Taking the week off from Twitter. Doing a big VMWare install this week, need to focus.

RT @Vaughn_Stewart: New post on I/O efficiency. http://blogs.netapp.com/virtual... <--Great read! #netapp
@scott_lowe I have it! Very good stuff that will be mentioned in an upcoming blog article! ;)
@colinmcnamara If they had that, our company would end up firing me...
@mburns1214 Wow! Hope those Blade Servers still work!
Ran Across a #NetApp blog on DeDupe by Larry Feeeman. Good Read: http://blogs.netapp.com/drdedup...
@geekpug Start with ONTAP Fundamentals if you need it and go from there: http://now.netapp.com/oberr... #netapp
I traded in my World of Warcraft addiction for an iPod App addiction. Can't stop downloading games...
@gabvirtualworld Our customers see 75% dedupe savings on average
@gabvirtualworld There is also a tool you can run to give you estimate on your data but you need to be a partner to get access to the tool
@maishsk We have many customers doing dedupe and esx. Dedupe ranges from 75% to 91%! #netapp
Does anybody see a use for Dynamic Disks in Windows VM's? It turns out you can't align them on Netapp so why do you need them anymore?
@rick_vmwaretips I wouldn't take what I "think" I know as the truth! ;) That is what I was told by NetApp, I'll check!
@rick_vmwaretips The Dedupe process is a batch process but the checking if a block is eligible happens all the time
@rick_vmwaretips I was told it was because of the fingerprinting process dedupe does to analyze if a block is eligible for dedupe.
@bgracely @rogerlund I also find the DeDupe FAQ useful (NetApp Login Required): http://communities.netapp.com/docs...
@bgracely Thanks Brian! Good to hear from you! We need to get our better halves and go to dinner again.
@rogerlund dm me you e-mail and I'll shoot you some more info
@rogerlund It's all in the NetApp dedupe TR, I think. I'll send you a link in the morning. Not in front of the laptop now.
@rogerlund Only a small performance hit when it is doing dedupe. Done Sat and Sun @ 12:00am by default.
In NetApp NCDA Boot Camp all week - getting ready to sip from the ONTAP firehose.
Great Way to Export Out IP Addresses before a P2V Migration - Aaron Delp
Reading The Hobbit using eReader on the iPod. Very cool program!
Taking my better half out for a nice dinner! We need some us time!
Only 2 more days until True Blood!
@rogerlund what storage are you connecting too? I know on NetApp you need to give the NFS kernel port root access or you will get that
Playing around with Toodledo for to-do's. Very nice and has iPod/iPhone client!
