What is Storage Replica? – Windows Server 2016

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: February 15, 2017

Runecast Analyzer Product Review

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: October 31, 2017

Runecast UI login

Another interesting review today – Runecast analyzer. If you don’t know Runecast analyzer just yet, I’d highly recommend taking a look as there is no equivalent. Runecast analyzer checks your environment and compares the state for misconfiguration, security or performance issues with current VMware KB articles. Every week VMware releases new KB articles and those are downloaded […]
