Welcome to Myhandyresources

This is my site for all things relating to Information Technology (IT) and Web development.

I have been working in the IT industry for over 20 years now, primarily as a UNIX administrator but for the last 4 years I have been working as a SAN System Engineer.

Over the years I have been involved in many projects, these include:

• Installing and configuring NAGIOS to monitor several SANs and Solaris Servers running Netbackup and SAMFS
• Upgrade several Core/Edge Brocade switches and EMC CLARiiON storage arrays with new DS-5100/5300 FC Switches and CX4-480 storage arrays.
• Installation and configuration of new FC Switches and CX4 Storage Array, including validation tests with connected servers(AIX/Solaris/RHEL/Windows)
• Planning and supporting Firmware upgrades on FC Switches and CLARiiON Storage Arrays.
• Oracle/Solaris 10 installation and Cluster 3.2 installation with Netbackup 6.5 and SAMFS
• HTML, PHP and MySQL Web development

I am always looking forward to new challenges within the IT industry especially with the current fast pace that technology is changing.

I Hope you enjoy my website.

Best Regards,

Dave Richards.
