First steps into VCDX6-NV Wow! This has been quite a journey. After I achieved my first VCDX on DCV, I was pretty soon looking at the VCDX6-NV blueprint and quietly developed the ambition of shooting for the double. I’m in the luxury position of working at ITQ so I didn’t have to convince anyone at ...
After upgrading to vRealize Operations Manager 7.5, my next task at hand was upgrading to vRealize Network Insight (vRNI) 4.1.

When trying to patch my vSphere environment using VMware Update Manager (VUM), my remediation pre-check fails because the vSAN Health Services are reporting an error. This short blogpost explains how to silence a vSAN Health Check: Since the ESXi servers are nested VMs, the ...
In my previous blogpost, I explained how to remove a failed PKS cluster by removing the BOSH deployment using the BOSH CLI. Removing the BOSH deployment does not remove the NSX-T objects however. Manually deleting these NSX-T objects using the GUI is prohibited because these objects are supposed to be managed by PKS and are ...
