  • Hello! My clients have me administer their servers and mostly scheduled tasks on those. Powershell is an invaluable tool for that. I’ve built analyzers that determine whether scheduled tasks ran a normal amount of time, or whether they took too long, compared to their own normal duration. I also regularly run benchmarks to determine the fastest way to do things, like archiving millions of files across file servers.



  • Yes!

    One of the things that has escaped me, is how to connect diesel to a database that already exists. It is great that it can take care of creating a database and keeping it up to date, and keeps a record of all changes so you can recreate it as needed. But how does one use diesel to access a database that already got created and is in active production? A database with a structure that diesel is not allowed to alter? With pre-existing stored procedures that perform data updates?

    That would be lovely!
