I am laughing.... my value will be determined after my vacation. I am taking 23 days to whitewater raft the Colorado River thru the Grand Canyon. No TECHNOLOGY !!! A SAT phone to call if we have a human emergency, not for calling in to check or supporting my job!! I am trying to get everyone ready; it will be "neat" to…

i finally got around to testing ... really like the tool.. thanks for sharing!!

oops .. sorry @"kpina" .. now don't everyone start telling that you have the same issue .. I be a moronie ... sorry . I should have sent a DM!

I totally agree.

BAM!!! Nail on the head! I was just having a similar conversation with my outside engineer. I truly believe in the hybrid solution; you are now tasked to do more with less, but you need to make sure that the cost to do business does not outweigh the value of the service provided.

Got Me!!

I could have sworn I hit the F word today .. and got the question wrong ... perhaps it was just my eyes.... THANKS FOR THE MISSION!!

You hit the nail on the head!!!! I am a Grateful Deadhead! I am working on my retirement clothing! 

I'm thrilled to return from a trip and find such wonderful news! It truly is an honor and a privilege to be part of this incredible community. Congratulations to all the new MVPs! My success is a direct reflection of the support and inspiration I receive from both this community and the amazing folks at SolarWinds. THWACK…

What about the phenomenal community called THWACK!

KC has great BBQ and Great Blues Music!!! Not kidding at all!!! I am in for KC 2024!!! OK .. I am in for SWUG 2024 wherever it may be!!!! 

I feed your pain! Been there myself! 

Or perhaps I should say spelling!

Man... I am going to miss this one too!!! We are in the middle of an application upgrade; TOGETHER WE CAN! @"ChrystalT" I had a dream with you in it the other night. We were at a SWUG and I got ditched by you and the others because I was too obnoxious! I woke up and the nightmare ended! I am really starting to think London…

The hint was missing for me today ... use Google .. it is your friend!!!!

I need ALSO to mention .. for the smaller guys.. or for the business savvy folks. Get with a vendor that has purchased reserved instance - AWS is cheaper when you buy in bulk. I am not here to press any one vendor. For instance, check out the vendor named Presidio:

I noticed the fluctuation in traffic after we killed the General in Iran. Due to that single situation, I am blocking one by one, each and every Country that is attempting to hit my network. I know that the real threats come from here in the US, but it makes me feel better blocking Regions of the world that have no…

You forgot .. Other ... perhaps I might just try one this year!! 

Yeah... seems like I keep getting re-tries to answer this question ... but I keep getting it wrong!!!! I just laugh ... I was out of the competition a long time ago ... I am not getting over emotional like last month!!! I think I was taking the competition too seriously!!!! You know.. competitive people make the best…

Thanks again!!!

Awesome info - I have added this to some cool documentation that I am perpetually gather in order to better explain technology to management. I have absolutely all aspects of our environment virtualized..I would like to consider it to be a very smart HCI; unbelievable easy to manager and adapt to the "lack of poor planning…

One more slight criticism ... my NOC mode stays up just fine, but my session on my desktop times out and requires me to sign back in .. oh my, I think I need to adjust a setting! I am so amazed at this upgrade! Unbelievably simple, and no real issues! I have fixed the map, and I am sure that in the next 5 minuets, I will…

I really like how you worded it above .... intended destinations ... do you know how many times we have to run towards a "project" with no final destination .... on a whim ... it wastes valuable time and money! Rewards these days are far and few between... we need to change this mind set ... we need to stop the ... every…

I ended up sending this to our whole staff. After you read this, YOU TOO will have confidence!

I am so bummed... I got out of the groove ... building a new 911 facility ... I almost hit 50 K in my first 6 months of THWACK ... I miss my daily stimulation ... now I only get to visit you all about once ever other week. Will be glad when construction is done!!! I need a THWACK break! I should break 50 K this month ...…

Go Blues Brothers!!! There's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark out, and we're wearing sunglasses.

I did not realize that I was behind on the articles!!! You picture of grilling reminded me of my college days!!! I love the article about 240 minutes - I have recently committed to adding an additional 2 hours in my day. I get up at 4:30 AM now, I exercise and .. as my favorite philosopher... Phillsophophy once said...…

I think I just added those to my list!
