Italian distros are for Italians only ! Lol. Jokes apart. I think, in the lab, I let it boot into Italian (haven’t seen other options), and then for the install, swapped into English. I think the Italians try to impose their culture a bit too much -:). Enjoy.

Davide,

You perhaps missunderstood my phrase. Never meant people to think that VCDX was some kind or recognition title. It’s one of the hardests certification indeed! Best of luck for you.

Thanks Michael,
Yes, the true is that we’ll never get any younger -:) Time just flies.

VCDX is (was) not recognition, it was a hard technical and architectural certification where at the end of the journey you had to defend your enterprise ready design and convinced other three VCDX panelists that you are good enough to be the member of elite group of VMware Architects.

I achieve it in 2015, 9 years after daily VMware and infrastructure consulting for Dell and Cisco Consulting for customers across the region.

Yes. Virtual Infrastructure 3.0 back in 2006 was the first production and enterprise ready server virtualization.

I immediately recognized its potential and benefits and also started my blog back in 2006. All VMware related articles are now at https://vcdx200.uw.cz

I have other blogs under uw.cz and allarticles are aggregated at https://blog.uw.cz

I was vExpert for multiple years. Yes, vExpert was recognition and award. It was about evangelism and community spirit. These days are gone.

Thatโ€™s why I do not participate in vExpert program anymore. However, it was amazing journey. Now it is the right time to find another community.

I can remember that in my early days in virtualization I found a lot of helpful tutorials and infirmation on your blog. It was a pleasure meeting you in person a couple of years later ( I think it was New Orleans). I was surprised, that this famous blogger (yes) turned out to be a modest and 'down to earth' guy. I'm also looking back with a smile to these countless hours we shared in the blogging area of VMworld or chatting in Tapas Bars in Barcelona. Great times! I hope to meet you soon somwhere on a conference or just anywhere. ๐Ÿ™‚ All the best my friend! Michael]]> 17 years !?

Hi Martin,

Well, most likely, with the release of v13, the old beta is gone -:)… Must wait for official release a new version (hopefully with the XCP-NG plugin in it) ….
