Login to VMware Communities will be unavailable on Friday April 24 from 7pm to midnight (5 hours) for planned maintenance of VMware Web site infrastructure. VMware Communities is expected to remain available for people who are already logged in. The maintenance does not involve any changes to core VMware Communities functionality.

The VMware Communities homepage is now fully migrated to http://communities.vmware.com/home.jspa and the old homepage has been retired.

The new homepage contains all of the navigation links from the old homepage, plus a lot of other useful links and content.

We are pleased to announce the arrival of the VMware vSphere Community, as we rapidly approach GA of vSphere 4.0. The community landing page and its sub-communities have useful content and links for your perusal. The Upgrade and Install community in particular would be of interest to customers planning to upgrade to vSphere 4.0, as well as prospective customers interested in evaluating (and buying, of course!) our new cloud operating system. Have fun!

Also, we have done some minor rearranging and/or renaming of existing communities:

  • "Datacenter Virtualization Products" has been changed to "VMware Infrastructure™."
  • "Enterprise Strategy & Planning" has been moved up from under VMware Infrastructure to reside directly under VMTN.
  • "VMware VMmark" has been moved from VMware Infrastructure to General > Performance.
  • "VI: Virtual Machine & Guest OS" has dropped the "VI" from its name and moved under General (and the URL now ends with /vm-guest instead of /guest).
  • Finally, the "Security and Compliance" community under General has been modified to reflect the addition of "vShield Zone;" it is now called "Security and vShield Zones"
Thank you.
The VMware Team

Bug Fixes
The following two bugs were fixed:

  1. Last Logged In Date: Your profile (My Content -> Profile) now displays the correct Last Logged In date. Note: To reset your Last Logged In date, you will need to log in.

  2. Session Expiration while Posting Content: If your session expires while you are posting content (e.g. starting a discussion, replying to a thread, creating a document, or editing a document), your content will get posted correctly and then you will be logged out. This fixes a problem that caused your content to be lost. This is the one known cause of lost content, but if you are still seeing lost content issues, please let me know and I'll investigate.


Embedded YouTube Videos:
In addition, you can now embed YouTube videos in Discussions, Documents, and Blogs. If you include the following code in either a Discussion or Document or Blog Post:

It looks like this:

I hope you like! - Robert
