... it's 3am - and here I am standing in front of a server rack in a secure collocation facility - just me, the server op behind the bulletproof glass and a security guard out front...
By myself I have built, racked, wired and installed/configured a new Win2K Active Directory, SQL server, Web server, and 5 Citrix Metaframe systems.
That's 13 Compaq/HP rackmount DL380 G3's in all - with 1.5TB of SANstorage..
Architected and designed the AD, DFS layout, user environment - the entire security structure - group policies, backup processes, anti-virus components and database server - configured the Citrix servers - installed and configured the apps.
Now you may think "Big freaking deal" - except this has all been done from the ground up - over the last 6 days - and has got to go live for paying customer access on Monday...
I like my "geek time" to be under pressure and a deadline...
Did I mention I am always called in at the last second to deliver "the impossible" - $$ 8) $$ - the best time to join a project is when it is already behind schedule and needs to be delivered - at any cost...
With pre-config, setup and post-op work are all said and done - whould be around 200 hours...
***** Your will now be returned to our regular scheduled programming ******
What I have been playing with all week....
