I was doing some routine monitoring when I saw... I saw systems in the cloud! Before I could drill down and get a closer look, the administrator issued an alert that the evil Empire of End-Users was threatening the health of the whole system.
THWACKsters, we have no choice but to go on an emergency mission to rescue as many applications, servers, and VMs that we can. We’ll take our upgraded ship, the SolarWinds
S.A.M., that will allow us to have visibility across cloud environments, so we won’t be flying blind.
I am no SysAdmin, but I know IT. It moves through and surrounds every living thing. Close your eyes... feel it... the light... IT has always been there... IT will guide you.
It’s THE LAST MISSION of the year. Use your new abilities and battle beyond your data center!

Hey guys, I hear your complaints about the shortcut and I am sorry that not all of you are able to participate because of your infrastructure. Since the shortcut is a bonus/ optional activity I suggest…
Friends, before answering questions and requesting a second chance when you get the answer wrong, please reference this area for Comments. Others may have found problems, and you'll have clues about what…
