@nadnerB Hahaha. I saw that original bubble graphic the other day but didn't read up on it, I did think though, what, here we go with WA's stupid succession stuff again
That was pretty funny.
How's your job mate, secure or not sure??

Yeah, WAxit has been. We're now Westeroz
Job's secure, as my place is 'essential'... although I do feel like a bit like this:
How's things over your side? other than the dreary weather?

My morning. Dropping equipment off at a sheriff's office, and deploying 2 computers at 2 different locations. We'll see if it remains just "morning"
-
More fun times with Teams, Outlook, and Cisco AMP.
-
@EddieJennings One of those things is not quite like the others; one of those things is not quite the same
-
Coffee and misc. duties. Not very focused this morning.

None of those sound like any fun to me
-
WFH water usage...Damn....
-
RHCSA objectives practice.
-
@Texkonc Bad read, or toilet flapper not sealing. We have had both. Check your meter vs. bill. Replace flappers, they are cheap.

Yeah, quiet, very strange. I've lost some income but not too bad. My main client has been rock solid, I've been very lucky.

friday morning. cold air and dreary grey clouds everywhere.

@Texkonc woke up the other morning a few weeks back to find a garden tap had let go overnight. drain out the front full of water.
-
Working out the logistics of adding a WI-fi ISP for fail over of phones and data. Both of our current ISP's come into the building on the same pole..... We are in an industrial area...... Telephone poles on corners are snacks for semi tractor trailers.....

It's another video editing day for me. But just got some work scheduled at 7:30PM, so I'm earning my keep today, too.
-
Time for another coffee.

Fighting a large outage we have been having all week! Bad timing!
I did not even know this was possible, but our UPS had a large failure on Monday and sent a surge to back end hardware. I thought the point of UPS was to protect end hardware from network surges, but hey... it happened.
We lost the UPS, two switch stacks (core and edge) each having three switches, two old blade chassis with 16 servers in each and a load of old fc and iscsi SANs, and one new server host. We have gone from 35 servers (32 blade servers and 3 standalone servers) to only 2 standalone servers. Luckily though our backups are rock solid.
We have been planning to remove the blades for about 3 months and get a new UPS for 3 months! Really bad timing. The hardware that replaces everything that failed...... is due for delivery on Monday!
Getting there though. Currently fighting one host of the three newer ones to spread the load.
But yeah, fun week!

That's a pretty rare failure, but I have seen it happen once before. Not on gear that large though.

Of course it's not supposed to happen, and even try to protect against it - but yeah, nothing like this would ultimately surprise me - it's power after all, and if it's connected, anything can happen
