Veeam monitor for ESX is available!

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. 16, 2007 — Veeam Software has added a third commercial product to its management suite for VMware Infrastructure 3 (Vi3) environments. Veeam Monitor, introduced at VMworld last month, is now generally available. With agentless monitoring and alerting designed specifically for ESX enterprise environments, support for troubleshooting, trending and capacity planning, Veeam Monitor helps IT professionals proactively manage ESX Server system performance.

"Monitoring is an important capability to round out our VMware management suite," said Ratmir Timashev, Veeam president and CEO. "While VMware VirtualCenter offers some similar functionality, our interface enhances and extends VirtualCenter by combining several types of data into a single, intuitive GUI. This makes system performance data more accessible and saves time for administrators.

"Veeam Monitor also offers trend reporting and performance-related alerts," Timashev continued. "We are actively soliciting feedback from our customers on exactly what types of alerts they want to see added to future versions of the product." In addition, Veeam Monitor can provide agentless monitoring, alerting and reporting on ESX servers in small datacenters or development labs running without VirtualCenter.

Pricing and Availability
Veeam Monitor 1.0 is available immediately, with North American pricing starting at $120 USD per CPU. Discounts are available when purchased with other Veeam products. For more information or to download the product, visit http://www.veeam.com/veeam_monitor_vi.asp.

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
