So what you are really talking about is a data warehouse, a CMDB, and near time visualizations of the represented data in a useful construct with the ability to produce alerts based upon thresholds...

Very good points. By having some programming knowledge it really does help you understand some of the behaviour you see in various environments. If you code a fair amount, having knowledge of other languages gives you a better tool base to work from. Good post !

I will have to wait until I get home to look at dungeons and deadlines....MCafee blocks it.

congrats dospavlos​ and bosco777​ !

Voted up ! #bumpsquad​

All it takes is a little phishing to infect a persons pc and then next thing you have a ransomware event going on.

As @Phillipmanning said we had purchased a smaller license set for testing/dev work, I know at least one of the big 3 provides huge discounts on dev/test instances as long as there is a valid production license. These days it just makes sense to be able to do evaluation testing of new releases, release candidates, proof of…

Lets keep helping jbiggley​ bump !

that would make it a plan C. In a former life, all backups of our midrange machines were processed in and cataloged on our mainframe with copies sent offsite allowing for better retention and recovery capability. We had weekly and monthly full backups with daily incremental backups. This gave us plan C and plan D. Plan D…

Mission accomplished !

While a bit more price wise and you need a motorcycle license, these are in production by Polaris http://www.polaris.com/en-us/slingshot/slingshot While the MPG is lower (likely around 35mpg) it does have a 2.4 litre DOHC engine with a 5 speed manual transmission. I've seen a few around...173 HP so the power to weight…

That may be the case....just think of the possibilities of going back in time with perfstack.

An alert is an alert whether it comes from polling or from a generated event such as a trap. It needs to be managed from the same place (advanced alert manager) and viewable from the same place (alert browser). Regarding the original posting...a reset may not be feasible...remember a trap is an unsolicited event. There may…

go with the info that is specifically listed in the hints...the speculative items are just that.

Data normalization is one of those fun topics I have brought up over the years usually regarding databases but as you mention here it also applies to metrics and thresholds. In reports you must be sure you are talking apples to apples. Another fun topic area for normalization is a CMDB and all the CI's. They tie into…

yes

Ah...the benefits of VPN.

Dang Bronx‌ I am like cahunt‌ just years later....how did I miss this !

Congrats charlesmerritt​ !

That was a bargin at that time...talk about "Holy charge back Batman!!"

Pretty much everyone is spot on... no need to re-iterate what has been said.

wluther , you got one of those Murphys too ? Small world !

"Nuke'm from orbit...it's the only way."

I bug various people every chance I get on this. It was even mentioned during the DFW SWUG.

Week 1 complete !!

He wrote it 5 days ago....the 800 lb. gorilla was not in the room...yet.

Congrats shale2001 !!!!

We could always do a kids Saturday morning creature feature bracket with the likes of the Sleestak and others....

That one scene caused me to check it out...while probably not the greatest version to sample, I picked up a package at the local Costco. Wasn't bad, my wife didn't care for it. 

Another good read...
