Do you mean anyone can just attend the VCP test, but not certified to be VCP as they have not attend the VMware training? Oh...in my own opinion, I think the tranining is a bit rip off. ha...you know what I mean. >but because of promotion, I think now only slightly expensive I only know Kenfil (HK) offers the VMware training locally http://www.kenfil.com/hk/SubPage.asp?TID=002002, may I know where I can get the promotion or discount? It's quite expensive, HK$39,xxx for all courses. FYI, I just installed Veeam 5, never used it before, it's indeed an excellent product! I've done many research and used Vizioncore's vRanger Pro before. Veeam is simply the best! Way better than crappy vRanger of PHDExpress. I wish one day I can visit Brunei as well, I watched a special program about Brunei on TVB one day, your king really love his people and the welfare is just like in heaven! > I ever pass vcp3 exam but never attend the training

Btw, I am also a beginner as well, you see my blog about EQL and ESX 4.1 only started in recent months, but I am getting a lot of hand-on experience by self learning on the job. :)

I only know Kenfil (HK) offers the VMware training locally http://www.kenfil.com/hk/SubPage.asp?TID=002002, may I know where I can get the promotion or discount? It’s quite expensive, HK$39,xxx for all courses.

FYI, I just installed Veeam 5, never used it before, it’s indeed an excellent product! I’ve done many research and used Vizioncore’s vRanger Pro before. Veeam is simply the best! Way better than crappy vRanger of PHDExpress.

I wish one day I can visit Brunei as well, I watched a special program about Brunei on TVB one day, your king really love his people and the welfare is just like in heaven!

I am not aware that veeam backup 5 already out, because I ever implementing veeam 4.1 for my client. Veeam 4.1 have issue when backup linux os (in my case is TurnKey File Server). Veeam said because too many files in my linux. They said, it will be fixed in Veeam 5. I'll try again with Veeam 5. I am using esx 4.0.1 with vmotion in my company. I ever pass vcp3 exam but never attend the training. Plan to take it in HK. I familiar with it because I am using daily, and because my background in Sun Solaris. Compare to you, I am still beginner. VCP course price in HK previously is much more expensive than in Malaysia, but because of promotion, I think now only slightly expensive Ever been in HK for 6 times. Ever stay in Tin Hao, Causeway Bay, and mostly in Mong Kok. Beautiful country. Love HK very much and start to learn Cantonese in my iPhone, but mostly my friend translate for me. I will be in HK Feb 2010. See you there Emkoi Wow you use veeam too.

Anyway Veeam Backup v5 already set automount to disable, so there is no much to worry about. In fact, I am already using SAN offload feature with Veeam Backup v5 and the speed is AMAZINGLY fast! It's because Equallogic used VAAI to offload the VM snapshot, then send the snapshot to Veeam Backup server for de-duplication and compression where really kicks its CPU to 70-80% (That's a powerful Xeon 56xx CPU), finally it saved the result VBK to local disk, everything is just lightening fast especially with subsequent incremental SAN backup. I can finally use the expensive Equallogic space to store VM only and backup everything to cheap SATA, thank you Veeam!

I have experience with DELL MD3000i. I can't set READONLY in it for specific LAN from specific host. I didn't know that Dell Equallogic can't do that as well. The solution is using QNAP. I never try myself, but I read somewhere, QNAP can do that. http://www.qnap.com/pro_application.asp?ap_id=414 Regards from BRUNEI thanks Hi,
