    HS2 Railway

    Playing devil's advocate I wonder what people thought during the industrial revolution when mining was destroying the landacape , railways popped up everywhere and steam engines roared through england. Without all that what would Birmingham look like? As for property getting knocked down out in...

    New Solid State Drive

    couldn't do a hot swap so I had to shut it all down and move it. This has now been completed and the Hyper V and Site are now on the solid state drive, boot up to Hyper V went from 10 minutes to <1 minute.

    New Solid State Drive

    Reboot..just

    tracked down what was causing the outages it was the HYPER V backup, it was "supposed" to be a hot backup (doesnt take the site down) but it wasn't and as i back up twice a day now this was causing a system loop. Ive now replaced it with a new backup manager that explicitly uses hot backup...
