Man that's one heck of a day - hope everything turns out ok!
Sing along in the key of G (most common in guitar) well it flows in my voice anyway if you pause at the right parts

Inspiration is the overplayed YouTube - 8th of November - Music Video (skip exactly the first minute of the guy talking)
If you listen to even a few seconds of the song part before reading the below you'll get it better...

The appropriate title: Help...My Life is a Country Song and I've Broken My Zimbra
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's been one of those days

wish I was a million miles away.

I've been running around all day long,

...just stuck in Blandinsville...


My wife almost died, though she is OK

but I'll definitely need ta buy her a new-car someday.
---
One kid is late, & one's sick at home

my cluster hates symlinks & won't install on a few new nodes.
---
& I need to expand it but tomcat is fried

did I mention the housing market's in a downward slide?

Chorus: been one of those days...


Meanwile westernonline just crashed

& my house is falling down-around my a$$
---
Surprised my dog hasn't died

though my washer's also fried.
---
One house is in construction - realtor needs it in 'production'

with all this going-on I can barely function.

All: One of those days....


On top of it all, I got one big fat error

I had upgraded without a backup & didn't have a prayer.
---
And it didn't take me long

to figure out what I'd missed.

The wrong package had sent me into an abyss.

Chorus: Just one of those days....


But in my darkest hour, not a moment to soon

this might save my world from fill-ing with gloom.
--
Hopefully the right debs will get installed A-OK

though I wont be appalled if my other car stalls later today.
---
Now, if only there were a -s command for every catastrophe

then my life wouldn't be like a country song nominee.

(All)Chorus: Oohhhh, life in Blandinsville... just been one of those days...

(Fade out to end...)


Seriously though Matt, both John & I are here to help ya out - Johns a little far a way, but I'm pretty good with construction -jk

Be doubly sure you got a backup before running -u, rsync & tar should be good A_Simple_Shell_Script_Method - Open Source Edition Backup Procedure - Zimbra :: Wiki
