One of my ex colleagues has suggested that I should have brought a Sombrero to my new employment, well he was right. As I have explained the job here is to close the data centre and relocate any required systems and applications to France, this is a simple run of the mill job – although it does have to be planned. So with that in mind and as I’ve now been here for two full weeks, I’ve just completed the initial setup of all the PGP keys and the SSH configurations – many of these are tied to MAC addresses, IP Addresses and Firewall configurations. The testing will now have to be postponed, the French office is relocating and provisioning new hardware so all the planning and discovery will have to be redone.
So here two weeks and I’m learning the French version of the Mexican hat dance. The issue of the Three Amigo’s Sombrero goes to – the bloke what let me do all the work, knowing that most of it would have to be redone before I got to the testing bit!
