Brocade

A Director requires 3 IP Addresses, which are configured:

ipAddrSet -chassis

Microsoft

PowerShell Core 6.0 is a new edition of PowerShell that is cross-platform (Windows, macOS, and Linux), open-source, and built for heterogeneous environments and the hybrid cloud.

Remove a hotfix from an unbootable Windows 10 OS:
1. In the Windows 10 boot menu, go to Repair
2. Go to Tools > Options to get a command prompt
3. Confirm the drive letter for the Windows image (usually it is D:\)
4. Run
dism /Image:D:\ /Get-Packages
to view the installed packages along with their date of install and note the name of the rogue package.
5. Run the following command with the wanted package name -
dism.exe /image:d:\ /remove-package packagename:Package_for_KB4014329~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~10.0.1.0
- and then just reboot the system normally!


NetApp




“OCUM 7.3 is a LTS (Long Term Service) release. It will enjoy the same support period that ONTAP 9.3 will have. This is the first release of Unified Manager to have LTS designation, all past releases will fall out of full support within 12 months.”
