Just a quick post, but 2022 has been a great year on many fronts! As we move faster to the end of the year, I always like to reflect back on what was achieved. Getting to spend this week with one our Account Executives in the DC area engaging with our Customers and discussing their goals, 2023 roadmap and other …

Posting this more as a note to myself as a reminder and to also read the release notes a bit more carefully! After recently going thru an upgrade of the Firepower Management Center from 7.0.x to 7.2 FMCv, specifically on the Nutanix AHV platform I ran into a bug where the VM would not boot after the upgrade. While the …

Finally, Zerto has released a Linux based appliance for the Zerto Virtual Manager role. Finally! Now to be clear, I don't mean to use the term finally in a negative sense with Zerto, more of a sense of happiness that it's now available with the latest release of Zerto 9.5. Since there's still some limitations around …

Well, it's been exactly a year since the last blog post to this site. Oh, and it's also taken me a full year to migrate the blog from a self-hosted Wordpress site hosted by Amazon Lightsail, over to Ghost.

We’ve all got our schedule; we wake up, go thru a routine. Maybe you’re a gym person in the morning, or get out and enjoy nature for a few miles. Maybe you really enjoy that first cup of coffee and the newspaper. Maybe it’s breakfast with friends once …

It’s been a while since I’ve gotten any fresh content on this blog, hopefully I’ll get some content ideas to keep a regular cadence of updates going. While I was updating the cabling on the garage lab, I realized it had been a while since I had done anything on my CE lab from a version perspective, in fact the last …

Updated 5.22.19 Coming back from the Nutanix .Next conference two weeks ago, the biggest announcement that really got me excited as the ability for Nutanix Frame to run in AHV environments. AHV comes as an additional environment to AWS where Frame started, Azure and Google Cloud, currently in early release. I’ll be …

If you haven’t taken a close look at the hypervisor from Nutanix, AHV, well you might be missing out on something very valuable – that you already have access to as a Nutanix customer.
