Have you ever had to perform a large number of vol moves in order to evacuate or decommission an aggregate? This week I had to evacuate about 50+ volumes from an aggregate that is being decommissioned. Instead of typing out the vol move command 50+ times I decided to automate it with Powershell.
If you followed my last post where I created an Ansible Playbook to complete a full setup of a NetApp simulator, you would have seen that it was one gigantic playbook.
Last month, I decided it was time to get my hands dirty and jump right into learning some Ansible Automation with NetApp.
Today has been the release of NetApp Ontap 9.6 RC2 and what better way to get familiar with it than to run it up in the lab as a simulator.
In this video tutorial, I walk you through how to set up a fully functional VMware vSphere 6.7 Lab within your home pc utilizing VMware Workstation.
I saved a tweet a while back from William Lam about the ability to send keystrokes to a VM via PowerCLI. The first thing that popped into mind is “Automating a nested ESXi installation”. As you could imagine this would be extremely convenient in spinning up a new VMware Lab.
I came across this error the other day in my lab and luckily there is a quick fix for it so I could proceed to backup my VMware VCSA server
Today I wanted to bring you a quick video to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Within this video tutorial, I guide you through how to upgrade an ESXi 6.5 host to ESXi 6.7. Within my lab I have 2 x ESXi 6.5 Update 2 hosts managed by vCenter 6.7 Update 1. The first host I will upgrade using VMware Update Manager, the second host I will upgrade via the CLI.
