The Hint article is good. In case you skim it and miss the key point, just search for the keywords and it will all be revealed. You can do this!

Happy SysAdmin Day, everybody!

You and me both! I missed one on a typo. I was trying to resolve a user issue at the same time, so I did not double-check the answer before I clicked Submit. Still kicking myself. 

This is good info, and I wish I had noticed it before. I have just been clicking around randomly up until now. D'oh!

The answers are in the article verbatim. 

I'll drink to that!

I like that new feature about predicting problems where it sends a drone with tacos and pizza before you even start troubleshooting the issue. The food arrives just as the issue starts. Well done!

If I am running 2019.4, do I really need to do the steps in Kevin's video?

What @beestmode wrote below really is a hint. It just doesn't sound like it. You can do this!

This is the way!

You may have clicked on Success Center and then you saw that it was highlighted in the circle that included Customer Portal. It kind of looks like it includes everything else until you click on each one individually. I can see where that could be confusing. 

@"yumdarling" I thought I understood what you meant when you highlighted that section, but with the documentation wrong, showing both ways as the right answer, I got it wrong. I respectfully request a reset on this question. It is very confusing to have documentation say two different things. I spent a lot of time reading…

Excellent! Teamwork!!

I got it right as well. It says to pick three. Did you pick all three? 

Just to verify, you have changed it to check boxes so we need to provide multiple answers, not just one. 

So does "can consolidated" mean "can correlate"?

I agree with knucklebusted, this is a poorly worded question and a bad hint. Help me out, I am saving up for a jacket and it is getting cold.

Yes, and if that bumbling moron is the CEO...you are SG&T. (Screwed, Glued, & Tattooed)

They were out of those very cool blankets, so they had to order more.

They must have fixed it. I picked the ones where they were different, and not the ones where they were the same, and that worked fine for me.

The plan is to: Move from NetFlow to NBAR2 to pull more information from our Cisco devices about our applications. Make sure all IIS, SQL, and SharePoint monitoring is in place and accurate. Write additional components for the applications built in-house. We did this with our two largest applications already, and we need…

I LOVED today's question. Thank you!

NOC Center is redundant, like PIN Number, ATM Machine, VIN Number, and NIC Card.

In that section, it does use the word Running next to the correct number.

My biggest problem with the first one is that cloud-native and cloud-hosted are not actually the same thing, although they were assumed to be in the question. I found that confusing. I did find this: Q. In the simplest terms, what’s the difference between cloud hosted and cloud native?Cloud hosted—often associated with…

Actually, I have learned a few things this month already. I don't learn as much when I am stressing over the answers. Since we are not all experts in all these areas, a gentle introduction is much preferred. I am a network person, so when you talk about databases, my blood pressure goes up. Knowing there are SolarWinds…

I think I got one point as well.

I read the hint several times, and I find it confusing. My dislike for SQL isn't helping.

So what do we do for the rest of the month?
