10:01 am - Last night
we did it again. Actually, this morning we did it again.
Between Midnight and 04:00 we pulled off something that to the best of our knowledge, no else has done. We upgraded our DB2 engine from v7 to v8 wheels rolling. I say to the best of our knowledge since IBM claims that others have done this but they have been uable to provide us with a reference account so we could talk with people that have done it before we tried it. At all the conferences I've been to in the last 3 years, no client has spoken about doing what we accomplished. It was a long stressfull night, that we completed 1 hour and 25 minutes ahead of our planned schedule.
Even with the occassionaly horrendous hours, there are times that I truly love my job. We f'in' rock!
Now it's time for breakfast.
