Work Work Work

Back at work, building our SAP Business Objects production infrastructure. I have automated as much as possible, so it will be easier to manage later down the road.

I wish SAP would actually produce valid documentation, nowhere did I find the actual database permissions the installer needed to complete the install. I ended up having to give the DBA_ALL role, which slightly scares me.  If you cannot document the permissions your application needs then you are doing something wrong.

I do have some light at the end of the tunnel, I have scheduled a vacation to Key Largo for some scuba diving in the next few week. It will be a needed break.

Springtime!

Springtime is upon us. I just finished planting a some fruit trees so we can have some jam and jelly in a few years.

Onto the next project: I want to clean up the area under our deck. Since the deck is at least 10 feet off the ground and difficult to mow with the riding mower, I plan to kill the grass and put down some ground cloth. I have not decided what I want to put down on the ground cloth, but I have it narrowed down to rubber mulch (made from recycled tires) or some type of rock/pebbles.

Mostly because I do not like using the trimmer under there and the dogs need a place to lay when they are outside.
