Outsourcing episode

I bet it will be how the hospital have just signed a new outsourcing deal with crapita. Only this turns around and bites them on the arse when 75% of the existing IT staff get sacked.

Hijinks ensue as the remaining staff try to fix all the IT problems

Don't think this through

The company l worked for at the time moved in a new building with a dedicated server room. The server room had a mixture of ups fed power and normal power sockets.

When we experienced out first power cut, due to someone digging up the power cable outside the building l went down to the server room to shut down the servers in an orderly fashion. As we had been informed it would take sometime for the electricity to be restored.

Small problem although all the servers were on a ups power feed none of the monitors or kvm's were. The clock was ticking as the ups battery only enough capacity 2 hours.

Trying to figure out where to find a ups power feed whilst only the emergency lighting was on was great fun. Diving behind racks and pedastals tracing back all the spaghetti.
