Sharepoint log files growing out of control

October 30, 2009 Oct 30, 2009 10/30/09
Brian Harry
As part of the Beta 2 evaluation process, I've seen a couple of reports of customers having problems with Sharepoint log files growing out of control - gigabytes in just a few minutes.  Needless to say, it fills up disks and creates all kinds of havoc.  While I don't know the root cause, we have found a bunch of useful information ...

Brian Harry
As part of our efforts to collect as much feedback on Beta 2 as we can, we've posted a survey that we hope you'll fill out.  It's 11 multiple choice questions and 3 free form answer questions.  If you've had a chance to try Beta 2, please take the time to fill out the survey.  If you've already given me performance feedback on ...

Performance of VS Beta 2

October 27, 2009 Oct 27, 2009 10/27/09

I'm starting to get very mixed messages about people's satisfaction with performance in Beta 2.  Clearly performance in Beta 1 was bad.  We knew that.  We did a lot of work in Beta 2 to make it better and I've heard a lot of people comment on how much better Beta 2 is.  At the same time, I'm hearing some people say they are...

Managing your work with TFS and Telerik

Check out Telerik's new tool for managing work on TFS.  It's got a task board, iteration planning tools, and some generally cool query/filter capabilities.  They've just released a version that works with TFS 2010 Beta 2.  I saw a demo late last week and it looks really good.  And best of all, it's a free add on.  I ...

Support for VS 2010 Beta 2

October 26, 2009 Oct 26, 2009 10/26/09
Brian Harry
As you may know, we are offering a "go-live" agreement for Beta 2.  As part of that, we are making support available.  Of course news groups and other avenues are available but I mean a live person on the phone helping you (assuming the hours match up - standard US business hours).  Sorry, we can't support 24x7 until the product...

Going Live with Beta 2

October 22, 2009 Oct 22, 2009 10/22/09
Brian Harry
Jeff Beehler wrote a good post on what it means to "go-live" on Beta 2 and steps you need to take in order to get support.  The only thing I'd add to his post is a little tempering of "high standards of quality".  I want everyone to understand that it is a Beta.  If you are going to go live on it, you need to be prepared to live...

Beta 2 documentation survey

October 22, 2009 Oct 22, 2009 10/22/09
Brian Harry
It's probably a bit early yet.  But once you've had a change to play with Beta 2 and look at the docs, the doc team here at MS would like some feedback from you so that they know where to focus their remaining work.  They've created a survey to help them collect your feedback.Brian...
