Well DUH!
Z and his mommy (La Princessa) sit around the kitchen table and smoke Padrons, while trying to decide who to put on timeout, and for how long.
Work?

It's almost fixed, AND this is how "updates" and the like "work" in real life...........just ask Macs or 8Track.
Things will be back to normal on Monday..........I promise.

I was in the industry for many years. If you have smart devs and smart management, this IS NOT "how it works in real life". Even very large, complex upgrades and updates work seamlessly and perfectly.

What causes the big disasters is either mediocre devs who can't track down all relevant dependencies and implications of a change beforehand and account for them all, and/or management who's too cheap or dumb to give the devs enough time to do so.

Usually it's bit of both.

Worked in the IT field for 10 years. Worked in numerous data centers which ran online apps. In all of them, they had a development environment where updates were written and tested before wide scale deployment. In all my time in the field I never once witnessed snafu's like this. It seems like patches are written on the fly and deployed with little if any testing.

Ya...

I consider it a major fail if an upgrade puts the client down for more than a half an hour.

This is just ridiculous, people should be fired over this... The IT guys and devlopers should be ashamed of themselves.

Yup, the dev environment, a QA environment, a UAT environment, then production. Changes had to progress through all of them in that order, with three different sets of people testing the crap out of them at each of those stages. This (along with GOOD devs with attention to detail and non-retarded management) are how you make big, complex changes go off without a hitch.

Not sure if you're joking or not, but if I'm lying then I must've imagined all those years of problem-free large changes. Maybe my whole career was all a dream, like the end of the Newhart show! But probably not. I just might know what I'm talking about!
