Old Hallows eve monday morning caffeine deprived bump !!

tied up at the office and missing ThwackCamp 2017.... <bummed>

Agreed, it is a bit ambiguous and then there would be the matter of proof that you got permission. Is there a requirement other than written to provide proof of permission? 

I live within site of a lake...pass other lakes on the way to and from work. Sometimes have to take alternate routes due to high water on rivers that feed said lakes. Right now one route is closed due to bridge being out... But being by the beach was great. Used to go diving at the jetty at low tide...surf fishing when the…

Sounds like we need a poll to see how many of us geeks have "retained graphite injection syndrome"... Yes I would also be included in that list.

okay...since it looks like chat will be blocked here at the office for thwack camp I'll be able to look at these articles (hopefully not blocked). Yes the VPN solution exists...but I would need to disable local network access and do some finagling to set up an acceptable workaround that doesn't totally run afoul of…

Saturday Airport bump

Whoo Hoo...votes are slowly climbing bump !

Funny you should mention releasing the factory installed smoke. When the TCM (Thermal Conduction Module) of a water cooled mainframe goes...it smells like something is burning. Perfect excuse to hit the EPO on the side of the CPU....

That is the challenge. If everybody rolls there own there is no accountability nor standards. Having a central team allows things to be put in place and tracked via ticketing. Thus requests and the subsequent monitor/notification procedure is documented and we can be sure the persons being notified are aware and signoff on…

proper comments/documentation in the scripts are super important....otherwise they are not 3 AM friendly.

Monday morning and not enough coffee yet bump !

You just need to read a bit further...

I can't believe it hasn't been bumped yet this morning bump !

beside it you need post a sign "don't feed the admins" and post a picture of a gremlin next to it. Or enclose in a glass box and post a sign to break glass in emergency and leave an inflatable thwack hammer next to it.

good one wluther​ ! 

It is funny that lifelock is providing the same discount (10%) that all the radio jocks give....just they get to keep the extra little bit the jocks would get as a residual.

Never heard of the show but then I don't have much time to watch tv these days. I'll have to record the episodes and watch later.

I'd love to put a wind turbine on top of the building...but being in the approach path of a local airport we can't put much of anything on top of the building. Ideally it would be a mix of wind and solar so like today with not much wind but lots of sun we'd still get power.

Nice topic. The charts provided some interesting data and a "NBAD" tool was something new although I know of some tools that take that a bit further with regards to general traffic and event log monitoring looking for anomolies as it determines cause and effect type of relationships. But to have that at just the network…

Like it !

mcam​ hits the nail on the head here.

Looks nifty...

A central log server is a must for troubleshooting, audit, security, etc. Looking back..that becomes an issue with SolarWinds due to the roll-ups of detail data to hourly and daily data points. How can you tell if your upgrades to data circuits, hardware, config changes to network gear, physical hardware have helped solve…

failure to have data normalization in custom properties will eat your lunch !

Congrats gladis​ !!

Keep the BYOD devices on a guest network...those that are allowed on the primary need to have some validation that they are virus/malware free and some security token.

Congrats then to dmbeckemeyer​ ! Agreed, well done tinmann0715​ !

Ah...but is it tempered ?

Resistance is futile, you will be automated...
