Helpline / Re: Crowdstrike anyone?
Last post by Sherry Burrell - July 19, 2024, 11:55:11 AM
Most of our users are down, but a few have gotten in. We do have users in multiple states so maybe that's the difference.  Both browser and desktop users are down.

Received email from Applied at 8:42am this morning regarding Crowdstrike and an issue "affecting the majority of our customers."  Does that mean everyone's online TAM or Epic is not working?  Yeesh!

I know AMS is down.
I know it's affecting Applied but not specifically what.
Intermedia VoIP is working but backend stuff is down.

Most VoIP phone systems have something to do this... as does Teams.

It's been a while, and I dont know what it was about the TAM IN/OUT but I really like it !

You dodged a bullet there on the RAID 5.  2 drives lost on most RAID5 arrays = complete failure!  Depending on the setup and if you have the physical space, you can often times have the spare in the server and on standby and then when failure occurs the RAID will disable the bad drive and bring the spare online.

For those who are still looking, this one appears to be pretty good:  ONLYOFFICE

ONLYOFFICE.COM should get you there.  It now includes PDF editing.  So far it has done well with my Excel spreadsheets. 

I don't link to TAM anyway so nothing was lost there.

Helpline / Re: TAM ON WIN10
Last post by Hans Manhave - June 26, 2024, 05:09:35 PM
Finally, after four years or more.  Found the teeny little tick box to undo.  It was known to be a TAM activity thing, but where and how? 

Tools, user setup options, settings, timer setup, update open activity = uncheck this (or possibly give it some huge interval that I don't care to try out).

This does appear to get TAM2014 to not error out constantly on Windows10 (and Win2K8R2 server).

I may have to revisit this, but so far it has continued to work.  I guess if one's day depends on open activities, this may not be a great solution.


Quote from: Hans Manhave on July 29, 2020, 05:45:29 PMYet one more issue.  Possibly a network interface problem?  "Could not read at least 8 bytes at offset 0 in "G:\TAM\TFILE_W.NDX": Error 59: An unexpected network error occurred.

The card does not go to sleep, neither does the computer, no screen saver.  I set the network card speed to 1Gb up/down instead of "auto". 

Anything else to adjust?  I have no idea yet if the above has now fixed it.  It seems to happen when the user is away from the terminal.

Problem corrected.  Two RAID5 drives replaced.  One dead, one about to be dead.  Have another spare ready when needed.  RAID1 is fine, but also now have a spare for it.

This is an iDRAC 6 Express v.1.54.  :)

It lists Batteries, Fans, Intrusion, Power Supplies, Temperatures, Voltages.  All those pass. 

I opened the front lid of the unit and it appears that one drive is permanently on the blink (literally blinking!).  It appears to be drive #5 out of five.

Guess I best find out what drive model it is and see about acquiring a good one promptly.

I believe these things are hot swappable.
