Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Have used and bought labs online before..I am VCP 5.1 certified. But looking for something for home, Microserver 8 only has 16GB RAM, looking at NUC and Shuttle anyway good 32GB RAM (smallish) servers out there?

    Cheers,

    CF

    What are you planning on doing with the box?

    You would be surprised how little memory and cpu each esxi server instance with some VM's would use. I had 6 VM's running on esxi 5.5 in 8GB memory on a low power 4 core processor (since upgraded to 16GB to improve performance). My little machine now has 5 ssd's and 5 hard disks in it :P

    One thing I would suggest you get is a cheap UPS, if your box is busy and there is a brownout/power cut your server may be severely tiggered.
