Yesterday we have been informed by one our clients that spring fever does not only exist among human beings but probably also among servers – to be more precise, among two of our servers located in our data center.<\/p>\n
The following has happened to the client’s server:<\/p>\n
Today we wanted to perform some renames over a mounted webDAV. Controlling the syslog I recognized that the main hobby of my server is the communication with another DHCP server.
\nMaybe the two servers were flirting with each other? In my opinion this is rather brazen without my consent, isn’t it \ud83d\ude42<\/strong>
\nCan you maybe give me a hint why my server behaves so strangely?<\/p><\/blockquote>\nThe request was not only amusing for our supporters, but also has encouraged them to think about the behavior of a server at the beginning of spring.
\nMaybe we should stop to consider servers merely as things and objects and should rather deal instead with their feelings in a serious way?<\/p>\nAnyway, a big thank you to our client who has approved the publication of his humerous description of a legitimate question that has caused loud laughter in our office.
\nOf course, we could find an appropriate solution for his request.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Yesterday we have been informed by one our clients that spring fever does not only exist among human beings but probably also among servers – to be more precise, among two of our servers located in our data center.
