News, views, events, and commentary from around the virtualization world that struck my fancy over the past few weeks—that’s what you’ll find in Virtualization Short Take #17!
I stumbled across this series of podcasts on building a scalable virtual desktop deployment. It’s a four part series: Part 1 , Part 2 , Part 3 , and Part 4 . I’m still struggling with finding a way to incorporate podcasts into my day; I’m drinking from the firehose as it is. For those that do listen to podcasts, perhaps this series will prove helpful.
Apparently, the argument about VMware violating the GPL (I wrote about that here quite some time ago) has surfaced again. Gordon Haff promptly and rather cleanly squashes that concern . Well said, Gordon.
Tim Jacobs posts a great article on matching LUNs between ESX and the VCB proxy server . This is just one of several good posts by Tim; here’s another one on VSS snapshots with ESX 3.5 Update 2 . This ...

VMWare / ESX From: forums.contractoruk.com Post Date: 2008-10-02 08:13:51
I have a bunch of machines hosting VMs (created with VMWare Server 1). Have just ordered a new beast of a server and want to run VMWare ESX on it.
Anyone experienced ESX before? I want to be able to:
. Create new VMs on the ESX host
. Migrate older VMs (as mentioned above) to the new ESX host
Seems I need to buy VMware Infrastructure for the new server. Don’t really need half the crap that that involves but meh...
I know you can use VMWare Converter to chan... more

Rumors had been building for the last few days, and in response VMware finally released the public beta for VMware Fusion, the Mac desktop virtualization product. I’d written about my first impressions earlier; now I’d like to share my thoughts on the public beta build.
Keep in mind that this is still a beta; it’s too early to make any sort of performance comparisons. (Having said that, I’m not really worried about performance; Windows XP Professional... more
Suggestions to use Samba in Linux-AD integration scenarios appeared in the comments for the following articles:
Linux, Active Directory, and Windows Server 2003 R2 Revisited
Kerberos-Based SSO with Apache
The idea was that Samba could be used to help automate the process of creating the appropriate service principals in Active Directory. Previously, I had recommended the use of ktpass.exe and separate user accounts for each service principal (i.e., HOST/ or host/, HTTP... more
Changing the IP address of a system running Solaris (Solaris 10, specifically) is different than a lot of other operating systems out there. Really, all you have to do is just edit a few files and then take the interface down and back up again. However, there seems to be a “gotcha” with Solaris 10. (I don’t know how far back this procedure goes—it is unclear to me if this is new to Solaris 10, or if it extends back to Solaris 8 or 9.)
Most o... more
