The Book is Out!!

After a lot of work, the MOM book that I have been writing with Garry Meaburn has been released!

It's called Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 Field Guide. The description goes like this:

'Microsoft Operations Manager 2005 Field Guide is a quick
reference for resolving problems that intermediate-to-advanced MOM
administrators are likely to face.

Authors Andy Dominey and Garry Meaburn have experience with both deploying
and troubleshooting MOM in large-scale environments, and the problems and
solutions they discuss are ones they have actually faced in their careers.

This book is ideal if you're already familiar with MOM, but are not yet an
expert at administering it. All of the solutions and troubleshooting tips
get right to the point. Furthermore, the chapters are stand-alone and can
be read in any order you choose. This is a book for those who measure twice
before they cut--and for those who didn't but wish they had.'

For those of you who want to order a copy, you can get it from your bookshop or Amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Operations-Manager-Field-Guide/dp/1590597095/ref=sr_11_1/002-1634315-8411256 for those outside the UK

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Microsoft-Operations-Manager-Field-Guide/dp/1590597095/ref=sr_11_1/026-6727093-1347654 for UK based people

Hopefully the book will be of use to those of you who buy it!

Happy Reading!
