What Are You Doing Right Now

Our doctor's office just emailed us to tell us that 2+ years of medical records were lost because they weren't testing backups. They kept getting a "your backup was successful" message, but no one looked to see if that was true.
So not only did they totally lose their medical records system (um, really?) but they don't have working backups.

Most small doctors offices use hobby IT at best

They must have been using Backup Exec.

Did you miss our thread of evaluating Zimbra vs. Kopano? Kopano went down in flames. Most clear cut product evaluation I've ever seen. I got to be the number two contributor, of all time in their community just trying to get a single useful answer from them today. We have the busiest thread that they have ever had, ever... and three more in the top ten or fifteen all time threads... all in one day. And ML had more posts about their product in one day than they've had... ever!

wow, sounds like they lost their whole system. Most likely backups have never worked since they installed their EHR 2+ years ago.

Hope that all is well (other than the teeth!)

Not that I don't hope that the teeth are well...

Well I am happy that the Ubuntu 16.04 to 16.10 upgrade went off without a hitch.
Because I clicked checkpoint on the wrong machine.. I just went in to remove the checkpoint and there was not one there!

Getting NethServer 7.0 RC3 uploaded so that I can start playing with it.
Scott, I was curious on how your testing with NethServer went. I have previously tested it as well and it was nice. Community was lively as well as helpful. I was curious on your impressions.

My Google-Fu is stronger than usual today...

I'll hold my hands up on this too, we are terrible and testing.
But that's about to change as i'm reviewing our entire backup and testing procedures over the next month or two.

We check all customers backups every week, and the majority get a test restore done at least once a month too, just to be on the safe side - so might be worth doing test restores as well - no good making sure the backup works if you're unable to restore the data if it does die!

Got caught up in other projects, it's still sitting waiting for me

Back in the server room cleaning and sorting for a few hours
