Moving Day
Well, I am moving this blog to a new location. It’s going to a new server and content is being synchronized. As a result… well it may be a day or so before I get everything back to normal because I am quite busy with a trip to Denver in the offing. So check back… the old content will return. Maybe I’ll actually update this thing. LOL… uh-huh… yeah, right

VMotion Issues
Well, I hit an interesting issue with VMotion in VMware vCenter. Funnily enough it seems eerily similar to a problem reported on Twitter last week by @joefarri. Maybe this will provide some insight into some of the odd problems that can occur. Basically, I had a swath of VM’s that wouldn’t VMotion across my cluster. They seemed to be set up OK, and even seemed to have no removable devices

It’s Been Too Long
It’s been so long since I last wrote that I don’t really know where to begin. Mostly, my life has changed radically during the last 18 months, and it’s been a whirlwind. Those closest to me know all the details… those from further afield… well, email me and I’ll fill you in. Â Suffice to say, there’s no point assigning blame because no-one is blameless. But the new reality is, and

Disappointed, Hurt and Tired
Isn’t it amazing? How life just always seems to confirm your worst suspicions, even when you hope for the best. Today has left me feeling bitter, tired, disappointed and incredibly hurt. It’s also left me with a certain sense of inevitability that I had been putting aside (I thought) for the good of those closest to me. It now appears that an attempt at a power trip has taught me

First Post in almost a Year!
OK… second post. 😛 Well, I just got it confirmed and totally official; I’m going to VMworld this year in San Francisco! Woohoo! I can’t wait. I had a fantastic time last year meeting up with old friends and making new friends while I was at it. It was a truly incredible experience, at least in part because VMware are quite open to allowing competing vendors in. There was a

Quick Update
Life has taken loads of turns of late… for the better, and the worse. Still, I’m surviving, getting by and am actually still alive. To who’ve emailed lately wondering if I’m OK… thank you… I am. It’s just been rather hectic and trying to respond to all the people who’ve been in touch is tough… but I WILL be in touch with all of you. I’m hoping to add much

Last Chance to See
Dude! http://blog.wired.com/underwire/2008/07/star-trek-exper.html Seems the Star Trek Experience is closing in Las Vegas. I guess when I go out there for VMworld in September I’d better make a point to go see! Thanks, Jallarzie for the recommendation… bummer it’s closing! Blogged with the Flock Browser

Definitely out of it
Well, another blog entry… though sometimes I do wonder if anyone reads my prattlings. I’ve been depressed lately. That’s part of the reason I’ve not been blogging. That and the fact that in order to combat the depression I’ve not been home much. As a result, since I don’t get online from work since I actually now have a job that requires me to actually DO some work (unlike my
