Well, I'm sitting in one of the server rooms at Bethel right now, and it's actually sorta quiet. We shut most of the stuff down, and it's just a placeholder server (keep a basic "stuff is down" up for all web servers) and the network equipment up. Lots of complaining UPSes though. The funny part is walking down the ITS office is louder than the server rooms because of all the beeping (the server rooms have big UPSes with a distinctive beep that gets attention but isn't annoying, but the offices all have little ones beeping away like crazy). If all goes well things should be up in a bit over an hour, and hopefully we can get stuff up quickly and I can go home and get some sleep. Bill Buchanan just stopped in too. Sounds like it's a late but relatively smooth night so far - no issues have come up.

Nothing too interesting. No big attacks or anything. After work has basically been sitting around relaxing. Did rebuild 3 servers, two of them with Ross, so we got time to chat. That was nice. Did hit up Eddingtons for lunch on Friday, which was nice. Haven't been there for a long time.

Well, it's getting hot in here (most equipment is shut down, but with no AC it still gets hot quickly even with the door open). Over 80 on the cool side of the room. I think I'm gonna go walk around campus for a bit or something.
