Forrester Webcast with XenSource, Intel and IBM

Got an invite from XenSource on this Forrester Webcast. It is scheduled for March 20th 2007.

Advances in hardware and software virtualization, as well as integrated technology solution bundles such as the IBM System x server with XenEnterprise, remove common barriers to server consolidation such as cost and complexity.

View our webcast and hear an analyst's perspective on why now is the time to leverage virtualization for server consolidation. Then attend a seminar in a city near you, and get more details about how this next generation virtualization supporting both Window and Linux with blazing fast performance can dramatically reduce your IT costs while increasing business agility and IT responsiveness.




Frank Gillett of Forrester will try to explain the "hype" on Virtualization. I thought we left the hype long long ago. I think what most vendors and analyst firms should do is to help the indecisive and very nervous CIOs come up to relax and open up their minds to adopt this technology.

Anyways do join the webcast if you are interested in the XenSource Virtualization solution.

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

Splunk that!

Saw this advert on Slashdot and went on to look for it and found the tour pretty neat to look at. Check out the demo too! So why would I need it? WHY NOT? I'd say. As an organization grows , new services, new data comes by, new logs start accumulating on the servers and it becomes increasingly difficult to look at all those logs, leave alone that you'd have time to read them and who cares about analysis as the time to look for those log files already makes your day, isn't it? Well a solution like this is a cool option to have your sysadmins/operators look at ONE PLACE and thus you don't have your administrators lurking around in your physical servers and *accidentally* messing up things there. Go ahead and give it a shot by downloading it and testing it. I'll give it a shot myself! Ok so I went ahead and installed it. Do this... [root@tarrydev Software]# ./splunk-Server-1.0.1-linux-installer.bin to install and this (if you screw up) [root@tarrydev Software]# /op
