28 Agosto 2017
Comments off

Reading Time: 2 minutesActually there are two different platform where you can run the vCenter Server components (including the PSC): Windows (both physical or virtual) or Linux (only with the vCSA, based on PhotonOS). Initially there was only a Windows version, then the vCenter Server Appliance (vCSA) was first introduced with the release of vSphere 5.0 and has since evolved to become the definitive deployment model for vCenter Server. Starting with vSphere 6.5 the vCSA has become the first choice and has raised the level of vCenter with new functionalities (not available on the Windows version).

Reading Time: 3 minutesFinally has been announced (or better, confirmed) that VMware plans to deprecate the Flash-based vSphere Web Client with the next numbered release (not update release) of VMware vSphere.

This parameter was static and any changes require a host reboot. But starting with vSphere 5.5 (see KB 2064511) this parameter has become “elastic”.

Reading Time: 3 minutesQuando si parla di IPv6, molti sistemisti si limitano a disabilitare questo protocollo, per tutta una serie di ragioni, spesso storiche, tra le quali possiamo annoverare: IPv6 potrebbe causare problemi in rete o sull’host (una volta forse), meglio applicare il principio del minimo privilegio e disattivare tutto quello che non mi serve (effettivamente se non utilizzo un protocollo di rete perché mai lo dovrei tenere attivo?), semplicamente per pulizia e per non vedere quegli indirizzi incomprensibili (qua è più una questione di abitudine, forse).

Reading Time: 5 minutesStarting with VMware Horizon 7 it’s possible to choose two different way to deliver space optimized desktop pools: using VMware Composer and Linked Clones technology (existing from several years) or use the new Instant Clones technology (introduced with vSphere 6.0). Similar to View Composer linked clones, instant clones share a virtual disk of a parent VM and therefore consume less storage than full VMs. In addition, instant clones share the memory of a parent VM. Instant clones are created using the vmFork technology. An Instant Clone desktop pool has the following key characteristics:
