      <title>Microsoft liberara Virtual Machine Manager 2008 y "Application Virtualization 4.5" en Q4 del 2008</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/jose_maria_gonzalez/2008/07/23/microsoft-liberara-virtual-machine-manager-2008-y-application-virtualization-45-en-q4-del-2008</link>
      <description>&lt;br /&gt;
Desde el blog corporativo de Diane Prescott, Jefe de Producto de System Center, se desvela la fecha prevista para el tan esperado System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) 2008: el 4 &amp;ordm; trimestre del 2008.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
El producto que actualmente est&amp;aacute; en fase beta, tendr&amp;aacute; alguna funcionalidad interesante como que este ser&amp;aacute; capaz de gestionar el Hypervisor de VMware ESX aunque aun ser&amp;aacute; necesaria la existencia de VirtualCenter para la gesti&amp;oacute;n de Servidores ESX.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Esta limitaci&amp;oacute;n no depende de Microsoft, sino de VMware, ya que este permite el acceso a las API de gesti&amp;oacute;n s&amp;oacute;lo a trav&amp;eacute;s de VirtualCenter.</description>

      <title>Release: Oracle VM 2.1</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/jose_maria_gonzalez/2008/07/22/release-oracle-vm-21</link>
      <description>&lt;br /&gt;
En noviembre del  2007,  Oracle anunci&amp;oacute;  su propia infraestructura virtual: Oracle VM. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
La oferta de virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n est&amp;aacute; formado por dos componentes principales: el Hypervisor, VM Servidor de Oracle (basado en Xen) y la consola de administraci&amp;oacute;n, Oracle VM Manager. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
El producto viene de forma gratuita (los clientes pueden comprar soporte opcional) e incluso cuenta con una de forma gratuita de soluci&amp;oacute;n VDI ofrecida por Ericom. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Si bien el gigante de base de datos no es muy conocido en la  virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n , la elecci&amp;oacute;n del  Hypervisor (Xen)  provoc&amp;oacute; un "terremoto" en VMware, debido a la nueva pol&amp;iacute;tica de "bloqueo"  a los clientes que quieren un soporte oficial para sus productos Oracle virtualizados . &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
En estos meses Oracle ha actualizado el producto que lleg&amp;oacute; a la versi&amp;oacute;n 2.1.1 en marzo del 2008. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Los binarios pueden ser descargados &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://edelivery.oracle.com/oraclevm"&gt;aqu&amp;iacute;.&lt;/a&gt;</description>

      <title>Virtualizing SharePoint on VirtualGeek</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/ToddMuirhead/2008/07/21/virtualizing-sharepoint-on-virtualgeek</link>
      <description>&lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://virtualgeek.typepad.com/virtual_geek/"&gt;Virtual Geek&lt;/a&gt; has a some great performance and power consumption numbers up on his blog for &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://virtualgeek.typepad.com/virtual_geek/2008/07/virtualizing-sh.html#more"&gt;virtualizing Microsoft Sharepoint&lt;/a&gt;. I've gotten lots of questions over the past year or so about how SharePoint would perform in a VM and this is the best data that I have seen to answer those questions. He has info about how you can download the full report from &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://powerlink.emc.com/"&gt;EMC's Powerlink site&lt;/a&gt;, but the charts and info in his blog post seem to cover the main points. The amount of savings in terms of power are so big as to be unbelievable, but after looking at the details behind them it all seems to add up. An excellent read - I recommend that you check it out. &lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Get-stat</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/cpqarray/2008/07/21/getstat</link>
      <description>I've been playing around with the get-stat command. Thanks a bunch to Brian Denicola at &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://www.bjd145.org/labels/vmware%20powershell.html"&gt;http://www.bjd145.org/labels/vmware%20powershell.html&lt;/a&gt; for posting the example. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To grab memory stats from an ESX host type the command get-stat $esx -Memory -maxsamples 3 -realtime this will grab 3 memory samples from the server $esx. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
For example &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;$vc = get-viserver myvcserver -username admin -password vmware &lt;br clear="all" /&gt;	$esx = get-vmhost MyEsxServer &lt;br clear="all" /&gt;	$get-stat $esx -Memory -maxsamples 3 -realtime&lt;/blockquote&gt;
The -common switch gives averages for all major hardware subsystems cpu,memory, disk, and networking.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;$get-stat $esx -common -maxsamples 1 -realtime&lt;/blockquote&gt;
There is also a way to pull individual counters provided that you know the counter name&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;get-stat $esx -stat cpu.usagemhz.average&lt;/blockquote&gt;
This returns the average cpu usage in MHZ over the interval of collection. The list of all counters can be found here:&lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Benchmark: Xen 3.2.0 en AMD Quad-Core AMD Opteron con RVI</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/jose_maria_gonzalez/2008/07/21/benchmark-xen-320-en-amd-quadcore-amd-opteron-con-rvi</link>
      <description>La primera menci&amp;oacute;n de  Nested Page Tables (NPT) la encontramos a finales del 2006, cuando ambos Intel y AMD divulgaron  sus planes para introducir la tecnolog&amp;iacute;a en futuras versiones de sus CPUs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Empresas de procesadores y de software de virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n prometieron un aumento en rendimiento  gracias a esta tecnolog&amp;iacute;a, al punto que incluso VMware afirm&amp;oacute; que la overead de la capa de virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n  podr&amp;iacute;a ser eliminado completamente en 2010.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Sin embargo y hasta hace apenas unos meses no tuvimos la oportunidad de verificar dichas reclamaciones. &lt;br /&gt;
La primera CPU en implementar NPT fue AMD en septiembre de 2007 con su nuevo Quad-Core AMD Opteron ( Barcelona) con las extensiones de la Rapid Virtualization Indexing (RVI).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
En  Q3 2009, Intel tendr&amp;aacute;  en su pr&amp;oacute;xima CPU ( Nehalem ) la tecnolog&amp;iacute;a Extended Page Tables (EPT) .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
En este momento, los &amp;uacute;nicos  hypervisors que soportan la tecnolog&amp;iacute;a AMD RVI  son VMware ESX 3,5, cualquier producto comercial basado en Xen 3.2.0, y KVM. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
AnandTech acaba de publicar un  an&amp;aacute;lisis  muy interesante en el que  muestra la mejora de los resultados obtenidos por Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 (que implementa Xen 3.2.0) corriendo en un Servidor de 2 v&amp;iacute;as con sistema AMD Quad-Core AMD Opteron CPUs a 2,3 GHz. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Lo m&amp;aacute;s destacado del informe es que se consigue una mejora en rendimiento en oracle del  7%  y el 31% con IIS y PHP).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Microsoft  liberara Virtual Machine Manager 2008 y Application Virtualization 4.5 en Q4 del 2008.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Desde el blog corporativo de Diane Prescott, Jefe de Producto de System Center, se desvela la fecha prevista para el tan esperado System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) 2008: el 4 &amp;ordm; trimestre de 2008. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
El producto que actualmente est&amp;aacute; en fase beta, tendr&amp;aacute; alguna funcionalidad interesante como que este ser&amp;aacute; capaz de gestionar el Hypervisor de VMware ESX aunque aun ser&amp;aacute; necesaria la existencia de VirtualCenter para la gesti&amp;oacute;n de ESX. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
Esta limitaci&amp;oacute;n  no depende de Microsoft, sino en  VMware, ya que este  permite el acceso a las API de su gesti&amp;oacute;n s&amp;oacute;lo a trav&amp;eacute;s de VirtualCenter.</description>

      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/jose_maria_gonzalez/2008/07/18/vmware-ha-liberado-esta-semana-thinapp-40</link>
      <description>Despu&amp;eacute;s de la adquisici&amp;oacute;n y una rapida&lt;br /&gt;
integraci&amp;oacute;n de Thinstall,esta semana VMware lanza oficialmente ThinApp (anteriormente&lt;br /&gt;
conocido como North Star), su primer producto de virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n de aplicaciones&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Con este lanzamiento VMware inicia un proceso de transformaci&amp;oacute;n, atacando otras&lt;br /&gt;
tecnolog&amp;iacute;as aparte de la tecnolog&amp;iacute;a de virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n de hardware.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ThinApp 4.0 (build 2200) es la pr&amp;oacute;xima gran versi&amp;oacute;n de la ex Thinstall Application&lt;br /&gt;
Virtualization  virtualizaci&amp;oacute;n Suite 3.2,&lt;br /&gt;
que se libero en septiembre de 2007, y que&lt;br /&gt;
ya inclu&amp;iacute;a un buen numero de funcionalidades como :&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ejecuci&amp;oacute;n &amp;ldquo;zero-runtime&amp;rdquo; (no se requiere agente en la instalaci&amp;oacute;n)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Modo de ejecuci&amp;oacute;n de usuario (Son se requiere &lt;br clear="all" /&gt;	 	privilegios de administrador)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Streaming de aplicaci&amp;oacute;n bloque por bloque  (via SMB shares o iSCSI)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ejecuci&amp;oacute;n desde  llave USB  port&amp;aacute;til&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Soporte para  Sistemas operativos de 64 bits&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Soporte para paquetes MS&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Integraci&amp;oacute;n con Active Directory&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Adem&amp;aacute;s, esta nueva release introduce un par de nuevas funcionalidades:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Sincronizaci&amp;oacute;n de  aplicaciones&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Link de  Aplicaci&amp;oacute;n:&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
VMware  ofrece este producto a grandes&lt;br /&gt;
cuentas, ofreciendo un paquete inicial de 50 clientes concurrentes por $6.050&lt;br /&gt;
(incluyendo una subscrici&amp;oacute;n de soporte anual 12x5 ). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Una versi&amp;oacute;n trial del software puede &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="https://www.vmware.com/tryvmware/login.php?eval=thinapp"&gt;descargase aqu&amp;iacute;.&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;

      <title>Tons of Data on MD1120 and PERC 6 Performance</title>
      <link>http://communities.vmware.com/blogs/ToddMuirhead/2008/07/18/tons-of-data-on-md1120-and-perc-6-performance</link>

A few months ago Dan Hambrick from our System Performance Analysis team had completed and published a performance report of what I thought to be a very complete and through look at the PERC 6 (PowerEdge RAID Controller). It &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/PERC+6+Performance+Anaylsis+Report"&gt;posted to our humble site&lt;/a&gt; and I did a blog entry to highlight &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/03%2F28%2F2008+-+PERC6+Performance+Analysis+--+Comments"&gt;how cool I thought it was&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About a month later Dan comes back to my cube and tells me that he is getting all kinds of requests to do more testing. Of course any new factor could grow his already very large matrix and double the amount of testing. He ends up figuring out how to do a round of testing with the new &lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/storage_powervault_md1120?c=us&amp;#38;cs=04&amp;#38;l=en&amp;#38;s=bsd"&gt;MD1120 array&lt;/a&gt; and get the data into a form that is understandable in a relatively small number of graphs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a class="jive-link-external" href="http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/PERC6+with+MD1000+and+MD1120+Performance+Analysis+Report"&gt;The new paper&lt;/a&gt; was posted just a few days ago and the amount of data that is behind it is staggering. The numbers behind the graphs are all in the Appendix if you are brave enough to take a look, but I would highly recommend that you stick with the really cool graphs. &lt;br /&gt;
