Comment on Deleting VMware Snapshots is Slow by Q-tip

Q-tip — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:31:47 +0000

I use snapshots on Virtualbox similar to Steady State or Deep Freeze. I keep a Windows install on my Fedora laptop, which I use for school among other things, because, unfortunately, there are times where I need MS Office or VS.NET. Since I save all my work in a shared folder on the host, I don’t need to worry with keeping changes made to the guest OS, so I don’t. Once I got the guest set up, programs installed, CCleaned, and defragged, I created a snapshot. When I’m done working, I close VBox and tell it to restore the current snapshot. The guest OS essentially remains unchanged from boot to boot.

Matt please inform me as to the link of the show when it becomes active. I too know what it means to turn a “new leaf”. And know there is no better feeling of doing something you truely love doing. Look forward from hearing your show.

PS. – SAP? Accountants driving you crazy yet? I worked with SAP for 3 years on the infrastructure side until I went back to “Dark side of Oracle”…thanks to Larry E.

Let me know if you are ever in Louisiana and or the Dallas area.

Comment on ESXi & iSCSI by tng5737

Nice article. I setup the esxi 40 hypervisor and used it to host some vm’s. The whole experience reminded me of the old OS/2 days. With patience, luck, and just the right hardware your COULD get it to work! Of course getting esxi to recognize your cdrom device wasn’t quite as easy as mod’g the config.sys and dumping in the drivers – I mangaed get them working. The final straw was the lack of support for usb devices (although, the usb controllers are supported – go figure!)
I loaded FreeNas up on another usb drive and can dual purpose the machine. At anyrate it was a good learning experience.
I sure miss you you on HAK5! The segments you provided were, in my opinion, of greater depth and interest.

I have been wondering silently where you were but noticed you still in the intro. A new season has launched and i did not see you in the credits at the end so I figures time to dig around. Glad for you that you are re-focusing, sad for me as I enjoyed your contributions to the show. Best to you Matt, I am sure your fan base will notice your departure soon.
