      <description>&lt;P&gt;I Upgraded my Log Insight today to 8.10 to make use of the new feature of scheduled reports. Just wondering if anybody has managed to get this to work. My reports do not work and I have chosen a busy dashboard with enough time for data&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have also did a test report and the email came through but it does not do anything with the scheduled reports and does not generate any emails&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you the problem was down to a certificate issue in the vcenter appliance&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I logged a call with GSS and they ran a python script which fixed the issue after which the qui options re-appeared&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks again for all your advice&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi I have two Vsan hosts configured with two vsan enabled VMkernel ports and the two hosts are on the HCL. Assuming the correct licensing is correctly applied when I go to try and configure vSAN on the cluster it shows a blink space under services such as below.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just wondering why the vsan service is not visible when I start the configuration wizard&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks in advance&lt;/P&gt;</description>

Assuming the target Hypervisor has the same configuration is it possible to use Vsphere Replication with a VM that works with a GPU&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks in advance&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have been asked to post this question. Somebody at my firm read an article that VMware will soon deprecate bios boot at the hypervisor level and got a bit confused thinking this may apply at the VM level.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Does anyone know when future versions of VM hardware are released that VMware may plan to remove the option for Bios boots&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks in advance&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;We are running a stretched cluster 6.7 u3 with 10 hosts but every now and then we get impacted by storage latency issues. All devices cache and storage are ok and are not reporting any issues&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;However we get with storage latency issues with the VMs and when looking at the vsan storage metrics at the host level we get very high delayed IO Average Latency&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Assuming the network is ok does anyone know what could cause this measurement to go so high&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have also checked cache evictions and this checks out ok as well&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks in advance&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
