altivoTalk about dodging live ammunition and dashing for cover. After just one day off I came in to work to find my desk covered, the big five user public internet machine down and unbootable, complaints about printers and various other stuff not working, and the climate control in the library once more gone bonkers, with part of the building being heated well into the 86F range while another area was only in the 60s. At least I don't have to deal with the last one.
Hard drive appears to have crashed on the internet shared system, though. This is not going to be popular with users unless we get it back quickly. Vendor insisted that I run dban and try to reload everything to make sure it was the hardware that failed. Running dban took all day, it was still verifying when I left.
Printing issues were caused by some of Microsoft's patches rolled out last week. Fortunately they could be uninstalled.
At least the web site updates were pretty straightforward, and gave me something to do while waiting for dban to finish. The stuff covering my desk was mostly cataloging, which did not all get finished today, but more than half of it did.
Spinning along, hoping to break the one mile marker for the first month of our little friendly competition here. All day drizzle at least showed that the Rain-X applied to my windshield yesterday was in fact functional, though a little heavier coat might be better.
