8thNew UBER Model : UBER VNX (NFS) v1
I am crazy heads down on a massive EMC World 2011 project right now. One bad side effect is I have not had time to keep up with the stuff I normally do on the side for EMC. This includes updates to the UBER VSAs (virtual storage appliances). I did get one *internal* one done recently but nothing for my community. Yet, almost a month ago, one of the teams behind the EMC VNX released a VSA for it. I helped do some testing and built an UBER version but did not have time to finish testing and bug fixing. The good news is I got my head enough above water on my main projects to dedicate some time today to squash the last big bug and finish this VSA. So I present for your free (unsupported) use: the EMC UBER VNX (CIFS/NFS) VSA v1. Details: First off, NFS/CIFS only. Long story on this but this VSA only has this enabled.

1stUBERShell : Ninja Scripting
Every time I release a tool or write a blog post there is a voice in the back of my head saying, “Dude, no one is going to like this”. I think this is the first time that voice never said a word. From the beginning it was more of a question of how to make this work the way I wanted. And when I started to be able to play with it myself, I was blown away with how lucky I got in the final product.
