Problemi con il driver vmxnet nelle VMware Tools 10.3.0

8 Settembre 2018
Comments off

Reading Time: 3 minutesTre anni fa, VMware ha annunciato l’intenzione di gestire le VMware Tools in modalità standalone, ossia con un rilascio indipendente da quello dei prodotti di virtualizzazione e con un proprio ciclo di vita e sistema di versioning. Quindi indipendente da VMware Fusion, Workstation ed ESXi e dalle loro versioni! Sembra bello, ma sicuramente siamo ancora in una fase confusionale, visto che esistono sia le VMware Tools standalone, sia quelle incluse nei prodotti di virtualizzazione.

Reading Time: 6 minutesWith the announce of the new vSphere 6.7 Update 1 you should expect also a new version of VMware vSAN (the bits are included in vSphere) and that’s it: vSAN 6.7 Update 1 (strange that has not been used the name vSAN 6.8). VMware vSAN has grown very fast in those years, not only in the number of versions (quite impressive) but also in the customers’ adoption, with more than 14000 organizations using vSAN and with a 110% growth year-over-year.

25 Agosto 2018
No comments

Reading Time: 9 minutesWith all those Meltdown, Spectre, Foreshadow, … bugs that affect several CPU, you may be interested in what can be the overall performance impact for all the related patches. There isn’t a simple answer, because it really varies by the processor vendor (Intel CPUs are more affected than AMD CPUs), probably also by CPU the family, for sure by the type of workloads (CPU bound workloads will be more affected, but it depends also on which instructions are used), … but also the type of environment.
