I wanted to write a PowerShell script to check all the documents back in that had been checked out. Turns out that is not as straight forward as I had hoped. First search came up with this: Office Discarding Check Out Using PowerShell Then when I tried to run the command (from the server console,… Continue reading SharePoint Documents are all checked out
SharePoint Recycle Bin
I mentioned earlier (here) that we are clearing some old data out of a SharePoint site. Aside from the various client side issues with trying to do that, you also have to figure out how to clean up SharePoint. SharePoint has a multi-tier Recycle Bin. There is a pretty good article about how it works… Continue reading SharePoint Recycle Bin
Moving data out of SharePoint
We have a SharePoint site that we used to store some data. It was used at remote locations to be able to “map a drive” and interact with data. There is some old data in the site now, and we needed to move it off. I hadn’t messed with it in a while and forgot… Continue reading Moving data out of SharePoint
New Favicon for my site
So in a previous life, I spent time in the Navy. I was a Machinist Mate, in the Nuclear Power Program. That history, my tendency to (over) analyze things and the fact that my name is Michael all let to the name of this site. (Nuke it Mike). This site is not (currently, or planned… Continue reading New Favicon for my site
2015 Interests Update
I said here that I wanted to get to 175 (from 148) and I have made it to 154 (if you count this post). I am sure that is right on track. The next post that I wrote (after my post count) was a list of things I wanted to work on (or that I… Continue reading 2015 Interests Update
Operations Manager 2012 R2 Management Pack Dependencies
I am not proficient at managing Ops Manager. I am at best a competent tinkerer. I have been needing to do some clean up on our Ops Manager installation, and clear some management packs that are not used, or just used to generate noise that we subsequently ignore. That is a bit of an annoying… Continue reading Operations Manager 2012 R2 Management Pack Dependencies
Upgrade of System Center Operations Manager Server OS
Our Operations Manager installation is an upgrade from 2007 through (currently) 2012 R2. The operating system was Server 2008 R2. I like to stay current, so I was interested in figuring out how to upgrade to Server 2012 R2. When I did a search on it, I found that there were recommendations on how to… Continue reading Upgrade of System Center Operations Manager Server OS
The Good and the Bad of Microsoft Ignite (IMHO)
I have been attending a Microsoft conference each year since 2003. (I think I missed one year because of a child being born close to the same time as the conference.) Until last year, the conference that I went to was the Microsoft Management Summit (MMS). I am an infrastructure guy so that conference seemed… Continue reading The Good and the Bad of Microsoft Ignite (IMHO)
Goals (or interests) for this year
I said I want to make it to 175 posts (from 148 posts). I have been thinking (for at least 5 minutes) that one way to do that is to write about some of the things that I want to work on. Then I could share my progress, as well as the lessons learned from… Continue reading Goals (or interests) for this year
Blogging–the New Begining
Pretty dramatic title isn’t it? I am posting this mostly in a humorous (to me) attempt to get myself blogging again. I have had a blog for several years (6? 7?), but I don’t blog very much. I think the stats say I have 148 posts. Maybe I can make it to 200 by the… Continue reading Blogging–the New Begining
