So I just started a new job about a month ago, and one of the very first tasks I am going to be in charge of is cleaning up the data center.  Our current data center has around 50 physical servers, 3 SANs, and a whole slew of switches, routers and other networking equipment.  It has been a few years since the last reorganization of the Data Center, and as you can imagine, the twisting mass of orange, blue, yellow and gray has grown somewhat out of control.  Anyone with experience troubleshooting network problems knows that tracing cables through a spaghetti-like mess is very difficult and time

So it's been a few weeks, but I finally have the site back up and running again. Apparently, something happened at the hosting company and my database got corrupted. Even though I should know better (and I have learned), I did not have a backup of the original database, so here I am, right back at square one. I finally got to make some changes to the look and feel, and I will be adding a somewhat larger variety of content to the site in the coming weeks. So check back soon for more news, tips and tricks from the world of virtualization, networking and security.
