VMware Event: Simplified Server and Storage Consolidation with Xiotech Magnitude 3D and VMware Virtual Infrastructure 3

The focus of this webcast is to assist in eliminating the fear of complexity that integrating a SAN and VMware environment often creates.

This webcast will highlight:

* Installation ease of use and painless storage management
* On the fly additions of servers and storage
* Simplified provisioning and managing of storage-on either an iSCSI or Fibre Channel platform.

This webcast also will discuss native redundancy, as well as integration with VMware VMotion, DRS, and HA to create a breadth of highly available environments. The target audience is first time SAN buyers and those who are looking to move from server attached storage. The solution focus is Enterprise Version of VI3.


Painless huh? Anyways check out the event and enroll now.

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.

OS Virtualization comparison: Parallels' Virtuozzo vs the rest

Virtuozzo's main differentiators versus hypervisors center on overhead, virtualization flexibility, administration and cost. Virtuozzo requires significantly less overhead than hypervisor solutions, generally in the range of 1% to 5% compared with 7% to 25% for most hypervisors, leaving more of the system available to run user workloads. Customers can also virtualize a wider range of applications using Virtuozzo, including transactional databases, which often suffer from performance problems when used with hypervisors. On the administration side, customers need to manage, maintain and secure just a single OS instance, while the hypervisor model requires customers to manage many OS instances. Of course, the hypervisor vendors have worked hard to automate much of this process, but it still requires more effort to manage and maintain multiple operating systems than a single instance. Finally, OS virtualization with Virtuozzo has a lower list price than the leading hypervisor for comme...
