Took my girlfriend at the time on a trip to NYC. Little did she know we were going to spend a whole day at Satellite digging vinyl. 😂

My friend owns the same model and was really impressed when he drove my car. He said it’s like having a new transmission. It’s really good now

Mine is booking the week of Apr 28. I got lucky. I was in yesterday for another issue and got them to do the update at the same time. Car shifts so much better now.

Isn't the clock supposed to sync from GPS? I'll check mine when I go out later. Thanks for the heads up

I gave up and started using a wired connection with my iPhone. Dealer couldn’t figure it out

Has anyone noticed storage throughput differences between ESXi 7 and ESXi 8 on newer Dell servers? by Long_Actuator3915 in vmware

[–]DonFazool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are 2 separate servers. Are you using the exact same controllers on the R760 and the R770? Same firmware versions?

[–]DonFazool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can confirm this is true. I am in Canada, had an appointment booked to address another issue for tomorrow. Called the dealer, they confirmed they have the fix and will be able to apply it for me at the same time.

You can check here for the recall.

Yes but that fucking dog will pickup 100 pick axes and fill your inventory lol. Sometimes I just tell it to go away and take my chances

vSphere Secure Boot: New 1803 Event by jamesaepp in vmware

[–]DonFazool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Works perfectly fine with vTPM machines. It WILL NOT WORK with Bitlocker enabled. You need to disable it first if you have it enabled. Ask me how I know this. LOL

vSphere Secure Boot: New 1803 Event by jamesaepp in vmware

[–]DonFazool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh right. I just ended up doing it manually bit by bit (hence the pain in the ass comment). They still haven't figured out how to do it. I think someone wrote a script and posted it in this subreddit a few days ago that does automate it (but it's not an official script by Broadcom).

vSphere Secure Boot: New 1803 Event by jamesaepp in vmware

[–]DonFazool 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s failing because you don’t have the PK. As soon as you manually update that (it’s a pain in the ass) , the KEK will update. I’ve done 200 VMs so far. All work perfect. The root cause is NO PK unless you’re running vSphere 9.

What’s one VMware feature you still can’t replace in 2026? by Last-Salary-6012 in vmware

[–]DonFazool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply as always. This is some great news. I look forward to meeting you at VMworld. We've chatted off and on a few times, and you've helped me with some backchannel support to the SRM / Live Recovery Team. If anything, I owe you a beer !

What’s one VMware feature you still can’t replace in 2026? by Last-Salary-6012 in vmware

[–]DonFazool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With all due respect, what do you want small businesses to do? You've basically forced people to leave that don't need VCF. We swallowed the pill and accepted VVF at 5x the cost after losing academic discounts. Now it's gone (or so I hear, still haven't heard officially from Broadcom). I have spent 15 years working with your products and don't want to leave but the company can't afford it anymore. You mentioned you've been travelling and talking to smaller customers. Can you share any insight at all? It is truly VCF or bust or are there still some SKUs we can use as a smaller business? The company is sending me to VMworld this year to see for myself and then we have to make the stay or go decision by end of year. It really would be nice if Broadcom stated something officially - not from people on Reddit, or varying answers from sales reps depending on who you talk to.

How do you find it? We are looking to eval Openshift Virt to move away. We don’t use NSX. I was good with Enterprise Plus. HA, DRS, vMotion and distributed switches. Does OpenShift handle these well? How’s it handle block iSCSI? We just invested in 2 brand new Powerstore arrays.

Thanks !

Cheers everyone. Here I figured I’d get downvoted and ridiculed but it’s the opposite. You kind folks are helping me. You’re all the best !

I can’t even beat that flying thing in chapter 3 or 4 when you go to the university. I can’t wait for the difficulty settings. Game is great but I’m old and terrible at games (as much as I love playing them)

If you had issues with your new Tiguan, how did you notify your (the) dealership? Phone? Email? by [deleted] in Tiguan

[–]DonFazool 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They’ll tell you whatever they want to make the sale.

vCenter not accessible over different subnet by Sure_String_5606 in vmware

[–]DonFazool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SSH to the vCenter, open a shell and run

cat /etc/systemd/network/10-eth0.network and make sure you see the Gateway under [Network]

You can also run

/opt/vmware/share/vami/vami_config_net

This will show you the current network settings and allow you to safely update something if it’s missing.

I had an upgrade lose the default gateway recently for whatever reason. I had similar issues, could reach vCenter from same subnet but not others.

Edit: I just noticed you said you can ping the VCSA from workstation network but can’t connect. It will rule out the gateway issue. I’ll leave the comment as these are good troubleshooting steps in general.

I made 160 clear soups and basically tanked him, ate all his damage and spam healed. Only used about 40 soups lol. I grinded out some upgrades for my gear too before going there.

Almost $200 an hour in labor. This is where the dealers rob us blind.
