Mar 28
Sometimes I get caught up with family stuff on the weekends and don’t get to the KB report. So this week I have two weeks worth. Here’s this week’s selection from the 165 KB articles new or updated in the last two weeks:

I’m going to add two points this week to clarify my KB article summary. First off, readers have been asking me, "Where do you get your list of KB articles from?" Well, the answer is quite simple, I go to http://kb.vmware.com, search based on date ranges (typically the last Sunday to Saturday.) Then I comment on how many total articles that were new/updated in the date range. At this point I review all of the articles one by one. I look for articles with 4 or 5 star ratings (anyone can rate them, if you find one you think is good, please rate it appropriately.) I look for ones that have been created new in the past week, those are given some additional preference. I review the ones that have been updated in the last week, I only try to add those if it’s something I get asked about often. Lastly, I look for tips for new VMWare administrators. My site, after all, is "Virtualization for the little guy," many of my customers and readers are new to VMware so I try to point out KB articles that new admins should bookmark and hang onto (troubleshooting, best practices, tips and tricks, etc).
Second point for this week’s review is to let you know that the VMware team also has a blogging site where they do their own weekly review of new articles. You can always check out their weekly report.
Now onto this week’s selection from the 90 new or updated articles for the week ending 3/14/2009. There are a number of new additions on vCenter Heartbeat because it was just released last week.
