Great post. There will always be Dennis’s out there as long as people are willing to keep working with them.

I been working at a company for about 5 years when the board got rid of the General Manager running it and replaced him with a “Dennis”. One of the things he did was to prohibit working from home when we sick. He said that if we’re too sick to come to work, we’re too sick to work.

A few months later, we were under a big deadline to get a project done, and I got very sick. I was out sick for about 3 weeks. Our CTO (a really good manager) was forced to ask me if I would be willing to work on it from home. I told him, “No, I’m too sick to go to work; therefore, I’m too sick to work.” This particular time, I actually was too sick to work. That was about the time that the max exodus from the company started.

Comment on Clustering Nodes on different subnets? by retracement

Hi Jason! Absolutely spot on. The article is of course misleading since I mention SQL Clustering also in the post. You will also no doubt be aware that as of SQL 2012, multi-subnet clustering is fully supported for an AlwaysOn SQL Clustered Instance -finally! Thanks for dropping by.

I know that Windows 2008 clustering supports “OR”, but I thought that SQL Server 2008 R2 does not support “OR”. So my answer would be, Windows can, SQL cannot.

Dennis, a great example of how not to lead. Aye, Dennis might have made you hungry, but you did the work and took the risk to try something new. Congrats on making the change and taking the time to remind others that it is doable.
