Silicon Valley VMUG – April 11th

imageMy family and I are relocating ourselves to California, with the start of our new lives there will be a new VMUG, I have to say the London VMUG has set the standards pretty high so I can not wait to see what my new local VMUG will be like.

My new local VMUG will be of course the Silicon Valley VMUG (SVVMUG), and I have to say with the below Agenda its looking pretty darn good so far !

The SVVMUG is on April 11th and details are below, I have of course put myself down to present, this time I will be presenting with a well known VMware Community member, fellow member of VMware Technical Marketing and all round fantastic guy, Mr. William Lam, make sure you check out his blog (I’m sure you do already).

Together we will be presenting a vSphere CLI Overview.

vSphere CLI Overview

In this presentation William and I will give a good overview with where we are in vSphere 5, if your getting your ESXCLI’s mixed up with your PowerCLI’s or if you are bored of doing the same manual tasks each day then make sure you attend our presentation to get a good overview of what is available to help you automate your life!

We will also be sticking around for the rest of the VMUG (and hopefully SVVMUG has a vBeers ?) so make sure you come up and say Hi and have a chat to us. Being a local for only a week at that time I would love to meet as many people as possible !
