  Facebook fan pages 101: Set Default View for Wall

  0

  Do you have a Face­book fan page for your small busi­ness? or your product?

  one of the most bizarre things that i see fan pages do (yes, even fan pages for major brands) is to set the “Default View for Wall” (see 2 in screen­shot) to “Only Post by Page”. i think that com­pletely defeats the pur­pose of face­book fan pages.

  By set­ting “Only Post by Page”, all inter­ac­tion by your fans, includ­ing valu­able feed­back.… gets cen­sored. As a fan, i’m not gonna post some­thing that doesn’t get dis­played or doesn’t get read!

  Expla­na­tion: Typ­i­cally, there are 4 options for Wall Post. using Makan­Deals as an example:

  1. Makan­Deals + Oth­ers — All Posts
  2. Just Makan­Deals — Post by Admins only
  3. Just Oth­ers — Post by Fans
  4. Spam — Post marked as Spam (man­u­ally or auto­mat­i­cally by facebook)

  Option 2: Makes your face­book fan page, a 1-way com­mu­ni­ca­tion channel.

  So if you are admin for any fan pages, do an analy­sis of what you want to do with your face­book fan page.

   

  Steps to fea­ture “All Posts” on your Face­book Fan Page

  1. Make sure, you are the admin for your fan page
  2. Click on Set­tings (see 1 in screenshot)
  3. Make sure “Default View for Wall” is set to “All Posts”
  4. Get ready to clean up some spam!

  Archive post: Homebrew ESXi + Openfiler iSCSI

  0

   

  finally got our home (office) brewed stor­age (open­filer iscsi) into the dat­a­cen­tre, to max­imise the dell r805 server.

  Decent specs: HP DL380G3

  • 2 x 3.2ghz xeon
  • 12 gb ram (yes, i know, overkill)
  • 6 x scsi 73gb (1 x ESXi instal­la­tion, 5 x raid 5)

  Dell R805 server, nice specs for ESXi server, but the local stor­age is limited.

  • 2 x sas (put them in raid 1, and it’s 136gb max)

  with open­filer hooked into it ( 2 x cat6 cross cable), the addi­tional 256gb makes it much more flex­i­ble. (8 cpu cores, 8gb ram (upgrad­able to 32gb))

  obser­va­tions:

  we had a guest win2k3 std server (run­ning mssql 2k), it was report­ing high cpu usage, peri­od­i­cally.
  once the shared stor­age went in, the cpu % has been more nor­mal.
  it is likely due to low hard­disk (for esxi swap) and over­all mem­ory used. (more mem­ory needed = more swaps = more cpu usage)

  Archive post: Cheap and quiet solution for a test/local network ESXi Server

  0

  was read­ing the article:  “Cheap and quiet solu­tion for a home-based ESX Server” [url]

  gonna give my props to HP work­sta­tion xw4000; we have got­ten 3 units.

  • 4GB ram
  • intel core 2 duo (6300 @ 1.8ghz)
  • 4 x sata drives
  • 1 x Broad­com NetX­treme BCM5755 Giga­bit (onboard)
  • dual head nvidia quadro
  • Win XP Pro

  ESXi 3.5 U2/ Open­filer v2.3 installs out of the box.  for a low cheap price of < S$600.

  and it runs so quiet.…

  We have ESXi run­ning on one of the machines, another one is run­ning XP Pro (with VM Work­sta­tion, run­ning a vir­tu­alised copy of Domain con­troller (win2k server). 3rd machine is a standby machine for a client’s project (part of support/ maintenance)

  and com­ing soon, an exter­nal esxi + open­filer machine, to look up to the ESXi server as shared storage.
