    vCenter Orchestrator Workflows

    Is the workflow prompting you for a vlan id? The error seems to indicate that input parameter is null.

    What is a good study guide for VCAP5-DCA

    5.5...the new test environment is more forgiving than the 5.1 and I don't think the 5.1 test will be around too much longer.

    vCenter Log Insight Config issue?

    Try a different syntax on your username maybe it doesn't like that format. And you can leave the password off the command and it will prompt for it if you want. On a different note Log Insight is pretty awesome so far...fills a nice gap.

    UCS and Multi-NIC VMotion

    Hell ya! You don't work a lot of maintenance do you? =) Personally I don't like watching a couple thousand desktops/servers vMotion any longer than i have to in order to patch hosts. I haven't actually used any UCS stuff but I think it's somewhat similar to HPs virtual connect so what I...

    Why is Hyper-V so painful?

    We began evaluating Hyper-V 2012 recently and we are a vmware shop. While there are some nice features i would like in vmware like virtual HBAs managing hyper-v just seems a little too disjointed and not straight forward. Like I hate that you can only do some things in the hyper-v manager vs VMM.

    Questions on Locking down ESXi

    The draft STIG is for 5.0 instead of 5.1 and is pretty useless since it's just a copy of the hardening guide with a few tweaks that make no sense. I would check out the hardening guide but use some common sense as some of the recommendations will cripple your environment.

    Upgrade ESXi or dowgrade virtual machine version

    You need to run "esxcli software vib update" instead of "esxcli software vib install". Install removes all the HP OEM drivers like for the local raid controller in this case and doesn't replace them with anything.

    Experinces and opionons on VSA?

    I've got several Lefthand VSA setups at smaller sites and they work great. There are some gotchas that aren't really documented everywhere that can cause problems but properly setup I've had no issues. Well I take that back, the update/upgrade process is idiotic especially if you don't have...

    VMware has officially released their updated software.

    This link seems to hold the key to the automagic. It appears the act of joining the servers in linked mode creates the connections with the different SSOs. http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=2034074

    VMware has officially released their updated software.

    So say I have 2 sites and want to use multisite mode so that each site can remain functional if one goes down and want to use them in linked mode. How does the "logical" SSO get into the picture? Is that something that gets created automagically?
