Seems there are more people interested in this: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5962465/... https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/1ve63cg/azure_vm_... Trac…

I would be interested in a severity score or something similar -- otherwise I can't judge how important it is to fix -- is this a "friday right now" problem or a monday is fine pro…

Hi, it seems azure has announced that all VMs world wide that run trusted launch need to be rebooted because of an unnamed security fix. Does anyone have details on how bad the pro…

from a company (RHEL users) POV: EntraID support -- we're using https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/devices/how... for SSH at the moment (not really happy with it but …

maybe I missed that, but why not just combine ptp and ntp within chrony, it does support that.

I would guess nextcloud

I think a very short lived cert (like 7 days) could be a problem on renewal errors/failures that don't self correct but need manual intervention. What will let's encrypt be like wi…

I'd say the primary problem of framework is security updates for bios etc

yeah, that was my suspicion as well, seems that AI generated content is mixed with seo-spam or malware. I even tried to report feedback.azure.com as a deceptive site to the major b…

I think Microsoft has a general problem with getting rid of unwanted things within their eco-system. I keep complaining that their feedback.azure.com portal is filled with spam/mal…

any of those switches in the right price range for home? I've been looking for a cheap SONiC switch for a long time but those on the supported hardware list are all rack/datacenter…

I have a Framework 13 (12th Gen). I have no complaints about the hardware quality. I love the replace everything concept. I rarely do that though, my ports are always the same - 2x…

yesterday they were also serving a update catalog index that did not match it's signature https://downloads.dell.com/catalog/CatalogIndex.gz // https://downloads.dell.com/catalog/C…

there is something similar for WD drives as well. https://github.com/not-a-feature/wd_ssd_firmware_update/ https://github.com/not-a-feature/wd_fw_update I really hope some day ther…

I have recently started playing with trusted launch to enable secure boot, it seem the Azure feature is taking memory out of the VM memory (50MB), I could not find any docs on this…

they do talk about actual usage in the talk, but only vcpu wise, not instance wise. For vcpus it's also more than 60% linux

the actual talk (video in article) says more than 60% of VM vcpus are from linux VMs, it does not talk about instances though. But I would expect Linux to be a lot of very small an…

so the "real" azure nodes are some kind of special Windows+HyperV but for example their accelerator cards are linuxes: https://cfp.all-systems-go.io/media/all-systems-go-2023/subm.…

you can use azure files nfs, that should be posix compliant, but it comes without auth or encryption ... :)

Hey, we've been seeing some unusual latency between and inside zones (within the same region) in Azure. Usually between zones rtt would be 1.1-1.5ms, for a couple of days we're see…

And that windows is backed by Linux if performance is key: https://cfp.all-systems-go.io/media/all-systems-go-2023/subm...

I also have a follow up to this topic. I would say it looks like in Azure nobody is verifying TCP checksums. A bitflip in tcp payload should have been noticed at the NIC/tcp level …

after a full day of searching for a possible cause, someone from microsoft suggested that they try to move the express route gateways (which are seemingly VMs inside of Azure) to a…

so my guess would be there are more than a few devices between the edge and the express route gateway (which is more or less a VM I was told). So I am guessing right now someone is…

yeah, that's what we did. We captured it at the last place in our network (a router) and then compared the tcp payloads to the packets that we received in azure in our firewall. Ne…
