openQRM 3.5 released: Control your heterogenous virtualization jungle

Qlusters is pleased to announce the contribution of openQRM 3.5 open source release to the openQRM SourceForge project. The 3.5 open source release succeeds release 3.1.4 and includes a set of new features based on input from various datacenters and test/dev labs. Release 3.5 is available for download now.

It has been pleasing and rewarding to see the openQRM project grow rapidly since its launch in January 2006, including winning SourceForge’s “Project of The Month” in July 2006. The 120,000 downloads to date are the basis for numerous openQRM implementations in datacenters globally, and the many articles published in the industry discussing openQRM have established it as one of the leading open source solutions for systems provisioning and management.

Following release 3.5 – the last release from Qlusters – we hope the community will continue to evolve and develop openQRM together with Matt Rechenburg – openQRM’s active project manager, who has been doing a wonderful job not just in driving the community but also in evangelizing and promoting openQRM throughout the industry. Qlusters would like to wish the openQRM project community, and Matt Rechenburg, a future of prosperity and continued success.

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
