Thursday - Arrrgggh - I listened to the video twice last night & once today before committing to the answer. But it was worth it. Yipee

Day-9 I'm confused. The Q asks to pick the correct answers. I think I did, but got an X with the text saying that I hadn’t selected the "Incorrect" ones

Evolution is the only sensible way Revolution rarely works

Hi Cal, Did you mean to mail me with this. I did some SW Academy courses a while back, but I think I got credit for them all. However, if you’ve got a beta you’d like me to check out, - - - I’m more than happy to give it a go And thank you for giving me the opportunity to try out the new scalability exam. Talk soon, & hope…

Good to hear.. Thanks.

If I'm endangered, do I get fed too ?

It's the Pie-chart function that's missing & we could use that in so many ways

Absolutely correct Build the alert, test the alert (to yourself & probably with completely skewed thresholds or trigger setting so that the alert triggers), fix the alert (cos it's probably not exactly what you intended), re-test the alert (to yourself). then reset all the skewed thresholds and let it trigger for real (to…

Is there any update on this yet?

Congrats & enjoy

If the F5 key didn't work, have you tried turning it off & on again?

So does a hyphen or not a hyphen really cost me a X ?

More modules, wider visibility, more correlation - oh, hang on, that's HCO

whatever the hype - Congratulations

Hi Wendy, I don't see my 300 points yet. Does that mean that my answer was wrong? Many thanks, Robert

woo hoo ! Congrats to you all

agreed :(

Daylight Saving Time Who are they trying to kid? Twice a year no one knows how to schedule an international call. Systems lose track. What chance have mere mortals got? Just leave time alone and work on GMT with a plus or minus for wherever you live.

It makes a lot of sense. One tool with multiple uses & a facility to backup & restore the entire set.

Nice post Leon. I guess a lot of it is down to - Are you comfortable & confident with what YOU do? - If not, it seems quite common to try to beat everyone else down to show how great you are, but with a combination age, experience, knowledge, variety & confidence it becomes easier to relate to others, to teach where…

ooooo eeerrrrr. I didn't even notice Q4's spelling mistake What does that make me?

I won something once. My grandmother bought me a raffle ticket at the local church fair & I won first prize - an electric shaver. I was 12. It was years before I got to use it.

Totally agree that time zones should be understood by Orion. Each node needs a GMT offset and a summertime on/off. The SQL should log as GMT/UTC/z. Then there should be a simple or automatic way of adjusting all of the summertime on/off for nodes in a specific region. It's crucial for global businesses. As an aside, I've…

Oct 16 Wow, that's a really hard question. It does depend on your background, your perspective and your currently installed monitoring, but -- keep it relevant - -

Oh No. I got an "Oops! This page doesn't exist." from the https://www.dameware.com/remote-monitoring 

The prizes this month are awsome. 

Hi DanielleH & friends, I entered the entry above as a "reply" to awaisranacs, but it seems to have just dumped it at the same top level. Without an indented structure this will quickly get very confusing with replies to multiple comments. It used to work well, but it all seems flat now. With regards, Robert

Bump, Bump (just to complete the song)

and they're still too broad need some users to be able to add nodes & set custom properties other users to be able to "delete" (or actually to place nodes, monitors etc into a recycle bin so that all the history is maintained and the delete undone by a real admin"
