The chat is really active today on this one. This deep dive on how detection works is fascinating to me.

ONAIR is on Spotify too! Episodes are delayed by a couple of days though!

[violet scarab]

The last couple will get there next week as I’m traveling this long weekend and Drew is on the other side of the world

[stable oracle]

You know what I like about OnAir the most? It helps keep me current and gives me good material to talk about in storage meetings. The most recent episode brought out a lot of conversation -- new questions along with the answers to the SMAS riddle we've been trying to make sense of since Insight '23. I only wish I could attend live everytime.

I think I need to add it to my calendar.

[violet scarab]

Yea just block 1-2P Eastern every Wednesday

<@&1132043707093364919> We're doing an introduction to one of our lesser-known, but more-powerful tools, FlexCache!

We're bringing in our resident expert Elliott Ecton, TME for Manageability Products here at NetApp to give us the intro & overview of this powerful feature of ONTAP!

@fiery drum Are these slides available for sharing?

@violet scarab Yes, but it requires Field Portal access. Or access to the Partner equivalent access.

Will we get some more NetApp ONAIR episodes? Lately it has been a little quiet 😔

ONTAP 9.17.1 just got released by the way 😬

[prisma shadow]

** RC1 got released. It's not the GA version

[sterile echo]

**:bar_chart: Would you tune-in for a livestream Watch Party of keynotes for annual conferences? **

🇦 That sounds awesome! Yes!
🇧 Meh. I don't really watch keynotes, but might stop by.
🇨 Hard pass. No thanks.

Want to help Simple Poll keep going? Upgrade to premium :star:

[violet scarab]

<@&1132043707093364919> I'm considering bringing back an old friend from the COVID lockdown period, and wanted to see if it would be something you're all interested in.

Keynote Watch Parties

Think of it as Peyton and Eli watching Monday Night Football, only it's tech conferences' sessions and keynotes. Would only be a handful of times per year (Microsoft Build/Ignite, VMworld, GTC, GCNext, re:Invent, etc)

Let me know what you think!

Will you DoorDash a six pack and pizza to participants?

[next swallow]

Yes, would love this.

I was out Jeepin, so i missed the first 30

Can we have storage grid nodes in AWS/Azure yet?

[prisma shadow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c31wyXLhCuc

[stable oracle]

We had a "whitebox" StorageGrid behind an IBM GMAS then a VM Storage Grid deployment, followed by real Storage Grid nodes.

[prisma shadow]

^ throw that in youtube chat 🙂

lol water filtration company

[stable oracle]

Thanks for another great OnAir episode.

[prisma shadow]

Just for you @stable oracle -- didn't see it in time for it to air

[stable oracle]

Nick surprised me translating my handle to name on the fly so quick 🙂
I appreciate that question being asked. Been chasing it for a few years.

[violet scarab]

TIL I can install StorageGRID on my own servers. I didn’t know that. That changes things a bit

[stable oracle]

Yesh. Since it was webscale. 🙂

It being docker containers blew my mind.

[rigid narwhal]

I didn't think it was supported though (sorry i missed the session)

[stable oracle]

Its supported as a VM for sure.

[crimson mesa]

I think it's not supported as container on just about any host OS, only Centos or RHEL or something. I remember trying to get it to work on Debian for a customer but we gave up and he installed Rocky ^^

[stable oracle]

Id like to be able to add a Grid node in Azure that wrote to Blob on its back end.

Help the sales team sell more grid licensing.

And i wonder if fabric pool to S3 licensing is more or less expensive than grid licensing.

[crisp glen]

StorageGRID has been white box for a long time

[rigid narwhal]

Few years back I had a customer ask about this for GcP. Didn’t go anywhere (unfortunately). Economics was cited as the reason.
