How to remove Runecast

Runecast is not an app that I suspect will be removed very often - the value it provides is significant.  But in my case I need to get a screenshot of the install to update my install article. So I thought I  would write down how I uninstall Runecast. This is all done under the … Continue reading How to remove Runecast →

VM takes long time to log into Horizon View

Hello, I recently got Horizon View working in my new lab. But, it takes 5 or 6 minutes to get a desktop when logging in inside my lab.  And logging in outside fails due to the amount of time it takes to get a desktop.

Adding gear to an Eero World

Hello all, When I sold my lab, all I had left was my Eero Wifi stuff.  As I got rid of my DNS and DHCP Eero took that over.  And everything worked really well. But than I had to add a NAS to my home world. That was a little odd. I made it a … Continue reading Adding gear to an Eero World →

Backing Up VCSA in vSphere 7

I need to say first that in vSphere 7 you cannot do image backups of the VCSA.  This means tools like Veeam or Commvault cannot be used.  I suspect if you try to restore it will not work! But this is not so bad as the built-in backup tool for the VCSA has been improved … Continue reading Backing Up VCSA in vSphere 7 →

Installing vRealize Operations v8.01 / 8.1

I wanted this article to be about installing 8.1 but I don't have that from vExpert or anywhere else yet. So 8.01 it is, and I will update as necessary for 8.1 when I have it (it is now updated for 8.1). vRealize Operations is a monitoring and troubleshooting tool.  What really enhances it's power … Continue reading Installing vRealize Operations v8.01 / 8.1 →

iOS 13.4 now GA

Hello all, I have updated one iOS device - an iPhone 11 with no issues. I did not do it over the air but rather through the Catalina Finder.  Which means a much better backup.
