Happy Standard Time!

I’m working tonight for my full-time job doing a Disaster Recovery test for two production databases. There’s databases in Nevada and a mirrored instances (standby) in South Dakota. I’ve stopped the transaction log shipping from the primary database to the secondary, brought the secondary online and am now waiting for the application testers to “do their thing” as they attempt read and write operations against the standby. Mmmmm, fun! I’m noticing that two-o-clock in the morning is approaching, so I’ll raise a glass (of milk) to toast the beginning shorter days.
