Not in ed setting but... that Blaster worm and big power outage summer
2003 made us hop to it and become more proactive.

Deploying Windows patches and updates
Upgrading workstations OS ( and servers too) 
Making sure Vscan is up to date
New UPS admin software
Updated IOS on WAP and Switches 

Print server redundancy ( and DNS entry. For DFS too)
Working on SQL server redundancy 

Yes it keeps us busy and we still have the regular helpdesk calls and
special projects. We are over worked too.


PS Being proactive means less OT.

Subject: [windows2000] Proactivity

Does anyone here (besides me) work in an educational/K-12 setting?
Namely, public education...

My boss just sent an agenda out for a meeting, and the biggest part of
it is determining how to be proactive about a lot of things around the
district... while that's not a bad idea, I'm wondering how he's planning
on pulling that off, when every knowledgeable person in my department
has enough of a workload for three people. Going beyond that, I've
worked with most of the other school districts in our area, and none of
them appear to be proactive at all... and employees that I've spoken to
in other districts agree.

<sigh> I know I probably shouldn't even send this message out, but what
the hell... I haven't got anything to lose at this point.

Thoughts?

Andrew
