Ok I gotta show some of my lab at home: My Herman Miller Aero Chair... I have one at home and at work. I can't show you the one at work... I'd have to #@$& you. HP 53132A, HP3458A, HP 3456A, Stanford Research Systems 620. Ok I gotta continue on next post because I've reached the size limit.. Bill

Thanks Chrystal!

This can be a really hard problem to solve. With all the different license types for OSS and having trouble figuring out where it's actually developed.

Good stuff here!!!

That's a good one.

I think ACI monitoring is in the new NPM beta that just started... I've seen some screenshots of it and it looks like it going in the right direction. If you can setup a beta environment I'd say join the beta program.

I too was right there with you Will back in the 9.x days of NPM when there were some big bugs and big complaints. We've come a long way from that now. Even during the 10.x days there were some hacks you almost needed to do to Orion... many you had to redo every time we upgraded. It's nice to say we don't really need to do…

is this a devops thing?

Can't you add variables to tooltips now? I used to do it years ago...

Fire is descriptive.

It was just a bad question I just got it wrong after thinking about it for a day.

It seems VMware is dead set on having their suit of tools run on any cloud and it's a good thing. They have market share and are intent on keeping it it seems.

The same thing happened with OPM with our SF86 data... it was a 3rd party contractor that was the back door that led to them getting in... some say it was the Chinese that did it.

If you think about it some application could store paper documents if they were scanned in and put in a pdf or something and stored in a safe location... just saying. I'm NOT saying papertrail does this. At least this question makes a little more sense than the Monday one... I still think that was a really bad question.

I really don't get exchange very well...

Geesh another winner that joined the same week... actually yesterday! o.O I'm starting to wonder if people are creating accounts just to do the contests now...js???

Wow I may have to check that out... I haven't done as much playing lately but I really still love reading ALL the material.

In the process of considering adding the SRM module to our Orion suite of modules... it's licensed by number of disks.

I'm so sick of those guys... sorry. Some guys broke into a building and got caught. Compared to what's been going on with things like using the US intelligence apparatus to spy on political opponents has happened it doesn't really seem like much anymore.

I'm still looking... ugh!

So so true! It's one area that causes me a lot of problems.

Funny I think I've seen that bacon man before somewhere!

We need more power Scotty! Our shields are down!!!

That Ruth Chris steak dinner looks legit!

Exciting stuff... how you can generate the heat maps is o.O! The capacity management is something we were trying to do on our own with just standard reporting system. We are very excited about web based alerting as it will allow one of the biggest outstanding configuration hassles to go away... no longer will we have to…

Not breaking things in the main production environment are pretty high up on the list for sure! It's great if you actually have a decent dev environment... unfortunately that's not always the case. The alternative is rather than running something on everything find a way to start small a limit the damage in case things do…

That's a bad cabling job for sure! I'm totally done with FB... don't need it don't want it.

And new backup software like Commvault Simpana which we switched to is so complicated with so many different dials and buttons it takes an specialized Commvault 4 year degree to start to understand it o.O!

Patrick I understand your pain. The AD integration works great and as I'm sure you're already aware you can implement CAC with AD. Not being able to control your own AD forest would be a big deal for us if we were in that boat... I too have to deal with strict guidelines on password policy... in fact the 90 days you…

Two parts of the same thing.
