Datacore Update with Emulex 12000 HBA might end up in BSOD

Two year old bug still not fixed

Today I’ve updated a Datacore-Cluster from SanSymphony10 PSP6 U1 to PSP6 U4. In the past we had issues with updating DataCore-Emulex drivers during the update process.

Veeam Endpoint Backup heißt jetzt Veeam Agent for Windows 2.0

VeeamON2017 – Goodbye New Orleans

See you in Chicago

Thank you all who attended the convention in NOLA for the great time. Kudos to all members of the Veeam Team who helped making this event possible.

What a great experience to come together with all you Veeam geeks. In the last 3 days we’ve had a good time with all of you. Especially with the group from Germany, Austria, France, the US and Australia (no worries about the beer on my shoes, mate!) 😉

The next VeeamON will be held in Chicago between May 12th and May 17th 2018. Hope to see you there again.

VeeamON2017 – Social Networking

The schedule of presentations and breakout sessions is tight. So there is not much time to meet with other visitors in the breaks. But there’s usually a social program in the evening to get in contact with others. Either in the Expo-Area or at After-Show partys. Continue reading “VeeamON2017 – Social Networking”
