Daily Research Report For FYPJ @ 15 March 2011

Had to research on the versions of data center. What i did today was on version 1.0,
my research was not fruitful as "Version 1.0" is too wide and could not be exactly found over the web.
Hence i still could not get a full idea of what is it about, but instead of continuing on the same key word.

i tried to search for the history, the 1st data center, thinking that maybe version 1.0 maybe as the same as saying the traditional or old data center. but i was taught it only applies to the mainframe time.
so that is why my findings for today were wasted.
Probably i will continue researching about it tomorrow.

Daily research on Cisco solutions 15/03/2011

Week 2 day 2

I had successfully installed VMware ESXi on VMware Workstation and had use VMware vSphere client to login and to create a Virtual Machine(Window Xp). After creating a Virual Machine in ESXi, i have some basic understanding of using a vSphere client to create and control a ESXi host and vCentre Server to control multiple ESXi host, unfortunately vCentre Server is not free so i did not had a chance to try it out

Some problem i encounter, school computer had download and architecture restriction (cannot use x64), there for i realize i can't install ESXi on school computer. school network also had bandwidth limit resulted inaccessible of photoshop video tutorial
