Using GroupWise to Log Calls In KACE K1000
We needed to get users to log calls via emails to our KACE K1000 Appliance. The KACE uses its own internal smtp server and sets its own email address as username@kacename.dnsname. As the appliance is within our LAN and our smtp relay is outside, where we have no control, we could not simply add the kbox domain as a subdomain. And for some reason, even though the appliance name can be resolved by dns, GroupWise would not send email to it. There are plenty of tips on how to make this work on other email servers but none for GroupWise, but after much trial and error we finally got it to work. Hope this helps save someone else some time.

Why Service Management?
In my last post, Eat or be Eaten - IT Transformation Underway, I discussed the transformation IT as we know it is undergoing. Last week I had the opportunity to listen to my good friend Eveline Oehrlich of Forrester present Reboot Service Management as hosted by ITSM Academy, confirming many of the discussion points from my previous post and had me thinking about my next series of posts.

Eat or be Eaten - IT Transformation Underway
Let's end the week with a little tongue in cheek humor. I started the week on a conference call on Monday and as I was looking out the window, a large bird came swooping past my window to land in a tree overlooking my patio. Curiosity of a Scorpion was getting the best of me to figure out what kind of big bird just landed so close. With a handy pair of binoculars I see it is a fairly large owl, that's kinda cool, but what is it doing. It took a minute or two to discern what exactly it was doing, oh no it's eating a mouse or rat. This provided my quote of the week, "Eat or be Eaten".

Windows Powershell script to create a Windows PE emergency recovery disk for ZENworks Full Disk Encryption
ZENworks Full Disk Encryption supports the use of a Windows PE emergency recovery disk to regain access to encrypted devices. Creating a Windows PE disk is an extensive command-line activity that requires the entry of more than 30 commands to create the correct directory structure and add the appropriate registry entries.
The Windows Powershell script automates the creation of the Windows PE emergency recovery disk, reducing the time required to create the disk and eliminating possible mistakes. The result of the script is a Windows PE ISO image that you can burn to a CD or DVD.
