4 Configuring Networking & Virtual Switches
Once installed, the first step with any ESX rollout is involved with correctly configuring its network connections. An ESX server tends to use a far greater number of NICs than a traditional physical server. This means that keeping each connection straight is important. In this nugget, you’ll learn about the three types of connections as well as where they make sense to implement.

5 Connecting to & Working with Storage
Fibre Channel, iSCSI, DAS, NFS: ESX can leverage many different types of storage. And while each storage type might look similar in ESX’s management GUI, they all have their idiosyncrasies. This nugget explores each of the different types of storage, and provides a detailed walk-through of configuring iSCSI storage. Following along with your own environment? Don’t fear: You’ll learn about some free tools that enable easily creating your own shared storage.

7 Installing vCenter Server
Getting a single ESX server installed builds you a starter environment for your virtual infrastructure. But to go much beyond one or two ESX servers, you really need added management automation. Get that with vCenter Server. This nugget explores the installation of vCenter Server, as well as its prerequisites and the architectural decisions you’ll need to make prior to dropping its DVD into your drive.

13 Working with ESX Host Profiles
Are you suffering under the weight of compliance regulations? Do you need to work overtime to maintain a baseline of configurations? If you do, then you’ll appreciate ESX Host Profiles. This feature creates an automated baseline of a “golden” ESX server, allowing you to compare every other ESX host against its reference profile. The result is a quick-and-easy solution for identifying where configurations aren’t correct, and a boon for large environments who must follow baselines.

14 Working with vCenter Update Manager
Updating ESX and vCenter was easy when there weren’t many patches. But as the product grew and developed, its required number of patches also grew in size. Thus, the reason for vCenter Update Manager. This tool creates baselines of patches, deploying those which are missing to hosts that need them. Better yet, you can use Update Manager to patch your virtual machines as well, installing patches for OS updates as well as some notable applications. Very powerful this tool.

16 Virtual Machine Backup & Restore
Converting physical machines to virtual improves their backups while it at the same time complicates their backups. When you work with virtual machines, the “perspectives” from where your backups are sourced grow in number. You need to know the best practices for backups, as well as the tools with which to accomplish those backups. In this nugget, you’ll see the VMware Backup Appliance as well as discuss other solutions with greater capabilities.

18 vCenter Server Performance Management & Alarms
It has been said that performance management is one of the most important parts of virtual infrastructure management. When you consolidate many physical hosts to few virtual hosts, you get greater optimization of resource use; but you also get a greater chance for resource overuse as well. You need to pay attention to your performance through real-time graphs and alerts if you’re to be successful. Learn exactly how in this nugget.

19 Configuring Security & Access Control in vCenter Server
You’re probably not the only member of your IT department, and as such you’re probably not the only person who will need access to your vSphere environment. Nailing down users, roles, rights, and permissions is easy in vCenter, if you know the tricks. In this nugget, you’ll learn about the two entirely-separate permissions structures that must remain in synch, as well as how to assign permitted activities to users.

Partitioning Hard Drive in Windows 7 Without Formatting
Partitioning Hard Drive in Windows 7 Without Formatting
At once a new window will open entitled “Computer Management“. In this new window click on “ Storage ” and then go to “ Disk Management “.
The completion of the second step will give you a view of all the drives present in your computer.
Among these select the one you want to partition. Then right-click on the selected drive and navigate to the option ” Shrink Volume.. “.
A new window should open in which the size of the drive before shrink will be mentioned and the available space to shrink will be mentioned , and in the next line you will be asked to enter the amount of space you want to shrink and this will be the size of the new partition.
Caution : The space you enter must be within the limit of the available space displayed above.
After entering the values click on the option “ Shrink ” and wait for the process to complete. The time taken for the operation may be long depending upon the size of the disk and the space to be shrunk. Once the operation is completed a window appears showing unallocated space and the value is exactly the one you entered earlier. Select this unallocated space and on right clicking on it click on the option “ New Simple Volume “.
A wizard will open up. Go through the wizard and fill in the values required. Usually the value needed to enter is the same one that you entered as the volume to be shrunk.
The drive newly created needs a letter to be assigned to it. Assign any letter of your choice as it does not make any difference.
A Format page will appear and in it carefully notice that the File System selected is “ NTFS ” . After this is done enter a name for your drive and then click on ” Next ” and then “ Finish “.
* Update: This article was written on the basis of a test in Windows 7 Ultimate version. But after getting the readers feedback, it seems that the procedure does not work fine in the other versions of Windows 7 like Home Premium etc. So please make sure that you are using Windows 7 ultimate before applying this method to partition the hard drive.
** Update: While the procedure works fine in Windows 7 Ultimate version, it does not work in Windows 7 home, starter or other versions properly if the number of partitions exceeds 4. That means if you try to create a new partition that is no. 5 in your hard disk, this process will not work otherwise it will work fine. So if you are in Windows 7 Home or starter edition, make sure that your total no of partition is three before you go for a new partition.
The above solution was made by one of our reader Hide.
So you have to make sure your unallocated drive is not no.5. I had to merge move files from recovery drive somewhere else and merge it with the unallocated one. After that I just followed everything here and it worked like magic. Hope this helps.
Create Multiboot USB Drive: Install Windows 7, XP From Same USB Drive
Install Windows 7, XP From Same USB Drive

How To Reinstall Windows 7 Without Changing Your Personal Settings, Installed Programs & Drivers
Windows 7
Windows has a tendency to accumulate errors and problems over time. While some of this virtual wear and tear can be delayed by rigorous system maintenance and keeping malware at the gate, the time will come when you will be forced to reinstall your system.
A Windows re-installation is a tedious process. It takes time and once the new installation is in place, you essentially start from scratch. Your user files are wiped and have to be restored, programs need to be re-installed, and personal preferences have to be set up all over again. Since the ‘perfect setup’ is a work in progress, driven by all sorts of updates and new gadgets, creating an image of your operating system is a waste of time. And as time goes by, the nightmare will start all over again. Except if there was a way to re-install your operating system and fix system-based issues without losing all your stuff….Starting with Windows XP, Microsoft has been offering what is called a “non-destructive reinstall ability” for Windows. It is a way of re-installing the operating system without changing user data, settings, and preferences, including installed programs and drivers. After re-installing Windows with this method, you will log onto your account as if nothing had happened, except that all system files were ‘updated’, which almost equals a fresh installation.
Preface: What You Need
- Windows 7 installation DVD.
- original 25-character product key.
- minimum 12,869MB free space on system drive (C:)
- bootable Windows 7 installation.
For the non-destructive installation to work, you must be able to boot into Windows 7 full, not Safe Mode. I also highly recommend to prepare a backup of your data before you attempt to re-install.
Step 1: Uninstall Service Pack 1
Running SP1 can cause issues when performing a non-destructive re-installation with an installation DVD that does not contain SP1. It is thus recommended to uninstall SP1 before you proceed.- Go to > Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features or > Programs > Uninstall a Program.
- In the left-hand side click > View installed updates
- Select > Service Pack for Microsoft Windows (KB976932) and click > Uninstall.
Step 2: Run Setup In Compatibility Mode :
his step is optional. You can skip it and return to it if needed. The pre-installation compatibility report might not let you proceed due to the following issue:
Your current version of Windows is more recent than the version you are trying to upgrade to. Windows cannot complete upgrade.To avoid this error :
- Go to > Computer, right-click on the installation DVD and select > Open.
- Right-click on > setup.exe and choose > Properties.
- Switch to the > Compatibility tab and check > Run this program in compatibility mode for:Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) from the list. and pick >
- Click > OK and double-click > setup.exe to launch the installation.
Step 3: Run Setup
When you run the setup.exe from the DVD, Windows will ask whether you want to allow the program to make changes to your computer. Click > Yes to proceed.
In the next windows click > Install now to start the installation.
Windows setup will now proceed with copying temporary files and running a compatibility check. When presented with the first selection screen (see screenshot below), select the first option to > go online and get the latest updates, then > accept the license terms and press > Next to continue.
Key Step: Select Upgrade Installation Type
Select > Upgrade when asked which type of installation you want.
You are not actually upgrading, but rather installing the same operating system over your existing installation. However, since you selected upgrade, your files, settings, and programs will be left alone. The installation takes about an hour and will re-boot your system several times during the process.
Aftermath: Run Updates, Upgrade Internet Explorer & Install SP1
Several things were changed when your system was upgraded. You were reverted to the Service Pack version on your installation DVD (likely pre-SP1) and Internet Explorer was downgraded to version 8 (in case you were running IE9).Go to > Start > Control Panel > Windows Update or > System and Security > Windows UpdateInstall updates. You will have to reboot and go through this process several times to bring your system up to date. If you don’t see any updates, click on > Check for updates on the left-hand side. and click on >
The entire update procedure took me around 90 minutes, which was a lot faster and a lot less hassle than a complete re-installation. What are your experiences with the process?

Enable Telnet in windows 7
It’s very rare that I use Telnet these days, so it took a long time for me to notice that by default it was not packaged with Windows 7. I did some research and found out that this was also true for Windows Vista. More than likely this was an attempt to make Windows more secure by default, as Telnet is very insecure and whenever you have the choice you should always use SSH. However, with that being said, you can quickly re-enable Telnet by following these steps:
- Start
- Control Panel
- Programs And Features
- Turn Windows features on or off
- Check Telnet Client
- Hit OK

How To View Passwords Hidden Behind Asterisk Characters
How To View Passwords Hidden Behind Asterisk Characters
Say you’ve taken on a new job and you find that the fellow (or fellows) doing the job before have never documented their passwords for the many applications you need to do your job. Purely hypothetical, I’m sure it NEVER happens.
Let’s also say that you have a major update to do and you can’t get a hold of the web host to change the password, because it’s 4:59pm on a Friday. What on earth can you do?
Well, let me point out a few tools that will allow you view passwords behind asterisk characters and let your employers know they have the übergeek for the job!
View One Hidden Asterisk Password at a Time
Most of the programs I came across worked the same way ““ open the locked program, open the password revealer, click on a button called ‘password reveal’ or some similar thing, then get the password.
Asterisk Key from Passware is one such solution. It will run on Windows 2000/NT/XP/2003/Vista and requires 64MB of RAM and at least a Pentium 300 processor. Seriously, if you don’t have at least that, send me a self-addressed stamped envelope and I’ll print you a copy of this article. You’ll get it faster.
What you’ll notice at first is that this is a piece of loss-leader software from a company that would like to sell you their other wares. Nothing wrong with that.
That’s great, but what if you have several applications from which you need to recover and view password fields? That’s where I find this next piece of freeware to be most useful.
Reveal Multiple Hidden Passwords
Asterisk Logger from NirSoft makes the process of recovering multiple passwords that are hiddent behind asterisk characters very easy. It works on Windows 9x, ME, 2000 and XP and with a little tweaking it will work on NT. I’m not sure about Vista, since I never made that leap.
The feature of Asterisk Logger that puts it above other asterisk revealer freeware is the fact that it logs the passwords AND shows the password in plain text right in the program you are using. Simply open up Asterisk Logger and start using those programs that you forgot the password for. Below you can see how Asterisk Logger reveals the password right in the program you are using as well as in Asterisk Logger.
After a session on the computer with Asterisk Logger open, you can save the log to a text file to refer to it later. But remember to not tell anyone where the list is ““ that’s called job security!
Asterisk Logger does not work well with instant messenging applications though. But NirSoft has a pill for that too.
Reveal Instant Messenger Passwords
Yes, I am a NirSoft fanboy. If it works, it works. I searched for and tested others specifically designed for instant messaging (IM) software. They either weren’t really freeware or seemed sketchy.
MessenPass works.
“How well, Guy?”, you inquire. Well, I hate instant messaging so I haven’t used mine in about a year or so. I installed and fired up MessenPass and it not only found the password I was looking for, but an account I forgot I even made and its password as well.
Well, now you know my MSN username, so go ahead and add me. I probably won’t respond though. I am to IM what the old guy with the shotgun full of rock salt, sitting in a rocking chair, is to meddling kids. Get off my IM! Dagnabbit!!!
Got any other leads on cool freeware apps that reveal what’s behind those asterisks? Love to see them. Any stories about getting snookered by hidden passwords? I’d love to read those too.
