  1. I'm thinking of switching my job and all the recruitment ads that are local to me asks for at least an associate level certification. As my current job is hardly scratching the surface of Devops stuff I'm guessing I will have to do a couple certs.
  2. Hi, I am currently working as a Platforms engineer for a software company. I have been working in this position for about an year now managing the company AWS cloud. From my interests and experiences, I feel the best path for me would be to go forward to become a DevOps engineer. Therefore, I'm thinking of getting a few certifications done. First one I have been thinking of doing is the AWS CCP. However, I have heard from a few places that this can be skipped to an associate level certification. Soo here I am wondering if I can straight away go do the AWS Certified SysOps Administrator - Associate exam. I am not seeing the AWS CCP certification as a prerequisite in the website for this SysOps exam either. So is this true, can the CCP can be skipped? Also would like to hear other certifications that could support my path. Thanks for your input. P.S: I am also thinking of studying for the Azure AZ900 exam after I complete one of the above AWS exams as I would like to get some exposure on Azure as well.
  3. As per the title, I'm looking for a software that can be scheduled to analyze a network path (an AWS FSX path to be exact) and generate a detailed report on the folder sizes to have it emailed at a daily basis. I'm aware software such as Treesize has this feature but the export options are only available on the paid versions. It would be very helpful if you could suggest a free software or monitoring tool that could be automated to at least periodically to export a report to disk as HTML/PDF. Thanks
  4. I believe this isnt released yet and its way off budget according to expected prices.
  5. Hi, I'm looking forward to buy a used phone by the end of this month and locally I can goto one of the following: Samsung Galaxy A73 5G Honor X9 5G Google Pixel 6a Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G Samsung Galaxy Note10+ 5G Samsung Galaxy Note20 Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro+ Samsung Galaxy S20+ I will not be gaming on my phone. It will be mostly used for day today activities such as using a couple of social media apps, checking Emails etc.. however I would like to have the best possible photo and video quality from the Primary camera to take some shots when I go out with friends. Would appreciate your support in choosing the best device for my use case from the above list. Thanks.
  6. Hi, I have a friend who is on a Mac. I would like to play Rocket league with him by streaming to him from my PC using Parsec. I have a copy of Rocket league installed in my PC and I also own a controller. To play 2 player split-screen in this game it requires that you connect 2 controllers. It doesn't allow this with a single controller and a keyboard. Is there any way we can play using virtual controllers perhaps? I have never configured one and don't know what to look for and also this is the first time I'm trying out Parsec. Your suggestion are greatly appreciated. Thanks
  7. Hi, I am trying to ping between my host windows PC and guest windows VM. At the moment I have my network set upto bridging mode where it is bridged to my laptops inbuilt WiFi adapter. So far I am able to ping the home router, reach the internet and also ping another PC connected to my home router after disabling its firewall. I have disabled the firewalls in both the VM and the host and they still cannot seem to be able to ping each other. The host can also ping the router, ping the other PC in the network and access the internet. My router IP: 192.168.1.1 IP of the VM: 192.168.1.131 IP of the host: 192.168.1.5 IP of the other PC on the network: 192.168.1.4 Can anyone please suggest how I could achieve this. Thanks.
  8. Hi, so I would like to record my motorcycle rides and was looking at action cameras. Unfortunately the ones here in my country cost quite alot even second hand. So I was wondering if an older flagship phone could do the job with a helmet chin mount or chest mount. Had a look around the local market and noticed the Sony XZ3 is within budget and reviews say its got a pretty decent camera. I would like to know if this would work out and be able to capture smooth riding footage. If it can record in 1080P in good quality without going out of focus while riding, I'd be a happy man. Some insight would be helpful. Thanks.
  9. I see. After some searching I managed to find a solution. I had to install a third party software to disable Windows defender and stop the service until I delete the mpcache files manually. Got it done this way.
  10. Hi, in one of our computers the C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Scans folder consists of a bunch of mpcache files that add upto around 10gb. I would like to delete them as it is consuming too much space. Tried deleting them manually but I get the error saying Windows Defender Service is using this file and it cannot be deleted. I noticed that even if I turn off Windows Defender from settings, it doesn't allow the files to be deleted. Also noticed that the Defender service cannot be stopped in the services Window as the options are greyed out. Some insight to get this done would be really helpful. Thanks.
  11. In this phone the only app restrictions for data can be seen in the data saver screen only. The app info of any app in this phone doesnt seem to have any mobile data related settings. Chrome is just one example of an app that doesn't work with mobile data. Basically in this phone only Facebook lite works on mobile data. All other apps like Instagram, twitter, Gmail, etc would not work. It will start to work if I enable a VPN for some reason.
  12. So I own an LG Q51 (android version is 9) which I bought recently and I am having this issue where I am unable to go online in some applications with mobile data. For example I can go online and connect to my Facebook account using the Facebook lite app but I am unable to go online and browse the web on google chrome with the same mobile data connection. So far I have unchecked any data saver option in my phone, tried resetting the network settings, removed any data restrictions, tried resetting APNs, changed private DNS from automatic to Cloud flare and google DNS, restarted the phone after every change. None of this fixed the issue. I also noticed that if I turn on mobile hotspot from this phone and connect to it from my PC, I am able to browse the web without any issues. Another important thing I noticed is that, apps like google chrome on the phone would work on mobile data if I used a VPN like ThunderVPN found on the play store. I am puzzled on what is going on with this phone. Some help to fixing the issue would be very helpful. Thanks.
  13. I have doubts if its hardware because its happening in 2 laptops.
  14. We have got 2 Lenovo L560 laptops with the following issue where the Ethernet adapter fails to start once the drivers are installed. We tried uninstall and reinstall several times using windows driver update in device manager, restarting the laptop, enable and disable driver, did windows updates, used software like driverpack and driver easy and still had no luck in getting the adapters up and running in either of the laptops. Some help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
  15. Hello, our workplace has a server with Server 2019 Datacenter and we are in need of limiting RAM usage for a couple of services of an application that's running on it. When we did some research, we came across some old posts of people suggesting Windows System Resource Manager. Some further digging on this we came across this in the Microsoft website : Windows System Resource Manager (WSRM) is deprecated beginning with Windows Server® 2012. and also noticed that its not available for install in Server manager. I did some look around & did not see any successor program to Windows System Resource Manager. Is there anything else built in to Windows server that I can get my task done?
