I'm into my final countdown. I gave three weeks's notice since it matched up with my new start date. Today marks the end of week 2 however I spent the morning fully cleaning out my desk and setting personal things aside to go home today. My last real workday and day in the office is Monday!!!!! We have a yearly IT trip at Corp. HQ next week and since my flight/room/car was already booked they want me to go anyway. So travel Tuesday, meetings Wednesday/Thursday, and travel again on Friday!!! Best last week I've ever had! :rock: :woohoo: :partay:

But I have a large cutover this afternoon that they want done before I leave the company to make routing through both DC's fully redundant and active/active as well as layering in the WAN at both sites for the company that bought us earlier this year. Up to now the DC's have been a manual failover. So here's hoping there are no massive loops and/or foul ups on my part and that I properly planned all the pieces.

I spent 10/18 and 10/25 doing F5 cutovers/upgrades at 6:30AM.  I am spending this weekend doing nothing but having a friend visit and smoking some pork shoulder on my new Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5.  I am going to Sungard in Philadelphia, PA next week for a new hardware cutover and 11/8 is my last outage Sunday for the year.  Trying to get one set of ToR Cisco 4948's swapped for Cisco FEX'es.

my new Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5.

nice choice, very popular item.

I would recommend eventually getting a dual probe remote therm to monitor grill temps and internal meat temp.   makes life much easier.

Just finished week two of my three weeks notice with my boss telling me I will not be needed past today. So next week I will be unemployed and laying low! I figured how my week went that would be the case.

Weekend is going to be crazy with all the Halloween crap we have lined up for the kids. They will love it but at my expense.

Hopefully get some football in sunday and have a nice relaxing week next week. :cheers:

I start a 10 day vacation at COB today. Wife has to work this weekend, and next week. So I have nothing planned at all. Been kicking around the idea of starting a blog, and writing up the stuff I do in my lab. Maybe do that while I am off. Just can't find a good name to use yet.

http://www.tunnelsup.com/cisco-asa-troubleshooting-failover-when-failover-is-off came in handy when we saw duplicate damn MAC addresses on our ASAs when we were trying to fix HA...

Singapore is testing the new ASAs and the results are looking good. Traffic is flowing, so if there are any more problems...

I have a cheap single probe wireless remote right now but I think the wife is getting me an iGrill2 for Christmas.  I was able to do some really good pulled pork on Friday without having to work too hard.  Since it was my first smoke ever with charcoal, I thought I did pretty well.

Protip: cut them out and study in their place. It's the only way to get the damned certifications done.
Its amazing how much work you can get done if your l33t graphics card decides to fry itself on the month it goes out of warranty... I'll rejoin the PC master race when the time is right :rock:
