I was looking at an article written by Rick Schummer on Data Corruption, the Bane of Our Existence.  I wanted to look at some code referenced in the article.
1. Thor_Tool_WLC_IndexDiagnostics.PRG
2. Thor_Tool_CheckDataIntegrity.PRG
3. Thor_Tool_CheckMemoFileIntegrity.PRG

I assumed it was Thor so I downloaded Thor and Thor Repository. I'm sure I'm missing something but I can't find these anywhere.

Can anyone point me in the right direction please?

Hi Pat,

 

The “article” is the white paper for the conference and available to those who attended the conference or purchase a license to the conference materials. You would get all the white papers for the conference, not just the one for my session. I am one of the organizers of the conference, so you can reach out to us at in...@geekgathering.com for more details.

 

As for the three utilities listed, those are available on my Thor Tool repository.

Thank you for responding.

You can find these tools by using the Thor Tool Manager:

And then entering "WLC" into the filter box:

You can execute them by using the right-click context menu.

Jim, 

The tools in question are personal tools I developed just for myself and shared with my team. They are not part of the Thor Repository. I included them in my own public Thor Tools repo which people can check out if they like.

Oopsie!

I saw "Thor Tool Repository" and did not see the word "my" preceding it.  My error!
