Ugh...I was out last week...just playing catchup....plus there should be the next issue today.

During the time of the cutover I am sure someone will be designing a t-shirt "The Day Thwack was down" or "Thwack Broke My Day". Of course others will likely be rocking gently in the corner or checking every other minute..."is Thwack up yet?"

We currently have both...the lines have become somewhat blurred.

Tuesday Bump!

I used a franklin (Apple II+ clone) to connect to the university. 1200 baud modem to a Vax/VMS system. It was so overloaded it took 5 minutes to echo a character back to the screen. So much for working on assignments from home. Lab time it was.

Need even more caffeine bump...

Some of the SaaS vendors changes could affect your companies web browsers requiring a certain level of java or some other plugin. Depending on your environment, that may break other apps you must have to keep the lights on. So there must be some avenue to test and validate built into the contract. That is the key...it has…

Wednesday morning where is my coffee bump

Way to go mattoz​

Congratulations !!

Wireless is a convenience. Convenience is and will always be a compromise. What is compromised will vary on various factors.

who me ?

hmmmm, do you just use it for interface stats ? 

In my case my father was in IT in the early 70's as part of the Army. It was in the early 70s I went into the office with him on a Saturday while he did some work. They had an IBM mainframe mounted in 2 50' air ride trailers parked side by side with a pass through on the side. CPU, printer, console, and card reader on one…

How about a simple polling tool..sort of a subset of the IP Monitor (ICMP and a few select SNMP oids...up to 20 per node) that feeds back an XML datastream once every 5 minutes to the primary polling engine. This keeps the chatter down and a near time view of the remote environment... Just a brief brain dump...need more…

I try and avoid the bleeding edge...give it a chance to have the first fixpack or 2 out before I adopt.

I agree a big chunk is the money making machine...but the CLI is scriptable. Which means you can update a large number of devices the same way with minimal human interaction. I used to script config changes for 5000+ juniper 5GT's using perl. Worked great and you could have 80% done within a 2-3 hour window.

sqlrockstar​, good stuff here. Hmm, Microsoft and Linkedin ? Not sure what to think of on that. I'm surprised Facebook or Google didn't snag them.

I think the link from the pop-up question box when you submit the answer that indicates success and you have 150 points and such is what is broken...at least by my observation.

sharepoint = scarepoint

I had voted on day 7 poll outside of the mission. When I go to it I see the poll results but when I return to the mission the day 7 still shows as if it has not been attempted yet.

Good basic set of tips... Thank you,

need to find out more about openstack...

Now I have....

DanielleH​ can confirm, but I believe it is up in the Plano/Frisco area.

Thanks adatole​ !

I am in the same boat as the others. Our primary sites are internal, while we do have some external customer facing sites they are not geared towards mobile devices. I do not know if we are going to build for that in the future but at that point in time it would potentially be a concern. As you mentioned the plethora of…

Automated network device configuration is all fine and good, but the same applies to server builds so that they are all consistent and up to expected standards.

So is saving a copy of the url for each item sufficient? In otherwords is the URL patch going to be the same for all the content, bookmarks, etc?

Great stuff @"ChrystalT" ! I am looking forward to the upcoming content here.
