gah server death
This space is where instructions for Ubuntu install of the Backup Exec agent would go if the server had not died on me yet again. Time to use one of the G4 chassis (grumble grumble)
Thou shalt not fail
Still doing battle with the damnable Backup Server. Backup Exec is up and running now and it’s pulling and getting things to tape, but the drives in the server still like to flake on me. I think using one of the older G3s for this process might not have been the best thing and eventually […]
joost
I don’t suppose anyone out there is sitting on a Joost invite they just don’t know what to do with and would be willing to get me in.
back back up exec

Clean it up, clean it up
It’s been a crazy last few weeks but the server move has gone off fairly well. I managed to move all of the uclick servers in one weekend from our old facility to the new one. In the mix I managed to change internal IPs of all of our servers which at current count sits […]
