Hi Jase.

Just wanted to let you know that an updated version of the Isilon-vSphere 5 best practices guide was published in April. It adds more links to useful documentation and corrects a few errors that I found after the initial publication. It can be downloaded from the Isilon online library here:

Good information.

If I recall, there was a cost associated with TZO.

I used TZO.com years ago at a previous employer. It worked very well, no complaints.

Thanks,
Jase

to access your storgae device through your ipad1 ,2 & 3
if you setup an TZO domian name its really easy
1. on ipad on upiomega link app
2. click add server manually
3. click select preference
4. select TZO domain name
5. enter your full domain name that it asigned you. “fakename.iomegalink.com”
6.enter username and password registared with the TZO and you are ready to access on 3g or wifi I was even able to work of my hotspot sprint htc signal

much easier than trying to run all the ports and going through the ip

Comment on Free load balancer (possible connection broker) for VDI by jase

I don’t have it in production.

As I understand it, the project is no longer being developed.

@ajd4096

Any chance you could provide some documentation/configuration on how you have it deployed?

Like all of the “blanks” that are in the configuration above?

I would really like to help a school roll this out, but I don’t want to put it in place if it isn’t “ready for prime time”, and by what you are saying, it certainly could be if the right configuration is performed.

Thanks,

Good article, Jase. Explains a lot about how this works, and seems to temper many of the shortcomings of NFS v3 on vSphere.

Sorry I haven’t had the opportunity to test your code…

I’ll see if I can whip something up…
