		<description><![CDATA[You should believe that the VMware Update Manager was capable of handling missing files. But no, it does not. I removed a couple of files from the repository by simply pressing delete on them. These files were part of a host upgrade baseline and were no longer needed. After the delete operation, I can no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My new R710 running ESXi 4.0 has one problem: When the CPU load comes close to maximum, all performance monitoring for the host failes. Only a few, random monitoring requests comes through, making the resource graphs in vCenter look pretty ugly. As you can see from the attached image, a lot of data is missing. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mike La Spina has written a nice post about automatic installation of ESX 4.0 hosts utilizing PXE, kickstart and a lot of scripts. Mike has done a nice job creating configuration scripts, making it easy to copy his ideas for use in your own environment. Auto installation becomes necessary if you need to deploy a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently had the pleasure of trying to change the host name and IP address of the vCenter server. The old host has two networking interfaces. NIC1 was connected to the Internet while NIC2 was connected to an internal network with IP address 192.168.30.0/24. The vCenter and the plugins were configured to use the internal [...]]]></description>

In addition, the planning for The Gathering 2009, where I&#8217;m the chief information officier, has begun. To sum up some of the things learned from my project: There are a lot of shaky virtualization solutions out there. [...]]]></description>
