New blogs: Blade Watch, Vitrix
New blogs in the truly globe-spanning Planet V12n:
Vincent Vlieghe's Virtrix. Vincent works for the Belgian IT consulting company Xylos (as does fellow Planet V12n blogger Geert Baeke). Vincent has hands-on experience with VMware products, and his blog reflects that with practical tips and advice. Recent posts include:
- Best practices for deploying Citrix on ESX
- VCB troubleshooting "guide"
- Virtualization licensing round-up
- vmhba display bug in VI Client
- Converter Enterprise Review
- snapshots and deleted .vmdk
Martin MacLeod's Blade Watch. Martin is a UK-based consultant specializing in, you guessed it, blades, along with high-performance, grid, and of course virtualization. He's got wise things to say about the business process side of the data center, and lately he's been covering power savings as well. Recent entries:
- What's the next Prius? The next issue for IT?
- Virtualization of the desktop
- Grid is so last year ... virtualization is where it's at
- Virtualization is quick, decommissioning takes forever
- VMware for disaster recovery, bcp
Both of these blogs cover more than just virtualization (Virtrix also covers Citrix and other server-based/thin-client solutions, and Blade Watch has lots of blade info), so if you're interested in the topics, go straight to the source and subscribe!
