Jeremy Tirrel posted a script to do a zero downtime snapshot based XenServer 5.5 backup. It is a cool script, however looking at his blog post alone it does not all make sense, so make sure you download the zip-file and take a look at the cool scripts in there. Jeremy’s blogpost can be found [...]

A lot of stuff is going on with the announcement that XenServer is now free… or the free version delivers a lot more functionality anyway than the free hypervisors have been doing so far. I hope we will see VMware joining in and giving us more of their management tools for free as well. To [...]
Oh boy have i been busy lately, hopefully i will have a bit more time in the coming weeks, one of the things i regret was being unable to attend the Geek Speak Virtual on Project Virtual Reality Check which i mentioned earlier.
