Building a perfect Windows XP virtual machine template (VMware Workstation 6.5)

Heiko — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 14:44:53 +0000

Being kind of new in the whole virtualization world, my first goal was to setup my own ESX host at home to experiment with.

Shared storage is required for features like VMotion, Fault Tolerance and many other great features VMware ESX 4.0 has to offer to make our virtual life as easy as possible. Also my future testing with Citrix XenServer should profit (read: will be a lot easier) from using shared storage. After searching through the virtualization community [...] Related posts:

Time Machine back-ups op Popcorn Hour A-110

Heiko — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 12:02:41 +0000

Hiermee is de PCH meteen ook geschikt om als Time Machine back-up schijf voor mijn MacBook Pro te [...] Related posts:
