The President’s Daily Brief (PDB), sometimes incorrectly referred to as the President’s Daily Briefing or the President’s Daily Bulletin, is a top secret document produced each morning for the President of the United States.
My Top Secret brief is similar to the PDB It is intended to provide you with new intelligence warranting attention, and analysis of sensitive situations.
It will not be issued daily and it won’t relate to national security – it will however contain important and useful information.
Brief Bio – Began a virtualization practice more than 4 years with Expert Server Group. Helped start several VMUG’s (Vmware User Group) across the United States and is recognized as having one of the largest , if not the largest, virtualization client bases in the US (Vmware, Platespin, VizionCore)
8/31 Deadline for Maintenance Renewal
What you should know now – urgent action is required. If your Vmware ESX 2.x licences are not currently covered by maintenance (SnS – Gold or Platinum), it is important that you have coverage by the end of this month. ESX 2.x licences that are covered will receive free upgrades to Vi3 Standard Edition. If you don’t have coverage by 8/31, you will not be able to renew your maintenance and you won’t be eligible for the free upgrade to Vi3 Standard Edition.
8/30 Update – Good news, Vmware is not going to enforce this 8/31 deadline
