Bye bye VMware vVols

24 Giugno 2025
No comments

Reading Time: 2 minutesThe new VMware Cloud Foundation 9.0 comes with a long list of deprecated features! One of this the VMware vSphere Virtual Volumes (vVols) introduces for the first time in vSphere 6.0. They are an integration and management framework to enable external storage to become VM-aware storage. But vVols got some limitations (like replication in the first release, or backup via SAN mode) and a huge problem: not all Virtual Volumes implementation are the same (some storage vendors do it very well, but not all).

I floppy disk esistono ancora?

3 Febbraio 2025

Reading Time: 3 minutesPer chi come me ha utilizzato i floppy disk (sia quelli da 5¼” che quelli da 3½”) vien da chiedersi oggi che fine abbiano fatto. Oramai è da 10 anni che non vengono più prodotti floppy disk: Sony annunciò che da marzo 2011 avrebbe terminato la produzione di floppy disk. Verbatim anche se in un primo momento dichiarò di aver intenzione di continuare la loro produzione, decise, tuttavia, di cessarla nel 2015.

No comments

Reading Time: 5 minutesCybersecurity is a focal point of enterprises and governments globally.

Reading Time: 4 minutesThe Veeam Hardened Repository ISO (VHRISO) is a Managed Hardened Repository delivered as bootable ISO with a Rocky Linux distribution preconfigured by Veeam.

But also have an OS pre-hardened out of the box with all advanced security settings already applied. This because immutability may be not enough if you configure your repository in a wrong way! Recommendations are based on Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIGs) created and maintained by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for Rocky Linux. […]
