Tidy server room

2010-07-29 (16:48:53)
Today was a mixture of productivity. In one respect: we managed to start rolling machines out into areas where we need to replace units; We recreated the MS Forefront server and switched from virtual to physical with fairly minimal upset (once we found where everything is located in menus nowadays!); We started creating all the domain policy settings; Finished tidying the server room and moved the last big items from one site to the other. All these things are good happy-thought items.
In other respects, there's still so much to do and even though we're working hard, my brain is so tired at the minute, I just don't feel like I'm running anywhere near as fast as I should.

Installed some programming bits on the mac to start creating some new code chunks. Got the update service running nicely on the mac to for the mac network. That's kinda cool too.
Lots of shifting and moving to do tomorrow and WDS to install on a new 2008 server and replicate the XP image over to from the old one.
Must remember to parcel up the equipment for Aliz too that has been decomissioned. Sure he'll find good use for this old hardware with his new Fuzzer.
Nice to see Matthew's server room has had a makeover like mine too. Must be the season for network administrators to modify their territory!
