Welcome to Safdar.com - This is personal page for Safdar Mirza (Chicago). I keep up this page in order to stay in touch with friends and family around the globe. I also use this interface and many other interfaces in the background for my testing (Sand box) . If you have reached this page in search of Shabbir Safdar, then you are at wrong place. :) Please visit Safdar Shabbir at Safdar.Net. My Bread and Butter... Sun Microsystems. (Started from Solaris 2.5, 2.51, 2.6, Solaris 7 (someone at marketing decided to be cool), Solaris 8, Solaris 9 and Finally Solaris 10). BTW - Solaris 10 is very different monster - A great OS that you can depend upon for your production. In order to be productive, you have to find a good UNIX (Solaris) Admin and just for clarification, Linux Admin are very different then Solaris Admin. SAN - In past I have worked with Sun branded Hitachi storage and then I end up with EMC. I am a EMC proven professional now. I found both of them very interested. Both of them can cost you a lot of money but it is worth every single penny you will spend for your production. Now don't try to save money on hiring less experience admin!!! ESX - Lets go virtual .. I wonder who thought of this first??? Well here is something to consider. If you want to have an easy driven shop, with some linux admin, go with ESX otherwise if you have a big Solaris shop, feel free to go with Solaris 10. You can install Solaris on your wintel (intel/AMD) servers as well. Esx is easy to use interface and can make your job very easy if your production is not CPU hog. Windows - yep windows or should I call it Microsoft? Lets start with PC-DOS, MS-DOS, DOS 3.1, DOS 3.11, DOS 6.5, Windows 3.1, Windows 98, Windows 2K, Windows 2003 (finally something productive) and after so many release a real OS, Windows 2008. Thanks Microsoft, what took you so long? Thanks for introducing power shell. I was feeling very lonely running my .bat scripts in DOS style on windows 2003 servers. :) Finally a playground for me. |
