This is off the back of a few other posts about I.P. addresses, DNS, DHCP and so on due to the increased need for reporting (Dfe, KCSIE), but I thought I'd start a new one for this specific issue...

I've just noticed one of the servers is failing a few scheduled tasks and I couldn't find any reason for it, no Event Viewer entries, no history, it wasn't even really failing, it ..read more

Title kind of says it all, but I have just moved my file shares onto a VM and now I want to remove the 'File Server' role from the original server. Unfortunately it appears Server Manager won't let me remove the role as it says there are still shares on the server. I've stopped sharing all ..read more

Finally got the guts to pull the trigger on moving the 350GB+ staff shares to a VM!!! I also changed the server from BIOS/MBR to GPT/UEFI (yes it's that old), deleted some old drives/shares and doing all the other half-term jobs, so it's been a busy week so far...
