Boomers to This Year's Grads: We Are Really, Really Sorry
In 1969, baby boomers took podiums at college graduations around the country and pledged to redefine the world in their image.
Forty years later, they have, and now they are apologizing for it. Their collective advice for the class of 2009: Don't be like us.

Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels
Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, 60 years old, told the graduating class of Butler University last month that boomers have been "self-absorbed, self-indulgent and all too often just plain selfish."
New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman, 55, told Grinnell College graduates in Iowa that his was "the grasshopper generation, eating through just about everything like hungry locusts."

Overview of Hyper-V in Windows Server 2008
Hyper-V is the hypervisor-based virtualization technology that helps you make the best use of your server hardware resources. The main role of the hypervisor is to provide strong separation between the parent and child partitions. The parent partition is responsible for providing virtualization services to the child partition. Each child partition contains independent guest operating systems. With the help of the architectural features such as VSPs, VSCs, VM Service, VM Worker process, and VMBus, Hyper-V provides improved performance and security. The main usage scenarios of Hyper-V are server consolidation, business continuity and disaster recovery, test and development, and dynamic datacenters.

ok I think I've had enough Microsoft propaganda for the day!!

Physical memory on the host computer is the main limiting factor that determines the number of virtual machines that can run simultaneously. The virtual machines share this physical memory with the parent partition.
Memory requirements are typically 512 MB for the parent partition, the allocated memory for each child partition, and a further 32 MB overhead for each child partition. Therefore, a child partition that has 256 MB of allocated virtual RAM requires a host that has at least (512 + (256 + 32)) = 800 MB of RAM. Hyper-V supports up to 64 GB of RAM for each child partition and up to 2 TB of physical RAM for each host.

So I'm a contractor here.. A friend of mine that I play golf with and stuff just got hired on internally which is pretty sweet.. I can't say I'm not jealous at all cause I am but I'm also happy for him.. Hopefully having someone as an internal will help me in the long run :)

I honestly have no idea how I'm going to make it through the day tomorrow.. Today was hard enough and it's still not over..

Rapidly changing business needs and usage can lead to frequent changes in network utilization. To meet these requirements, you can implement a dynamic IT environment. A dynamic IT environment runs multiple virtual machines on several servers. The management logic of this environment automatically manages the virtual machines according to the network traffic. This helps in maintaining high hardware utilization and low maintenance costs of the servers. Hyper-V helps in implementing and managing a dynamic IT environment easily

Clustering and Backup in Virtual Environments
What Is Clustering in a Virtual Environment?
TranscriptClustering in a virtual environment can be of two main types: parent clustering and child clustering.
Parent clustering uses two physical computers, and both host operating systems must run the Failover Clustering service.
The clustered child virtual machines run on the parent computer, either in the active-passive mode with one node on standby or in the active-active mode with both nodes running applications.
If a parent node fails, the Failover Clustering service fails over all of the virtual machines from the failed node to the healthy node.
In child clustering, virtual machines run either on one or more host computers.
The difference is that in child clustering, each child operating system runs the Failover Clustering service and monitors the clustered applications or services locally.
If a clustered application or service fails, the Failover Clustering service fails over the application or service to the other child node in the same way as hardware-based clustering.
Parent clustering has the advantage that the virtualized applications, network services, or operating systems do not have to be cluster-aware, because the failover process occurs at the virtual machine level.
However, with child clustering, the child operating system must support Failover Clustering.
You can combine parent and child clustering to provide seamless transfer of network services, applications, and virtual images between virtual machines and between physical computer nodes.
For both parent and child clustering, iSCSI-based storage provides the best storage solution.
With iSCSI, you can remove the two-node restrictions from older technologies, such as parallel SCSI connections, and use eight-way clustering. iSCSI also matches multiple virtual machines to different storage locations.

So how many people are actually still awake here?? haha

A virtual network consists of one or more virtual machines that can be configured to access network resources.
Depending on the configuration of your virtual network, you can choose to connect virtual machines only to an internal network, a small subnet of the internal network, or they can be connected only to the Internet.
There are three types of configurations for virtual networks: private, internal, and external.
The private virtual network provides connectivity strictly between virtual machines. In this type of network, the virtual machines have no connectivity with the parent partition. You can use private networks when you need virtual machines to be completely isolated from external and parent partition traffic.
The internal virtual network provides network connectivity between virtual machines and the parent partition. Such a network is useful in cases where virtual machines can access the network only through the parent partition.
The external virtual network helps you establish connectivity with a physical adapter on the server, so that the virtual machines can access a physical network. For such networks, it is important that you decide which physical network adapter in the server should connect to the virtual network.
