That's annoying, the
columncommand has limited amount of options in Debian 10 and Ubuntu 19.10 compared to Fedora. I have a script that usescolumnand the option that I'm using doesn't exist with the version on Debian/Ubuntu.you could compile a version from source. Or maybe replace column with a combination of awk and sed?
No go with compiling since I sometimes use my script while using a Live distro installer. Maybe I can use awk and/or sed but the formatting is off compare to using column. I'll just stick with using Fedora Live installers when I want to run the script in a live session.
I figured it out the bad formatting I was getting.

ext4 is a given. What is common in the SMB realm?
ext4 is what you find in the SMB 98% of the time. XFS is what we recommend most of the time.
Why XFS over EXT4 ? Honestly curious.
Reliability, performance. EXT4 has some essentially pointless features that make it popular with the non-production set like the ability to shrink an on the fly partition. Not something you use in prod or a server, not something I've ever used, but in theory, a niche need in a lab or consumer system. But giving up performance or stability for that? Crazy (outside of lab or consumer.)
EXT4 is very good for a desktop, and has a slight edge in the small file transactions common there. XFS has a performance edge with nearly all workloads. Nothing is the best always.
Thanks for the heads up. On our systems at work that use it, it seems to have a 1MB block file. Is that the norm for XFS?

XFS block size default is 4KB. Maximum is 64KB.

So on this what do people use? ELK Stack, Graylog, Solarwinds etc. Zabbix maybe?

Sounds good. Maybe Grafana? Everything you mentioned is a decent choice (except Solarwinds, never used it)

Finally back to work. Took a couple weeks off to be a stay at home dad while my wife recovers from a total shoulder replacement surgery.

ELK Stack or Graylog for straight logging. Wazuh if you want processing.

Same, it's a great list and then shitty Solarwinds thrown in. LOL I would never do business with them, ever. Highly malicious vendor that I'd worry about allowing into my shop. We have a cease and desist order with them and they are only allowed to speak with us through lawyers because they are so aggressive and malicious. We nearly had to sue them.

Not odd, the entire industry has known for decades that you send people home to work, you bring them to the office for politics and to serve the egos of managers. Nearly everyone is way more productive at home. That's why nearly all good companies don't just allow it, they encourage it.

as that may be true: i was saying odd because of hours and how I have to put less hours on my time card because I worked from home.

you have to put less hours on your card because you work at home? Did I miss something?
