Back from vacations, lesson learned

They were good, really good, at least from a personal point of view. They were …

They were good, really good, at least from a personal point of view. They were bad, really bad, from a technical point of view. Basically, I was able to enjoy some really good vacations because a failure in my way to synchronise my data prevented me to work and correctly perform technical support. I will slowly answer again your questions within the next few days, please be patient.

So, I learned something to not reproduce these failures in the future, the something is:

  • Ensure to stop working with my desktop tools and switch to the laptop at least 3 days before leaving;
  • Setup a web based technical support area to be able to answer even on the go through my mobile phone or a crappy GPRS connection;
  • Get a general status page where you can see the status of the systems in real time;
  • Get better status of the servers integrated in the general status page.

So, a big part of that will be performed this week, then I will work again on Indefero 2.

Update: Still some lag, still 154 unread emails in my inbox. Arg! With the very slow holiday WE, I suppose I will be able to have everything back in order.
