Oh, the pain

What a great start to the day. Oh, look out, make sure you don’t slip on the pool of sarcasm that’s dripping off that last statement…

I’m still at home at the moment, having been called on my way and sent back home to try and work out what’s going on with all of our customers’ sites. It transpires that the people we host our DNS with (DSVR) have a problem with their DNS servers. Oh joy.

Fortunately, after yesterday’s early start for a migration for another customer, I got a good night’s sleep. The same can’t be said for my boss unfortunately, who was woken up by the monitoring alerts that I slept through and was trying to fix various problems throughout the night. The fact that I slept through them isn’t a problem – as she pointed out to me on the phone this morning, I don’t get paid to do that.

Ooh, the sun’s just come out. Good, the weather was looking really crappy until now. Right, off to the office. I may be clairvoyant, but I sense an emergency DNS hosting migration on the horizon….
