Or: How iSCSI Schooled Me Again I’ve never really liked iSCSI. It’s always felt like the network equivalent of a floppy disk – just with more ways for things to break. And today, I was reminded why. From one of my Linux machines (Debian 12, of course), I needed to connect to an iSCSI LUN […]
After quite a long time, I recently had to set up an SMS gateway on a virtual server for a customer again. Historically, I used Siemens/Cinterion MC35i modems for this purpose, but aside from their bulky size, I disliked the fact that they required external power. Over time, I transitioned to using Huawei E3131 USB […]
A friend asked me to help him fix the non-working WiFi on his Minix Neo Z83-4 2.0 running LibreELEC. After connecting via SSH, I discovered that neither the lsusb nor lspci commands detected the WiFi card. So, I checked the output of the dmesg command and found the following messages: [ 9.943902] brcmfmac: brcmf_fw_alloc_request: using […]

After a clean installation of VMware ESXi 7.0, I saw an NVMe disk (Intel DC P4600 4TB) in the system, but the datastore could not be added. I solved the problem quickly as follows: 1. List unresolved snapshots or replica volumes. # esxcli storage vmfs snapshot list 621cdcb9-053ddbab-e0a7-ac162d6f2e80 Volume Name: NVME-Intel VMFS UUID: 621cdcb9-053ddbab-e0a7-ac162d6f2e80 Can […]
I just fixed this problem by removing a space from the end of the PSK.
1. Enable SSH 2. Sign as root user 3. Run SQLite3 sqlite3 /volume1/\@ActiveBackup/config.db 4. Determine inventory_id: sqlite> SELECT inventory_id, host_name, host_addr FROM inventory_table; 1|172.26.1.3|172.26.1.3 5. Update IP address and host name (on row with correct inventory_id): sqlite> update inventory_table set host_name = „172.26.1.3“, host_addr = „172.26.1.3“ WHERE inventory_id = ‚1‘; 6. Terminate SQLite3 program: sqlite> […]
