Hey guys, I’ve been experiencing some issue with a new Cisco router I bought for my house (EA2700) seems that after a power outage it cannot gain public IP from the modem, so here is what I found out, might be useful for other people.
It’s been a while since my last post, this time I’ll try to document as many parameters as I can for the .server_config command from EMC. This command is used to configure parameters and read information directly from your Data Movers, for some reason it is not documented by EMC, I guess it is because …

As you might already know, Netbackup is not so friendly but it is so scalable, that is why so many companies chose Symantec for backup purposes. Netbackup has many, MANY processes and commands, and the …
In this post we will review some of the NetApp backend connectivity and hardware basics, like disk ownership, single path and multipath, partner cabling, etc. I decided to write this article since I’ve been working with NetApp for some time, but always managing them remotely, never had the chance to stand in front of one …
