I checked out the new Alien Vs. Predator trailer online. WOW.
Not much going on this weekend. i got called into work yesterday because our Mail Cluster went down. Our backups have been all messed up, so the transaction logs were not getting cleared out. So Exchange managed to fill up a 36GB drive with about 5K log files. And of course the Assistant Director was trying to get his email and it wasn’t available, so many phone calls were made, and eventually the call was made to me to go in and fix it. I had to check the consistency of the Exchange Database and make sure all the logs had been committed, then I moved over 4GB of logs off of the drive then remounted the Mailbox Stores. Hopefully Monday I can get Veritas up and running and get the backups working so that the Trans logs will get completely cleared out. The sad thing is I called Headquarters to let them know that our servers were down, and they informed me that several other mail servers were down all across the domain. After I got the servers fixed I called HQ back to tell them that they could close the trouble ticket. The email administrator for the entire domain got on the phone and asked me what the problem was, and I explained, and then she asked me “Could this be the problem at the other sites?”. WTF. She is the email administrator for an entire domain, and she asks me if the problem I had was happening at the other sites. GRRRRRRRR.
Our TiVo is working out well. Last night I managed to get it connected to our home network, but I wanna go pick-up a wireless USB adapter, so I don’t have the ugly hardline ran across the living room floor.
I’m STARVING right now. All I have had to eat today was an oatmeal square and a Diet Dr. Pepper. Mmmmmm I need some pizza.
