Xirrus a Wi-Fi technology company based in Thousand Oaks, California, US, that designs and sells wireless networking equipment based on the IEEE standards 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n and 802.11ac. It was build 10 years ago (since 2005) on the premise that “wireless would replace wired as the primary choice for network access” with the goal to build the fastest (and also the most secure) Wi-Fi on the planet.

Great objectives, great responsibilities, and interesting market target: but Wi-Fi is growing (5.2 B wifi devices are already connected, and predictions say 20+ B by 2020!) and the related enterprise market also!

The current state of the Wi-Fi market is really interesting, with a continuous grow:

Microsoft has recently published more details on the licensing of Windows Server 2016 and System Center 2016 products. The publications are general available (and probably they will not change in the RTM) and are composed by a licensing FAQ, as well as a Windows Server 2016 Datacenter and Standard Edition licensing datasheet and a System Center 2016 licensing datasheet.

As already know with Windows Server 2016 there will be again some specific features not available for the Standard edition (like the Storage Replica, for example). With Windows Server 2012 the Standard and the Datacenter where almost similar in available features (main difference was the licensed VMs), now we are back to Datacenter that is more rich:

How fix the VMware vSphere 6.0 CBT issue

30 November 2015
Comments off
Reading Time: 3 minutes

As you probably know VMware vSphere 6.0 had a critical issue con its Change Block Tracking (CBT) implementation that can impact all incremental backup with “VMware native” backup program (all agent-less implementation using the VMware VDAP API).

This issue occurs due to an issue with CBT in the disklib area, this causes the change tracking information of I/Os that occur during snapshot consolidation to be lost. The main backup payload data is never lost and it is always written to the backend device. However, the corresponding change tracking information entries which occur during the consolidation task are missed. Subsequent calls to CBT APIs do not include these missed blocks, hence a backup based on this CBT data is inconsistent.

Possibile incompatibilità tra Veeam Endpoint Backup e Windows 10 TH2

25 November 2015

Nei giorni scorsi è stata segnalata un possibile problema tra Veeam Endpoint Backup 1.1.x e Windows 10 Threshold 2 (ossia l’ultimo grosso aggiornamento di Windows 10).

Benché il supporto di Windows 10 sia stato incluso già nella versione 1.1 di Endpoint e finora non vi siano mai stati problemi rileventi, con l’ultimo aggiornamento può accadere che il database di Veeam Endpoint Backup database files venga spostato alla fine dell’aggiornamento stesso, da C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile alla directory C:\Windows.old\windows\System32\config\systemprofile.

Non è ancora chiaro se il problema si verifica sempre o solo a chi ha aggironato di recente a Windows 10 e non ha ancora rimosso i file di roll-back alla versione precedere (Windows.old in questo caso è usato per poter tornare al vecchio sistema operativo).
