Think "Out-Of-The-Box" with EMC in Rotterdam 13th March 2007


Got several posts at home, at work and now at email from EMC folks. We all have to start thinking out of the box. EMC will address all the coolest and important aspects of our current challenges.

Out of the Box 2007 richt zich op vier boeiende en actuele thema’s:

Information Storage presented by EMC
Virtualization presented by VMware
Content Management & Archiving presented by EMC² | Documentum
Information Security presented by RSA

Dankzij een reeks uitgekiende overnames beschikt EMC nu over een nog completer productportfolio wat u in staat stelt uw informatie nog beter the managen, stroomlijnen en te beheren. Nieuwsgierig? Tijdens Out of the Box 2007 hoort u alle details.

Interessante keynotes:

Peter R. de Vries*



* Peter R de Vries is an amazing guy, if you have followed his programs and achievements. What I also like about him is that he sounds like my pa-in-law (who's a top-cop too by the way :-))

Dus meteen aanmelden, mensen!

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

Virtualization is hot and sexy!

If this does not convince you to virtualize, believe me, nothing will :-) As you will hear these gorgeous women mention VMware, Akkori, Pano Logic, Microsoft and VKernel. They forgot to mention rackspace ;-) virtualization girl video I'm convinced, aren't you? Check out their site as well!
