What Are You Doing Right Now

@MattSpeller Yeah, the IT watchdogs appliance also has the ability to add water/flood sensors. I have one of those connected too. That scenario would be one of the worst. Fortunately, we don't have freezing winters here.
I need to look into a water one, our server room location is.... less than optimal from a plumbing rupture standpoint.
We do our temp sensors through our UPS, might have room for another module......

In case anyone is wondering. I have the older, not-quite-as-butch-sounding, WeatherGooseII. When Geist bought them, they changed the name to watchdog 1200. Pretty much the same thing, from everything I can see.

Just back from an amazing dinner.

Zoho docs has dropbox integration. It's pretty nice.
-
Researching local log servers, need a free solution. Not tied to any particular OS, we have licenses for Windows Server if needed.

@MattSpeller What kind of logging in particular?

Fortigate logs, windows server logs, linux server logs, UPS logs too hopefully

Maybe some exchange logging too for bonus points

@MattSpeller Here is an interesting solution called LogStash.
A linux based build that will collect all of your logs in a central location and give you an easy to search web console.

You use LogStash as part of ELK, not on its own. Whenever we mention ELK, that's what we are talking about. NTG uses ELK.

The set up tutorial will need to be changed because they don't use logstash-forwarder any longer, it's now file beat.

Here's a full list of their products:

You can use Elasticsearch and Kibana without Logstash to track a lot of different types of information, but for logging you need all three.

Just started cloning the backup server off of my ProxMox server. It'll be moved to the new XenServer. Then I get to install XenServer instead of ProxMox, and get HALizard setup, woo!

Tried to sleep in this morning but my four year old wanted to wake us up so that she could play video games. We were winning until randomly the slats fell out of our bed.... so pretty awake after that.

Still working on my Win10 and Win7 VM's ready for FOG deployment
-
Upgraded the image embedding plugin this morning, nothing too exciting. But you'll need to refresh your browsers.

This post on fake MS Agents is pretty funny: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1398552-delaying-tactics

The summer weather seems to have disappeared. It's cold and raining. Not New York or Canada cold, just highly unusual.
-
Cold and rainy here, too. Although this morning it is bright sun. Still chilly, though, we have the heat on.
