@EddieJennings That's a small whoops.

I hate making errors. Brought our website down for 4 minutes due to a misidentified power cable. >(Ooops.
-
@DustinB3403 It is in the scheme of things. I just hate making dumb mistakes like that. However, on a positive note. When I return tomorrow to swap our backup drives, I'll have my label maker with me, so this error shouldn't happen again.

Good stuff.
I'll be working on cleaning up my server room and cable tying things neatly away in a few days.

Still syncing archives offsite while planning phone system upgrades, and checking email.
I've got 3 systems around me right now, a MacBook Air, a Windows 10 desktop, and a Korora Live USB running on a Carbon X1.
I feel kind of spoiled at the moment
-
The Korora Live is doing the offsite sync, cause of stupidly long file paths. . . . so yeah. . . syncing that using the console.
-
So many TB of old files that need to get pushed off site. . . .
Weeks worth to upload.
-
@DustinB3403 Ya, I'm trying to get the boss to order gigabit u/d fiber service so a single server backup offsite doesn't take days
-
@momurda oh I'm pulling off of USB's we have decent internet. Not gig, but decent.

At the dentist, lost a filling. Fortunate my dentist has evening hours and was available.

Old application that apparently requires the environment it's in. I'm not a dev for it, so I cannot give a "why"

Logically a dev couldn't tell you "why" either as nothing on the dev side would influence hosted or not hosted. That's purely on the infrastructure side.

I'm about to head back to the convention. It's dinner time.

You're probably right. I don't touch our web application; thus, I know not its requirements. I'll take a look at the build script it uses sometime and see if I can glean some information as to why it requires (if it requires) our environment.

By "your environment" are you referring to your LAN or are you referring to the system build that it is running on?
-
@scottalanmiller Both. The system it runs on. The system that hosts the database it uses, and the LAN that connects them.

It's a general purpose database that does other things AND the website?

OMG, this person wants to newly deploy a Pentium IV "server" that wasn't even a real server when it was new like 17 years ago!! And they want to run 2008 R2 in a new deployment as well.

No. Database is just for the website. Box 1 is IIS that runs a .net application (that's basically the business) which talks to a SQL server database (Box 2) as well as a SMTP server (Box 3, which also runs REDIS and our backup software).
