By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: July 3, 2014

With the time and new patches installed to Windows installations, the Windows WinSxS folder present since W7, W2008, W8 and in W8.1 gets more and more “fat” and takes valuable space.

vSphere Public Beta – With VVols!

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: December 17, 2020

vSphere public beta. The next release. It’s quite unusual for VMware as previous years the beta stayed private (except for VSAN, during the beta stage perhaps). VMware has made a public beta of vSphere available to anyone who wish to join. While the vSphere beta IS public (anyone can join) it’s also a strictly confidential. […]

List of VMware Reviewer’s Guides – Free How-to Guides With Graphics

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: February 21, 2020

I thought that it might be a good idea to gather a list some available VMware Reviewer’s guides.  The reviewers guides are a good “tools” when learning new product by installing it in a home lab or as a POC project. Reviewer’s guides (or sometimes called evaluator’s guides or deployment guides) are step-by-step PDFs how-to’s. The evaluator’s guides […]

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: November 15, 2022

Since the release of WordPress 3.9 the advanced options for images are gone. It’s no longer possible to use the previous options which allowed to put margins and padding, or image border. In the old version you click on an image, click advanced settings and here you go, you can edit image properties – border, vertical space, […]

VyOS – Vyatta Open Source

By Vladan SEGET | Last Updated: January 11, 2019

If you ever used Vyatta before or not, It’s worth to test it. During a long time, there was Vyatta as an OpenSource router/firewall. I just recently discovered that Vyatta is no more and that Vyata’s Brocade acquisition stopped further availability. This led to new free VyOS, which is a free and opensource version of Vyatta […]
