RHCS Cluster Fencing With vSphere/vCenter 5.5

Red Hat's latest KB list only up to vSphere 5.1 in term of cluster fencing support. (as of this blog was written)

As customer's requirement,  I have tested cluster fencing on RHEL6.3 with vSphere 5.5 environment.

Guess what!

'fence_vmware_soap' works perfectly with vSphere 5.5. 

I have inform people from Red Hat so that they can speed up the process of adding vSphere5.5 into support matrix.

Happy Clustering!

Best SSH Client On Windows OS

One of my customers suggested me to try using MobaXterm when he saw me using Putty,    WinSCP and Xming server on Windows OS.  I gave it a try and have to admit that MobaXterm seems to be  the best utility for remote administration. 

Why? Here are some highlighted features that makes my life way easier than before. 

- Integrated sftp client and Xserver for SSH
- Tabbed terminal Windows
- Multi-exec mode (similar to clustered SSH)
- Credential saving
- Easier & neater copy & paste in terminal
- All-in-one (ssh/telnet/rdp/vnc/serial console and etc...)

Try out by yourself for complete list of features.  You can download it free from below site.
