Rupee symbol interpretation

I am not sure whether Mr. Uday Kumar derived/designed the Rupee symbol by keeping us in mind, But unfortunately it is 100% in line and matching with our current status.

I feel this is a very good interpretation.

Sreeram wins Indian Idol 5

City Boy Sreeram Chandra won the fifth season of the music reality show Indian Idol.


He was announced as the winner by Mr. Amitabh Bachchan.  


I feel he won because of peoples support from all over India. We should really Thank to all of them.  He is blessed with a good oppertunity and he should continue the journey as a Real Idol to all.  I really dont want to see him as another Anchor in Idol show or lost in the crowd like others.


Best of Luck Sreeram, Keep Rocking.

A very good example on Small mistakes, and their imapct on application

Yesterday we went to MySchools office. A big discussion was going on some database locking issue. It's interesting, their problem is application able to process two transaction successfully, from the third it is locking the table and execution is getting failed with timeout error. We asked to open the code, and we verified further. Finally I found the cause.  Close statement is missing in the code.  :-)

The Code which helped me to resolve the issue

private void OnPostInfoClick(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string strId = UserId_TextBox.Text;
string strName = Name_TextBox.Text;

ASCIIEncoding encoding=new ASCIIEncoding();
string postData="userid="+strId;
postData += ("&username="+strName);
byte[] data = encoding.GetBytes(postData);

// Prepare web request...
HttpWebRequest myRequest =
(HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://localhost/MyIdentity/Default.aspx");
myRequest.Method = "POST";
myRequest.ContentType="application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
myRequest.ContentLength = data.Length;
Stream newStream=myRequest.GetRequestStream();
// Send the data.
newStream.Write(data,0,data.Length);

newStream.Close();

}

Points to Remember while creating Datastore in ESXi

Few days back Shaikh and I worked on QAESXi Server installation, at that time we used all the default options. ESXi is installed and we are able to create the VM's successfully.

Today we got a Task to create a VM with 1TB space. We failed to create the VM on the above ESXi server as it is not allowing to add a disk with more than 256 GB. 

Shaikh resolved the issue. He explained the issue, it was intresting. Issue is "Datastore created with Block Size of 1MB". If Block size is 1MB we cannot create a disk with more than 256GB. 

Here is the combination of Block size and the Disk Space


Block Size 1MB - 256GB
Block Size 2MB - 512GB
Block Size 4MB - 1024GB
Block Size 8MB - 2048GB  


As we cannot do anything, we moved all the VM's to another Server, removed existing datastore and again added with correct Block Size. Gosh, Horrible!!!
