For us today it's all about RMF - Risk Management Framework.

That's what I'm always thinking too about these geek speak things... more than half of them are covered by tools from SW.

So true... you have ONE phone number to call and the big MPLS providers have built great redundancy into their own MPLS clouds. Nothing is perfect, like you said, there will always be power failures, fiber cuts, and some things aren't avoidable. Another great things about having the MPLS provider hand you a fiber at each…

Nothing beats an air gapped network Ricky! A lot less to worry about without any outside connections to anywhere :^}

Don't know if it was just me but the part where we rate the items with numbers... no matter what number I clicked on next to an item it kept renumbering everything from the top to bottom 1,2,3,4,5 like that ie. I couldn't re-arrange the numbers.

I think I lost my mind years ago as far as IT stuff goes!

Apples are good this time of the year I like the Honey Crisp the best!

Dev what???

There are a couple frameworks I'd never even heard before!

Pretty neat... unfortunately we've been on Remedy for years! Thanks God we've been NPM, NTA, SAM, NCM, SRM, VMAN, WPM users at least for years too though! Bill

Thanks and of all of these kinds of things I've done besides get my BS Science... the CISSP has carried the most weight.

@"Radioteacher" Check it out buddy!!! Now to fashion a great case for them!!! I also have an attachment for this pcb that can drive two OG-4 dekatrons with the 8091's! On another note I love the telecaster body... sometimes with a strat neck attached!

The CISSP is nice feather in your cap these days. Having that on your resume goes a long way... it sure is a racket though! https://www.youracclaim.com/badges/ee5407b2-e330-4f24-861c-6cc353fc3363/public_url

designerfx​ I really like the sound of that... I currently have APE running on separate VM and sometimes with upgrades it because kinda a pain or have issues... how do you handle the upgrades when they are stacked?

You're right Peter... Once you get NCM it's hard to imagine how you got along without it!

whew! I wasn't 100% sure about today's question but got it... I thought the sphero looked pretty cool too!

Honolulu looks pretty interesting! Project “Honolulu” technical preview is now available for download! | Windows Server Blog Microsoft Project Honolulu | Microsoft Docs What is Honolulu?Honolulu is a locally deployed, browser-based, management tool set that enables on-premises administration of Windows Servers with no…

Today 14th question says This survey is not accepting additional responses at this time. Thank You!

Good answer. Speaking of storage, B.r.a.d. has quite a stash of snacks in his filing cabinet. You’re welcome to them next time you stop by to fix the ol’ laptop.

I like that one Jfrazier​ perhaps a Height balanced AVL tree of Geeks! I love Computer Science! Data Structures and Algorithms AVL Trees

Amen to that @"paynecave"!!! Bill

I'm not sure yet... the table looks pretty sweet! You are correct though where to put it! I'm not a huge cornhole fan even though I grew up in the midwest (big cornhole area)... The fridge would be pretty cool on my desk... it is a solid state peltier cooler I think... good enough to cool down six cans stacked 2x3 on their…

woops the logo seems to go to this months challenge and not the home page anymore o.O! If you wanna get back home and you usually use the thwack icon you may need this: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/welcome

I'm mostly German so bring on the Pork & ***! The growler looks pretty good too! Bill 

These are all good things I think we all are facing. For me compliance is probably the biggest.

This is newer web alert specific it looks like as this used to work in 11.0.1?

I'm not sure Tim Cook has everyone's best interest in mind.

I can think of a LOT of things I'd tell myself if I could do it all over again. I have made some decisions that in hindsight might have been better done another way.

I've found it takes some serious work to keep your dashboards current if they are related to say your WAN nodes as they are always changing. Maybe something dynamic with groups would be good where they could auto-populate!

I use the tools every day... Orion, SEM, Syslog Server all to help with maintaining our security stance and being ready to pass DCMA audits. As you know most recently trying to get so I can use SEM on smaller Information Systems to help satisfy that one ultimate goal of RMF - Continuous Monitoring! SEM keeps getting better…
