Just stopped by to let you GR guys know that we needed to do some emergency maintenence on our New York server a little bit ago. Hence your TS server was down for a short bit :cry:
Server is back online and all set. Sorry for the downtime 🙁
Hey man, No problem! We're thankful your letting us use it.
Patches? Atomm and myself know ALL about that. Thankfully i goofed on our WSUS server at work and had it autodeploying all patches last week instead of me testing and approving.. :-)
Patches aren't bad. Just set Win Update to download them and prompt you when they are ready to install. As for tonights issue, it was a bit more involved. Ever since a windows update about 3 weeks ago we have been getting disk errors. And to compound matters our provider took theior DNS server down for repairs earlier today, so the poor box was lost when trying to reach the outside world.
Luckily everything worked out for the best and it's back online and happy once again 🙂
I wish it was that easy. We have so many custom app's that we have to test everything before installing it on our servers. In other cases, we have to make ghost copies before patching just it case everything fubars.
The desktops are easy..... Servers are a whole nother animal....
Thanks for letting us know. I figured something was up.
I am fortunate enough to have any and all critical software installed on my machine, if I install a patch on my machine and all work I can then deploy it. I was just setting up WSUS this week, got sick of running around my office.

Yeah I am still toying with the idea, it's certainly not a need of my office, just might save me some time. Lately saving a minute here or there is awesome. Too busy lately with no signs of letting up. Don't even know when I last played bf2
