What equipment to buy for VCP homelab

Hello

I'm looking to get my VCP certification. I want to buy two servers entry-level off eBay. I thought HP DL360 G4. I have trouble knowing if they will run, ESX4 or ESX4i. I watched several opteron and dual core XEON servers, Dell etc. but I can't find out if are compatible CPUs of AMD - v. I watched the HCL nothing helps. Even Google does not return with a straight answer.

Any recommendations or suggestions will be appreciated. No Dell or HP salespeople trying to sell G7 please.

Thank you.

Even if the 2 dual core XEON CPUs that were eventually sold through this model (see http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12577_na/12577_na.HTML) support Intel-VT, I don't know if it is possible to enable it in the BIOS (you can check double that). At least the server model is not supported by VMware and HP for ESX (i). I would really consider to get a powerful work/PC post rather than spend money dear DIMM ECC unbuffered and probably other hard disks of the server.

André.

    I was wondering what could be the roadmap for VCP?  Registration is underway for the online courses at VMware mandatory for his exams VCP appearances?

    OR

    Can I go through the material myself and appear for exams directly?

    TIA

    taken from http://mylearn.vmware.com/portals/certification/

    Become a VMware Certified Professional is a simple, three-step process:

    1. participate in a VMware authorized course that is instructor to learn best practices and gain experience practice. Recognized courses are: "install and configure"; "Deploy, secure and analyze; and "Fast Track". If you are a current VCP, there is no prerequisite courses.

    2 practical experience with VMware. People who do not have the hands on experience, it is very difficult to take the exam.

    3. register and pass the certification exam. To register to take the VMware Certified Professional examination contact Pearson VIEW, a third test to www.pearsonvue.com/vmware Center

  • Should what macbook I buy for ios development?

    I'm a software developer want to learn ios for this development, I want to buy a macbook. But I'm in great confusion what macbook should I buy, I was thinking of buying the Macbook Air 13 inch 2015 model with core i5-1.6 ghz, 4 GB of ram and 128 GB of storage. I would like to ask all ios developers there is this configuration will be good for me because I am with money for macbook pro, so please help me guys. Thank you

    I'm not a developer, but I know you're going to need a macbook pro. It's too slow a processor to do what you are wanting to do wayyyyyyyyyyyyy. 1.6 ghz is for normal tasks such as navigation. You certainly need to do a few upgrades to the Air of Macbook 13 inch if you are wanting to do the development. I suggest strongly a faster processor and at least 8 GB of RAM. You will want to get a Macbook you will have more work, because it will have a much shorter life if abuse you it, that is why I suggest the Pro. Have you checked the refurbished Macbook Pro? I think you could find one close to your price range! If this isn't the case, except a little bit of money, it is not too hard!

    Here is a link to the refurbished macbook pro (these go all the same tests as the new mac Cross and have the same guarantee)

    http://www.Apple.com/Shop/Browse/home/specialdeals/Mac/Macbook_pro/13

    There is one that I see for $1 099,00 with the 8 GB of RAM (you save $200 normal price), is only $100 more than the macbook air you're wanting. Totally worth buying the macbook pro and then

  • Should what charger I buy for rocket?

    I'm trying to decide who gets stuck between the two

    http://www.RadioShack.com/product/index.jsp?ProductID=2950615

    http://www.BestBuy.com/site/Dynex%26%23174%3B+-+wall+charger+for+Apple%26%23174%3B+iPod%26%23174%3B+and+iPhone+-+white/8189097.p?ID=1164156736788&skuId=8189097&St=DX-IPAC2b&CP=1&LP=1

    I am looking to buy one from Bestbuy, it also have a usb cable, but I was wondering if it would work well with rocket since it says ipod and iphone.

    Any suggestions?

    The Radio Shack will certainly work.

    It is difficult to say the photo of Best Buy. If it is a wall charger with cord separated the iPod, then you could probably plug your Sansa into the wall charger USB plug.  But if the charger is wired to an iPod connector, so no, NO and no.

    You cannot use iPod with the "rocket" accessories. Power goes through different pins of the connector iPod and an iPod connector can fry the "rocket".

    What you need is something that plugs into the wall and has a standard USB plug - I think it is 5V.  Then you plug the power cord supplied with the Sansa in decision-making and use the Sansa, the "rocket" connector. There are many of them - Kodak, for example.

    You can also check for the Chargers for the Sansa - the same charger will work with Fuze and E200, so search for one or the other. But NO iPOD CHARGERS.

    I did have much luck charging HP cartridges in my laundry room.  It is without doubt a secret handshake I know not [an application that you run to reset the cartridge].  I watched e HP ENVY 5664 all-in-one on ebay.  Many people are selling re-manufactured cartridges.  You don't know when you try.

    HP as a reliable company for me. I go with canon because I had more chance to reload cartridges.

  • Should what battery I buy for Satellite C660?

    I find a lot of batteries online, but my main concern is that. My laptop is Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 (ps1ge-02901fgs).

    I find that the batteries that claim is for c660 but they reffer to as (PA3634U-1BAS), some reffer to as c660d and some reffer to as c660 (PA3634U-1BRS). I am comfused, a bit is not compatible?

    Thank you

    When you remove the original battery, you can see which part number there. In my opinion the best thing is to order the same model of battery. By using this part number, you can try to find an online store where you can order.

    On the market, you can find several batteries offered by some manufacturers of third party (without the Toshiba label thereon). These batteries are cheaper than original batteries by Toshiba. They might be good, but usually, they died very quickly.
    Last year, I ordered this battery for my old A300. The battery was OK, but I couldn't get it up properly. Battery was in place, but at the back, there was a sort of pressure and plastic was out of shape. In any case, it's your decision what to do.

    Compatible batteries for your portable Satellite have following reference numbers:
    PA3757U-1BRS
    PA3787U-1BRS
    PA3817U-1BRS
    PA3818U-1BRS
    PA3820U-1BRS

    Good luck

  • What lenses to buy for the quality and professional film clarity

    I have an EOS Rebel T4i and I was wondering the best option for a lens to get this quality of film that you see in the movies. I saw a lot of videos with DSLR lenses that are of good quality. Or a lens EF lens film, I'd buy some. The last thing I want to do is buy a super lens cheap it does not right, so I ask for options. I am a student $1,500 - $2,000 would be a maximum price for this room. Thank you in advance!

    Best bang for the buck is the Canon 24-105mm f4 that l IS. It is a boon to B & H or Adorama. In addition, sometimes you can find 'white box' deals on them for the range of $700-$750 dollars.  BM is same purpose, the same guarantee. Nine as they are fair trade ins.

    This objective is an ideal place to 'start' to your collection of lenses!

  • Memory should what upgrade I buy for my Satellite Pro A60?

    Hi, I have a Satellite Pro A60 PSA65E, who currently has 192 MB of RAM and 2.8 GHz Celeron processor.

    My problem came when I tried to install Adobe Creative Suite 2 on it, but it would not allow me to do so because he needed 384 MB of RAM to run it. I was wondering if someone could tell me what RAM upgrade is compatible with my machine and if it inserted in another port or if I have to get out the old and replace?

    Thank you

    Hello

    your laptop is 256 MB internal memory, I'm not sure why it shows only 192 MB. This internal memory can be replaced only by a technician. But you also have a currently unused memory slot, in which you can place a maximum of 1024 MB of RAM.

    Here are the modules from Toshiba lets you:
    PC2700 256 MB (PA3311U - 1 M 25)
    PC2700 512 MB (PA3312U - 1 M 51)
    1024MO PC2700 (PA3313U-1M1G)
