18 Character Limit posted:Texas makes a decent DR location for this same reason too. We had similar logic when doing our DR plan. It relies heavily on azure being available, but if a disaster is big enough to take out the West US region and our corporate headquarters, we’ll have other concerns.

A ticket came in: "I don't think the <device> is communicating with the DC. We can't login." I ask what the error is. "Authentication failed"

I use YYYYMMDD in my comments if it's absolutely necessary that I get across exactly when I did a thing without any confusion. Otherwise I use MMDDYYYY.

I use yyyymmdd everywhere all the time, often broken up by /, even though the standard here is dd.mm.yyyy, because gently caress that noise that doesn't sort

A friend of mine once talked about an old job where he had been tasked with coming up with a file naming scheme that encoded the date of each file as part of its filename... in 8.3 format. To conserve space in the filename, he used a single letter for the month, like a = January, b = February, etc. I told him "That doesn't take into account years with more than 26 months in them." The split nanosecond where he actually thought about it and a look of alarm flashed over his face—it made the subsequent shoulder-check into the bushes worth it

Proteus Jones posted:Is this a one hand clapping kind of thing? We have some of the hardware, and can our core application from there, because the people who run that have the budget for that. Even if we had the hardware, its not a full DR situation as a lot of poo poo is hardcoded to specific addresses, so routes have to be manually changed. The problem is, we simply can't get the buy in from senior management to get the tools, the time or the expertise to fix it. poo poo, we are growing so fast we can barely keep on things now. And the expansion never stops.

But that will come to screeching halt if you have catastrophe strike. I’m not sure how easily it can be done, but the best ammunition you have is to present the revenue impact on the company due to an inadequate BC plan. If you can get someone in finance to supply the numbers, you could probably put together a convincing business case if you frame it in lost revenue per day.

User reported "the internet is slow", and sent a screenshot of their speedtest results as proof. Well, it's certainly slow in one direction... As it turns out the provider and IP don't match either of the lines we provide on site, both of which appear to be working fine, so who knows what mystery connection they were using!

Okay so the last two times we did this upgrade during the overnight maintenance window, everything went tits up and we had to roll it back. But certainty this time will be better, so let's do it at noon on a Friday What can possibly go wrong??

Heh. Had a request come in to clean up a couple security groups that had people who'd transferred positions, so once I finished, I emailed them and said "I've deleted the security groups as asked. Wait, no, I've deleted FROM the security groups as asked." They're a good sport, so after their heart calms down, they should laugh.

A couple of days ago the CIO was in the next row over, discussing an issue with the operations people where office applications are crashing randomly, probably due to last months lovely patches. Felt so good to know that dealing with it was definitely Not My Problem, I did my time with desktop management.
