2012 in review

Posted by Marek.Z on 31 December 2012

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for Default Reasoning!

Here’s an excerpt:

About 55,000 tourists visit Liechtenstein every year. This blog was viewed about 220,000 times in 2012. If it were Liechtenstein, it would take about 4 years for that many people to see it. Your blog had more visits than a small country in Europe!

Click here to see the complete report.

Thanks all for visit and your comments!

Have a superb 2013!

Cheers!

Monitor VMkernel activity with the tail command.

Posted by Marek.Z on 18 June 2010

The tail command displays last 10 lines of a file and with the –f (follow) parameter you can see the data appended to it. So, if you want to see what is going on in the vmkernel of your ESX host:

  1. Login to you ESX host
  2. Type: #tail –f /var/log/vmkernel
  3. Watch for new events to appear
  4. If you want to terminate the process,  press CTRL + C

Nice & simple :)

Cheers!

Great VM network config!

Posted by Marek.Z on 9 September 2009

A few days ago I was visiting a customer to troubleshoot some network issues on their virtual environment. I was amazed when I looked at the network configuration of their ESX servers. Look at the picture below and judge for yourself. The guy who configured it must be a real VMware guru! ;)
