Sean, what is your asking price for the lab? > > I'm selling my Cisco lab. Before I put it on eBay, I thought I'd ask if > anyone locally was interested.

MUUG Meeting, Jan 9, 7:30pm -- IBM Server Virtualization with VMware ESX
by gedetil＠cs.umanitoba.ca 03 Jan '07

03 Jan '07

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly meeting on Tuesday, January 9. The meeting topic for this month is as follows: IBM Server Virtualization with VMware ESX Scott Jordan, IBM's Technical Support for the Prairies System x Sales Team, will talk about IBM blade server technology, and demo VMware ESX. Larger disk arrays, faster processors, and more dense memory packaging is making virtualization a very attractive solution for running multiple operating systems on one hardware platform. Add this to the centralized management, redundancy, and high availability features of VMware and you have a powerful business solution. Come and see Scott put his pet "rack" through its paces. The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of every month from September to June. (There are no meetings in July and August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a MUUG member to attend. ********************************************************************** Please note our meeting location: The IBM offices, at 400 Ellice Ave. (between Edmonton and Kennedy). When you arrive, you will have to sign in at the reception desk, and then wait for someone to take you (in groups) to the meeting room. Please try to arrive by about 7:15pm, so the meeting can start promptly at 7:30pm. Don't be late, or you may not get in. (But don't come too early either, since security may not be there to let you in before 7:15 or so.) Limited parking is available for free on the street, either on Ellice Ave. or on some of the intersecting streets. Indoor parking is also available nearby, at Portage Place, for $3.00 for the evening. Bicycle parking is available in a bike rack under video surveillance located behind the building on Webb Place. ********************************************************************** For more information about MUUG, and its monthly meetings, check out their Web server: http://www.muug.mb.ca/ Also note that MUUG maintains two mailing lists, called "muug-announce" and "roundtable". If you're not already on these lists, we encourage you to subscribe now: http://www.muug.mb.ca/mailman/listinfo/ The "muug-announce" list is used for monthly meeting announcements (such as this one) as well as other important announcements of interest to MUUG members. The "rountable" list is meant to be a forum for follow-ups to topics discussed at the meetings, or for round-table-style discussion on other topics that come up between meetings. Of course, for this to be effective, we need to reach a certain critical mass. So, please subscribe, and stay involved! -- Gilbert E.
