Inventory
Topic: work
These past few weeks, I've tried using two hardware inventory systems from sourceforge.

The automated scripts used by winventory proved to be much more convenient for me, although I think I'd modify the system (or ask the author/s to modify it) to include serial numbers (manually entered) for all hardware.

I'll be going to our PC's one by one in the coming days so that I can finalize my inventory. :-)

Teller interview
Topic: i-Solv Project
Sir Jing Agito came and interviewed the tellers on their tasks. Assisted him for about an hour or so.

Data Migration
Topic: i-Solv Project
After several futile tries on our workstations, I finally copied the backup files to the server so I could locally restore them using the LOAD DATA INFILE command.

I created the script file in the morning, tested it, and let it run after office hours.

Data migration
Topic: i-Solv Project
Since the server-to-server transfer failed last night, we tried to restore it using the bcms.exe provided.
It was restoring TOO FAST.

It looks like the data really needs to be restored locally on the server. :-(

So I left my notebook running the server-to-server transfer again in the evening, but it still would choke on the large tables.

Rico's PC itself would run out of memory when we tried it yesterday.

BCMS
Topic: i-Solv Project
Maricel and Rico tried to test the .exe, and they ran into trouble when they tried to compute a bill.

Mr. De Leon sympathized with i-Solv's woes and decided to give them half of the second installment. The other half will be paid to them when he's "impressed" with the delivered executable.

Data Migration
Topic: i-Solv Project
Finally, they arrived!

They managed to migrate the data onto Rico's PC.

In the afternoon, I left my workstation working on a server-to-server transfer of the data.

Then my PC did its reboot-itself-when-you-least-expect-it-trick again, around 10 minutes (my estimate) after I left it.

I monitored the process from home, at around 9pm. The transfer stopped on the first big table.

:-(

Data Migration
Topic: i-Solv Project
They told me they'd try to finish migration in the morning, and that they'd be arriving in the afternoon.

Then in the afternoon they told me that they couldn't finish, so they'll try to come tomorrow instead.

Nope, you're not seeing doubles. This really happened two days in a row.
