It seems today’s lesson learned is, “friends don’t tell friends about $200 light bulbs.” Sorry @ClintDrums.
cakeis_not_alie Dear Monday, we need to see other people. Saturday helped me through some tough times, and I realize I need change. It’s not me, it’s you.
When I read @MacMike’s tweet, my first thought was @BitsandGuns will not be impressed.
@mikestanley look forward to seeing what you do with the Knoxville area VMUG!
Enjoyed talking to @mikestanley this evening at @TNAquarium re: @VMware, @MyVMUG, community involvement, and many things virtual.
Didn’t get to extend in person thanks to @cmmowery and Chad M (MTSU) for being on the #THEITSVDI panel today. Had to run to next session.
Good day at #THEITS15, got to put some faces to some twitter handles.
VMware RT @sweigand: If @VMware, @mesosphere, @coreoslinux, @pivotal, @docker, or #microservices interest you, watch this! vmw.re/1bmiNzL
TTU_CoE TECHx April 27 in Derryberry Auditorium from 5 to 7 p.m. FREE and open to the public #tntech pic.twitter.com/imwVXbBUeT
Hey @MacMike, some news for you. — Haven’t had a chance yet to check any of this out. twitter.com/robbeekmans/st…
@nic_winn seems we just had an excitement break for you. :)
Thanks everyone for a great discussion, #THEITSVDI. Lots of good questions and comments re: #VDI in higher ed.
Getting ready to start the day with the #THEITS15 keynote. Dr. McQueen, Tennessee Department of Education - “Asking the Right Questions”
@dennisgoblu first lesson learned: my single host home lab isn’t beefy enough to run nested ESXi VSAN env very well.
@LisaMarieHall4 Also used for desktop replacement. All cases converting desktop to virt machine in datacenter. Allows for lighter endpoint.
@LisaMarieHall4 Virtual desktop infrastructure. Think the panel ended up mostly being people speaking to lab replacement & BYOD support.
I’ve arrived at #THEITS15. The sun is still up, registration desk was still open, this is not an experience I’m accustom to.
so that’s what an overloaded nested environment looks like…
@mikestanley Sounds good. Haven’t been as much of a daily @OmniFocus user the past couple of years as in the more distant past.
@dennisgoblu a combination of the VMRC and just spending some quality time in with the interface helped me take to the webclient in 5.5.
@dennisgoblu Missed your reply last week, sorry. Agenda for this weekend includes some quality time with #vSphere6 in the home lab.
Interested to see how the multi-school presentations go, do wish it was better reflected in the program. #THEITS15
Hosi is part of a proj mgmt presentation with other schools. In TTU solo pres, Marbin speaks to tech integration into classroom. #THEITS15
Looking forward to hearing from other schools, would feel negligent to not plug some other @tennesseetech presentations at #THEITS15.
Even when I caused my own issue, @MyVMUG staff came through with a solution & took care of things, thanks!
MrAlanCooper BTW, someday is today.
MrAlanCooper People who don’t use metadata cannot understand why anyone would want metadata. Someday you will pay for your foolishness.
Attending #THEITS15 and have questions re: VDI? Tweet them at me with #THEITSVDI and we’ll try to discuss as part of the panel (session 2.3)
Looking forward to panel discussion of #VDI in higher ed at #THEITS15 with @cmmowery & Chad M. Presentation discussion today was great!
Very cool to see list of @twitter using speakers for TN Higher Education IT Symposium (#THEITS15), thanks @nic_winn. mobile.twitter.com/nic_winn/lists…
@iShBuu one day I might understand the logic, but “pool with one display, take all 3 physical displays”, is hard to rationalize.
“and no that’s not my only objection”
Nothing good happens in the moment between when you click on a @vmwarehorizon view pool in the client & when it grabs all of your displays.
Managed to avoid expanding the home lab via @woot today. Didn’t manage to avoid picking up a capacity SSD from @Newegg, however.
@RedHat_Training looking to speak with someone about Red Hat Academy, sent an email > month ago, no reply. Can you connect me with someone?

@UnideskCorp @grouchyCEO @msteague1001 Looking forward to some @unidesk usergroup meetings and seeing some more #Unidesk and #VDI faces.
Tim passed along hellos from several on @UnideskCorp team, remember @grouchyCEO and @msteague1001, know there were more. Hi to everyone!
Enjoyed presenting at the @NashvilleVMUG today. Thanks to @UnideskCorp for the invite to speak and share experience of HigherEd #VDI.
Looks like I missed a good #vBrownBag tonight, will have to catch the recording when posted. twitter.com/kylemurley/sta…
Wondered what it looks like when @kayakerscout tweets & VMUGs at the same time? @KyleAebischer has your answer. twitter.com/KyleAebischer/…

Getting ready to talk #VDI, #Unidesk, and #Layers at #NashvilleVMUG.
made it to six people…
There are four people in the room for the #Horizon6 discussion. This could make my closing presentation interesting. #NashvilleVMUG
Time to get some #EUC on. #Horizon6 with Ryan Edwards. #NashvilleVMUG
Catching up from last session, interest peaked in #vVols. Thanks to @ewams for presentation & hanging around taking questions #NashvilleVMUG
Now in @scott_lowe keynote on docker and vagrant. Hopefully @MacMike can help me keep up. #NashvilleVMUG
So interesting content I haven’t seen before causes me to slow down with the tweets, food brings about a complete stop. #NashvilleVMUG

Taking in some #vVols at #NashvilleVMUG with Eric Wamsley.
“Come to the darkside [iOS], we have better Twitter clients”
@cmmowery told them I was sure we’d be chatting.
@eck79 thanks!
@cmmowery you at the #NashvilleVMUG today?
Anyone have the link for the vcenter6 deployment guide @eck79 referenced? @MacMike, @BitsandGuns, and I all missed it. #NashvilleVMUG
tweets slowed down, was taking in all the vSphere 6 HA discussion. #NashvilleVMUG
well you know, take the VCAP exam now, if @VMwareEducation didn’t take your exam away. :/ #NashvilleVMUG
Will say, find the web client much more usable/friendly after I started using the VMRC.
Always feel bad for the devs of the #vSphere web client, lots of hate headed that way.
Of course we have to talk about the web client. #NashvilleVMUG
New CA functionality in #vSphere6. Less-painful certificate management. #NashvilleVMUG
vGPU for the win! #vSphere6 #NashvilleVMUG
It’s always the #YearOfVDI, also always going to be next year. #NashvilleVMUG.

What’s new in #vSphere6 kicking off the @NashvilleVMUG sessions. Give me some reasons to upgrade! :)
Plug for the awesomeness of #EvalExperience via @MyVMUG Advantage.
Getting ready for the start of @NashvilleVMUG! Exciting day ahead.

Practice run today for Wednesday’s #VDI and #Unidesk presentation at the @NashvilleVMUG. My colleagues suffered to make it better.
