3rd day at VMworld 2008

Posted by Marko Merl Sep 19, 2008

The first session was an interesting story how a VMware infrastructure works at a casino. Very interesting was the whole infrustructe (e.g. network, storages, etc.).

The second session was about VCB. I learned there some new functions what will come in the next version of VCB in 2009. I just can say that the companies what are selling backup solution should be careful what they will do. The new generation of VCB includes all this stuff what you need to make backups in different methods (e.g. host based, VM based, etc.). Also a nice GUI will be available in this version.
But one point was very important, it is recommed to upgrada all ESX to 3.5u2, because in the current new version of VCB is VSS supported. That is needed to backup MS SQL/Exchange servers without any errors ;-).

The third session was like the second, but with more troubleshooting informations.
