directions to the right priorities.

Simple circular dependency between three classes
I have this basic design with a circular dependency. Is there any solution for this? The problem is that a [CODE] cannot be created if a [CODE] for that [CODE] has been submitted.
Design From a design point of view, circular dependencies are usual business: A [CODE] works with [CODE] to build or test [CODE] . There is an ambiguity since [CODE] is not defined in the UML notation. It suggests a multiplicity of either [CODE] or [CODE] . Conversely, every [CODE] is build/tested based on a single [CO...

mysql_upgrade failing at Event Scheduler after replacing mySQL 5.7 with MariaDB 10.0
I replaced mySQL 5.7 with MariaDB 10.0 on my Ubuntu 16.04 server. I backed up the databases before installation using mysqldump. During the MariaDB install it said a "flag file" present meant the DBs weren't binary compatible, so I restored the backup post-install. MariaDB doesn't like my privilege tables, so I tried t...
I was unable to resolve this. I did get to where I wanted to be, though: I started the server with [CODE] , backed up each database I wanted to keep, then removed the data folder and ran [CODE] to create a fresh copy of the system tables. I set permissions up again, and then re-imported the databases. All OK now.

First of all we need to clarify what you mean by no improvement. The key thing to remember with performance optimisations is to measure. If your pages were only taking milliseconds to load before then they are probably taking 1 or 2 milliseconds less now. Just because it isn't noticeable to the human eye doesn't mean i...

Based on what you provided issues with disk seem likely. I recommend running SMART tests such as smartctl -t short /dev/sda and seeing the result.

Since Pod is running on single node it can use resources from this node only. And CPU/MEM can't be shared here. At least without special software for distributed computation.

The problem is that your buffers which have low created_date are selectively depleted in things which match your WHERE clause.

Keeping all of the elements in the dropdown feels like the right approach.

You certainly need to add at least one other variable representing the time of year, because from your graph it's clear that the fare can't be predicted accurately using only the time until departure: for the same day you can have many points representing different fares.
