Just found a great blogpage that keeps an overview over SQL version, updates, builds etc. Check it out here: http://sqlserverbuilds.blogspot.no/ Short cuts for some useful articles, as this blogpage lists: How to identify your SQL Server version and edition SQL Server Internal Database Versions Microsoft SQL Server Support Lifecycle Microsoft SQL Server Home Microsoft SQL Server Developer Center Microsoft TechNet: Microsoft SQL Server Microsoft Knowledge Base Sqlservr.exe versions

I just came over this page  that has good info about windows (vista/7/8/2008/2012/..) boot record problem solving.

Just found a nice forum post that keeps track of Intel's RST/RSTe drivers. I'm a bit sceptical since I can't find the latest version on Intel.com but thought I'd post the link here so I can go back later and have a look. It might be legit, it might not.

As an update to my old post on a few SysAdmin tools, I just did some searching for SysAdmin inventory tools and accounting and found the following I'd like to check our some day: http://www.spiceworks.com/welcome/ http://www.ocsinventory-ng.org/en/ http://www.opsi.org/en http://www.fusioninventory.org/overview/ http://www.glpi-project.org/?lang=en http://www.manageengine.com/ http://www.kaseya.com/ http://www.racktables.org

It's unbelievable that QNAP still doesn't support multiple VLANs on a single bond0 interface via GUI when they now just released the QTS v4.1.0 NAS Operation System for QNAP. The underlying Linux OS (QTS) does support it, and there should at least not be any problems with Intel chipsets. Some are reporting problems with Marvell.. but I haven't tried. I wanted to use the QNAP as a iSCSI storage for my LAB using a second interface while having full redundancy and get max bandwith (2x1GbE) for my ESXi hosts, and I didn't want that interface routed. At the same time I of course need the possibility to manage the QNAP system via the main interface, which is routed. This CLI "hack" will at configure the QNAP for a second VLAN interface that will be persistent during reboots. It's not been verified that it works after an upgrade of the firmware, but I presumed it will. To get this to work I presume you already have the following working: Network onfigured...
