I did use the RVtools helper app for my 3.02 > 3.5 upgrade. It was useful to have a quick glance at all the vmware guests. The only communication I've had with NEVMUG is by email or the VMware community. I've included the link here for the RSS feed of the NEVMUG community. <a href="http://communities.vmware.com/community/feeds/allcontent;jsessionid=02CCBC39CA7936ED5DEA1D2438D1BC8C?communityID=2241" rel="nofollow">http://communities.vmware.com/community/feeds/allcontent;jsessionid=02CCBC39CA7936ED5DEA1D2438D1BC8C?communityID=2241</a> Sounds like you've inherited quite the infrastructure. Embrace the tools you have, us virtualization admins enjoy many benefits that physical servers just can't compare with...unless your impressed by idle cpu's :-) Are you attending VMworld? I've found the sessions useful so far. Thanks for stopping by. I did use the RVtools helper app for my 3.02 > 3.5 upgrade. It was useful to have a quick glance at all the vmware guests.

Tom, I just found your blog from NEVMUG over at VMware.com. I just inherited a multi-site six ESX server environment. I'm relatively new (in a production environment) to ESX and completely new to fiber channel HBA's and EMC SAN storage. I have been buried in VMware and EMC documentation. Not mention following the Train Signal videos. Any advice for a fellow Mainer? During a training session today I found out that you can upgrade your VMware tools across VM Guest OS's by using the Virtual Infrastructure Client vmware-vmupgrade command line tool. Does the NEVMUG have an RSS feed so I can keep up with upcoming meetings? I'd like to attend if possible. I think I just missed one last week. A very useful tool, tool.
