    VWD/C#/aspx: event handler doesn't trigger

    You can use the event handlers of dynamically created buttons; however they're a pain to get right. Here are common causes of this problem: Not enough of the control tree (nested Controls collections) exists for the viewstate to load properly, or the control tree that exists on the POST request...

    ASP.Net PreInit

    There's nothing wrong with overriding the PreInit method; the code-behind for an ASP.Net page is still a c# class after all :) akakjs

    SQL server 2008 and server spec

    Handy tools for SQL Server: For SQL 2008 R1 you can install the Performance Dashboard (It says 2005 but it works under 2008 as well). For SQL 2008 R2 you can configure the performance data warehouse. Both tools can give you a breakdown of which queries are using the most CPU (or indeed I/O...

    Anyone using HP P4500 SAN + VMware?

    ahh. quite a hardcore question then :P We only run about 16 off ours, but I'll have a poke and see what kind of performance we get. I should add that I'm strictly an enthusiastic amateur, it's not my day job (software developer by trade); so if you have something specific in mind you'd like me...

    Anyone using HP P4500 SAN + VMware?

    We have one (a pair) of those at work; I don't manage them myself (they're at our CoLo, I do the office stuff) but I might be able to help/ask for you. What's your question? :) akakjs

    Guitar advice

    Personally I'd spend you money on the guitar first, rather than a amp. Finding a guitar you love will help your playing with or without an amp. I'd highly recommend having a play of a PRS SE. If you go with a non-signature model they're fairly cheap, and can be had second hand for around £250...

    Benchmarking SANs

    Can I ask how you've got the switching configured? (Trunking/flow control/jumbo frames). Also how do you have the network raid configured? Excuse the questions but I maybe ordering a left hand cluster on Monday :D akakjs

    EPOS Updates to an ECommerce Site - Help Me :(

    mm if I'm reading the feature list on the WASP website correctly, even their intergrated stock management isn't real-time ("Distribute and share information between physical locations using a polling operation"). No mention I could see of an API either. There is a "value-added resellers and...

    ASP.NET Issue

    You've got a few options: 1) Output the variable in a hidden form field. From here you get the value easily with javascript 2) Output a block of javascript in your html that sets the javascript variable. Unless your going to be passing a lot more information back and forth, AJAX on ASP.Net is...

    What SANs should I consider?

    Well you certainly can't fault the SAN market for lack of choice at this price point! Loads of choice (another good reason to seek advice!). Been reading up on the p4000 it looks very interesting. Their demo video of them turning off one VMWare hypervisor and have the VMs recover in seconds was...

    What SANs should I consider?

    Eventually we're aiming for proper multi-site DR, so I can spend a little extra to get the realtime replication as I can justify that against the BC/DR budget instead of our "hosting" budget. mm could you expand on that a little? This particular SAN box is going into a co-lo rack, so density of...

    What SANs should I consider?

    Most of the reads will come from our MS Dynamics GP ERP system. It's horrifying in it's read requirements (and tempdb usage :P), and will happily read continuously in our current environment. It's currently got it's own dedicated 5 disk raid-5 array, attached to some shared EMC FC storage at our...

    What SANs should I consider?

    I've done some searching on the forums, most of the threads I found discuss non-mission critical systems; development environments, home VMWare installs, or people with un-realistic expectations of costs. (I know SAN equipment costs a lot; I just don't think it's usually justified ;) ). I've...

    What SANs should I consider?

    Hi, I'm busy putting together a spec for a VMWare cluster, I know most of the hardware and my preferences for vendors, so far I have: 4x HP DL360 G7s, 2x Cisco ASA5510s or Juniper equivalent plus assorted odds and ends. Now what I'm getting stuck on is shared storage. We don't need a lot of...

    SSL Certificate - Recommendations?

    Go daddy where fairly cheap and widely supported as a Certificate authority, and if you google a bit you can trackdown discount codes. There are free alternatives (like http://www.cacert.org/), but the CA certificates are not as widely pre-installed. akakjs

    ASP.Net - Skinned Sites - Best Way?

    If you need to vary the position/sizes of the images, your approach with multiple CSS files is the way to go. We have multiple image versions each the same size and positions. So using the virtual directory approach means we only have to maintain the images, rather than the CSS & images. It's...

    ASP.Net - Skinned Sites - Best Way?

    What we do at work (for country specific sites) is have several sub-directories for CSS/Images/Javascript with different suffixes. e.g. "img.en-GB" & "img.fr-FR" then use a simple virtual directory to map to the correct one during deployment. E.g. "/img" is mapped to "/img.en-GB". Very little...

    New vagas Stability

    I use this one as well. So far it's been fairly stable. A few crashes, but I can play for several hours at a time easily. There are some more details of tweaks to try here (including the AI tweak above) : http://segmentnext.com/2010/11/02/fallout-new-vegas-tweak-guide/ akakjs
