The Internet Fishing Trawler: Nested Edition

For those using Nested ESXi, Andreas Peetz over at VMware Front Experience shows how you can use his great tool to turn the ESXi VMware Tools into a package suitable to put inside the installer. I’ve requested that they consider releasing the VIB as a bundle to make it even easier.

Jonathan Medd has a blog post with his Puppet module “skeleton” creator using PowerShell. Even if you aren’t interested in Puppet you might enjoy reading some PowerShell.

Over at DailyTech they have a great article on MRAM and various memory architectures and the current industry state of play. Well worth the read and I think it will be an interesting time for hardware in the next few years.

More general IT news, unfortunately OCZ has gone bankrupt. They were one of the pioneers of consumer SSDs so it will be a bit sad to seem them go even if their drives of late were of questionable reliability.

Over at Technodrone there is an awesome series on how to use the Puppet Razor module. This is something I’d love to get a chance to try out in my lab when I get a chance.
