don't know about that one, but i was involved in one where the backup wouldn't run at night. i'd run the thing in the morning and it worked fine but it wouldn't work at night. seems the cleaning crew needed another plug to vacuum the server room and just unplugged that server every night, then plugged it back in when they left. and the SA on the box couldn't tell me that was happening.;-)

Software is mind work.  Having the right frame of mind is essential.
