Anyone else go into no network this morning?
Bit of a handling, looks to be worldwide. Flights grounded, banks affected etc

My work in NYC, pretty much everything relying on a network is down.

Seen that.. Though I have the ticket in the wallet (whatever that is)!! Hopefully it doesn't f**k up!

Apparently there's a fix out there already and sounds to have been deployed in a lot of places. It'll take a while as this was so far reaching but would expect be grand for then.

How many tickets for a final are through this system?
Club tickets would be paper? If I mind right season tickets were paper for the final but this could be different now.

I wonder will the scanning system be affected in Croke Park

"Deployed" means someone going to each machine, as the machines will not start there is no possibility of network deployment. Some places have more people to do the needful than others.

Glaziers  couldn't get a minute to themselves

What have the utd owners got to do with this

That's a totally  different   Kind of "troubles"

Great thread title, and affected more people and bugs than the 1666 Great Fire of London.

It'll be slow but it's 36 hours plus and with potential loss of revenue then you would expect the Gaa, ticketmaster etc to be all over it.

As someone in IT support - It's been hell so far, Crowdstrike/Microsoft going to have big compensation claims against them

Dunno if it has much to do with MS.

Seems like Crowdstrike have either a bunch of cowboys running their V&V, or, more likely, their V&V teams were overridden by an executive.

(Bit like Boeing really. All worship the almighty dollar in the C-suite.)

Is V&V validation & verification?

I assume they also have a CAB - Change Advisory Board.

Software testing is a very underinvested in function across the board. You would have to imagine this kind of software update is rolled out very regularly by a company, and probably product, like this.
