Is Dual Booting in the Enterprise Worth It? Version 2 IS DUAL BOOTING IN THE ENTERPRISE WORTH IT? ERIC T GADSBY [email protected], [email protected] HTTP://WWW.ERICGADSBY.COM About Me: • My name is Eric Gadsby. I have worked for Towson University's Cook Library the last three years. For fourteen years prior to that I worked at Goucher College. • I have worked with Apple computers since I was in Elementary School, I used my first Mac when I was in Middle School. • Much of my professional work has been devoted to integrating Apple products into Windows based educational environments with focuses on: • Apple products and Active Directory • Introducing higher levels of service for Apple products in said environments • Implementing Mac OS X Server for management • Implementing Casper Suite for management • Heading up two major Dual Booting initiatives at both Goucher College and Towson University's Cook Library. About Towson University & Cook Library: “Towson University is "One of the nation’s premier regional public universities, Towson University offers a welcoming environment for living and learning in close proximity to the area’s top educational, cultural and community resources...With a rich 150-year tradition, Towson University offers students the best of both worlds – a breadth of academic programs and exceptional faculty typical of a large university, coupled with the close-knit community and highly personalized approach of a small college.” (http://www.towson.edu/about/) The Albert S. Cook Library is the main library on campus and serves as an academic hub for the campus As our director is fond of reminding us "Nobody graduated from a library, nobody graduated without one"... You can learn more about Towson University at http:// www.towson.edu and Cook Library at http:// cooklibrary.towson.edu Agenda: • We will talk though many aspects of dual booting • Some history and background • The good, the bad, and the ugly • Other Mac Admin's impressions gathered from the survey • There will be ample time for questions and discussion What this session is: • A 365 degree look at dual booting macOS and Windows • Linux and other OS's an Apple computer may also be able to run will not be discussed simply because it is out of the scope of this discussion • Not particularly technical, but some processes, and products will be discussed What this session is not • A full blown end to end look ROI or TCO • but it will be touched on • A workshop or technical session even though a lot of technology will be discussed • If you are looking for step by step instructions or a boot camp on BootCamp then this is not the session for you “Worth” defined: • Let's jump in head first and get an operational definition out of the way “Worth” defined: • A simple definition of “worth”: "an amount of something that has a specified value, that lasts for a specified length of time, etc. the amount of money that something is worth usefulness or importance” (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/worth) • Given many factors this session will focus on the 3rd given definition, and look at the process’s usefulness and the importance of this process in the Enterprise "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" ~Arthur C. Clarke Dual Booting: • What is Dual Booting? • Modern computers, configured to consistently utilize two different operating systems and associated applications . • In this case we are talking about Macintosh computers running macOS and Windows • Multi booting is not new: • Early Apple II's and IBM compatible computers had the OS on the program disks you put into the floppy drive— so in theory you could use 20 operating systems in a day and not really know it... Apple's vision of dual booting... when "BootCamp" works best: • For a home user http://aaplinvestors.net/wp-content/themes/revolution-20/investorimages/1977AppleIISpread.jpg How is BootCamp Involved: • An install wizard that helps you install Windows on Macintosh computers • A set of Windows drivers for Apple computers • BootCamp helps a system dual boot but is not 100% required to dual boot • A common mistake made by users and non technical management Dual Booting Is Not A Panacea • There are advantages and disadvantages http://backporchgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/the-lego-movie-awesome-e1392309318427-big.jpg So what this is really about? 1995 -1998 Warner Brothers Animation Why might you want to do this? • Sometimes it's a good idea • Sometimes is's a necessity • Address Inclusively • Address Exclusivity • Apple hardware does tend to be very nice http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2oplteSfv1qgum3lo1_1280.png • Hardware is well built • It lasts a long time • It tends to have a better TCO • The iMac is a very appealing form factor • Thought many PC vendors are catching up in this respect Inclusivity & Exclusivity • Address Inclusivity • Make your users able to use the features of the Western world’s most popular operating systems • Offer your users choice over their competing environment • Address Exclusivity • Give users who primarily use one operating system access to applications or features not found on the other • Example: Only on Windows; Microsoft Project • Example: Only on macOS; Final Cut Pro Why you might not want to do this • Sometimes it's just a bad idea • Not a good use case http://imgur.com/0RkTF • Example: It’s cool (Or your CIO thinks so…) • Other technology like SaaS or virtualized applications function better • Can be more expensive then you might first think • Can be very labor intensive Aside: Still Fighting Platform Wars? • Are your needs for dual boot systems a grand bargain? • Is your dual boot system a new battle in platform wars or the last battle? • Do you not know yet? http://www.technobuffalo.com/2012/10/21/time-trippin-apples-hideous-1996-mac-promo-video/ "Change is inevitable. Change is constant.” ~Benjamin Disraeli History: • Apple’s Intel transition • The decision to move away from PowerPC architecture had a lot to do with a lack of innovations in PPC technology by Motorola that came to a head when the late Apple CEO Steve Jobs lost his temper with Motorola and decided to partner with Intel. (Steve Jobs, 446-448) • Apple announced this transition on Jun 5th, 2005 and the process was competed by early 2006. (http://www.theregister.co.uk/ 2005/06/06/apple_intel_migration/, Steve Jobs, 446-448) • After the 2006 transition, Intel based Apple computers were technically able to run Windows • Apple's use of more stock components and less "invented here" products makes running Windows possible Parts Of A Dual Boot Enterprise: • Mass Deportment • Deploy Studio • Casper Suite • WinClone • Other solutions • OS support and software Support • Mac OS X Server • Windows Server • Casper Suite • Munki • Puppet • And many more… Parts Of A Dual Boot Enterprise: • Hardware Support • Providing methods to choose the OS • rEFInd • BootRunner • A custom solution Dual Booting's Dirty Secret(s): • You are still running two OS's... • You might need twice as many Minions... I mean support staff • You will need more support technology to monitor and keep up two OS’s: • A Mac management product like Mac OS X Server, Casper, or another solution • A Windows management product like SCCM, Ghost, or others http://files.vividscreen.info/soft/f7de61a688e2033cde30ef3266120730/Minions-Wallpaper-for-Laptop-1920x1200.jpg Dual Booting's Dirty Secret(s) • Depending on your needs your costs could be very high • Monetary Costs • To achieve close to 100% parity between your macOS and Windows installs you may need two licenses of the same software; • Example: Adobe Creative Cloud • Understanding your vendors and contracts is important • Some educational institutions may enjoy special pricing though a consortium • For example, in Maryland MEEC helps… • Small enterprises and shops may find pricing burdensome • If you are an exclusively macOS or Windows shop you will need to purchase additional management tools Dual Booting's Dirty Secret(s) • Staffing and expertise costs • Even a staff very talented in deploying and maintaining macOS and Windows will experience a learning curve • If you are new to supporting one of these OS's then your staff will need to get up to speed • In the area of management there are many FOSS tools, but your staff will need the time and expertise to learn and maintain them "We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon … and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, …that challenge is one that we are willing to accept..." " ~John F Kennedy Are you prepared? • Is your enterprise primed to support this kind of process? • You will need means to support both OS's • Do you already have that in place? • Are you willing to put it in place? • Are you prepared to work hard on this? Are you prepared? • Get your project management on: Project Management Institute (PMI) outlines 5 stages in it's handbook the "A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide)" 5th edition: Initiating Planning Executing Monitoring and Controlling: Closing Are you prepared? • My experience with Dual Booting suggests that planning is the most crucial step • Requirements gathering • Setting scope and expectations • Does this work in real life? • Sometimes, it depends on your corporate culture About the survey and testimonials • Quite a few members of the community have offered their ideas and comments via email, phone, and an on- line survey • Thank you for your help! Many great comments and observations! • NOTE: This was very informal information gathering and is in no way complete, scientific, or IRB reviewed • Many have asked for their comments to remain anonymous. Names are used only with permission. Have you deployed dual boot Macs? Have you found the process to be worthwhile? “We have programs that require applications that are unique to both platforms.

  • Ghostbusters 1984
    GHOSTBUSTERS Written by Harold Ramis & Dan Aykroyd Final Shooting Script Last revised October 7, 1983 FADE IN 1 EXT. NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY -- DAY 1 The sun shines brightly on the classic facade of the main library at Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. In the adjacent park area, pretty hustlers and drug peddlers go about their business. FRONT STEPS A few people lounge on the steps flanked by the familiar stone lions. 2 INT. MAIN READING ROOM -- DAY 2 People are dotted throughout the room sitting at the long oak tables polished by decades of use. Reading lamps with green glass shades cast a golden glow on the tables. The patina of age is everywhere. It is very quiet. LIBRARIAN A slightly stout, studious looking girl in her late twenties circulates quietly among the tables picking up books and putting them on her cart. Everything seems completely normal and peaceful. POV A single eerie musical note signals the presence of something strange looking down on the Librarian from a vantage point high above the room. It follows the Librarian as she pushes her cart around the corner. 3 INT. WORK AREA 3 The Librarian is alone in a back room sorting books for reshelving. Behind her is the card catalogue. One of the books attracts her interest and she starts leafing through it. 4 THE CARD CATALOGUE 4 Another eerie note is heard as one of the drawers silently slides open behind the Librarian and hundreds of index cards start popping out. The Librarian continues reading completely oblivious to this strange phenomenon.

  • Comedic Devices HUMOROUS LITERARY DEVICES About Comedic Devices
    Comedic Devices HUMOROUS LITERARY DEVICES About Comedic Devices We have all heard of literary devices in literature. Since elementary school, we have studies things like plot, setting, denouement, and conflict. We have even studied literary devices that fall specifically under the umbrella of figurative language: metaphor, simile, allegory, allusion. Did you know that there are certain literary devices whose purpose is to enhance the comedic aspects of literature? We will be looking at several of these devices and evaluating our text, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, for both examples of comedic devices and to explore how these devices enhance the comedy of Shakespeare’s play. Repetition Repetition in comedic writing is a bit different than repetition in poetry or prose. In comedy, repetition can also be referred to as a callback. It occurs when a statement or a theme is recalled as the punch line to a joke or at the close of a scene. Repetition is also considered a “classic example of the tension and release …where repetition is used to set up a modus operandi and build tension before [a solution] provides the resolving juxtaposition.” (Comedic Device) Example: Picture a comedic scene in which a wife and husband are getting ready to go to work. The wife judiciously reminds the husband that “It’s cold outside, so grab a sweater.” Throughout their morning routine, the wife keeps reminding the husband to grab a sweater. When the wife drives by her husband on his bicycle (on his way to work) we see the icicles hanging from his nose and his face and ears red with cold.

  • Knowledge Base for Solving Ubuntu 18.04 Installation Problems
    Knowledge base for Solving Ubuntu 18.04 Installation Problems NOTE: Most installation problems can be avoided by turning off secure boot (exception: Acer laptops need special configuration .. see step 3) and fast boot options in the BIOS setup. However, certain system-specific problems can be diagnosed and resolved as described below. 1.a Cannot Shrink Windows partition Problem: Windows reports > 60 GB unused space on hard drive but refuses to shrink the partition by any significant amount. Solution: (from TeraJournal, on Medium here) Try 1 – 2 steps at a time, in this order, reboot, and see if the available shrink space has increased. 1. Turn off disk encryption. 2. Close all programs including your browser and run the Disk Cleanup Wizard (be sure to remove all restore points and the hibernation file). 3. Disable System Protection as follows: Searching for "Advanced System Setting" and once you see "View Advanced System Setting", click on it. A small window that says "System Properties" on the top-left corner will appear. It has about five tabs below where it says System Properties. Look for the one that says "System Protection" and click it. Check for "Protection Settings", you’ll see a table listing Available Drives and corresponding Protection. If the Protection status is Off, skip this step. Otherwise, below the table, check for a button that says "Configure", click it and another window will appear. The first thing on the new window is Restore Settings and below it are options to turn System Restore On or Off. Select "Disable system protection". Click "OK" at the bottom of the window.
