eG Innovations offer VMware monitoring

eG Innovations, a global provider of business service monitoring and triage solutions for IT infrastructures, today announced its first product specifically designed for use in virtualized computing environments. The eG Monitor for VMware® InfrastructuresTM (eG VM MonitorTM) is a comprehensive solution for monitoring and managing all aspects of virtual hosts and guests, whether the infrastructure is used to support server or desktop applications. The product includes patent-pending technology, and is part of the company’s flagship eG Enterprise SuiteTM.

The eG VM MonitorTM is the only virtual management tool providing real time “external” and “internal” performance views of what a VMware host sees about the guests and what the guests see internally. Using patent-pending In-N-Out MonitoringTM technology, the eG VM Monitor provides a comprehensive view of the VMware ESX ServerTM, including performance of the VM kernel, console operating system and all of its individual guests. eG agents only need be installed on the ESX Servers – not on each guest. Using ESX Server APIs, the eG agents provide an “outside view” of a guest’s performance. Relative resource usage levels of guests show where performance hogs may lie. To complement the outside view, the eG agent obtains an “inside view” that details user activity (desktop/VDI), resource allocation and the application mix running inside the guest system.

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!
