So the #vDM30in30 challenge is over, which was started off by the guys from Virtual Design Master, and the challenge was to write 30 blog posts in 30 days. That’s all.
I took up the challenge, because it was that, a challenge, I started the blog in April 2014, but only really started to post stuff on a regular basis in July 2014. With around 30 blog posts on the site, taking the 30 posts in 30 days doubles my content, and also my exposure.
I encountered this issue on a brand new Veeam installation the other day. When running a test backup job.
"Error: NFC storage connection is unavailable, Storage: [stg-datastore-(Number),nfchost-host-(Number),conn:(ServerName)"

With my background in Networking and Virtualisation, VMware’s NSX is something which interests me deeply, as such I’ve attended a handful of sessions online, and also at the UK VMUG where Chris Whal presented on the subject.
Here’s my own interpretation of this new technology.
Its software-defined networking, you don’t need to buy any hardware to implement it, although you do need a running VMware environment.
I’ve noticed a lot of activity online about people taking exams before a particular deadline.
And just exams in general, regardless of a deadline.
I’m writing this post, mainly because I’ve been struggling to revise. And others will too, also being out of education for a number of years, you forget all those great techniques you never bothered to listen to when you did your exams in high school.
But now, you can re-learn and enhance yourself. 😉
I hate it, I always have. Its hard, it’s boring, and I could be doing other stuff I hate like tidying up.
Everyone has their favourites, and mine is SnagIT. It’s not free, but it has such a great interface, I can’t face using anything else.
I use it for capturing shots of the environment, as it is now, and after I’ve changed it, and then annotating them with arrows and text.
The end result is either the shots are used for my client project documentation, or here on in the blog posts.
To show off some of the features, I am going to try to use SnagIT to capture itself.
So SnagIT is broke down into two parts, the capture side, and the editing of the captures.
We can do static images and video, with an in-depth editing of the static side, but little options for video.
So here’s the capture side, which is based around the use of profiles.
