VMware Virtualization blogging from Mumbai: VMware VI3.5 training!

This is live blogging from Mumbai (Oh, BTW for my geographically challenged friends, it is in India :-)):

This week I am coordinating a training for our staff (12 VMware trainees) with HP India for VMware 3.5 Install and Configure. As you may have known the instal and configure training has the coolest new features called:

VUM (VMware Update Manager)
Storage VMotion
and lots more!!!


Why you need to follow VMware training?

- You get to take the hottest industry level standard certification program caled VCP (VMware Certified Professional)
- When you have a VCP, you can also apply for the VCDE, which will soon be available.

So go to the nearest educational institution and get your VMware training now!

P.S: And you can be anywhere in the world, you'd be surprised how fast and quick VMware can get you in the training program. Check out VMware's educational site here.

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...
