Building the datacenter vmworld 2009

I like this kinda movies :)

Some specs
machines 2 cpu's 8 cores 48GB ram per server
total server 37TB ram
storage 348 TB
virtual machine's 37.248 O-o


Past my exam!

Finally got my mcse status. After alot of study hour's i don't know how may i passed my finaly exam today 70-298 892 points!.
It is a design exam and i found this one the hardest. Even 70-291 was not this hard. Atleast in my opinion.
Now my focus is going to be on vmware. Had my training now going to study for the vcp3 exam. Simon Long gave me some tips for study'ing this exam.
I know it's going to be a hard one but if you like the environment the knowledge's come's by itself.(or something like that).

i can call myself mcse certified \o/

vmware workstation

There is some interesting in the releasenotes of 6.5.3
*
Link to releasenote's
Workstation has been updated to power on the latest Microsoft Virtual PC files (.vhd). VMware recommends that you create a copy or linked clone of the image. If you do not create a copy, you cannot run the original virtual machine in VPC after running it in Workstation, because the virtual hardware layer has been modified.

So if im correct the vhd file's will be running without modding it?

Uninstalling vranger pro 4.0DPP

Uninstalling vranger pro 4.0DPP

Today I had problems with uninstalling vranger pro 4.0Dpp.

Was getting the error.

Vranger Pro Service couldn't be stopped. – Reason: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.





A quick solve is to stop the vranger pro services (start run services.msc) and them uninstall it again.
