I can tell you this... Commvault Enterprise Data Protection solution is next to impossible to get it let go of your data! Even when you want it to! It's some of the most complicated software not because it's hard but because they've added SO many knobs and buttons to it (many many you don't need) it makes simple things an…

Wow sounds like a big trip!

VMan sure helps with this!!! I finally got all my cores covered!!!

My guess is the only reason EIGRP wasn't added is that it's Cisco proprietary routing protocol but not sure why that should matter. OSPF etc. are open source protocol.

I think it's actually a little harder when you don't know how many answers there are and it makes it more challenging.

yep we need multiple choice boxes not a single selection circle

I did too and like an idiot got it wrong. The reverse negative can suck you in!

They're really just RFID tags right?

Being from a background of internet providers I can actually see the Net Neutrality from both sides. How would you like it if some company like NetFlix with no infrastructure of their own could just eat 75% of your bandwidth for free?

Go ducks I guess then right?

Brady cheated!

Wow crazy two days now!

The better application recognition looks good as does the topology information. Anything to improved bandwidth utilization troubleshooting sounds good too!

It's ok this morning... I'm not sure what happened. For some reason I could get to thwack.solarwinds.com but not www.solarwinds.com At first I thought this was something on your end but then I had trouble reaching some root levels for other websites. Luckily it's all gone away today but stuff like that bothers me. 

It's handy to not have to copy and paste each time... I've seen this before even years ago with Windows XP machines. Did you make that video yourself Tom of the water? Bill

It's debatable about whether HCO and Security Observability can use AI. That's a little borderline. Or well HCO with it is supposed to at some point. I have SEM on multiple networks and I know what it does but integrated with HCO well... unfortunately on one of my bigger networks they're forcing splunk down my throat. Bill

This is my kind of drysuit:

This sums up the UFO pilot dilemma... just look at their skateboards. Oh and hey... the website looks really cool Tom!

I miss the old days of always going away to another state for training during the year.

I see that all the time... often with my own work. I may not say anything but I don't forget stuff like that.

Nothing like Pseudocode! Pseudocode - Wikipedia

I'm just glad the ball didn't continue on... go Chewbacca go!!!!

DR/BC is hard and not very easy to really test either. Good backups is the best place to start I think.

Awe Art Bell passed away! RIP Coast to Coast!

Yeah like the autopilot the barge was on one of our newest destroyers ran into! Applocker works pretty dang well too! You should see the bridge and technology on this bad boy we make: USS Independence Littoral Combat Ship (LCS 2) - YouTube

lmk I might be able to come up with something especially if I'm doing it already anyhow... also I'm a Cisco Gold Partner.

TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The greatest thing since sliced bread: * SNMP status-polling. ICMP reachability is no longer required - http://thwack.solarwinds.com/ideas/2868

That doesn't sound good o.O

BYOD is something we'd like to do in the defense industry but it's a big risk. Currently the focus is on virtualized containers inside the phone which would protect the defense information from the rest of the phone and users apps. Although this has some promise many aren't ready to stake their reputation on it yet.
