Moving on

Today is my last working day in Novell. 

What next? The Wedding.

ZENworks(R) Configuration Management with Support Pack 1 (SP1)

Hurray! One more Happy news to share. Novell ZCM SP1 is released. Its out with flying colors.
Finally! We got something to smile for. :-) :-) :-) Great to be part of this team.

Novell - IDC, Bagmane

Its official now! Novell, Software Development (I) Pvt Ltd has moved to a new facility in Bagmane Tech park, C.V. Raman Nagar, Bangalore. It had been a long wait for all of us to move to Bagmane. Finally the reckless and dusty Hosur road can be avoided finally. We are few among those who have opted to move into the city from outside the city.

The President and CEO Ron Hovsepian and other executives like Kent, Joe and many others came down to inaugurate the new facility. Ron gave a key note followed by other executives. There was an employees Q&A where the last question from Abi was on "Do's and Don't as a CEO?". Ron finally ended his note with few words from his mom, "You got two ears and one mouth, so use them proportionately!" Then a fantastic effort to capture all Novell geeks and nerds in a single frame. It turned out to be fun capturing all in a single photo outside the facility.

In brief, Bagmane office is cold, spacious, pleasant with vibrant colors, neatly designed cubicles, more than enough cupboard space, aerial view (I sit on 7th floor), food courts and most important of all not so much crowed as the Hosur road. A welcome change in daily work. Thanks to all those who have been behind in making this happen.

Got to go now, many things to burn down.

Energy Conservation - Update

I wonder if the Infrastructure maintenance team here in Novell, Bangalore just read my blog post on Energy Conservation. OMG - There was a complete black out in our office around 6:45 :-) First the lights went off, then bamm every system, monitor, phone got powered off. Every inch was dark.

I could hear everyone cursing! I can hear ppl saying, "Oh God - I din save it. Finally I can stop working. Go home. You cant even call anyone, even the Phone is gone!" When things resumed and went off again think what my neighbor would do! :-)

But still, "To Err is Human..."
