Colin Bragg | 18 Nov 2011 | 0 comments

Vbscripts are not currently natively supported as Wise Composer event scripts but composer created packages are capable of running a script via the wscript/csript engine.  The following how-to article documents how to set up your event scripts and your vbscript to work correctly without the need to 'wrap' it within a batch file:

HTML5 rules
erikw | 17 Nov 2011 | 0 comments

Me and my team worked several weeks on html5 technology to get access to VDi images from a remote location without having the need to install software. And wow that rocks.

HTMl5 gives people some very cool ways in doing their work.

Can you imagine starting Excell on an iPad?

Or using flash? On an iPad?

Although tablets are not really designed for running desktops on them, just think about the lack of a keyboard, the results are very promising.

If you want to experience a Full Windows 7 desktop on an iPad with html5 technology, pm me and I will send you an account that you can use.

Now Virtualization is really going to break through as more and more barriers are taken away.

USB Swiss Army Knife: Parkdale, Drive Speed Tester
riva11 | 08 Nov 2011 | 1 comment

Parkdale, free and portable utility to quickly perform a speed test on disks, cdroms and network shares. Helpful to investigate how and where are bottlenecks in local and network connections.

The program has two different modes:

BlockAccess - The test data is read from/written onto the disk directly without using the filesystem.
FileAccess - The test data is read from/written into a normal file using the filesystem.

What once started as a website for Virtualization nerds has become the huge Symantec community of today

What once started as a website for Virtualization nerds has become the huge Symantec community of today.

I can still remember the day's that Altiris Juice started. What a cool idea to reward contributors and give space for those nerds.

And wow.

Looking at my stats I just saw that within three weeks i will be celebrating my 5 year membership:

Member for: 4 years 49 weeks
 

If I think about this, there is no other webiste that I visit and contribute to as long as what i still call juice.

And that is what it is for me

for almost 5 year Symantec connect gives me juice in my work.

 

Keep up the good work.
