Anyone done the Mission Shortcut yet and can better explain what I'm taking a screenshot of?

@"the_ben_keen" - same here. Except I only got points for the round of 32 and 16 but defo voted in all rounds.

@"yumdarling" system gave me a fail on today's despite me selecting the right option (all). Something odd going on.

Pah - forget that. The word suddenly jumped out at me:

@"jblankjblank" as I didn't even know this was possible I'm going to have to pass on answering this one.

Oh, and one more thing. Why oh why can't I edit a link? ** And here, I mean one I've created rather than an auto-populated one. Though that should be a must have as well. ** if there is some arcane invocation I have to undertake to do this then I have thus far failed to determine it.

Moi aussi - no green ticky tick for Day 11. Day 12 works fine.

And me @"yumdarling" :( 

@"topkick" - have a look through this thread - there are a few of us in the same boat. You may want to join us and suggest a way to take it forward. Currently we are waiting on KMSigma to produce his book and maybe that will aid us.

I keep being told "if the data is in the DB then it can be extracted" but nobody seems to be able to tell me how to do that extraction. There should be, as I think the Op intends, be a straightforward on/off switch for alerting / messaging on individual job AND/OR node failures.

@"kpina" and @"KMSigma.SWI" I concur - what a messy question and as far as I can see completely wrong. Can you fix it and provide me with a 'do over' ? Thanks.

Well doh - of course. Silly me. Thanks....

Thanks Ben - a good read, and wish I'd seen this a year or two back (I know it's only been a few weeks since you wrote it but ...) as some concepts nicely explained about SWQL and how it links or interlinks. Just getting around to starting to play with modern dashboards - specifically I'm using them to replicate the…

Has to be Monty Python.

Don't want no steenkin bodges.

thank you - only just seen this but got there in the end. I fond 2 across easy to answer once I read the popup as it has an extra word - I just couldn't link the first part of the clue to the 2nd with my answers

@"yumdarling"the link goes to a "permanently deleted" document

Yup - am aware of this bodge and pretty sure I've suggested it to someone somewhere But as I said above - no bodges please, just a fix!

Most excellent dsimpkins​ - I shall give this a go.

Can't believe almost 6yrs later this topic has still not been actioned by Solarwinds. Clearly they don't look at these pages that often but just in case, BUMP.

Agreed. Though I know their answer is, just download and use the 30day trial. Sometimes though, you just need 45 days or more to try out complicated stuff without resorting to installing yet another trial version and setting it up as you'd like.

I was aware of the academy from our very eary days with Solarwinds but for my style of learning I need to be able to interact with the tutor and possibly students.As such I need to sign up to the live classes but, unfortunately find the time zone difference makes these a non-starter. As a consequence I haven't looked at…

Me also.... @"yumdarling" any chance of a reset for those of us on foreign soils and SolarWinds adjusts prices on the fly?

@"the_ben_keen" I don't see any mission survey link - what am I missing?

Day 3. All I'm going to say is read v.e.r.y. carefully all the answers before picking. I got it right, but not without some trepidation over whether I'd picked right or not.

@"kpina" Wondering why my Oct 28th entry was voided? I filled out the survey and got the green tick before logging off for the week due to holibobs. l Not overly bothered by the lack of points, but my OCD part does like to see all the green ticks.

Agreed - don't want to commit to ticks with two options being the same.

Also - an ability to duplicate and edit a map already created so as to easily replicate across a similar style estate without starting form scratch each time. This would then need to include the ability to replace a node on the page with another node.

@"yumdarling" whilst I care about the points, I care more that the mission shortcut directions DO NOT make any sense to me. The video link, on which you want us to 'leave a question' is still a part of Brighttalk, and so we still need to create an account with them to partake. Surely that isn't right? So, I ask again, how…

@"micheal100" any chance these groups of posts get completed? Also, post 3 appears to be missing.
