Lenka Live in Hong Kong, Yeah!
Can’t believe I’ve really made it on the last moment.
It’s a bit short, only 1 hour and 15 minutes, but still what a magnificent show!
No more DIY, probably a Dell Optiplex (now is 990, not sure what’s after that) with 3-5 years NBD warranty.
Two Gigalan, one for Internal LAN.
Hopefully Dell will release an upgraded Optiplex shortly in December.
Just another good one from Veeam’s Anton!
In other words, if you don’t spot the corruption immediately, your replica will have absolutely no use. Consider virus infection, or application data corruption – both are very hard to spot immediately.
We perform application-specific VSS backup step when grabbing the image, as well as application-specific VSS restore steps upon failover (when replica VM is first started) as per Microsoft requirements. vSphere replication just picks up the image without looking inside or trying to meet any Microsoft requirements on how application should be backed up and restored. Exchange webinar goes into specific details using Exchange as example.
You decide how this is important for you, I know many customers love it.
SRM is great for storage-level replication and whole site failover orchestration, and our replication is great for smaller scope outages and better protection of individual most critical workloads due to multiple restore points. My take is that vSphere 5 replication is way to basic to provide replacement for our replication (especially with v6 functionality), but neither our v6 removes the need for SRM v5 in scenarios where storage-level replication and site failover orchestration are required to meet RTO and RPO in case of large scale site-wide disaster.
Of course, there is also huge price difference, but that does not matter for you since you already own SRM anyway.
Lenka will perform live in Hong Kong in Sept 29 (Thur) at the 九龍灣國際展貿中心 (KITEC-Rotunda-3), but HK$380 for 2:30 hours free standing is going to be hard for me, ops…so I guess I just skip it as I can’t queue up as early as 3pm that day like those young kids, too bad!
Despite Typhoon Signal 8, Lenka Live will go on according to schedule tonight, guess what? I got the last minute ticket, Yeah!
