All our servers and company laptops went down at pretty much the same time. Laptops have been bootlooping to blue screen of death. It’s all very exciting, personally, as someone not responsible for fixing it.
Apparently caused by a bad CrowdStrike update.
Edit: now being told we (who almost all generally work from home) need to come into the office Monday as they can only apply the fix in-person. We’ll see if that changes over the weekend…
How do you deal with places with thousands of remote endpoints??
That’s one of those situations where they need to immediately hire local contractors to those remote sites. This outage literally requires touching the equipment. lol
I’d even say, fly out each individual team member to those sites… but even the airports are down.
Call the remote people in, deputize anyone who can work a command line, and prioritize the important stuff.
