the cisco sg500xg-8f8t is the only switch i know of that combines 10Gbase-T and SFP+, it doesn't meet your requirements for the 16 1Gbe ports however.

Posted this in the networking subforum but I'd like to see your guys' input since I know alot of you virtualization guys are managing the core networking like me. I manage a site that has two data centers in separate buildings connected via single-mode fiber, the fiber run is less than 300...

I manage a site that has two data centers in separate buildings connected via single-mode fiber, the fiber run is less than 300 meters so latency is on par with a LAN (<1ms). We have a stretched VMware cluster spanning across those two sites backed by a NetApp metrocluster storage system...

Open up a case with VMware, I'd be interested to hear what they find

And your changing the vcpu on the golden image, powering it up and making sure its recognized, powering it down and taking a new snapshot, and using that new snapshot when you recompose correct?

Not sure why they're not showing up but the right way to do it would be to change the golden image VM's vCPUs and then recompose your linked clone pool. A wild guess as to why the extra cores aren't recognized is because the replica disk is read-only and that's where the system configuration...

I have an isolated lab set up inside of my dedicated lab at work. Right now the entire lab infrastructure is completely physically separated from the production environment. Only way in is by connecting to the specific port that is connected to the dedicated lab switch or by OpenVPN into the...

I took the ICM class through UCSC extension awhile back. Think it ran about 1300 maybe less. It was all online and there were no specific time requirements as to when you had to attend the class, they were all recorded lectures and there were weekly assignments that needed to be completed. Can't...

wouldve been nice if they gave horizon enterprise so we could play with AppVolumes too

SeanusT, thanks for your tip, on our RSA setup we were using unrestricted authentication agents, read up and saw they have restricted agents which allow you to query an AD group to permit access through the RSA authentication process. I then allowed the VDI subnet through on my palo alto rule...

And how many sockets of enterprise plus are you allotted to?

Have any of you guys deployed or managed a View environment w a Security Server in the DMZ and had users connecting from the outside to linked clone desktops on the internal network? Currently our environment is this: - Two internal connection servers, one for internal only connections and...

what would you guys recommend for a non-persistent vdi environment then? We're using system center now on our full clones but don't have anything for av protection on our non-persistent linked clones. Due to auditing requirements we're going to need something for AV on all our endpoints. I've...

Yep very quiet, one host w all the vm's listed above, the switch, access point, storage server and cable modem only draws ~260 watts. The loudest component is the storage server but even that is quiet w the 120mm fan wall.

2 x ESXi 5.5 Hosts: Supermicro X9SRH-7TF Xeon E5-2620 64GB ECC DDR3 Seasonic X-400 Platinum Fanless PSU Noctua NH-U12 Fractal Define R4 Intel quad port NIC Always on host has one 240gb SSD and 4 Crucial M4 128GB SSD's for local VM storage and 6x2TB drives in RAIDZ-2 attached to...

persona management became available with view 5.0 so that option should be available to you. As far as the performance issues, do you have any monitoring software like vcenter operations manager or veeam one? If not i'd download the free version of veeam one to start out with and see what kind...

Is this for a vmware view environment? If so try giving persona management a shot instead of roaming profiles. Seems to have alot less headaches/corruption isses like roaming profiles does. As far as the slow VM's can you give us a little more information on your environment? What storage...

What's the downside to buying a C240 and not going with their OEM SSD and disk options? A OEM Cisco 400GB performance SSD runs almost $4k and I could get a 400GB S3700 for around 800 dollars. Pretty much if anything hardware wise goes wrong cisco support will point the finger at the non OEM drives?

Also management wise what would we be losing by not connecting the C-series servers to an FI with UCS manager running on it?

Deploying another vcenter instance on this new cluster most likely. Wouldn't that be best for a cluster thats at the other end of a WAN link Jason?

Ok a little background about our environment. We currently have a mix of 8 poweredge r710/r810/r820 servers in a stretched cluster in two different facilities across our campus, each with 256GB RAM and two dual port 10Gb broadcom nics mated to eight Force10 S4810 10Gb switches, two for the LAN...

Ah you've got an infinihost card. I'm not positive if those will work as net adapters in esxi, my experience has been with the connectx-2 line of cards.

It looks like youve got the OEM drivers for ESX 5.1 not 5.5, i got my drivers from here: https://my.vmware.com/group/vmware/details?downloadGroup=DT-ESXI55-MELLANOX-MLX4_EN-1990&productId=353

Will the vsan evaluation key have the ability to be renewed by reinstalling such as the case with esxi?

I just took a look at my other i7-2600 (non k) processor and it has the same marks so I'm guessing when the heat sink is clamped down it makes those marks. If I had to describe it it's not a chip but like a scuff causing it to be shinier than the rest of the heatspreader

i tried swapping the fan in mine for a quieter one, didnt do anything since i believe its putting out 12 volts out of the connector, next i tried a variety of resistors, the ones that did slow it down enough to acceptable levels had trouble getting the fan to spin on startup, so now im just...

Yes you can.

has anyone gotten sickbeard/sabnzbd/couchpotato running on their nexenta box? Ive found instructions here for openindiana: http://blog.damox.net/?p=95 The repos and package utility is different for nexenta however. I know for a fact that one person on the nexenta ce forums has done it, havent...

Yes we already covered that. This particular position is limited to just the state but mostly one area of the state.

So I currently work in higher ed as a sys admin and I am close to locking down a position as a systems engineer for a VAR that's a pretty high profile partner with Citrix and VMware. I'm very adamant about getting into the consulting side of IT so I can be exposed to all sorts of environments...

anyone, is there a way to move all data from a pool to a zfs folder? When initially setting up my zfs SAN I neglected to create a ZFS folder now I am unable to properly set ACL's. I need to move all data from the raid-z pool to a folder I plan on creating so that the mountpoint will be...
