I checked my emails and my tweets, started a coffee, walked my dog and got into the shower. My iPhone buzzing on the sink caught my attention a few minutes into it. Covered in soap and the rest censored for the public here I answered the call. Without getting into too many details of my organization - my bosses-bossess-boss contacted me reportinghttps://vninja.net/virtualization/vcp-5-exam-experience/Wed, 29 Feb 2012 20:00:42 +0000https://vninja.net/virtualization/vcp-5-exam-experience/Like many others I was a VCP 4 and needed to upgrade to VCP 5 by Feb 29th to avoid a pricey class and possible ribbing from my peers. I was well aware of this deadline since mid December, however, I procrastinated on studying and was mostly flinging myself around the globe doing implementations and having an all around good time. When Feb 1st came I was sitting on a flight from Saigon tohttps://vninja.net/virtualization/smb-shared-storage-smackdown-part-1-nfs-performance/Sun, 17 Jul 2011 19:31:22 +0000https://vninja.net/virtualization/smb-shared-storage-smackdown-part-1-nfs-performance/Recently at the office I was given the task to test out some SMB NAS products to use as potential candidates for some of our small branch offices all over the world. I did many tests relating from backup and replication to actually running VMs on them and pounding them with IOmeter. What I will share with you in this series of posts is my vSphere/IOmeter tests for NFS and iSCSI.

I was very excited with many of the features such as Storage Profiling, Storage DRS, VMFS 5 release, and they have blown the top off of the resource limits on VMs to create Monster VMs - just to mention a few.

I am normally a hardcore virtualization and storage guy. Sometimes my career in this sector brings me into working with stuff I haven't worked with before because virtualization encompasses so much. As I continue to work with other teams I learn more and more about what they do everyday. I usually find myself involved in every performancehttps://vninja.net/virtualization/zerto-or-what-i-learned-at-tfd-6/Mon, 27 Jun 2011 22:38:26 +0000https://vninja.net/virtualization/zerto-or-what-i-learned-at-tfd-6/The last day of Tech Field Day #6 myself and all the other delegates were lucky enough to get a sneak peek at stealth startup 'Zerto'.
